“Lies bring Death”        

 Genesis 3:4-5

“You won't die!” the serpent hissed.  “God knows that your

eyes will be opened when you eat it.  You will become just

like God, knowing everything, both good and evil.”  (NLT)

     This is the oldest recorded lie in the history of mankind.  When this lie was whispered to the first man and woman they fell for it, hook, line, and sinker, and it changed the course of time for mankind.  Being cursed with sin, Adam and Eve and their descendants could no longer live in the presence of their Holy God and they were banned from the Garden of Eden. Although it is well within God's sovereign power to make us worship and love Him, He chose to create us with a free will to choose to love and follow His ways or not.  But because of God's great love, mercy, and grace, He had a plan that would bring us back in His presence. Because of the blood of Jesus, we can be cleansed of our sins and be in God's presence once again.  And then one day,  we can physically live with our Creator, Savior and King in a new Heaven on Earth with a glorified body that will never again be exposed to evil and sin and its power to enslave and decay—we will be God's holy people and He will be our Holy God forevermore.

     But  in this life we must continue to be on our guard, because the lies of the devil are still lurking in the darkness, ready to deceive, destroy, and kill our souls. It still amazes me that the Lord would forgive and wipe our slates clean after all the wicked things we do and think. Oh the patience God has while watching us indulge in the evil that is totally disgusting to Him, and yet He is so full of mercy and grace and love in spite of our wicked ways.  Our Lord God and Savior has the power to save any life no matter how wicked or evil it is.  He not only has the power but He has the love to save as many of us as He can. Never doubt the love of God my friends; for it can save you no matter what you have done.  Jesus is calling you softly with whispers of Hope and nudges of love.

                                        A Whisper of Hope  

Listen closely, dear child...for My whispers of hope.  They can bring you out of the cold and into My warm embrace.  I have vowed to save My children bring My vengeance against the the wicked and evil.  Come close and I will draw you near to Me—forevermore!

2 Thessalonians 2:9-10

This evil man will come to do the work of Satan with counterfeit power and

signs and miracles.  He will use every kind of wicked deception to fool those

who are on their way to destruction because they refuse to believe the Truth

that would save them.  (NLT)

             A false witness will not go unpunished,

               and he who speaks lies shall perish.
