If you believe everything people tell you, you will fall for everything. And lots of people have lots to say right now. Knowing the Word helps us discern the fallen, the deceived, the deceivers and the fakers in the natural and in the spiritual.
If you do not have a Bible, get one. If you need help understanding it, there are multiple resources available to help you. I read the KJV and cross reference it with a 4-volume Interlinear Bible (translates Greek and Hebrew and is coded with Strong’s KJV Concordance.) Among other reference tools, I keep Matthew Henry’s Commentary in my library because it is heavily based on the KJV. There might come a time when online Bibles and resources might not be available. Keep extra Bibles for others. Most importantly keep the living Word activated in your mind and in your heart daily.
Apostle Peter said: And if the righteous scarcely be saved, where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear? (1 Pet. 4:18)
For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect. (Mat. 24:24)
Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: (Does it pass the litmus test of the Word and the Holy Spirit’s guidance? Remember the Word was written by men who were inspired by the same Spirit. If it does not pass the test, discard it immediately! Can’t stress enough how important this is. ) because many false prophets are gone out into the world. (1 Jn. 4:1)
Even though the great Apostle Paul received revelations through the Holy Spirit, he still studied. The cloak that I left at Troas with Carpus, when thou comest, bring with thee, and the books, but especially the parchments. (2 Tim. 4:13)
