The word truth from the Girdle of Truth is ἀληθείᾳ (alētheia), meaning sincerity or not being hidden. Sincerity comes from two Latin words, "sine" & "cera," meaning "without wax." In the time of Paul, statues that did not have a hairline crack were priceless. When a crack developed in a statue, the owner took wax and rock dust and poured them into the cracks of the statue, making the statue appear perfect. The solution for the purchaser of the statue was to take the statue outside and let it sit in the sun until all the wax ran out of the cracks of the statue, obviously manifesting the hidden imperfections. Many of you look great on the outside, but have hairline cracks with wax and underneath the cosmetology of the heart, there is hidden, secret sin. God is turning up the heat and exposing the fakes, the phony, the pompous, and the religious stuffed shirts. Many Christians are covered in wax; put them in the heat and see how sincere they are.
What is the difference between a Playtex girdle and the Girdle of Truth? One is cosmetic, and the other is the real deal. Are you a cosmetic, Playtex Christian, or are you the real deal? Are you wearing a miracle, Playtex girdle or the Girdle of Truth? Are you real? Are you sincere? Are you rebellious, or are you righteous? Are you a counterfeit or consecrated? Are you artificial, or are you actual? Are you a pretender, or are you a possessor? Are you a buff for flakes and fruit theology? Are you a cookie-cutter, counterfeit Charismatic? Are you attracted to the ritual, or are you redeemed? Are you attracted to the ceremony, or are you attracted to Jesus Christ? Are you singing about a heaven you are never going to see? Do you want to feel good without being good? Are you trying to get into heaven while trying to live like hell?
Do you receive the truth with sincerity? Sincerity without truth is deception. Many are sincere about their false doctrine but are leading the hordes to hell. Deliverance ministers dialoguing with fake, made-up Charismatic spirits are sincere but are in the blows of deception. Charismatics looking for plastic in each other's ears are sincere but are in deception. Spiritual people blowing bubbles trying to communicate with goldfish are sincere but are in a watery deception.
Secular humanism is a doctrine of deception; man is not the answer. New age is deception. You can't hum into crystals and commune with God. Harmonizing with a glass of crystals will get you laryngitis, not the Lord of glory. Neo-paganism and flower-sniffing environmentalism, the worship of mother earth with all her earth spirits and dream catchers, is a demonic deception. Pagan momma earth and momma nature dupes the biblical illiterates and is deception. Eastern philosophies where man is god is deception.
