Ephesians 4:14 KJV
14 That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive;
As we grow in Christ, Paul is admonishing and warning not to be as children who are easily swayed in their beliefs.
There are wolves in sheep's clothing, false brethren, and false prophets who appear to be looking out for your good and come as an angel of light, but if they are causing you to question the doctrines of holiness and separation from the world, that is the same serpent spirit which beguiled Eve in the Garden of Eden.
"Did God really say....?"
"Is it really wrong to....?"
"That's not really a heaven of hell issue."
"We need to appear more relevant."
"There's nothing wrong with that."
Those are serpent lies sent to beguile and deceive. If the Bible says it's wrong, it is wrong no matter how much that person may sweetly convince you that it's not.
Guard your heart and try the spirits to see if they are of God. A person sweetly talking and even appearing to reason away holiness and separation from the world convincingly is not from God - those are doctrines of devils subtly sent to blur the lines between holiness and worldliness with cunning craftiness.
They are walking in the vanity of their own mind, devoid of truth and appropriateness. There is blindness on their heart. They are trying to hold onto the world while reaching for God in attempts to blend the two, but all you get in the end is strange fire that is displeasing to God. He is a Holy God and requires holiness from His people!
You may think I'm being a little strong. If I am, it's because the spirit of deception is running rampant and doctrines of devils are subtly deceiving and drawing away souls from sound doctrine. They are being enticed by the desires of their flesh.
We're too close to the end to lose out now!
We're too close to the end to fail Him now!
Don't be deceived! 💔🙏
