Define Deceit – Deceit Is Only A Temporary Condition

Psalms 72:14. When we define deceit we must remember that deceit is not a permanent condition. A person is set free from a particular deceit once he knows the truth (John 8:32, “And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.”). When we do not know the truth we are in bondage, but we do not have to stay in bondage. By knowing the truth all the destructive aspects of deceit become null and void. People living in deceit are headed for destruction only if they do not know or accept the truth. From a Christian perspective, we stay in sin and its terrible consequences because of deceit. We believe that this temporal life is all that there is and that only death, the ultimate consequence of sin, is all that is before us. The effects of sin, to include spiritual death, only need to be temporary. Truth and redemption offered by Jesus Christ are eternal  (Psalms 72:14, “He shall redeem their soul from deceit and violence: and precious shall their blood be in his sight.”)
