Deceitful thoughts and desires separate you from God and from His grace.

Sometimes I write such texts that are a truism to me and I would never think that what I write will appeal to many people. Perhaps that will be the case with this article I am writing now.

 

One of the earliest references to the tremendous impact of deceitful thoughts on human life is the story of the drama of Cain. Before committing sin, Cain was, like most of us, warned by God himself to finally show him rebellion and kill his brother.

 

Let us recall the story:

 

After a time, Cain offered a crop sacrifice to Yahweh. (4) Abel also sacrificed firstborn The animals of his flock and the fat of them. Yahweh looked kindly on Abel and on his sacrifice, (5) But he did not look upon Cain and his sacrifice. Angered it was Cain so much that his face changed. (6) So Yahweh asked Cain, Why does this make you angry? Why did your face change?

 

As we can see, it all starts with thoughts. Often uncontrolled ones. Cain began envy brother. He then fell into anger To the point that his face changed.

 

 

 (7) Is [the offering] not accepted if you do good? But if you do wrong, then sin like a demon [lurks] at the gates and lusts after you. You, however, are supposed to be in control of it!

 

 

God gives a warning. He says to Cain that if he had done right, sin would not have entered his mind. Sin begets sin. This is why the Lord Jesus placed such great emphasis on our thoughts, regarding anger itself as murder and lustful looks as adultery. God, compared sin to a demon, for all sin is the invention of demons. Whether it is anger, or jealousy, or self-indulgence, selfishness, lying, stealing, idolatry, etc. sin is fellowship with demons.

 

 

 

(8) And Cain said to his brother Abel, Let us go into the field. And when they were come into the field, Cain sprang upon his brother, and slew him.

 

Cain disobeyed God, but how many times have we heard God's gentle voice in our thoughts telling us not to do this and that and yet we do. We hurt those closest to us and we don't stop ourselves.

 

 

 

This first forensic recordable murder in world history could have been stopped if Cain had taken the WORD of GOD seriously.

 

But are we not Cains? Does God forgive us? In the New Testament it is already written "be angry but do not sin, let the sun not set on your anger". To paraphrase "you have a right to be angry, to be tempted, but stop in time".

 

There is much talk about alcohol, about fornication with other women, but what is masturbation if not the life of Cain? Looking lustfully at other women, entertaining thoughts is adultery according to Jesus' view. I used to have a CB. Fortunately it is now Janosik, because there was such a mass of rudeness on the air that sometimes I turned it off and sometimes I was reprimanded for "beautiful" words. But also sometimes the truck drivers would ask where the so called "truckers" were closest. Of course, they were probably wishing each other Christmas wishes on December 24th because KRK made them believe that they were saved.

 

But what about well-educated men in galleries looking at the legs of strange women? What about Christians who go to sites where Satan tempts, and I don't mean porn sites, but ones where the headline is "Actress X showed too much. OOO did she show too much? I wonder what, maybe I will enter. Just out of curiosity. She sees a skimpy bikini or a skirt lifted by the wind. No, no, no, no. Just that kind of poodle site.

Once a person from Kielce told me about a church elder who was caught several times having his newspaper open on a page with a naked woman. It's a daily newspaper, but in order to sell something to people who are convinced that they are not sinning, they put a nude woman not on the porn page, but in the daily or weekend edition.

 

 

(9) Then Yahweh asked Cain, Where is your brother Abel? He answered, I know not! Am I my brother's keeper?

 

Cain was pretending to be, colloquially speaking, "stupid" like most of those who look at alluring women: what is it I am the guardian of these women...". It is not a sin to see a girl in a mini, but it is a sin to look at her a few times or to hold your gaze for long.

 

 

(10) And [Yahweh] said: - What have you done! Behold, the blood of thy brother crieth out unto me from the earth. (11) Therefore be cursed now from this land, Which has opened its maw, To receive from thy hand the blood of thy brother.

 

Welcome to the world of hidden sins.

God is holy to leave it at that.He cursed Cain, but at the very first he warned him. He showed him his wrath. Therefore, the Word of God , WORD FROM GOD, THE BIBLE is a good Law for us so that sin like a demon will not reign over us.

Deluded Christians think "Jesus died for my sins, therefore I am saved once and for all". So go ahead and do whatever you want....

But let me remind you that some of the Israelites when they came out of Egypt for their idolatry and lack of obedience died in the desert.

Nothing has changed in this regard.

Men fantasize about women, women fantasize about men, how they would be better off with another and bam, a demon comes in and takes advantage. Through sin there is a loss of blessing.

 

Don't be a fence-sitter.

Just as buying from a fence drives the economy, watching porn drives the market for suffering through porn.

Do you know that some prostitutes are kidnapped beforehand as regular street girls or tricked into thinking they have a good job somewhere?

By looking at porn magazines like this, you feed the boom in women's kidnapping.

By looking at strange women you are hurting your own wife.

By fantasizing about strange men, how you would be with them, how you would have it better, you are hurting your husband.

 

 

"The new commandment* I give youthat you love one another as I have loved you; that you also you have so loved one another"

 

It is certainly not love to lust after strange women or men.

 

 

; So if your right eye is a reason for you to sin, pluck it out and cast it from you. For it is better for you if one of your members dies, than for your whole body to be thrown into hell. And if your right hand is a cause of sin to you, cut it off and cast it from you. For it is better for you if one of your members dies, than for your whole body to go to hell.

 

People need to answer for themselves if their desires are hurting others.

Reportedly 80% serial killers were addicted to pornography and this fact does not show that anyone who is an adulterer in their mind will become a serial killer, but it does show demonic connections. Demons like gangsters never go it alone.

The topic is not exhaustive. Let us put desires under it: power over another person, control, mammon. Sooner or later such sins manifest themselves.

With this text I did not just want to shake onanists, but all of us to examine our hearts, what desires and thoughts we have. Everything begins in the mind. Before someone steals something, he desires it. He doesn't steal it, but he wants it badly. Once he does, he will say like Cain, "It's my fault this bike was on the street.

Is it my fault that I demeaned, demeaned others?

 

 

All lust of the eyes comes from the world:

 

"For all that is in the world: lust bodies, lust eyes i boast about wealth - does not come from the Father, but from the world."

 

 

If God cursed Cain and caused the idolatrous Israelites who fled from the Promised Land to die in the desert, then you too, by engaging in the hidden sin of lust, lose God's grace. You lose what is good and ask yourself: why am I unlucky?

I don't think I need to remind you that God did not spare David himself by taking away his child.
