Crawl like a serpent, roar like a lion

Back to Man's religion & God's religion


"That no advantage may be gained over us by Satan; for we are not ignorant of his schemes." 2 Corinthians 2:11

Satan well knows both how to allure and how to attack—for he can crawl like a serpent, and he can roar like a lion! He has snares whereby he entangles, and fiery dartswhereby he impales.

Most men are easily led captive by him at his will, ensnared without the least difficulty in the traps that he lays for their feet—for they are as ready to be caught as he is to catch them! Why would Satan need to roar against them as a lion, if he can wind himself around them and bite them as a serpent?
