The devil¡¯s snare!

The devil’s snare!

The devil captures a person alive to do its will!

A. Mr. Floyd was a promising young man up to his early 20s!

1. He tried to stay out of trouble! --> On the right track!

2. He tried to help others to stay out of trouble! --> On the right track!

3. He became member of a church! --> Supposed to be the best can happened!

    ? What made him took that deadly turn to have a 10 year long criminal activities!

    ? Which included robbed a pregnant woman at gun point in her home!

4. He ended his life at the gruesome death under the knee of a police May 25, 2020!

5. Today is June 16, 2020 many are still protesting because his death!

6. People try to make Mr. Floyd death greater than the death of Mr. Martin Luther King 52 years ago?

7. Martin Luther King had a dream:

    One day my 4 little children will be judged by the content of their character not the color of their skin!

B. Mr. Floyd content of his character up to his early 20s!

1. Everything was on the right track to a great man!  He was able to enter Southern Florida State University!

2. Then the content of his 10 years long criminal activities!

    Which even included robbed a pregnant woman at gun point in her home!

3. Now which content of his character ended him died a gruesome death!?

    Yes, everyone saw the content of his 10 years long criminal activities leaded him to this gruesome death!

4. The great Martin Luther King’s dream was perfect!

    These protesters try to make him better known then Mr. Martin Luther King?

C. Lots of young people grew up in this church of Christ!

1. They are everywhere making the world a better place!

    How much I wish Mr. Floyd was here grew up in this church!

    Our young people would have another great basketball play mate!  How wonderful can this be!!!

2. Even some dropped out from this church!  Still living a good life!

3. I have yet to know someone grow up in this church then engage in criminal activities!

4. All are welcome to come check us out!  Look at our many albums!

5. Wise mothers made sure their children come to grow up in this church …

D. Hide your lives with Christ in God! Col.3:3

1. This way, you are perfect!  Satan’s snare can’t trap you!

2. To us Satan is stupid!  But to others Satan is clever!

3. Like smoke cigarette!  The first suck of it is so bad it makes you cough!

    Suck means draw into the mouth by contracting the muscles of the lip and mouth!

4. See!  God has a build in prevention for every human not to smoke cigarette!

5. One has to determine to find a way to overcome that bad feeling to become addicted to it!

6. Human determines to get into sins!  He has to get out the same way himself!  Acts 2:40

7. Apostle Paul put it this way! Ro.7:25

    I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then with the mind I myself serve the law of God …

    Make Jesus Christ your Lord.  You are able to say: I myself serve the law of God!

E. The cure is here! 2Tim.2:24-26

1. The servant of the Lord must not dispute; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient. 2Tim.2:24

2. In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance

    to the acknowledging of the truth. 2Tim.2:25

3. And that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil,

    who are taken captive by him at his will. 2Tim.2:26

***Yes, an evangelist who knows the truth is needed! 

    Yes, we are back to Acts 2:40! --> Save yourselves from this corrupt generation!

F. Conclusion: Have fun, build healthy friendship!

1. One subject at a time on Bible truth debate not dispute!

2. A debate is a logical attempt to convince.  A dispute is an argument to disagree.

3. Debate is to find reasons to do what Bible says.  Dispute is to find reasons not to do what Bible says!

4. We all know if protesters come do this with us the world a better place instantly!

5. Let us all pray Mr. Martin Luther King’s dream come true!  No more protest needed in America! 

    Let us all be judged by the content of our character not by the color of our skin!  God bless America!

May the Lord grant us good healthy and peace!  Preach this June 21, 2020.
