* People don’t fall away from God because they don’t know the truth.

* They fall away because they don’t LOVE the truth (vs 10).

* The love of the truth keeps us from being deceived.

* ex: my daughter used my wife’s phone to send me a text. I knew it wasn’t her right away. How? Because I know my wife - I know her because I’m in love with her.

* The love of the truth also sets people free from addiction.

* ex: John Bevere overcame porn addiction when he read this verse.

* Not looking at porn because it’s not right will only last so long.

* Not looking at porn because you love God and you love your wife will keep you from it forever.
