I'm not here to condemned you, but the bloke of your youtube, some of what they were saying, has merit UNTIL He said, we don't need God = spirit of the "other side", NOW trumpeting, LOUD and CLEAR.

Wotsup I think you and I can find agreement that religion has done tremendous harm in misleading mankind, but none of that is God's doing.... he merely allowed it.
(Revelation 12:9) So down the great dragon was hurled, the original serpent, the one called Devil and Satan, who is misleading the entire inhabited earth; he was hurled down to the earth, and his angels were hurled down with him.
The hurling of Satan to the earth was the first action taken by the newly installed king, Christ Jesus.
(Revelation 12:10) I heard a loud voice in heaven say: “Now have come to pass the salvation and the power and the Kingdom of our God and the authority of his Christ, because the accuser of our brothers has been hurled down, who accuses them day and night before our God!
The effect of Satan being confined to the earth has been "woe for the earth."
(Revelation 12:12) On this account be glad, you heavens and you who reside in them! Woe for the earth and for the sea, because the Devil has come down to you, having great anger, knowing that he has a short period of time.”
That Satan knows "he has a short period of time” indicates this took place in recent times. How can we identify WHEN it happened? His apostles were very interested in the WHEN question.
(Matthew 24:3) While he was sitting on the Mount of Olives, the disciples approached him privately, saying: “Tell us, when will these things be, and what will be the sign of your presence and of the conclusion of the system of things?”
Here is what Jesus pointed to.
(Matthew 24:6, 7) You are going to hear of wars and reports of wars. See that you are not alarmed, for these things must take place, but the end is not yet. 7 “For nation will rise against nation and kingdom against kingdom, and there will be food shortages and earthquakes in one place after another.
The 2 massive wars of last century were "woe for the earth" brought about by Satan but something else had to happen first. - Mark 13:10
The end was only to come when the "good news of the Kingdom" was preached to God's satisfaction.
(Matthew 24:14) And this good news of the Kingdom will be preached in all the inhabited earth for a witness to all the nations, and then the end will come.
That this is now being done on an unprecedented scale indicates the end of Satan's system is imminent.
That indeed is "good news"!
