If you want to overcome trial?

 

 

 

• Faith and Deception

 

Main reference: Jude (Mt 24:4, Lk 13:23-30, Gal 3:23-29)

 

What is faith and deception?

Apostle Paul wrote that Abraham was called a forefather of faith.  Abraham was not justified by works, but his faith was credited as righteousness (Rom 4:1-11).

In regards to deception, Jesus warned to not be deceived by people at the end of age (Mt 24:4). In Genesis 3, Eve was deceived by the snake when she ate the fruit of the knowledge of good and evil. Eventually, she died. After Adam and Eve were deceived, they hid and did not appear before God.  They did not ask God when they were being deceived. All this happened because their minds had already been overtaken by the snake.

As seen in Matthew 4, Jesus fought and overcame with the word when he was tempted by the snake, in other words, the devil. Many of us faced such trials and even deception by the enemy but have overcome. As it is recorded, Satan masquerades himself as an angel of light. It is not surprising, then, if his servants masquerade themselves as servants of righteousness (2 Cor 11:13-15). Our faith is in the Word rather than in a person’s flesh. One will overcome trials if he has the Word.
