The truth must be told and all the wicked plans of Satan must be exposed so you don't end up as firewood in hell.
Many see the work of evil, with its pain and loss, and question how this can exist under the rulership of the one who is infinite in wisdom, power and love. Those who are inclined to doubt take this as an excuse for rejecting the words of the Bible. Tradition and wrong interpretations have clouded the Bible's teaching about God's character, the nature of his government, and the principles of how He deals with sin.
Sin is an intruder for whose presence no one can give a reason. To excuse it is to defend it. If we could find an excuse for it, it would no longer be sin.
God takes no pleasure in forced allegiance, and He grants everyone freedom of will, so they can choose to serve Him voluntarily. Sin would not appear to be the evil thing it was until it have fully developed. In response to sin, God could use only righteousness and truth, while Satan can use what God could not, like flattery, deceit and any thing you can think of.
Satan and evil angels joined with evil humans beings against the Champion of truth. Whoever resist temptation ignite Satan's anger.
Satan's representatives try to deceive Christ's followers and draw them away from their loyalty, they twist scripture to achieve their goal. Why is it Satan meets no more resistance before Christian's? Because the soldiers of Christ have so little to no real connection with God. So many do not know that their enemy is a mighty general, warring against Christ. Even ministers of the gospel overlooks the evidence of Satan activities, they seem to ignore the fact that he even exists.
This alert enemy is intruding his presence into every household, churches, national councils, courts of laws, etc. He is busy perplexing, deceiving, seducing and ruining the souls and body's of men, women and children. He breaks up families, planting seeds of hatred, strife, rebellion and murder. The world seems to think God has decreed these things and so they must exist. All who are not committed followers of Christ are simply servants of Satan.
Following worldly customs converts the Church to the world and not the world to God. Familiarity with sin will cause it to seem less repulsive. The tempter often works successfully mostly through those whom we least suspect of being under his control. Satan can't overcome anyone without their own consent. The tempter has no power to control the will or force anybody to sin.
To disguise his real character, he has influenced people to portray him as something to ridicule or despises. He is pleased to be painted as comical, misshapen, half animal and half human. He is pleased to hear his name used in jokes and mockery. Because he has masked himself with superb skill, many people ask, "Does such a being really exist?" Because Satan can easily control the minds of those who are unaware of his influence, the word of God reveal to us his secret forces and this put us on high alert.
