Bankers are not taught to recognize every possible counterfeit bill out there. They are taught to know the genuine bill so well that they can spot a fake. We have the best spiritual Counterfeit Detector of all; the Holy Spirit.

There is only one truth that matters from an eternal perspective—Jesus is the way, the Truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father but through Him. We must devote ourselves to being truth seekers. Put on the armor of God and take up the shield of faith. Be wise as serpents and gentle as doves. Only then can we have victory in our lives and be able to endure to the end.

Authentic Christianity is not an institution—it’s placing one’s faith and trust in Jesus Christ as Messiah and redeemer, and through Jesus being reconciled to  God.

In this episode, Tracy uses her experience in Mormonism to illustrate that the Enemy—Satan—uses the same deceptive tactics in every false religious system outside and inside of the umbrella of Christianity.

Religious deception and spiritual abuse exists within some Christian churches. When honest questions or a desire for transparency with church finances or practices are discouraged or forbidden, it’s a sign that something is wrong.
