Be Alert. Be Aware.

“The mold of the world is shaped by the schemes of the devil in order to deceive our minds away from the truths of God’s promises.” No matter what form Satan’s schemes playout, the end product is the same – our destruction.

Sacked by Satan

Satan hated this detestable godly man but since Satan is no match against God’s power, he tries to destroy what God loves.
Satan challenged God saying that Job only feared Him because Job had been blessed by Him, but if he lost everything, “He will surely curse you to Your face!” (Job 1:11) God allowed Satan to take all of Job’s prosperity, his sons and daughters, his livestock and his servants, but God drew a boundary around Job that Satan could not kill him.

The Gospel of Judas

Just prior to His betrayal, Jesus prayed to the Father, “While I was with them in the world, I kept them in Your Name. I have guarded them, and not one of them has been lost except the son perdition, that the Scripture might be fulfilled (John 17:12).
Son of perdition highlights Judas’ destined path of downfall and betrayal of Jesus, which ultimately led to his condemnation.
