A warning about how the "father of lies" attempts to mislead us, packaging destructive ideas in the guise of spiritual truth. Not every lie sounds untrue. Some just sound right. And some are repeated so often that they virtually become "common knowledge." This is what makes lies about God so dangerous. So we have to ask, what might God's enemy want us to believe to lead us astray? And would we even see it happening?
