It seems to me that this lie that the Evil-one is telling us, there is no judgment, is reminiscent of the lie to Eve, thou shalt not surly die.

When the fear of judgment is removed, why should we do good, or what is right? When we pray the sinner’s prayer and are secure or are for sure going to Heaven, then why change our life?

Lord have mercy on us and rescue us from the deception of the Evil-One.

Truly Brother Reader Benjamin, if we just concetrate ourselves to the Jesus Prayer, we have, as Saint Paul has said, risen ourselves to the Third Heaven. Such, delusions of feeling good by doing nothing here, entering a new stage of living and growing are simply the devils work.

Lord Have Mercy.
