Book Cover & Preview Text
Sin exists for a purpose. Its purpose is clearly given in the title of this chapter. It exists to destroy. In the hands of Satan, sin is on a mission to destroy you, me and all of humankind. He picks on us because he is so angry at God for evicting him from heaven that he decided to destroy God's crowning creation, humankind. We are at his mercy unless we take some evasive action to neutralize any tactics he may employ to reach his goal. Fortunately God has not left us defenseless. The scriptures contain weapons available to us to combat his advances, but they are no good to us if we are unaware they exist. We'll look at these weapons later, but first we need to know precisely what we are dealing with in this battle for survival.
