The Face of True Evil

For such people are false apostles, deceitful workers, masquerading as apostles of Christ. And no wonder, for Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light. It is not surprising, then, if his servants also masquerade as servants of righteousness. Their end will be what their actions deserve.   2 Corinthians 11:13-15

Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness, who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter.   Isaiah 5:20

true evil has no face,

it shifts,

it moves,

swaying back and forth,

like grains of desert sand

in a gently blowing wind,

quietly infiltrating its way

into minds and souls,

silently settling in high and

mighty places,

enticing,

alluring;

irresistible;

the ultimate chameleon,

making changes so subtle,

they are barely perceptible,

taking shape without worry or care,

then magically disappearing,

into the thin night air,

changing evil into good,

changing good into evil;

deception in the name of innocence;

true evil has no face,

it goes by many names;

eminent domain,

manifest destiny,

god and country,

true religion,

the chosen race,

national pride,

the final solution;

to name a few;

when it has come and gone,

none but a few even realize

it has passed their way

at all.
