There has been a strange silence within Christendom concerning the existence, the purpose, and the work of Satan to destroy men’s lives. This silence is the result of ignorance to the rules of engagement between Christ and Satan: rules centering on the Ten Commandment Law. And yet, in the days of Christ and His Apostles, all was known concerning the boundaries of Satan’s legal jurisdiction and how his authority was to be overruled. The many snares he entraps men to commit sin were all identified. Nothing was omitted concerning his threats against life. The Apostle Paul verifies this understanding, "Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices." II Cor.2:11. Today’s Christianity is woefully ignorant of Satan’s devices.

       The devil’s tools of entrapment have only one objective: to lead you and me to violate the same Law that condemns him: specifically, the Ten Commandment Law. This is verified by GOD’S Words to Satan, "Thou hast sinned: therefore I will cast thee as profane out of the mountain of God: and I will destroy thee, O covering cherub." Eze.28:16. It was Satan’s mutiny against the Ten Commandments that inaugurated the very first "war in heaven." It was Satan’s defiance against GOD’S Law that he "was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him." Rev.12:9. It was defiance to GOD’S Law that led Adam and Eve into sin. It was man’s defiance of GOD’S Law that led the Jews and Romans to unite to murder the GOD Who came to save—even them. And it will be man’s ultimate, globally legislated defiance of GOD’S Law that leads to Earth’s final battle, Armageddon.

John 3:1-5 There was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews: The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher come from God: for no man can do these miracles that thou doest, except God be with him. Jesus answered and said unto him,, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born? Jesus answered, (v.5) Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and ___ _____ __________, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.

7. In the assurances given to us by our religious leaders why are we to be guarded in our acceptance of their words?

II Corinthians 11:13-15 For such are ________ __________, ___________ _________, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ. And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.

8. How can we know when we are on safe ground?

Isaiah 8:20 To _____ ______ [the Ten Commandments of GOD] and to _____ ___________________ [the Holy Bible]: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them.

Isaiah 34:16 Seek ye out of the book of the LORD, and read; ____ _____ of these _______ ________.

9. Are there people who live justly and who do not have a first hand knowledge of the gospel of Jesus Christ or the teachings of Scripture?

Romans 2:13-15 (For not the hearers of the law are just before God, but ______ ________ of the law _______ _____ _________________. For when the Gentiles, which have not the law, do by nature the things contained in the law, these, having not the law, are a law unto themselves: (v.15) Which _______ _____ _______ ____ _____ _____ ___________ ___ _______ _________, and their thoughts the mean while accusing or else excusing one another;)

       This principle is truly precious. It assures the grand nature of GOD’S salvation, declaring that multitudes of American Indians, Chinese, Eskimos, Islanders, people from around the globe who never heard the name of Christ nor had the knowledge of the great controversy between Christ and Satan over the Ten Commandment Law, will be in heaven. They lived up the light of their understanding and they refused to violate their conscience concerning the leading of the Holy Spirit in their lives.

Zechariah 13:6 And one shall say unto him, _______ _____ _______ __________ ____ ________ _______? Then he [Jesus Christ] shall answer, Those with which I was wounded in the house of my friends.

       The above verse teaches that many will hear the gospel of Christ for the first time in heaven. All throughout time, GOD has known His own in every walk of life and in every religion. And in our day, He will gather them for the last great test to come to the human race as the end of earth’s present history draws near "out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation" Rev.5:9.

10. Does Satan want man to be ignorant concerning the teachings of the Holy Bible?

Hosea 4:6 [GOD said,] ____ ___________ _____ ____________ ____ ______ ___ _______________:because thou [the ruling church leaders] hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children.

11. What miracles are employed by Satan to lead people to reject the very Law Jesus Christ honored to redeem mankind?

Deuteronomy 18:9-12 When thou art come into the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee, thou shalt not learn to do after the abominations of those nations. (v.10) There shall not be found among you any one that maketh his son or his daughter to pass through the fire [sacrificing human life to appease an angry god], or that useth ______________ [psychic or fortune telling powers], or ___ ____________ ___ _______ [astrology], or ___ _____________ [hypnosis], or ___ __________ [those who ally themselves with demon angels for supernatural power], (v.11) Or ___ ____________[use of superstitions], or ___ ____________ ______ __________ __________ [open interaction with Satan’s demon angels], or ___ ____________ [magicians and sorcerers], or ___ _________________ [open interaction with supposedly deceased human beings]. For all that do these things are an abomination unto the LORD: and because of these abominations the LORD thy God doth drive them out from before thee. Thou shalt be perfect with the LORD thy God. For these nations, which thou shalt possess, hearkened unto observers of times, and unto diviners: but as for thee, the LORD thy God hath not suffered thee so to do.

       These verses give a crash course on the dangers of spiritualism: everything from selling the jurisdiction of your life to the spirit-world for power, wealth, pride and lust, to having communication with the dead. This includes the great disgrace of the popes, cardinals and bishops who are leading Catholic congregations to turn to the Virgin Mary and the dead saints for intercession, guidance and blessing. The Bible could not be any more clear on this: "For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus; Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time." I Tim.2:5,6.

       About 3,400 years ago, GOD, through the pen of Moses exposed the harmful practices in which the children of GOD were never to participate in; but should they fall prey to these traps of the devil and become ensnared there would be great difficulty of escape due to the nature of these practices and the real source of their achievement: Satan.

12. Can Satan raise up false prophets and false Christs to counterfeit GOD'S work of redemption?

Deuteronomy 13:1-3 If there arise among you a prophet, or a dreamer of dreams, and giveth thee a sign or a wonder, And the sign or the wonder come to pass, whereof he spake unto thee, saying, Let us go after other gods, which thou hast not known, and let us serve them; (v.3) Thou shalt ______ ____________ ______ _____ _______ ____ _______ _________, or ________ ___________ ____ _________, for the LORD your God proveth you, to know whether ye love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul.

Deuteronomy 18:22 When a prophet speaketh in the name of the LORD, if the thing follow not, nor come to pass, that is the thing which _____ _______ _____ ______ _______ _____ ___________, but the prophet hath spoken it presumptuously: thou shalt not be afraid of him.

13. Will Satan’s servants pretend to be loyal followers of Jesus Christ?

(v.18) And this she did many days. But Paul, being grieved, turned and said to the spirit, I command thee in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her. And he came out that same hour.

II Corinthians 11:12-15 But what I do, that I will do, that I may cut off occasion from them which desire occasion; that wherein they glory, they may be found even as we. [v.13] For such are ________ apostles, _____________ workers, transforming themselves into the apostles of Christ. And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.

14. Just how destructive is the spirit of selfish gain in the Christian Church?

I Timothy 6:10 For the love of money ____ _____ _________ ____ ____ _________: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.

15. What other sins of Satan have ensnared multitudes of professing Christians into disobedience to the gospel of Jesus Christ?

Galatians 5:19-23 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; ___________ [unfaithful to wedlock], ______________ [sexual immorality], uncleanness [impurity], ___________________ [morally unrestrained], (v.20) ____________ [placing exaggerated value on people, ideas and materials], witchcraft [ungodly demonstrations of power], hatred, _____________ [striving competitively against another], emulations [rivalry with malice], _________ [actions of rage], strife [selfish ambition], seditions [unreasonable opposition to authority], heresies [opposing opinions to the everlasting truth of GOD’S Law as demonstrated through the sacrifice of Jesus Christ], (v.21) Envyings [spiteful jealousy], murders, _______________ [habitual intoxication], revellings [mocking merriment], and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God. But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law."

Jeremiah 3:5 Will he reserve his anger for ever? Will he keep it to the end? Behold, thou hast __________ and _______ evil things as thou ____________.

Matthew 5:28 But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her ______ ____________ ___________ ______ ____ already in his heart.

       A most profound principle is rarely if ever addressed from the pulpit: men will be judged by the sins they would have committed had they been given opportunity. The secret cherished sin is all that is needed to disqualify the presence of the Holy Spirit from the human soul. But this truth must be united with the other Biblical truth declaring that our suffering temptation is not the same as sinning. It is only by entering the temptation, indulging its pleasure that leads to sin "and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death." Ja.1:15.

Jeremiah 50:31 Behold, I am against thee, 0 thou _________ __________ saith the Lord GOD of hosts: for thy day is come, the time that I will visit thee. (v.32) And the most proud shall __________ ____ _____, and _______ shall raise him up: and I will kindle a fire in his cities, and it shall devour all round about him.

Proverbs 26:12 Seest thou a man _______ ____ _____ _____ __________? there is _______ _______ ____ ____ _______ than of him.

Proverbs 6:16-19 These six things doth the LORD hate: yea, seven are an abomination unto him: (v.17) A _________ ________, a ________ __________, and ________ _______ ________ _____________ _________, (v.18) An heart that deviseth __________ ________________, feet that be swift in __________ ____ __________, (v.19) A _______ __________ that speaketh lies, and he that __________ ____________ among brethren.

I John 4:20 If a man say, I love God, and _______ _____ ____________, he is a liar: for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not seen?

I John 2:11 But ____ ______ _________ _____ _________ ____ ____ _______________, and walketh in darkness, and knoweth not whither he goeth, because that darkness hath blinded his eyes.

I John 3:15 Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer: and ye know that ____ _____________ _______ __________ _______ abiding in him.

Revelation 21:8 But the ____________, and ______________, and the ______________________, and murderers, and

___________________, and _____________, and ____________, and all _______, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.

16. How successful is Satan’s work leading Christians to renounce GOD’S call to repentance and perish in their sins?

Matthew 7:13, 14 Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and _______ there be which go in thereat. (v.14) Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and ______ there be that find it.

       Another profound principle is rarely if ever addressed by the churches of the world: the fact that Peter used the word scarcely to describe the extremely low number of the redeemed among professing Christians. This fact declares that the vast majority of professing Christians will not escape the condemnation of sin. Christ’s call to "Repent" has been overruled by sin-loving leaders within the church. Living in open sin and leading others to follow their example guarantees the destruction of these men and all who follow them (Matt.5:19; 15:14). Faith and sin are not partners in salvation. GOD cannot and will not encourage the transgression of His Sacred Law. To do so would make Him an associate of Satan in the destruction of His children.

Mark 7:6-9 He [Jesus] answered and said unto them, Well hath Esaias prophesied of you hypocrites, as it is written, This people honoureth me with their lips, but their heart is far from me. Howbeit in vain do they worship me, _____________ _____ ________________ _____ __________________ ____ _______. For laying aside the commandment of God, ye hold ______ _________________ _____ ______, as the washing of pots and cups: and many other such like things ye do. And he said unto them, Full well ye reject the commandment of God, that ye may keep your own ____________.

Isaiah 5:20 Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put _______________ for _____________, and _______________ for ___________________; that put _______________ for _____________, and _________________ for ____________________. ______ ______ __________ _________ ______ ________ ____ ________ ______ _______ _____ ____________ ____ _______ _____ _____________.
