Summary

(Genesis 3:1-5) Satan, like a subtle serpent, knows how to appeal to man and attack his weaknesses. Very often, he will use good things to make us do bad things. Other times, Satan will dilute truth with a small lie. His tactics have not changed since the beginning of time.   (0816240118)  Join Scott Pauley's study through Scripture this year.
