Beware of Wolves

I noticed that a dear Christian was going through a trying time, and a “kind” atheist gave his two cents worth. All he was trying to do, in the name of hugs, love, and concern for her well-being was to sow seeds of doubt about the promises of God. The woman needed to hear the exact opposite. Needless to say, his blog was stopped by the delete button. This graphic and typically wonderful quote from Charles Spurgeon will stir a hornet’s nest, but it is applicable to the situation: “A smooth tongue is a great evil; many have been bewitched by it. There be many human ant-eaters that with their long tongues covered with oily words entice and entrap the unwary and make their gain thereby. When the wolf licks the lamb, he is preparing to wet his teeth in its blood.”
