What is with all of the cheating these days. I mean the papers are full of stories about the latest cheating scandal. There is Major League Baseball and it's steroid problem. I guess the same could be said for the NFL. Then there is Spygate and a lot of questions about how long this really has gone on. Most recently the cheating has crossed over to Nascar and the attempts at "an advantage" by some of their racers. Then there is the IU scandal and the "inappropriate" phone calls. I read the other day that most college coaches cheat but few get caught. What a sad testimony on our society when people who play games for a living cheat. What great role models for our kids. Of course cheating is nothing new. Politicians have been cheating for a long time. Kids in school have often cheated to get through a class. It does seem though that our society is growing more accepting of this horrible behavior all the time. It seems that so many say do what you have to do, even cheat, to win. This is such an unfortunate place we have come to in our society. With all of this going on around us it is Little wonder that so many live life seeming trying to cheat their way into heaven. I am reminded however that the Bible say, "Be not deceived, God is not mocked". God knows our hearts and their intent and we will not win if we are not being honest with Him.
