Believe Anything?


"'If a man walking after wind and faleshood had told lies and said, 'I will speak out to you concerning wine and liquor.' he would be spokesman to this people.'" Micah 2:11

"For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but wanting to have their ears tickled, they will accumulate for themselves teachers in accordance to their own desires, and will turn away their ears from the truth, and will turn aside to myths.  But you, be sober in all things, endure hardship, do the work of an evangelist, fulfil your ministry." II Timothy 4:4

"And for this reason God will send upon them a deluding influence so that they might believe what is false, in order that they all may be judged who did not believe the truth, but took pleasure in wickedness." II Thessalonians 2:11

"Men teach their teachers how they wish to be mistaught, and receive the echo of their wishes as the voice of God." Barnes Notes

Take care with love, especially His!  Your servant and friend in Christ, Darlene
