Esther 4:13
"Then Mordecai commanded to answer Esther, Think not with thyself that thou shalt escape in the king's house, more than all the Jews."
Having a false sense of security only hurts one person: you! Esther had false hopes that the problems in her country would not affect her because she was the queen who lived in the palace. Mordecai reminded her that just because she lived in the palace didn't mean that she would get away with her life. Mordecai understood that eventually it would get out that she was a Jew, and that Haman would do all he could to have her killed as well.
One of the greatest contributors to apathy are false hopes. Jonah had a false hope that he could get away from the call of God on a ship going the opposite direction of his calling, but that hope proved false. Saul thought he could get away with not obeying all of God's commands because he was king, but that hope proved false. David thought he could get away with adultery by conceiving a plan to have Bathsheba's husband come home from the battle and sleep with her, but that hope proved false. False hopes have caused many people to avoid God's will and commit sin that destroyed their lives.
The false hope that your position in a church or society will enable you to commit a sin or avoid God's will without repercussions is simply a lie. Your position isn't higher than the commands of God. You may be able to use your position to get away with responsibilities for awhile, but eventually avoidance of responsibilities will catch up to you. Position has never saved someone from responsibilities or sin's consequences, and it will not save you.
Moreover, the false hope of location does not absolve you from responsibilities and sin's consequences. You can think that you can get away with doing wrong because you live in another country, but sin has a way of coming back to hurt you. You may think that where you live or came from can keep you from doing God's will, but you are still responsible to obey God and will be held accountable for your obedience.
Furthermore, denial of responsibilities and committing sin does not change the consequences. You can deny that your sin is not that bad, but you will still have to face the payment for it. You can deny that God really called you into full-time service, but God's calling is without repentance. You can deny your responsibility to reach the lost for Jesus Christ, but denial doesn't acquit you from God's commands. You can deny that you really don't owe tithes to God, but that doesn't stop the curse of God upon your finances.
Friend, you can trust in your false hopes, but you will soon find out how empty those false hopes are and how they will leave your vulnerable. The best way to avoid the consequences of trusting in false hopes is to simply do what you are supposed to do all the time. Don't avoid your responsibilities, fulfill them. Don't commit sin; flee from it. Don't fall for Satan's trap of getting you to put confidence in false hopes. Obedience to what God has commanded you to do is the only hope in which you should put your confidence. Obedience is truly the only hope that gives you the blessings you desire in life.
