"Let
him that is taught in the word communicate unto him that teacheth in all good
things. (7) Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth,
that shall he also reap." Galatians 6:6 – 7
Deception is an easy word; deception comes from Satan, and
it is empowered from Satan. John 8:44
“Ye are of your father the devil, and
the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and
abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a
lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.”
People, even a lot of Christians are deceived because people allow their minds
to stray into the thinking of the world. The world is blinded from God and His
teaching, they are always searching for ways to glory and honor themselves, to
be as good, as powerful, as an equal with God, and to do without God. Genesis
3:5 “For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall
be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.” Satan deceived
Eve to eat of the forbidden fruit by telling her she would be as a god. People
forget that this world system was and is built on deception, “But evil men
and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.” 2
Timothy 3:13 Deception for Christians is anything that distracts a believer
from God and His teachings. God is Truth, His word is Truth, which means His
teachings are Truth. Almost nothing else is to be treated as truth, especially
anything that give a single hint of opposition to the bible. Those that are
taught God’s truth should “communicate” to others that truth. God does not
teach us to be shy with His word, but to share it. His word must be a pillar in
our hearts, and we must all work to make it a pillar in other hearts. The truth
keeps us from being deceived, if God’s word is a pillar in your heart, you will
not be deceived. People share thoughts, the world that is controlled by Satan
is controlled by deceives. Everywhere you look, you watch, you read, even
places of education are empowered by Satan to deceive minds everywhere. Their
work is to brainwash evil into depraved minds, even minds as young as 5 years
old and younger. Today the deceivers are convincing, through brainwashing that
evil is good, that there is no evil except in the churches and in the bible. “Who
changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature
more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.” Romans 1:25 This
deception streams down from “counterfeit churches” – counterfeit Christians –
from our government – through our education system – through our news media –
through written media – and down to casual conversation. All this is designed
by Satan to brainwash peoples minds away from God and the Truth of the scriptures
to deception. This deception is everywhere except the true churches which are
pillars and ground of Truth, and those Christians that “communicate unto him
that teacheth in all good things.”
This is why the churches and individual membership are so
important in this world, we are the spreaders of the “good news”. We must keep
ourselves from being beat down by Satan swinging his bat of deception. We must
remain the light in the world shinning bright and refusing to be deemed by
Satan’s lies or half-truths. We must remember to “…press toward the mark for
the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.” Philippians 3:14 Our
prize, that is our reward from Jesus Christ in eternity, accomplished only by sowing
the truth of God’s word as we learn it in church. Being good and faithful servants
of God. Not allowing ourselves to be deceived by Satan and the world, but
coming out and being separate, by fighting deception, by fighting Satan even if
it cost us everything in this world, even our life. If your prize is in this
world, you are already deceived and will allow sin over truth to rule your
mind. 1 Corinthians 3:13 - 15 "Every man's work shall be made manifest:
for the day shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire; and the
fire shall try every man's work of what sort it is. (14) If any man's work
abide which he hath built thereupon, he shall receive a reward. (15) If any
man's work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he himself shall be
saved; yet so as by fire." Deception
is easy because it is natural to people, lying, cheating, stealing, just sin in
all forms are natural to people. “Their throat is an open sepulchre; with
their tongues they have used deceit; the poison of asps is under
their lips:” Romans 3:13 Beware my beloved Christian, Satan has the ability
to make a lie look like a truth. Beware and be not deceived! “Take heed to
yourselves, that your heart be not deceived, and ye turn aside, and serve other
gods, and worship them;” Deuteronomy 11:16
