Korah was trying to serve God on his own terms. We must avoid deceptive leaders and follow Christ with faithful obedience.

Satan's tactics are subtle. He masquerades as an angel of light so that the things he tempts us with look beautiful. However the only good and perfect gifts come from God. As believers we need to stay away from all things of satan. If God dwells in us, there will be no room for demons or darkness. www.crazylove.org
