Deception

Cheetos... Cheetos are so good, such a delicious chip like snack. They are perfect to take when you go on a picnic and even better when you put a few of them in your sandwich. They are also great to munch on while you are watching a football game or something on TV.

Cheetos and so many other chips and snacks are delicious to the taste, but as we all know they are not the best for us. One reason why they are not so good for us is because they are practically man made. There are so many ingredients that are added to these sorts of charts that are created from the periodic table of the elements. Like my favorite TBHQ. Those creations are not something that we should be putting into our body, it's bad for them.

But why do we do it?

It's because Cheetos taste so good and their advertising technique just draws us in with their cartoon cheetah. It's a bunch of individual not so good ingredients that when combined together they make something delicious.

That is exactly how the adversary works! Satan will put a bunch of bad things together to make it look like it would be a great thing. But in the long run it isn't. He will make us think that doing one small little sin isn't bad but in the long run as we so that small sin over and over it draws us farther away from Christ.

We have to watch out for those little things like TBHQ and not put them into our bodies. Although Cheetos are great and are created from a bunch of not so good things, Satan is not and we have to watch out for all of his little ingredients; and say no when his temptations arise!
