2 Corinthians 11:13-14, "For such men are false apostles, deceitful workmen, masquerading as apostles of Christ. And no wonder, for Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light!"
Did you know that you will not find the wickedest man alive, in a night club--but in a church building.
He is not in prison--but in the pastorate.
The wickedest man alive, does not wear an orange jumpsuit--he wears a three piece suit.
He does not wear handcuffs--but handsome cuff-links.
He doesn't traffic in drugs--he traffics in the souls of men.
He doesn't butcher bodies--he butchers the souls of men and the truth of God.
He does not sit on death row--but on a church platform.
The most violent man alive, is not a terrorist--but a religionist.
He is not a rapist--but an evangelist.
He's not an atheist--but a Baptist.
He's not a gang member--but a church member.
The most dangerous man alive, doesn't even own a gun--he owns a Bible.
The most treacherous man on earth, is not a vulgar man of ill-repute--but respectable, kind and well-polished.
He won't cuss you--he'll bless you.
He will not speak of profane things--but of holy things.
The vilest man on earth, will not talk to you about filth--but about God.
The most deceitful man alive, doesn't spend his time devising acts of terrorism--but preparing sermons.
The most violent criminal in the world, doesn't even break the law--he keeps the law.
The most slippery serpent on earth, will not be found in the gutter--but in the pulpit.
The deadliest man in the world, is not in organized crime--but in organized religion.
The wickedest man alive, is not a pimp--but a Pharisee.
The most perverse man on earth, is not a pornographer--but a theologian.
Mark it down, and never forget it: The wickedest, vilest, most deceptive, most deadly, most treacherous, blood-thirsty villain alive--is not a criminal, a porn addict, a pervert, a pedophile or a pusher--he's a preacher!
The wickedest man alive is a wolf--but he is no ordinary wolf. He is a wolf who looks, smells, talks, walks, and acts just like a sheep! He says he wants to help you, to guide you to the Lord. And therein lies the greatness of his wickedness, the treachery of his speech, and the poison of his sting!
"Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing but inwardly are ravenous wolves!" Matthew 7:15
