Psa 119:104 KJV Through thy precepts I get understanding: therefore I hate every false way.

When one truly gets understanding of the doctrine of God, there is no compromise for him.  He cannot tolerate the compromises that adulterate it nor the emulations that cheapen it.  His soul has seen, has been illuminated, by the true Light of God, and no proud pretense will ever be able to claim to take its place in his heart.  His soul will forever be at war against those who try to imitate it, and he will have the uncanny ability to find hidden lies, even when hidden under a good coat of truth.  You know, rat-poisoning is made up of 99% food, and only 1% poison, and 1% is all it takes to kill the rat. The strong light of God’s truth, that provides one with a holy hatred of falsities, can help us find lies in the myriads of words and pictures that vie for our loyalties in this modern world, even the 1%!.

This makes it so hard for today’s Child of God to stay true to the truth.  He has to constantly fight to stay on the track of God’s word, and he incurs other’s wrath when he mentions truth as given in the Word of God.

The Bible tells us that times will not get better, but rather worse.  That is why it is vital for us to personally stay in touch with God’s Words, interpreted in our hearts by His Holy Spirit (John 14:16,17,26); it is the only way we have to be able to stay on track of God’s truth, and that will help us identify the “man of sin” (2Thes 2:3) when he comes.  

Remember, the apostle Paul warned us and said, “a little leaven (false doctrine) leaveneth the whole lump” .  Do you have “hatred of every false way?”

2Ti 4:3  For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears.
