Sincerely Deceived
Then there are those that sincerely believe that December 25th is the Lords
birthday and celebrate it. But sincerity is not on the list of the Fruit of the Holy
Spirit.
ìBut the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering,
gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance...î
Galatians 5:22-23
Just because we believe a thing to be true, that doesnít necessarily make it so.
Does ignorance negate the consequences of our actions? Again, we need only
look to the scriptures.
ìAnd that servant, which knew his lord's will, and prepared not
himself, neither did according to his will, shall be beaten with
many stripes. But he that knew not, and did commit things
worthy of stripes, shall be beaten with few stripes. For unto
whomsoever much is given, of him shall be much required: and
to whom men have committed much, of him they will ask the
more.î Luke 12:47-48
All Bible believing Christians know that Gods Word is the truth.ìÖthy word is truthî John 17:17
They know that Jesus is the truth.ìÖI am the way, the truth, and the life...î John 14:6
They also know that the Holy Spirit is the Spirit of truth.ìÖI will send unto youÖthe Spirit of truthÖî John 15:26
If Gods Word is the truth, then any and all forms of idolatry are evil, and strictly
forbidden by the Word of God.
