Jam 3:6 The word for deceives is the present active participle of planao which is planon meaning to deceive, to lead others away from the truth, to cause to wander, to lead others aside. Any area that you do not have sound doctrine in is an area open to deception. It means to lead or be led astray, and it is used most often concerning false teachers. Deception is the demonization of the soul and personality of the believer or unbeliever living in the cosmic system (“the world”). Deception is thought transference of demon doctrine to the believer or unbeliever in the cosmic system (“the world”).
