“Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the
evidence of things not seen.” (Hebrews 11:1) but how do you tell the difference
between faith and vain imaginations? Vain imaginations can be pretty real sometimes and if we look for
proof we can find it. The power - the magic - by which miracles are preformed,
is universal, but the difference is if that power is used by an agent of the
devil or of God.
Remember when God wanted to take his people out of Egypt he
sent Moses and Aaron to Pharaoh. Aaron cast down the rod and it became a snake.
Then Pharaoh called his magicians and sorcerers. They also cast down their rods
and the rods became serpents, but Aaron’s serpent swallowed up their serpents. Many
other miracles did they do until Pharaoh let the people go. So how can you tell
the differences? By the peace that passes understanding and because you know
Gods voice as did Abraham when asked to sacrifice his son.
