From the Archives, this post is appropriate for what is happening in the political and spiritual arena in our country right now!

I was cooking tacos tonight and reached for the lovely red and yellow trusty, dependable bottle of ground cumin to add my spices. I use this spice a lot and have come to take it for granted. I can describe the bottle to you, I can tell you all about the wonderful dishes we've made together, I can sort of describe it's aroma and flavor. Yep, we go way back, Cumin and I. However, tonight...I was easily fooled!

Note the picture:
Don't be fooled by a look-a-like!
Curried tacos anyone! Oops!

Make your own spiritual, political, personal application here...but too many Christians are being misled by false teaching that looks very close to A gospel...just not THE GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST!!!
You've got it...

PAY ATTENTION!
Don't be fooled! Read scripture, search the ingredients for Holy truth.

Accept  NO OTHER GOSPEL  than the gospel of Jesus Christ.

No other leader than one who speaks life, speaks truth, speaks respect.

2 Corinthians 11:3-4

3 But I am afraid that just as Eve was deceived by the serpent’s cunning, your minds may somehow be led astray from your sincere and pure devotion to Christ. 4 For if someone comes to you and preaches a Jesus other than the Jesus we preached, or if you receive a different spirit from the Spirit you received, or a different gospel from the one you accepted, you put up with it easily enough.

Pride and arrogance causes some to want to, not only be like God, but be their own god; to create their own truth...a false gospel.

Many leaders are successfully fooling people into following an imitation, a substitute, a look-a-like!

Isaiah 14:13 

For you said to yourself,
‘I will ascend to heaven and set my throne above God’s stars.
I will preside on the mountain of the gods
far away in the north.
14 I will climb to the highest heavens
and be like the Most High.’

Take a closer look. Does the teaching you are following, do the teachers, preachers, leaders you are listening to...line up with scripture and the Gospel of Christ?

Don't grab the seasoning without closely reading the label and please don't follow false teaching.

Just thinkin',
