\u201cThen desire when it has conceived gives birth to sin, and sin when it is fully grown brings forth death.\u00a0Do not be deceived, my beloved brother\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

John 13:27<\/b>\u00a0<\/a>\u00a0Then after he had taken the morsel, Satan entered into him. Jesus said to him, \u201cWhat you are going to do, do quickly.\u201d<\/p>\n

John 13:2<\/b><\/a>\u00a0\u00a0<\/b>\u00a0\u00a0During supper, when the devil had already put it into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon’s son, to betray him,<\/p>\n

Matthew 12:45<\/b><\/a>\u00a0\u00a0<\/b>\u00a0\u00a0Then it goes and brings with it seven other spirits more evil than itself, and they enter and dwell there, and the last state of that person is worse than the first. So also will it be with this evil generation.\u201d<\/p>\n

Luke 22:3<\/b><\/a>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/b>\u00a0\u00a0Then Satan entered into Judas called Iscariot, who was of the number of the twelve.<\/p>\n

Proverbs 1:16<\/b><\/a>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/b>\u00a0\u00a0for their feet run to evil,<\/p>\n

Ecclesiastes 9:3<\/b><\/a>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/b>\u00a0\u00a0This is an evil in all that is done under the sun, that the same event happens to all. Also, the hearts of the children of man are full of evil, and madness is in their hearts while they live, and after that they go to the dead.<\/p>\n

If we are born with a sinful nature and this is the natural mindset and heart of man how are we to know what is sin in our life? \u00a0How do we know the difference between good and bad? \u00a0Our natural mind would conclude that if it benefits society and the culture identifies it as good, then it must be pleasing to God. \u00a0Viewing this from this standpoint gives a very strong illusion of being right with God and serving Him. \u00a0However nothing could be worse for our soul. \u00a0Trying to be and do good is not serving God. \u00a0It is nothing more than trying to earn and work way to be right with God. \u00a0Performing acts of goodness and kindness apart from humbly seeking, serving, honoring, following and obeying God are man’s unworthy attempts and used by Satan to blind us into thinking we are right with God. \u00a0this mindset leads us down paths of complacency and neglecting God’s word in favor of doing what we think is right. \u00a0They mindset tells us we are doing what God wants. \u00a0This is a lie. \u00a0It is false. \u00a0True servants of God desire and seek His purpose and plan. \u00a0They continue in reading scripture and are fully aware of their sinful nature. \u00a0They seek God to expose their sin and lead them in paths that honor Him. \u00a0They do not try to please God apart from seeking His purpose and plan. \u00a0They choose to be lead and their heart, mind, eyes and ears are open to His leading. \u00a0Be mindful of your sinful nature and it’s desires, and Satan’s deceits.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
