The Prophecies of Deceit
Matthew 7:15
Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.


They hinder repentance by bidding us believe

(1)  In delay: no need to repent now;

(2)  In an easy return to holiness;

(3)  That sin is not so dreadful as it is represented:

(4)  That repentance may be worse for us in the end, if we fall away from it;

(5)  That by some one great act we can atone for sin.

(J. M. Ashley.)
