Fighting Deceit

Do you hate being deceived?

I think everyone does. I think even deceivers hate being deceived.

So how do you get rid of deceit? You need a powerful weapon. You need a weapon that is able to do more than make deceivers’ eyes pop out of their heads as they run away. You need a weapon that will vaporize deceit. Love is able to do that.

You may think, “Don’t you need truth to fight against deceit?”

You do. Truth is in love. But love encompasses so much more than just truth. Therefore, it is a weapon powerful enough to not just fight against deceit, but obliterate it. Truth makes deceit stop fighting, but love eradicates it.
