Genesis 31:45-50
New International Version (NIV)
So Jacob took a stone and set it up as a pillar. He said to his relatives, “Gather some stones.” So they took stones and piled them in a heap, and they ate there by the heap. Laban called it Jegar Sahadutha, and Jacob called it Galeed. Laban said, “This heap is a witness between you and me today.” That is why it was called Galeed. It was also called Mizpah, because he said, “May the LORD keep watch between you and me when we are away from each other. If you mistreat my daughters or if you take any wives besides my daughters, even though no one is with us, remember that God is a witness between you and me.”
Cheating comes directly from the nature of the Devil. The Bible is so thick with a library of sixty-six books and you will never find one passage that would ever say that God cheated someone. Cheating comes from the Devil. At the first appearance of the Devil on earth in the Garden of Eden, he cheated Adam and Eve and successfully made them cheaters before God forever. The Devil cheats in all his ways. He is a cheater and everyone in this world know that and yet there are some who are willing to serve him by living a life of a cheat.
Why do you cheat in all your ways? Simply because you are certain that you will not be caught or assume that you are above the laws of God somehow. With the help of someone more powerful who is a condoner of your sins and who is as evil as you are to help you out when you are in trouble with the law, you would cheat the poor with no fear of God. If you despise the poor in your heart just because you are wealthy, and deliberately cause misery to the poor and think that you have all the power in the world to shut their mouths from complaining then you will be proven wrong soon for, God is on their side and not on the side of evildoers. You will know it soon.To be continued....
