Error Is Skilled At Imitating Truth

"So skilled is error at imitating truth
that the two are constantly being mistaken for each other.
It is therefore critically important that the Christian take full advantage
of every provision God has made to save him from delusion -
prayer, faith, constant meditation of the Scriptures,
obedience, humility and the illumination of the Holy Spirit"
~A.W. Tozer in That Incredible Christian

Mike Gendron writes:
We need to ask God for courage and boldness as we rely on the power of His Word. May we all become more like the apostles who were strong, bold, fearless, dogmatic, unaccommodating of error, courageous, intolerant of sin, inflexible concerning the Gospel, controversial, willing to die for the truth and fully devoted to Christ. We are no longer to be children, tossed here and there by waves and carried about by the trickery of men, by craftiness in deceitful scheming (Ephesians 4:14). During these times of great deception, the Body of Christ must respond with a theological, biblical worldview that defends the glory and honor of our Lord Jesus Christ.
