It never ceases to amaze me,how the unsaved think their particular sin is a better pathway to God than the next ones sin.In my own family I notice this. Like, my mother and sister and some cousins are into the occult. I have an aunt I THOUGHT had more sense, but I see now she's completely deceived,just as much as any of them. Like,now she constantly harps on the ufos are going to be the salvation of Mankind, the ufos, this, that.Now we know the occult is a demonic deception.{Seances, astrology,etc.}So she knocks that, yet this ufo nonsense. Let's face it,the" ufos"popped up at the same time as all the other occult mania surfaced.Also, Christian viewpoints I've read,mostly say that's demons trying to deceive us.Second,while knocking other deceived people, she believes in evolution, and you know where that's at. So, 2 points, 1, part of the deception I believe is the sinner while noticing others sins, thinks they found "The Way",and 2,the fact that it seemed in the past she wasn't as "far gone" in the deception, and at times I even thought she was turning the right way, shows me the verse,"Some peoples sins are manifest from the beginning, and others are not made manifest until later on".Agree?

One thing consistent about the devil is he lies about God and reality. Society's picture of God has been distorted by the father of lies, whose first sin was to cause doubt in God's goodness, "Did God really say?" and first lie was that God's Word was not true "You shall not surely die" and His 2nd lie was God can't be trusted "God knows in the day you eat from the tree you will be like God" and strongly suggests that departure from the way of truth is a pathway to enlightenment (Genesis 3:1-5). Now because the devil is a fiction writer (he re-writes history, science, news and current events) it is nothing unusual that "science fiction" and even his predictions of zombies and et cetera (his apocalyptic vision for the future is also filled with the same deception by his nature) have mostly all come into being since the Word of God was removed from public education in 1963 after we stopped praying for protection in 1962 when we removed "The Lord's Prayer" from public school and the petition, Lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil" was not prayed suddenly by about 50,000,000 people or so on one specific date and history meaning we lost a lot of prayer cover.
That move of removing the Lord's prayer also helped erase the teaching of Jesus to put God's priorities first in our prayers and ushered in the "anthropocentric" or "man-centered" praying which is so common nowadays. Hardly anyone actually forgets all their own problems and prays God's Name and truth would flood the Land. That His Kingdom would flourish and appear at His 2nd coming, and that everyone and everything on earth would be done exactly as it's being done in heaven.
These two things deception and man-centeredness, even in the church, come from the removal of Bible and The Lord's Prayer in schools, at least in America...

Whoops! His first sin was pride in wanting to be "like God" -- Isaiah 14, Ezekiel 28...
His first sin on earth was to cause doubt in God's Word, "Did God really say?" He does not need a new lie -- the old ones worked well enough, He still labors to undermine God's Word, notice how Jesus responded, "It is WRITTEN" (Matt 4, Luke 4)...
Also notice the same pride in attempting to be "like God" that brought him down was used effectually to bring the holy pair down to his level and under his authority and dominion... At least until God searched them out, and uttered the protus evangellium, or first gospel, that God would bring forth a 2nd Man and Last Adam to crush the serpent's head (authority)...
Father we ask You shine the Dominion of Christ over all, till the Kingdoms of This World become the Kingdoms of our God and of His Christ... Hasten the 7th Trumpet (Rev 11:5), Amen and amen (2 Cor 1:20).
