How do we identify someone who is not a true believer of God?
False believers are identified by their fruit by following their sinful desires: sexual immorality, impurity, lustful pleasures, idolatry, sorcery, hostility, quarreling, jealousy, outbursts of anger, selfish ambition, dissension, division, envy, drunkenness, wild parties, and other sins like these. Anyone who lives like this will not inherit the kingdom of God.
They have perverted the Word of God and modified it to the prevailing culture in the guise of inclusivity, tolerance, and progressivity. They have compromised with seducing spirits that are in the “church.
According to 1 Timothy 4:(1) ”Now the Holy Spirit tells us clearly that in the last times some will turn away from the true faith; they will follow deceptive spirits and teachings that come from demons. (2) These people are hypocrites and liars, and their consciences are dead.”
We are not to get caught in the snares of the enemy because even the very elect will be deceived. Our only authentic source is the Bible and every Christian must know the Word of God. This is our sword, our weapon against the invading forces of evil that is encompassing us.
Jesus reminded us we will be hated because for His Namesake but we are soldiers in the army of God and our weapons are spiritual. Trust God.
