Truth or Delusion? - Ep. 865 - March 6, 2026

When does deception turn into Delusion, and what does Scripture say happens when people reject Truth? A raw, Bible-centered Podcast conversation. In Ep. 865 of The Smith and Rowland Show (March 6, 2026), Jeff and Alan unpack the difference between deception and delusion, and why it matters in everyday life. They connect the dots from Jesus' warning in Matthew 24:4 to Paul's words in 2 Thessalonians 2, where rejection of the love of the Truth leads to "strong delusion" and believing a lie. Along the way, the conversation hits hard topics that many avoid:  * How deception can start with seductive ideas, then grow into settled delusion  * Why "my truth" thinking doesn't stay harmless  * The line between being deceived and becoming a deceiver  * What Proverbs 1 and Romans 1 reveal about God's patience, mercy, and judgment  * Why fear often fuels the lies people choose to believe  * A personal story about prayer, experience, and how bad teaching can shape what you think God will or won't do If you care about discernment, biblical Truth, and staying clear-headed in confusing times, this episode will sharpen you.
