Whenever people begin to study the scriptures without a prayerful, teachable spirit, they will twist the plainest passages away from their tire meaning. The whole Bible should be given to the people just as it reads. The word of God is plain to all who study it with a prayerful heart.
People are blinded to Satan's deceptions. He succeeds in displacing the Bible with human speculations. People set aside the Law of God, and the churches are in slavery to sin while they claim to be free.
The false doctrine among the churches remove landmarks that the word of God has established. Few people stop when they have rejected just one truth. The majority set aside one after another of the principles of truth, until the reject the Christian faith altogether.
The errors of popular theology have driven many people to skepticism. It is impossible for them to accept doctrines that outrage their sense of justice, Marcy, and kindness. Since the churches say that these are the teachings of the Bible, such people refuse to acknowledge it as the word of God.
Many people look distrustful at the word of God because it rebukes and condemns sin. Those who are unwilling to obey try to overthrow its authority. Many reject religion in order to justify their evil ways and neglect of duty. Others, who love ease too much to accomplish anything that requires self-denial, acquire a reputation for superior wisdom by criticizing the Bible.
Many feel it is virtue to stand on the side of unbelief, skepticism and irreligion. But underneath an appearance of honesty they act from self-confidence and pride. Many delight in finding something in the scriptures to puzzle the mind of others.
Satan can produce a counterfeit that so closely resemble the truth it can deceive those who are willing to be deceived, those that want to avoid the sacrifice that truth demands. Satan is an expert in quoting the scripture, placing his own interpretations on passages in hope of causing us to stumble. The repulsive views of the word of God that have spread over the world from the teaching of the pulpit have made millions of people skeptics and unbelievers.
