Deception...
31/05/10 11:26
There is a very delicate line between deception and truth. It takes discernment and maturity of the Spirit to find our way through the web of deceit. There have been those from the very first beginnings of the church, who have sought to subvert the message of Messiah and twist scripture to their own advantage.
We should not be surprised that this very thing continues to this day and false doctrine, unsound reasoning and outright deception and lies are everywhere.
Messiah said when He returns, would He would really find faith on the earth. That is something that we better think about very seriously and we had better be very careful about where our faith lies. We HAVE to take doctrine from the scriptures and not bring doctrine to the scriptures to try and make it fit. Everything that we need for salvation and to enter the Kingdom of God has been provided for us in the word of the Father. It IS the Spirit, that guides us into all truth. We better learn to rely on that Spirit right now!
1 Timothy 4:1-3
Now the Spirit expressly says that in latter times some will depart from the faith, giving heed to deceiving spirits and doctrines of demons, 2 speaking lies in hypocrisy, having their own conscience seared with a hot iron, 3 forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from foods which God created to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and know the truth.
Blessings to you all...
