Biblical Understanding based on the Record of Scripture
Mankind's deception is made possible by his refusal, generally, to believe what God reveals to us. When we put God's template of truth up against what passes as Christianity today, we can see how that happens. The Church of God is not immune to this. We look at ways we might address this by embracing what God tells us of Himself in Isaiah 66:1-2.

Hebrews 12:3-5 NKJV
For consider Him, who endured such hostility from sinners against Himself, lest you become weary and discouraged in your souls.
You have not yet resisted to bloodshed (torture or death), striving against sin.
And you have forgotten the exhortation which speaks to you as sons: My son, do not despise the chastening of the LORD (Father), nor be discouraged when you are rebuked (corrected) by Him:
For whom the LORD (Father) loves He chastens (disciplines) and scourges every son He receives.
