Life and Living
Part Twenty-Nine
I talked to a person about the word deceive. I did not do a perfect job of explaining the word's meaning and how harmful it can be to a person.
A person can be tricked into believing something is true but then don’t even know they have been tricked.
This is the part that is so harmful to a person. After a person has been tricked into believing something other than the truth, they continue to act on the lie without knowing it is a lie.
A person who has been deceived does not even know they have been deceived. They believe and act on a lie, thinking it is the truth.
The world, even the religious world, is full of lies that the deceived people believe to be true.
Sad, so sad.
How can they be taught the truth again when they believe the lie is the truth?
