The Promise: If we remain in the truth, we will receive eternal life.

The Problem: There is an enemy who wants to lure us away from the truth.

            1 John 2:26

Deception today:

• “Store up treasure for yourself on Earth.” 
• “Jesus is a way, a truth, and a life.” 
• “Don’t deny yourself, fulfill yourself.” 

The goal of deception is to lure people away from the truth, and ultimately away from eternal life.

The Solution: The Holy Spirit guides us in the truth, and into eternal life.

            1 John 2:27

            John 16:13

• The Scriptures
  2 Timothy 3:16-17
• The Church
