Default Counterfeit

Hi, I am a newbie also.

I learned from someone that the best way to tell a counterfeit from the real thing is to study the real thing so much that you can tell the counterfeit the first time you see it.

That's the way bank employees are taught to tell one. They are taught to study a $20 bill so well, that they can detect the counterfeit one instantly. Don't study the counterfeit.

And, yes, the enemy will try to pull you away from your new belief a lot now. Just find a Bible you can read and understand and start underlining and highlighting all the verses that "grab" you. Even jot the ones you want to remember down in the front of that Bible so you will remember where they are when you need them. I am going to start trying to memorize some favorite verses with a friend of mine (even though she is Mormon) so that I will have His word in my hidden in my heart.

There are many ways you can combat the enemies' whispers. You just have to be diligent and hungry enough. God bless you.
