Don't Let Yourself Be Fooled

 “There are two ways to be fooled. One is to believe what isn't true; the other is to refuse to believe what is true.” Soren Kierkegaard


I have seen Soren Kierkegaard's above utterance up close and personal lately. It's maddening to see deception -- or willful ignorance -- in action; however, the Lord Jesus did tell us that even some of "the very elect" would be deceived. I can imagine it broke Jesus' heart to say these words of truth.

Thankfully, God is in control. Sadly, those giving in to deception just might find themselves being in attendance in what is described in Matthew 7:21-23. This is the passage where pseudo believers find themselves rejected in the worse kind of way. I wrote about this in Chapter 3 of Rock Solid Living In A Quicksand World -Rewind, and in the previous book with a similar name. Yes, there are those who claim to know Jesus, but they follow their own foolish ways. They follow what Jesus calls "False Prophets!" They allow those around them to influence them in ways contrary to right way living! And because they willfully make choices contrary to God's will, they WILL be shocked at how God speaks to them on that day when we ALL will give account for our lives.

This is not what the Lord wants for you: He has given you everything you need to live a complete and full life. He has given you clear guidance of right and wrong in the Ten Commandments. He fulfills this law of His in Jesus and in Jesus' teachings, especially the teachings of "The Sermon on The Mount." God instructs you on how to have God's law written on your heart and put it in your brain. God has done everything to tell you how to choose what is right.

I know I sound like I keep beating my own drum, but Rock Solid Living In A Quicksand World - Rewind gives Jesus guidance to the 21st Century on how to walk the walk of God in the way God wants it walked in our day. In this book, God provides you with The Stepping Stones For Victorious Christ Centered Living. Go to www.rock-solid-living.com click on the menu item "Ordering Rock-Solid Books, choose your book store, and then the type book you want ... hard copy, soft copy or ebook.

If you read this book prayerfully, as the present election unfolds, the Lord will speak clearly to you about how you need to be casting you ballot. And you will know what is right based on the actions of the people running. And I am convinced, as an Independent, who is a Christ Follower, your choices may very well have eternal consequences.
