When you start lying to yourself and validating your sins you will start to deceive yourself and drift further away from God
When you validate your sins as to why God will be okay with it, when it clearly is stated in the Bible for you to turn away from it, these verses show what will become of it. When you stop fearing for your salvation and stop listening to feeling convictions, the feelings will eventually stop. You will start lying to yourself so well that you start believing yourself more then the word of God!
“26 If any man among you seem to be religious, and bridleth not his tongue, but deceiveth his own heart, this man’s religion is vain.”- James 1:26
“12 There is a way which seemeth right into a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death. 13 Even in laughter the heard is sorrowful; and the end of that mirth is heaviness. 14 The BACKSLIDER in heart shall be filled with his own ways: and a good man shall be satirists with himself.” - Proverbs 14:12-14
“12 Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.” - Philippians 2:12
“21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. 22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? 23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.” -Matthew 7:21-23
