Deceit is subtle, but deadly.
It comes hidden in a smile or a gift or a flattery
and may look attractive.
It is a lie or an imitation.
It masquerades as something different than what it is.
It is never transparent and is a trickery
upon innocent lives.
It is a trap.
It is hateful and selfish and will try to present
untruth as truth.
It has no good intent.
A little bit is always too much!
"The thoughts of the righteous are right. but the counsels of the wicked are deceitful."
Proverts 12:5 NKJ
"He who hates, disguises it with his lips, and lays up deceit within himself."
Proverbs 26:24 NKJ
"A Lying tongue hates those who are crushed by it, and a flattering mouth works ruin."
Proverbs 26:28 NKJ
