 "question": "Name nine denials the Bible says will characterize the end times.",
 "answer": "As the day of his destruction draws nearer, Satan steps up his deceptive activity, and the Bible lists at least nine denials he will foster in the last days. First is the denial of God. Second, the denial of Christ. Third, the denial of Christ's return. Fourth, the denial of the faith. Fifth, the denial of sound doctrine. Sixth, the denial of biblical separation. Seventh, the denial of Christian liberty. Eighth, the denial of true spirituality. And ninth, the denial of spiritual authority. Each one tears down a pillar of the truth, and together they mark the apostasy that characterizes the end times.",
