Explicado para niños

Imagine if your friends were telling you that you could fly just by jumping off a tree, but your parents told you not to believe them because it's dangerous. That's what God is doing here. He's saying, 'Don't believe the lies, even if they sound good, because they can hurt you.'

Today, this verse reminds us to be cautious about believing everything we hear, especially advice or prophecies that sound too good to be true. For example, if someone promises quick success without hard work, it's important to verify their claims and not just trust their promises blindly.
