The lies we believe

Mar 17, 2019  •  Mike Burt

Sunday we move from Paradise to Paradise Lost! From a simple instruction by God to a monumental fail by man – the only tree to be left alone was observed, desired and then eaten. The three characters are the Serpent, Eve and Adam and each play an essential role in this epic fall. I will focus on two basic questions: 1) why did temptation work? 2) how do we overcome temptation? I am sure that if we understand the strategy of sin (which has not changed since the beginning of time!) we can better apply the methods God has given to overcome those many enticements.

Rarely do I say this is an essential message – this one is! Do whatever you can to attend, invite family and friends struggling with temptation and sin to hear why temptation works and how to overcome it.
