The Apostle Paul would have you and I to be good soldiers for Christ's cause and the advancement of His Kingdom. When we would be holy, when we would seriously strive to live out the truth of God's word, we will find that we will be opposed by the devil. As a true and sincere Christian, we not only find remaining sin in our hearts which needs to be put to death; we not only find worldly acquaintances who would suggest that we ought to follow them into every pursuit that leaves God out, and doesn't put God in; but we find that we are face to face with a real spiritual, fallen, angelic adversary who seeks to ruin every good thing that Christ would do in us and through us. This is the reason that we must put on the whole armor of God. We looked before at what the Apostle Paul would have us to do. It is to put on the whole armor; to put on Christ Himself.

So this afternoon I would like to attempt to show you the main methods which Satan uses to deceive and draw Christ's people, His soldiers, into sin. I would like to unveil 3 methods that Satan uses to do this.
