Test The Spirits

I was emailed this picture of a chalk drawing last week. This guy's artwork is absolutely amazing. Just glancing at that picture I could almost believe that the Coke bottle is real...almost. Of course, logically I know that it is not real because Coke bottles are not that big, appearances can be deceiving. I know that this Coke bottle is fake because I know what a real Coke bottle looks like.

The Bible warns us that not every spirit comes from God. In 1 John we read this:

Do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, for many false prophets have gone out into the world.

Keep in mind as you search spiritual things in this world, some things are spiritual but are not Christian...those things are demonic. Test the spirits, for the Spirit of God will always look like the God of the Bible. If it looks good, but it does not match up with the teachings of God's word, you can rest assured that it is not from God.

Don't be fooled by the oversized Coke bottles of spirituality. They may look great, but when compared with the real thing, the lie is quickly found out!
