Jude 4 "For certain men whose condemnation was written about long ago have secretly slipped in among you. They are godless men, who change the grace of our God into a license for immorality and deny Jesus Christ our only Sovereign and Lord."
Dear Lord, thank You for the gift of discernment . Through Your Spirit, You allow us/ me to KNOW the truth and be able to see the lies told by godless men and women in our churches, as they deceive baby believers or those who have gone backwards in their faith because they have not kept up with the truth and are living more like the world than a Christian. I can KNOW the truth only by studying Your Word and allowing the Spirit to teach and guide me into ALL truth. Then I must compare everything by that is said or printed by Your Word to test it for truth.
If I am not in Your word:studying, searching, reading, and praying over it, I too can be deceived because I would not KNOW the truth. Lord, You did not have to leave it with us...but You did. You not only left it with us, but also gave us the author, teacher, and guide the moment we trusted You for our salvation; You entrusted it to us/me! This truth is too wonderful for me!
