Except the Lord build the house, they labour in vain that build it: except the Lord keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain.

It's not possible for God to lie, or possible for the devil to speak truly.
That means the devil deceiver, cannot highlight about what vanity is, because it teaches vanity.
Guilty who takes the Lord's name in VAIN..
Deuteronomy 5:11 Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain: for the Lord will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.
It is not vanity for us to set our hearts on all the words the Lord has spoken, as opposite to vanity, this is OUR LIFE..
Deuteronomy 32:46 And he said unto them, Set your hearts unto all the words which I testify among you this day, which ye shall command your children to observe to do, all the words of this law.
47 For it is not a vain thing for you; because it is your life: and through this thing ye shall prolong your days in the land, whither ye go over Jordan to possess it.
In Job it is taught the vanity of the devil, labouring in vain, never given wisdom or understanding or fear..
Job 39:16 She is hardened against her young ones, as though they were not her's: her labour is in vain without fear;
17 Because God hath deprived her of wisdom, neither hath he imparted to her understanding.
These also happen to be the deceivers in thew ending times, without fear walking after their own lusts ( not after God instead) and their mouth does thew testified and warned speaking great swelling words ( of vanity)..
Jude 1:12 These are spots in your feasts of charity, when they feast with you, feeding themselves without fear: clouds they are without water, carried about of winds; trees whose fruit withereth, without fruit, twice dead, plucked up by the roots;
Jude 1:16 These are murmurers, complainers, walking after their own lusts; and their mouth speaketh great swelling words, having men's persons in admiration because of advantage.
Remembering Jobs testimony of the labour in vain, they labour in vain unless the Lord is building wit them..
Psalm 127:1 Except the Lord build the house, they labour in vain that build it: except the Lord keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain.
All we need to do is measure the Lords right things spoken against the devils ways, to speak wrong, which is to teach doing unrighteousness ( sometimes as they try to delicately allow the lie)...
Isaiah 45:19 I have not spoken in secret, in a dark place of the earth: I said not unto the seed of Jacob, Seek ye me in vain: I the Lord speak righteousness, I declare things that are right.
How does still having an unclean heart ( not a purified conscience ) mean anyone is saved, that is vanity teaching ?
The prophets made Israel VAIN, that no evil comes on man for doing evil, now they think they can speak the same ?
Jeremiah 4:14 O Jerusalem, wash thine heart from wickedness, that thou mayest be saved. How long shall thy vain thoughts lodge within thee?
Jeremiah 23:16 Thus saith the Lord of hosts, Hearken not unto the words of the prophets that prophesy unto you: they make you vain: they speak a vision of their own heart, and not out of the mouth of the Lord.
17 They say still unto them that despise me, The Lord hath said, Ye shall have peace; and they say unto every one that walketh after the imagination of his own heart, No evil shall come upon you.
Lamentations 2:14 Thy prophets have seen vain and foolish things for thee: and they have not discovered thine iniquity, to turn away thy captivity; but have seen for thee false burdens and causes of banishment.
The end of the deceiver seducer came, they just speak on in vanity, but are fully revealed..
Ezekiel 12:24 For there shall be no more any vain vision nor flattering divination within the house of Israel.
Ezekiel 13:7 Have ye not seen a vain vision, and have ye not spoken a lying divination, whereas ye say, The Lord saith it; albeit I have not spoken?
The first easy proof is them teaching to pray the same prayer, although this is the vanity of their ways...
Matthew 6:7 But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking.
God says why, because they became vain in their own imaginations...
Romans 1:21 Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.
22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
They became fools, because Gd has the thoughts of the wise to be VAIN..
1 Corinthians 3:19 For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, He taketh the wise in their own craftiness.
20 And again, The Lord knoweth the thoughts of the wise, that they are vain.
The deceiver says saved by grace, but it does not say that grace comess to man in vain, when man gives offence to others by working ill against them, without approving ourselves to God and man..( deceivers think doing some sins sometimes is somehow approving ourselves both to God and man)..
2 Corinthians 6:We then, as workers together with him, beseech you also that ye receive not the grace of God in vain.
2 (For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.)
3 Giving no offence in any thing, that the ministry be not blamed:
4 But in all things approving ourselves as the ministers of God, in much patience, in afflictions, in necessities, in distresses,
The testimony of God has spoken against the vanity, no unclean coveteous man inherits, and vain words and lying excuses do not cause us to inherit, thanks deceivers..
Ephesians 5:5 For this ye know, that no whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.
6 Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience.
No more vain glory, or vain deceit, no more spoiling,must be a pure conscience and no more of the vain jangling they daily gave, profane babblings as if that has use, they have no use these people/person, increasing more ungodliness..
Philippians 2:3 Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves.
Colossians 2:8 Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.
1 Timothy 1:5 Now the end of the commandment is charity out of a pure heart, and of a good conscience, and of faith unfeigned:
6 From which some having swerved have turned aside unto vain jangling;
7 Desiring to be teachers of the law; understanding neither what they say, nor whereof they affirm.
1 Timothy 6:20 O Timothy, keep that which is committed to thy trust, avoiding profane and vain babblings, and oppositions of science falsely so called:
21 Which some professing have erred concerning the faith. Grace be with thee. Amen.
2 Timothy 2:16 But shun profane and vain babblings: for they will increase unto more ungodliness.
Titus 1:10 For there are many unruly and vain talkers and deceivers, specially they of the circumcision:
any person who has read here would know the deceiver also says it cant bridle it's tongue, that nobody can, how much o they prove they are that vain lost one teaching against works to be all VANITY..
James 1:26 If any man among you seem to be religious, and bridleth not his tongue, but deceiveth his own heart, this man's religion is vain.
James 2:20 But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead?
