Galatians 6:3-4 ” If anyone thinks he is something when he is nothing, he deceives himself. Each one should test his own actions. Then he can take pride in himself, without comparing himself to somebody else.”

Today would be a good time for all of us to examine our actions and conduct under the unyielding light of God’s truth. It starts with a sober assessment of our motives, followed by a solemn soul-searching of where we are faith-wise. It means asking ourselves questions like, “Am I listening to God or man?” or “Am I going along with men’s teachings without reading it for myself in the Bible?” So much deception is swirling around us now a days…we need to be careful, for “Knowledge puffs up, but love builds up.” (I Corinthians 8:2) This spirit of deception will cause you to think of yourself more highly than you ought…in other words, that you are beyond being deceived.
