Don't Be Deceived!

How do we identify a false religion or (Cult)? One thing that false religions have in common is that they deny the Deity of Jesus Christ. They will tell you that they believe that Jesus is the Son of God. When you dig a little deeper into what they really believe, they will deny that Jesus is God the Son. All through the Bible we are told that Jesus is the second person of the Trinity. I was listening to Mitt Romney's speech today on the news where he was telling the nation that his Mormon religion would not interfere with his presidential candidacy. It all sounded good when he said that he and the Mormons believe that Jesus was the Son of God, but no where did he say that Jesus was God the Son. The difference is in admitting that Jesus is God the Son. When I have talked with Jehovah Witnesses and have asked them who Jesus is, they also have told me that Jesus is the Son of God, but not God the Son.

I'm sure that most Mormon's are a good and loving people, but they are still lost in the fact that they don't have eternal life through Jesus Christ. Salvation can only be achieved by faith in Jesus Christ.
Acts; 4:12
(Nor is there salvation in any other, for there is no name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.")
John; 14:6
(Jesus said to him, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.)

Many antichrist will come in the last days and we are told to be prepared. How do we get prepared? We study the Word of God, not the book of Mormon, or the writings in the watch tower of the Jehovah witness. God gave us the Bible and that is all we need to be prepared for the Cults and their beliefs.
2Timothy; 3:16-17
(All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.)

We are instructed to be on guard because the enemy is out there and looking for someone to devour. When someone tells you something that your not sure of, filter it through the Bible. If it contradicts the Bible, don't believe it. There are many false religions out there and they are deceiving people. Not only deceiving others but they are also deceived into believing the lie. The best thing that we can do is pray for them that God will lift the veil of blindness that Satan has on them. Be on your guard always.
1Peter; 5:8-9
(Be sober, be vigilant, because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. Resist him, steadfast in the faith, knowing that the same sufferings are experienced by your brotherhood in the world.)

God Bless You!
