"DECEPTION"!

Philippians 4:19 (KJV) "But MY GOD shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus." Today there is some discussion about Islam and Christianity worshipping the same "GOD" and that we should all just get along. I have read just enough of the Quran to know that the god of Islam is not the same as the GOD of Israel, Isaac, and Jacob. I am no bible scholar, as a matter of fact, I have not EVER been known as any scholar! But I do know enough about scripture to know that "my God" is a caring, loving, compassionate GOD. JESUS responded to the S&P in the book of Mark 12:28-34 (KJV) "And one of the scribes came, and having heard them reasoning together, and perceiving that he had answered them well, asked him, Which is the first commandment of all? And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord: And thou shalt LOVE the "LORD THY GOD" with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment. And the second is like, namely this, Thou shalt LOVE thy neighbour as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these. And the scribe said unto him, Well, Master, thou hast said the truth: for there is one GOD; and there is none other but HE: And to LOVE him with all the heart, and with all the understanding, and with all the soul, and with all the strength, and to love his neighbour as himself, is more than all whole burnt offerings and sacrifices. And when Jesus saw that he answered discreetly, he said unto him, Thou art not far from the kingdom of God. And no man after that durst ask him any question." There is but ONE GOD! Even the Scribes concurred. The enemy has been using DECEPTION since Creation was established to try to confuse and mislead people. The TRUTH is not always EASY to believe. Evil has had a knack for deception as early as Genesis 3 when scripture records "Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made". Who is "YOUR GOD"? Or have you been "DECEIVED" into believing that you don't need a god (Selfism)? Deception works by getting people to believe things that aren't "TRUE" when the "TRUTH" is readily available to them. Don't be "snookered"!
