Deceive
When we say we are Christians and talk about the Lord but do not do what He says to do we are deceiving our self and those who watch us and hear us because it is more deceptive to have truth mixed with error. Our sins are a denial of Christ and we crucify Him afresh every time we sin. Jesus says if ye love me keep my commandments.
1 John 4:20
If a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not seen?
1 John 1:6
If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth:
1 John 1:8
If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
1 John 1:10
If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.
1 John 2:4
He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him.
