11 And [kai] for this [touto] cause [dia] God [theos] shall send [pempo] them [autos] strong [energeia] delusion, [plane] that [eis] they [autos] should believe [pisteuo] a lie: [pseudos] KJV-Interlinear

 

 

11 And for this reason God will send upon them a deluding influence so that they might believe what is false, NASB

 

 

There are only two views in existence Gods truth, and everything else. There is only one truth, and everything else is a lie.

 

Why is that? Because in everything else, people misinterpret or misapply the meaning, and misuse the facts that are before them.

 

That is why we have so many religions, so many philosophies, so many beliefs, and so many attitudes in existence in this world.People who adopt them for their own beliefs are adopting lies, and therein is your strong delusion.

 

The power of non-truth is tremendous, but it gains its power only because people allow it to have power over their lives.

 

Bible doctrine is like a light in ones soul.It shines and lets you see what is really around you. If you do not have Bible doctrine in your soul, then you cannot see, because you are living your life in the dark. And that means an absolute darkness in which there is no light. Not even so much as the light from a candle, not even so much as the light from a distant star on a very dark night. Zero light, in which you cannot even see your hand when held in front of your nose.Total blackness of sight.

 

That is strong delusion.

 

And how is it allowed to affect people?Because they reject, they refuse, to allow the light of the Word of God into their soul.

 

They see with their eyes.They see the world around them.They see their school and work and social activities.But that is not really seeing. It is the delusion of sight without seeing the ultimate repercussion of the thoughts in your life, on your life.

 

With strong delusion comes absurd ideas. For example, vast forests, vast coal deposits, vast reservoirs of oil, vast wealth, vast prosperity through liberty, even common sense, and similar concepts such as these, are rejected, even though God created them all, gave them all to us for our use.

 

Instead people embrace socialism, isolationism, pursuit of resources that do not exist, restriction of production in order to get more, ancestry from mush, and similar concepts like these which are absolutely absurd.This is the strong delusion into which God allows people to fall.

 

Why? Because, God is a gentleman.God does not intimidate people into thinking His way, but gives everyone the freedom to make up their own minds, even if their own decisions are wrong.

 

People walk out into the dark jungle of life, thinking that they are safe.

 

They are not.

 

Your life is the sum total of the decisions you make during your life. If you allow darkness into your life, then you go your way, totally lost.And you mock and laugh at everyone else.

 

If you bring light (Bible doctrine) into your soul, then you can see everything clearly. And more important, you can see that your life, now, is only the very beginning of an eternal existence, for which God has given you but a moment to prepare for. Your lifespan, whether it be a few years or several decades, in the timeline of eternity, is but a moment, or a blink on that timeline.

 

Why make bad decisions that will ruin your forever, when you can make good decisions that will guarantee you a life in eternity, and even now, that will be far beyond your dreams and desires and imaginations?

 

Col 1:5

5 because of the hope laid up for you in heaven, of which you previously heard in the word of truth, the gospel, NASB

 

John 14:6

6 Jesus said to him, "I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father, but through Me. NASB

 

John 1:17

17 For the Law was given through Moses; grace and truth were realized through Jesus Christ. NASB

 

Eph 4:21

21 if indeed you have heard Him and have been taught in Him, just as truth is in Jesus, NASB

 

 

Bible doctrine is truth.You must learn it before you can possess it.You must study it by means of a disciplined study approach, before you can learn it.

 

Study to show thyself approved [mature] unto God.

 

There is only one way to grow up to spiritual maturity, and that is through a daily study of the Word of God.There are no shortcuts.

 

The sum total of your life does not come to you until you learn doctrine and advance to spiritual maturity.But like so many things in life, you won t know what you have, until you have it, or until you lose it. And never knowing a better life should not even be a consideration.Only a negative attitude toward God, Christ, doctrine and your spiritual life can prevent you from a better life.In short, you are only barrier to something better for yourself.

 

The world will throw many obstacles at you, but with doctrine in your soul, then you have God to help you around them.
