God said in the end times to let no one deceive you (2 Thess. 2:3). Yet most of the world is now being deceived. God said in the end times people would not listen to, or endure sound doctrine. They would rather gather around teachers who support their desires. They will turn away from the truth, and turn aside to myths (2 Tim. 4:3-4).
One present day myth is that technology is a friend upon which we can depend. Left in the hands of a powerful few, the advance of this technological revolution, has the ability to both enslave, and kill. Unless the world wakes up to this great deception, we, and our future generations, will suffer great wrath and sorrow. Just as God foretold in the book of Daniel, Ezekiel, and Revelation.

She stopped to get gas, another one of his friends drove up beside her, getting gas too, all the while looking straight into her eyes, smiling a wide cheshire cat grin. She recalled the cell phone conversation with a close girl friend, outlining where she would be going and when. She thought to herself, he has been listening to my calls!
Then the messages began. Wrong calls that included tidbits of information she had just said to her friend on the cell phone, or describing how nice the color blue and green looks when worn together. There she was sitting with her cell phone beside her, dressed in a cute blue and green tank top and blue jeans all in full view of her cell phone camera which sat pointed right beside her. She changed her cell phone and number, and the stalking began all over again.

Never leave your cell phone unattended. In order to stay safe, take the battery out of your cell phone when not in use, just powering it down will not reduce the problem.

Your cell phone can be used as a surveillance tool to harm and oppress you. This is the world in which we live. Ignoring or dismissing the problem, does not mean one day it can not happen to you.
Safety is a virtue, not a vice!
