"Seeing Beyond the Appearance" -Christians should not be overly concerned with being deceived. Why? Because Christians have the Holy Spirit living in us. Even though Christians have the Holy Spirit, who is the Spirit of Truth living in us, we can still allow ourselves to be deceived. We have a responsibility to guard our hearts so that we are not deceived. Jesus warns us in Matthew 24 that great deception will occur in the days preceding His return to earth. Since we are indeed living in the last days, we must do our part to protect our hearts from deception.
