    based on 5 ratings
     | 10,710 views

    Satan wants to keep us from making progress in our spiritual life. With the Lord’s help, though, we can keep on climbing. To avoid sin’s tragedy, learn Satan’s strategy.

    Opening illustration: Pastor Dale Kurtz laughed so hard that his sides ached. He was watching a frustrated squirrel trying to climb the metal pole supporting a bird feeder. The squirrel repeatedly got part way up, then slowly slid down the pole in a heap. In describing this incident, Kurtz wrote, ...read more

    We are not fighting in spiritual warfare so that Christ may ultimately win. Christ already won. The victory came on resurrection morning. You can triumph over your enemy the devil because Jesus triumphed.
