Men have been “handling the word of God deceitfully” (2Corinthians 4:2) ever since the devil first taught Eve how. From Cain to Balaam, from Jehudi to the scribes and Pharisees, from the Dark Age theologians to present-day scholars, the living words of the Almighty God have been prime targets for man’s corrupting hand. The attacks on the Word of God are threefold: addition, subtraction, and substitution. From Adam’s day to the computer age, the strategies have remained the same. There is nothing new under the sun.
When others speak wrongfully of you, what do you do? Do you take that time to ask God if what is being said is true? Do you turn to God and ask Him to search your heart for any wrong doing? You may be surprised what God would do in your heart during the times when you have been done wrong.
