그리고 내가 말하는 건, 이는 누구든지 유혹적인 말로 너희를 속이지 못하게 하려 함이라. 비록 내가 육체로는 떠나 있지만, 그러나 나는 영적으로 당신과 함께 있습니다, 당신의 주문을 기뻐하고 바라보며, and the stedfastness of your faith in Christ (골로새서 2:4-5)
In the previous verses, Paul wrote to the saints at Colosse about the preeminence of Christ in creation, in redemption, and in the church and the sufficiency of Christ. He wrote about Jesus Christ, who is the image of the invisible God, the Firstborn of every creature and the Head of the body; 교회, in whom all fulness dwells and in whom allthe treasures of wisdom and knowledge are hid.
Paul had revealed to them Jesus Christ and what the message of the true gospel of Jesus Christ is all about, so that they would not have a lack of knowledge of the truth and wouldn’t be deceived if they held on to the truth.
누구든지 유혹적인 말로 너희를 속이지 못하게 하라
When Paul wrote these words to the saints at Colosse, Paul was imprisoned in Rome. But although Paul was imprisoned and physically absent, Paul saw in the spirit the state of the saints at Colosse and how the church was functioning.
The Holy Spirit revealed to Paul their order and steadfastness of their faith in Jesus Christ and was rejoiced
그렇지만, Paul knew the strategies, attacks, and works of the devil and knew that the devil wouldn’t leave them alone.
Paul knew that the devil would try everything to disturb the order and steal and destroy their 믿음 그리스도 안에서.
Therefore Paul not only revealed to them the truth, so that they had a full insight and didn’t have a lack of knowledge regarding the truth, but also that no one would deceive them with enticing words and draw them away from the truth of Jesus Christ and become sidetracked.
What are enticing words?
What are enticing words? Enticing words are fallacious reasonings that deviate from the truth and derive from the carnal wisdom of man. Enticing words arouse strong attraction or interest and are alluring, but contain a deceptive and destructive character.
They may seem spiritual, true, and coming from God but in reality, they are deceptive and destructive and cause apostasy.
What is the purpose and result of enticing words?
여러 시대에 걸쳐, the tactics, attacks, and works of the devil have not changed. We still see the devil doing all he can to deceive the saints and make them doubt the words of God and leave the words of God and their faith in Jesus Christ. All the devil wants is people to believe his words and follow and obey his words and do his will, so that the devil can execute his will in people’s lives and on earth and cause chaos and destruction (또한 읽어보세요: 마귀의 일을 멸하는 것이 아니라 하나님의 일을 멸하는 것).
The devil not only works in 마음, but he also uses people to execute his will. 그는 사람을 이용한다, who are led by the flesh and believe his lies and consider his lies as the truth.
And so there are many preachers, who are carnal and attract and deceive people with their enticing words.
They mix the words of God with their own words and/or the words of other people and come up with all kinds of new doctrines that derive from a carnal mind, 초자연적 경험, or mystical revelations.
Although their words seem spiritual, true, and coming from God, 실제로, their words are deceptive and cause the saints to become lukewarm, unstable, disobedient to the words of God and His will and leave the faith in Jesus Christ and rely on their own flesh; 육신의 지식과 지혜, 통찰력, 능력, (knowledge and wisdom of) the world and follow after signs and wonders (또한 읽어보세요: 표적과 기사를 위해 예수를 따르다).
They are not concerned with the souls of people, but they are concerned with themselves and are greedy for power, 돈, 그리고 명성. Therefore they don’t preach what God wants them to preach, but they preach what people want to hear.
And so many don’t preach the gospel of Jesus Christ anymore, but a gospel of man, in which the will of God, 죄, 피, 신성화, 심판, and hell are eliminated and the will of man and the lusts and desires of the flesh have become the center.
Why so many people are deceived by enticing words?
안타깝게도, many people are deceived by enticing words, because they do not know the Word of God. They don’t read, study the Word of God, and don’t search the Scriptures for the will and truth of God, but they rely upon the words of man instead. And so many believers have deviated and are no longer steadfast in the faith of Christ, but they have compromised and have gone the way of the world.
Let us take the warnings of the Word and the Holy Spirit seriously and remove all doctrines that diametrically oppose the Word. Let us repent and return to Jesus Christ and pick up our cross daily and follow the real Jesus Christ; 말씀, so that we remain steadfast in the faith until the end and honor and exalt Jesus Christ and God our Father with our lives.
