       Sin can do this in a couple different ways. First, it deceives a person because they believe that things are not sin when they really are. An unbeliever, for instance, may believe that fornication, sexual activity with another outside of marriage, is in fact ok, that it is acceptable. Sin is deceptive. People learn to ignore the consciences, to go against what they know they ought to do, and as they continue to ignore their consciences, then they end up deceived. and as they continue to ignore their consciences, then they end up deceived. They no longer feel the normal feeling that this or that is wrong. The second way sin deceives a person is by the false belief that one may be acceptable before God by being good enough. Almost all of false religion is built on this premise. It is built on the idea that a person is good or can be good enough in order to make God happy. And that is great deception indeed. We were all there at one point or another. Paul was there, I was there, you were there.
