Beware of touts and peddlers!

By Buti Sam Kputu

She came to the airport eager to travel, only to find out at the check-in counter that her visa was fake. So, instead of boarding her on a flight, they bundled her to the police, done in by visa touts.

Touts are people who aggressively market goods and services, often to those who are ignorant or too much in a hurry. They come either as facilitators who truly help or as exploiters, who peddle products they know to be fake. These are dangerous crooks.

As in natural life so it is in the spiritual; there are touts, hawkers and peddlers. Jesus warned of “wolves in sheep clothing”. Apostle Paul warned of “peddlers of another gospel and another Jesus”. [Mat.7:15; 2 Cor.11:4]

We are living in the very last of the last days. We need to be alert so we do not fall prey to spiritual touts, peddlers and hawkers of another gospel, another Jesus and of cheap grace. They can do you and your faith harm – ETERNALLY!
