A Form of Godliness,
.
Part 1:
“Humanitarianism”
.
.
.
.
.
The one thing that Satan fears, more than any other thing, is to see people begin to open their Bibles, with the intent of getting to know Jesus.
.
Listen… “And this is life eternal,
that they might know Thee the only true God,
and Jesus Christ, whom Thou hast sent.”
John 17:3
.
And so, it is Satan’s purpose to derail any person from seeking that true saving knowledge of God, which converts hearts and transforms lives into the likeness of Jesus.

ANTICHRIST WORLD
.
And in the last few centuries, Satan has attacked the very nations which once embraced the Christian Reformation, by turning this world into a place with many glittering attractions.
.
Yes, this present world is full of many interesting pleasures and pursuits, enough to keep a person busy for a lifetime!

A PLAN JUST FOR YOU!
.
And Satan has a diversionary attack-plan just tailor-made for each and every man, woman, and child, born into his kingdom of the world.
.
*Maybe for one person, he can drown them in alcohol and drugs.
*Another person, he can mesmerize by 
television watching.
*Another person he can immerse in proud and ambitious career-pursuits.
*Still another, Satan can divert into political intrigue.
.
These, and many more diversions and deceptions, are the ways that “the god of this world” will attempt to keep us from seeking after a saving knowledge of God.

And today, there are many whom Satan diverts into humanitarianism.

NOT TO JUDGE INDIVIDUAL HEARTS
.
Now, every child of God knows that we cannot be pointing the finger at the world, for whatever 
they do. That’s not our job. And neither do we know the true source which motivates any individual person do this or do that.
.
But listen to Jesus as He spoke to His disciples…
“If ye were of the world,
the world would love his own:
but because ye are not of the world,
but I have chosen you out of the world,
therefore the world hateth you.”
John 15:19
.
The world “loves his own”, as this above verse reveals. Many are the humanitarian programs, carried out by vast armies of social-justice warriors all over this very deceptive world.
.
But God has chosen His elect, giving them the commission to spread the Good News of Salvation to the lost souls of this unbelieving world. And even though Christians often do personal acts of merciful deeds to those in need, they must keep their primary focus on eternal life, which is of far greater importance than this little existence which lasts only a few decades.

“That which is crooked cannot be made straight”
Ecclesiastes 1:15
.
The desire of this article is to stress the importance of receiving a new heart.
.
Listen… “And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor,
and though I give my body to be burned,
and have not charity, it profits me nothing!”
1st Corinthians 13:3
.
Without true, Christlike love, good works are meaningless. And God only gives that gift of true agape love to those who become “born again”: who receive “a new heart”… (John 3:7 & Ezekiel 36:26)

“And there appeared a great wonder in heaven;
a woman…
And there appeared another wonder in heaven;
and behold a great red dragon,
having seven heads and ten horns,
and seven crowns upon his heads…
And the serpent cast out of his mouth water as a flood after the woman,
that he might cause her to be carried away of the flood.”
