Do Not Be Deceived - Ways To Protect Yourself
As lies, censorship, and propaganda surrounds us, it takes effort to identify Truth. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson offers seven ways to protect yourself from deception, such as cultivating humility, basing everything on the Scriptures, being wary of fantasy, and keeping your faith simple and plain. He also identifies several attitudes and behaviors that make us vulnerable to deceit and false prophecy, including having a limited awareness of Scripture. Pastor Allen’s points create "guardrails" that will help us distinguish Truth from deception.
Do Not be Deceived
We are walking through a time of dramatic deception, and we need to know how to recognize it because we are all vulnerable. Pastor Allen Jackson names three key coordinates we can use to discern whether something is true or false: If it aligns with Jesus, the Word of God, and the Holy Spirit, it’s truth! He talks about the fallacies of liberation theology, new age philosophies, false prophecy, the use of occult practices like seances and ouiji boards to predict the future, and other destructive movements that are prevalent in today’s culture. God’s Truth is the anecdote to deception, and with Jesus, we can not only be delivered from it, but be redeemed!
Protection From Deception - The Proverbs
What if you could recognize the paths that lead to blessings and avoid those that don’t? The book of Proverbs offers clear and succinct directions on how navigate life and pursue God’s best. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the wisdom we find in Proverbs and why it’s worth instilling its truths in our lives. Each decision we make either brings us closer to God and His plans for us, or further away. It’s wise to take the time to know the instructions God gave us through the book of Proverbs, and then be diligent to put those teachings into practice.
