Excellent 'angle'! Self deception...with the desire to be "right" in one's own eyes!

Your paragraph: "Self-deception causes a false assurance of salvation, a false sense of righteousness, and results in active rebellion toward Yah. This can happen whenever we form our own beliefs without diligent effort on making lifetime progress applying the truth. It is most likely to occur when we have strong emotional attachments to any so-called “organized” religion. If you are in rebellion to Yah and resisting Him writing His Torah within you, you are in rebellion to His covenant terms. And worse -"

Forming our own beliefs....defining "our" truth.... great insight!

Messiah prayed for us: Sanctify them in Thy truth...Thy word is Truth! He defines, He writes, He saves.....

Peace, my friend!
