Dr. Bell talks about deception. How deception can cause you to be out of the will of God and not walk in the truth. Deception is being a false witness. The tongue can deceive others and cause havoc in the lives of all involved. Words are powerful and can cut through the heart of an individual. Living a life that is above the means of the individual is not only deceiving others into believing that they can attain said riches in a certain manner, but also deceiving themselves into believing they can maintain that lifestyle while robbing one thing to pay another. Compromising goes against what truth stands for. This action places Christ back on the cross.

Deception often takes the truth and implies an adjective. Deception operates by withholding the parts of the story.
