Many people turn to fortune tellers, psychics, and horoscopes for hope. Faith in this hope (false hope) has ruined countless lives.
Witchcraft, magic, and other similar practices are very lucrative. In fact, the love of money is at the root of this evil just as it is all others.
The truth is more valuable than any earthly possession and it would be worth a man selling everything he owns just to possess the truth.
All men, at some point in their lives, are confronted with the truth. At such time, men must choose to accept or reject that truth.
God is "a God of truth" and the words that proceed forth from Him reflect His nature. As such, the words of God are just as true as the God of the words.
Many people choose to continue in sin thinking that the consequences are not mounting up. The scriptures indicate something quite different.
The Bible does not always paint man in a positive light, yet it always paints him accurately. According to scripture, there is no man that sinneth not.
How would making your motive match the Lord's motive change how you approach the Christian life (from witnessing to praying to Bible reading and so on)?
