Sin Cloaked in Good

When we grow up we borrow our values from our parents, family, friends and society. We view what is good or bad based on our values. Societal morality though trying to be inherently good, has been taken over by the devil so that he portray something that is evil as being good in society. That is why somethings that are banished in the scriptures is viewed by our society as being good, as the humane thing to do. Our ´enlightenment´ just as Paul said in 1 Timothy 6:20-21, are causing us to wander away from faith.

Satan´s guile nature is evident in how he pretends to be the light (that which was taken from him after he fell) by cloaking evil in good so as to deceive those souls genuinely seeking the Lord away from Him. Paul tells us of this and why there are false prophets in 2 Corinthians 11:14-15, 'And no wonder, for Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light. It is not surprising, then, if his servants masquerade as servants of righteousness. Their end will be what their actions deserve.'

But all hope is not lost as we have the guide by which all who profess to preach and prophesy must abide by. All religion aside, if the doctrine they preach is in any way inconsistent with the scriptures, then be very wary. God is He who He is, he will never change as far as sin is concerned, so let no one misguide you that ´He will understand that this are difficult times and cut you some slack´. Satan uses our ignorance against us, be informed in the scriptures because that is the self revelation of Christ and God to us.

So are you a religious zealot focused on keeping church practices or are you a follower of Christ. If you feel the need to share about Him, I am open.
