Dangerous Justifications for Sin

Many of us believe the biggest threat to genuine faith comes from charlatans who deceive with lies and half-truths, tickling our ears with what we want to hear. And certainly we must remain vigilant against those who preach a false gospel and seek to devour the gullible and vulnerable. But an equally dangerous source of deceit lies in our own hearts. In fact, the Bible tells us, â??The heart is deceitful above all things and desperately wicked; who can know it?â? (Jeremiah 17:9, NKJV).
