2. The Power of Deceptive Words

Redefining words is one of the most subtle and powerful tactics for twisting the truth. Most argumentative questions come to us because people have an agenda and a desperate need to be right. They try to convince themselves what they believe is the truth even though it does not produce peace in their lives. We have the right Scripture but like the rich young ruler, we interpret it with our own definition of who our neighbor is. That is a deceptive word that corrupts, and we don’t even know it. Recognizing this will help reduce conflict and stress and remove confusion in understanding the Bible.
