Daily Devotional - October 11They'll Fall For Anything"Then Jesus said to those Jews who believed him,'If you abide in my Word, you are my disciples indeed.And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.'"John 8:31-32And the converse is also true: if one does NOT abide in him, he will NOT know the truth.HOW does one come to know the truth?Believers who read God's Word daily will tell you that the Lord never stops revealing truth. You can read the Bible for 40 years, and you'll still come across revelation that you had never "seen" before, because God continually reveals truths as you continue in his Word. It is forever new.The opposite is also true. A person who does not continuously feed in the Word of God will NOT know the truth. These are those who will fall for false doctrines that SOUND GOOD.There are many preaching false doctrines today and even Christians are falling for them because those men are preaching what they want to hear - how they can be healthy, wealthy and happy. They deceive many because they insert Scripture references, which of course makes them SOUND legitimate. But these con-men never preach on sin, repentance, hell, or the cross we are to pick up daily. Their followers only want to hear what is "uplifting.""For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine,but according to their own desires, because they have itching ears,they will heap up for themselves teachers;and they will turn their ears AWAY FROM THE TRUTH,and be turned aside to fables."2 Timothy 4:3-4From:Along Emaus Roadhttp://alongemausrd.blogspot.com/
