” NOW I BESEECH YOU, BRETHREN MARK THEM……AND AVOID THEM…. WHO BY GOOD WORDS AND FAIR SPEECHES DECEIVE THE HEARTS OF THE SIMPLE.” – Romans 16:17 & 18.
In this ‘dog eat dog world’ where everyone is hungry for success, even the church has not been spared from the scourge of such slick, smooth operaters; Charlatans masquerading as ‘do-gooders’ and ‘holy men of God’ have wreaked havoc in the lives of so many gullible and feeble-minded simpletons; they’ll stab you in the back and sell you out in a heartbeat if its to their own advantage; they’ll exploit your love and friendship to the hilt without a pang of conscience. In our ‘throw-away’ culture using people and then throwing them away, once they’ve achieved their end is second nature to them. So, don’t judge the book by it’s cover; be on your guard – all that glitters is not gold!
Paying heed to Paul’s warning will save us from a lot of heartache and anguish. Take care and God bless you.
