Fake Diamonds
Consider for a moment if you will, the similarities between a diamond and the fake stone known as cubic zirconium. Both possess a certain clarity and sparkle, yet one is considered precious, while the other falls into the category of cheap jewelry.
In similar manner, sometimes sin can appear very appealing, yet when more closely examined, the foundation of sin is evil, and its path leads to destruction. This is how Satan works. He masks evil to make it appeal to man's senses. Our flesh may tingle and find pleasure for a time while flirting with sin, but just when you think your sins will never find you out, it does, and this is when heartbreak begins, families are often devastated, and marriages begin to crumble. Of course, there is also the personal price we pay spiritually.
Just as you would not purchase a beautiful diamond haphazardly, we should not take our spiritual welfare for granted. Test and try all things to see if they are from God or Satan; fleeing from evil, and cleaving to goodness.
Do you desire a good life? Then seek God, and do not be mislead by cheap imitations.
