    We have, through Christ’s power, the ability to reduce our chances of becoming vulnerable to the attacks of Satan.

    WHEN THINKING ABOUT THE SCHEMES OF THE DEVIL DID YOU KNOW THAT ALL THE WARNINGS IN THE NEW TESTAMENT ABOUT CONFLICTS WITH SATAN AND HIS DEMONS ARE ADDRESSED ONLY TO CHRISTIANS? WHY? BECAUSE JESUS SAID THAT HE IS THE ONLY WAY TO GOD. SINCE JESUS IS THE ONLY WAY, THE ENEMY WANTS TO DO EVERYTHING ...read more

    We are engaged in a spiritual war. A serious battle. For the Christian, faith is not spelled "F-A-I-T-H" it is spelled "R-I-S-K." If something is not a risk, then it really does not require faith.
