The devil lied to Eve, she believed him because she liked what she heard, it fed her ego.
Miscommunication and lack of communication often happens because those hearing like what they hear, choosing not to delve deeper into truth.
Many do not do the research when they hear gossip, they simply believe what they hear, rather than going to the person who is the object of gossip, they just suck all the juicy tidbits in because of their lust for gossip, especially if it's against someone they don't particularly like.
Eve didn't bother to go to Adam to discuss what the serpent said to her, nor did she go to God. She merely made the choice to believe what tickled her ears. The same things goes on every day in this world now.
Christians are being fed theological poisonous lies that flatter and promote happiness. It is easier to believe them than it is to question or research. If they question what they have heard they often incur the wrath of the teacher or leader. When they research for themselves they have few if any people with which to share their findings because what they find goes against what most people want to believe.
The life of an authentic questioning and praying believer is a difficult one, they seem to always be swimming up stream alone, or at least they feel alone.
Believers have been intimidated into silence by those using mocking and manipulation. They will not tolerate hearing anything different from what everyone else is believing.
Sin is not being dealt with in the church, those who attempt to help with the cleansing through speaking the truth are the ones who are negated and expunged in order to keep the status quo.
One way that is being used to intimidate authentic believers is to change the terminology, often calling sin, "mistakes", softening the wickedness of it. When this happens many people will feel relieved that their sin is not so bad, they don't care they are indulging after all, to them it is just a little thing.
The truth teller will be lied about, mocked and excluded if they cannot be silenced.
The devils know that it is better to make people feel comfortable under the preaching of pleasing and happy lies than to put many hardships on their families that will only serve to cause them, in their anguish, to turn to God.
Our churches are no longer places to learn holiness and righteousness, they are filled with people who love their comfort and pleasure. They do not want God, they only want His stuff, His protection, provision and heaven. We know this because when we challenge them to think about holiness, their face turns red, they change the subject and even rage back at us as though we had done something unforgivable.
Welcome to the end times church, fully apostate and fully greedy. There is however a remnant that still loves God, enjoys holiness and wants to follow hard after Him. Hallelujah!!!
