8 Ways A Believer Is Deceived

The Eight Ways A Believer Is Deceived
By Mary Lindow

1. James 1:23 -
For if you listen to the word and don’t obey, it is like glancing at your face in a mirror.

2. 1 John 1:8 -
If we claim we have no sin, we are only fooling ourselves and not living in the truth.

3. Gal. 6:3 -
If any of you think you are something when you are nothing, you deceive yourselves.

4. 1 Corin. 3:18
Stop deceiving yourselves. If you think you are wise by this world’s standards, you need to become a fool to be truly wise.

5. James 1:26 –
If you claim to be religious but don’t control your tongue, you are fooling yourself, and your religion is worthless.

6. Gal.6:7 -
Don’t be misled—you cannot mock the justice of God. You will always harvest what you plant.

7. 1 Corin. 6:9-10
Don’t you realize that those who do wrong will not inherit the Kingdom of God? Don’t fool yourselves. Those who indulge in sexual sin, or who worship idols, or commit adultery, or are male prostitutes, or practice homosexuality, 10 or are thieves, or greedy people, or drunkards, or are abusive, or cheat people—none of these will inherit the Kingdom of God.

8. 1 Corin. 15:33
Don’t be fooled by those who say such things, for “bad company corrupts good character.”

Lord,

We need your Grace daily to keep us and guide us in your truth. Help us!
