Deception 3

Eph 5:6 Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience.

I can't help but think of this verse whenever there is a big election. The politicians are all looking for some 30 second sound bite that will wind up on the evening news and they give speeches that sound really good. The problem is that when it is all over with we have no idea what they are saying.

Today even some preachers say that they do not believe that the Bible means what it says. If that is true I wonder why they are preaching in the first place and I wonder what are they preaching.

Sermons with no scriptural backing to them are empty. They are deceptive. They mean nothing, yet, many people are flocking to hear sweet sounding words because they don't convict them of the sin in their lives. Little do they know that they are bringing the wrath of God down on themselves.

Don't let Satan deceive you with vain words.
