I am happlily married with 5 kids. I am an accoutant and worked in an accounting field for over 25 years. I like to make a habit of writing down whenever I have deep thoughts about God (so I won't forget). I really into Reformed Theology that is connected to Presbyterian Church in America.

False Religion

False religion have been around for so long that many know the differences between major religions around the world. The main problem is false teachings being taught within the Christian community. This is an area in which people are highly vulnerable to self-deception, where likenesses and differences are so difficult to distinguish in the "Christian" world. People often do not escape deceptions around the world unless they REALLY know the Word. Half-truths and faith are alike only as a mushroom and a toadstool are alike; one is good nutritious food and the other contains a dangerous poison. Can we trust the Holy Spirit to convict of sin, to reveal Christ, to open our minds to understand spiritual truth? If He doesn't do it, it doesn't get done despite all our efforts. John Wesley’s quote: "a fanatic is one who seeks desired ends while ignoring the constituted means to reach those ends."
