      Feb 11, 2022

      The apostle Paul exhorts Christians to “walk by faith and not by sight” – 2 Corinthians 5:7. What we see here is a contrast between truth and perception—what we know and believe to be true and what we perceive to be true. This is where the Christian

    Overview

    There are many deceptions in this world. Several deceptions are harder to identify and many good Christians are easily deceived. Devil’s Deceptions is a collection of 11 articles of various deceptions that every true Christian must know and guard against in these last days. Each deception is organized into an individual article. Read and be blessed.

    Deception of Faith

    The blunder that many make is joining sides on the faith vs works requirement for salvation and not allowing Scriptures to speak. The faith only group will take verses like Gal 2:16 and Rom 3:28 and try to give a twisted meaning to Jas 2:24. The works requirement will take James and give a twisted meaning to the faith only verses. So, what is the truth? The problem with both sides is they don't discern properly.

    Faith Only

    All the scripture verses that do not hinge on works are actually referring to works of the law - which produces righteousness of the law.

    (Gal 2:16) Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified.

    (Rom 3:28) Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law.

    Faith and Works

    And the verse that hinge on works and faith is actually referring to the righteous works mentioned by Christ.

    (Jas 2:24) Ye see then how that by works a man is justified, and not by faith only.

    Context of faith by Paul & James (using Gen 15:6)

    (Rom 4:2-5) For if Abraham were justified by works, he hath [whereof] to glory; but not before God. For what saith the scripture? Abrahambelieved God, and it was counted unto him for righteousness. Now to him that worketh is the reward not reckoned of grace, but of debt. But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness.

    (Jas 2:21-24) Was not Abraham our father justified by works, when he had offered Isaac his son upon the altar? Seest thou how faith wrought with his works, and by works was faith made perfect? And the scripture was fulfilled which saith, Abraham believed God, and it was imputed unto him for righteousness: and he was called the Friend of God. Ye see then how that by works a man is justified, and not
