Buying Into Lies….

As believers we cannot buy into the lies that society tries to pass off as truth. All the arguments for, justifications for, and implied acceptances are not to be incorporated into our beliefs. Any thing that goes against God, that violates His character, are to be shunned away. God doesn’t change. If it’s listed in the OT and the NT, then it’s clear that it’s not a practice acceptable to God. If you’re a non-believer, I guess anything goes for you. But if you are a believer, you can’t be a pretender as well (they can’t co-exist). Believers follow God, by trusting Him, taking Him at His Word. What the world wants is for us to accept them and any behaviors they participate in. Believers know that God has a plan, a way of doing things; it’s our way to live. No matter how bad someone wants you to accept their behavior, we must stand firm to what God says it right, and beneficial to our own good. Evil is not something we are to accept. Once we do, we break the bond with our Creator, and consequences follow. If you rejoice in doing evil, you are only pretending when you call God your father.

15 “What right do My beloved people have to come to My Temple, when they have done so many immoral things? Can their vows and sacrifices prevent their destruction? They actually rejoice in doing evil! Jeremiah 11:15

6 Even your brothers, members of your own family, have turned against you. They plot and raise complaints against you. Do not trust them, no matter how pleasantly they speak. Jeremiah 12:6
