As we have seen the last couple of days on the Daily Bible Verse Blog, God warns His people to avoid counterfeits. Here Paul explains the source of counterfeit religion—Satan, the master counterfeiter. He deceives the whole world ( Revelation 12:9 ). He disguises himself as the angel of light that he once was ( Isaiah 14:12 ; Ezekiel 28:12-15).
Christians must recognize and beware of Satan’s counterfeits, traps and devices. For more information, see “Is the Devil Real?” and “Are Demons Real?”
