Summary
Zac Poonen warns that the greatest deception is not doing evil things, but losing personal devotion to Christ while remaining active in ministry and church. He emphasizes that devotion to Jesus—not church attendance, Bible reading, or doctrinal knowledge—is the most important thing in the Christian life, and believers must continually check whether their love for Christ is increasing or cooling, or risk becoming spiritual backsliders.
