Believing in your own lies results in: 1. A failure

to execute justice (7:5-7). 2. A persistence in ever-increasing sin

(7:8-11). 3. Spiritual deafness (7:21-29). 4. A false sense of

security (8:8-11). 5. Grief (8:18 - 9:2). What to do when you’ve

been believing your own lies: 6. Trust in God’s Character

(9:22-23).
