Fast forward to today's times. All we, who are not Jews and who are Jews, who believe Jesus Christ is the Son of God, the Creator and one true God, and that he died for our sins and was raised from the dead is a member of the one true vine, Jesus Christ. We believers are, all over the world, family in Christ. We have one common enemy, Satan. And he has an army, demons, who are here to engage us in spiritual battle and destroy us in every way possible; our unity as one brotherhood, our identity in Christ, and steal the truth from our minds and hearts.
How does the enemy steal the truth from our hearts? He takes a little bit of truth, puts his spin on it and influences us to believe lies. Read the creation story. See how Eve was tricked and influenced because she wasn't faithful, grateful nor believed what God told her. Even she added on to what God had said to she and Adam. Keep your hearts in check. Stay your mind on God and his ways. Daily make a mental list of what you're thankful for. Read and study the Bible for yourself. Do not take someone else's word for it. Pray throughout the day. Be sober and alert. This world is temporary but eternity... Well, that's forever.
