WICKED WAYS
Today's reading: 2 Thessalonians

"He will use every kind of wicked deception to fool those who are on their way to destruction because they refuse to believe the truth that would save them." 2 Thessalonians 2:10 NLT

I've seen satan do it. You've seen satan do it.

He lies.

But not only does he lie, he wraps the lie so elegantly in half-truths (more lies) that it looks believable.

For example...

...I'm only living with him because of the kids. A piece of paper doesn't really matter.
...They deserve rights, too. They are in love, after all.
...They knew exactly what they were doing. I'm mad--and I have good reason to be.
...I'll just let them decide for themselves when they are older. I'll not push religion on them at this young age.
...Let them practice their own beliefs, we all have that right. Maybe they're right, too.

Little things that distract us from the truth. Ideas that take our focus off of 'thus saith the Word of the Lord'. Wicked ways that blind us, tie us up and will eventually send us to hell.

Watch out for satan!
