Please read 2 Peter 2.
Meditate on verse 2.
Many will follow their sensuality,
and because of them the way of the truth will be maligned.
Peter warned
his readers there were false teachers among them. These teachers introduced
destructive heresies, followed their sensuality, and maligned the truth. Their
eyes were full of adultery, never ceasing from sin.
More than
2,000 years have passed, but your world is similar to Peter’s. There are false
teachers, even in churches, teaching heresy as if it was truth. God’s Word does
not change; He still hates sin. God hates sin because it destroys lives. Just
because the world legalizes and condones sin does not change what God thinks
about it. Sin will still ruin your life and the lives of your loved ones even
when it is legalized. What God said was immoral and wrong in the Old Testament
was immoral and wrong in the New Testament and is immoral and wrong today. If
God did not spare angels when they sinned, but cast them into hell, He will
keep the unrighteous under punishment for the Day of Judgment (2 Peter 2:4, 9).
Do not be
swayed from the truth of the Bible. Do not let a preacher, teacher, family
member, or friend convince you that God or His Word has changed. Stand firm!
Live to please the LORD rather than men.
Pray 2 Peter
2:9a over yourself and those for whom you stand guard as a faithful, prayerful
watchman (Isaiah 62:6-7).
“LORD, You know how to rescue the Godly from
temptation.
Rescue ________ and me, today.
For Your
sake, Jesus~”
