Distracted or Deceived?

What is the greatest ploy against Believers?

If you said Sin, or Transgressions, you’re actually wrong. The demons know that we have Holy Arbitration on our side. Jesus Himself is our propitiation, Judge AND arbiter. Lucifer knows we can ask forgiveness, to be Forgiven, because we are no longer Fallen. We are New Creatures; We are now freed from the Law of Sin and Death by the blood of Jesus Christ Himself.

So what is it? What would actually work against Christians to keep us from seeing more people become Christians, from fulfilling the Spirit of the.the Law of Christ? Do you know the answer? Well, how about this: What is God’s Greatest Commission? To preach THE Gospel to everyone, right? And we start with our own families, working our way out from there.

But we have a problem… WE LIVE HERE.

Every day, advertising all around the world, in every nation, tells us how we should live, what we should want, where we should be, and how we should act. Of course, they do that to sell Their products, to make money. WELL, yes, at least that’s what they think they’re doing. But could it be they are,  themselves, being manipulated? And, if they are being deceived into doing someone else’s bidding, what would be the purpose of that influence against The Found? After all, you can’t make someone lose their Salvation; Once you’ve trusted in Jesus as the one to save you, NO ONE can change that. You’re no longer trusting in anything you do, or say, but in Him Who paid THE Price for your Sin: So YOU are rescued, PERMANENTLY. So other than the fact that the Devil wants to keep the Lost from being saved, what would be the purpose against Believers for all that single-minded advertising? Well, have you ever noticed THE theme in nearly every commercial advertisement? There always seems to be, pardon the pun, a “fundamental” message. Have you picked up on it yet Christian? And are advertisers the only ones doing that, “preaching” that core “doxology”? Well, no, actually. Every single “religion”, every single ideology, every single news station puts out the same core message. Yeah sure, they couch it in different terminology, and put bells and whistles on it, give it a fresh new look, but THE rotten, evil message is still there. Did you catch it yet?

Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain…

In the video I posted, a well-known Hollywood actor, on his talk show, interviews Elon Musk, the CEO/founder/co-founder of such well known corporate names as SpaceX and Tesla, among others. And the subject of this particular conversation with Elon is artificial intelligence, A.I., and what we should fear about it. The talk gets philosophical very quickly, even ludacris in places, but there is an underlying theme there as well.You can see it seething all around them, smell ut almost…

P R I D E

As a Believer, when you listen to this interview, several subjects from Scripture can come to mind. The differences between demons and angels, for instance. Do you know the difference between a demon and an angel? They are both super-intelligent, both super-powerful. But the difference between them is Pride. Every advertising and worldly conversation revolves around PRIDE. And even when they acknowledge that there seems to be someone behind the things that they see going wrong they still have the same old line, “Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain, just keep buying stuff as if everything is fine. Just keep living like nothing is wrong. JUST keep believing that you would not answer to God for everything you have ever thought, said and done. After all, you believe in you. YOU are all that matters”

The cult of self has become pervasive.

The theme of the Deception used by those who hate God is prevalent, persistent, PERVASIVE. THE Lie that is disseminated everywhere you look, everywhere you hear conversation- IS EVEN in some places claiming to be Churches! That first LIE, spoken for the first time ever in the Garden of Eden, THE Lie that causes mankind to doubt God, to wonder about what He really wants, even to question His existence, all so they can have what they DESERVE, their depravity in any form possible, with as little guilt as they can manage, as God warned would happen.

Believing themselves to be wise they became fools…

Believing THE LIE they deceive themselves into thinking they’re getting what they REALLY wanted all along. Many would rather believe in Aliens, life being seeded by Little Green, or Grey, men from other universes, than trust in a Loving God, which they are SO sure is not Loving. You can see it in Elon’s face. It’s so twisted and sad he gets confused when he speaks…

I WANT YOU TO KNOW, IF YOU WANT TO HAVE THOSE UNSPOKEN QUESTIONS YOU WERE ASKING ANSWERED, WITHOUT ANY NONSENSE, NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH, I’M AVAILABLE.

Pride is what plays as THE temptation to lure man into rebellion against God. It’s always what we want next that is used to plant doubt about God in men’s hearts. And we know that works with the Lost, but why Christians?

Well, first to make you suffer the results. When you pull yourself out from under the protection of God you suffer the consequences, always.  But that is merely some minor setbacks for the Believer Because, the Spirit of God is always ready, there to correct you; It’s God that keeps you after all. Secondly it’s to make you as useless as he can. Of course this is only temporary, again. So, No, I’m pretty sure the actual reason is to keep as many from being saved as possible. Honestly. Satan has deceived himself into thinking he can win; He Is His own worst enemy, before he’s anyone else’s: His own pride is his downfall.

So don’t be afraid of the many varieties of the same message that you keep hearing, it couldn’t touch you any more than anything else can. Don’t let yourself get distracted for even a little bit: You’ll have an eternity to think about it.

But then again probably not, we will be too busy rejoicing. 😉

So are you deceived or merely distracted?
