Facts Or Forgeries?
"Little children, let no one deceive you. He who
practices righteousness is righteous, just as He
is righteous. He who sins is of the devil, for the
devil has sinned from the beginning."
1 John 3: 7-8
Have you ever stood admiring paintings in a museum, amazed
at the masterpieces before you?
Could they be fakes. Art dealer
Eric Hebborn, dead in 1996, created over a thousand drawings
and paintings and sold them for vast sums to museums and
collectors who thought
they were buying old masterpieces.
Hebborn used paper and paints from years gone by, and his
work was so good it was nearly impossible to detect. “I’m
not
a crook,” he said. “Forgeries should be enjoyed for what they
are, rather than being questioned for what they’re not.”
We’re living in a world of deception, and it’s difficult to
know the truth. False philosophies, values,
opinions,
ethics, morals, and standards are warping our
world.
Deception often trips up believers in their walk of faith.
It’s hard to deceive the Christian who studies the Word
of God day and night. God’s Truth is revealing light that
clarifies our outlook and solidifies faith. Keep your nose
in the Book of Truth, and your eyesight will be 2020.
"The Bible’s power rests upon the fact that it is
the reliable, errorless, and infallible Word of God."
Charles Colson
