Are you comfortable or uncomfortable? That's a great question because do you know that there are industries out there that try to make us comfortable? We just hate being uncomfortable. So, they try to make us more comfortable. When that happens, especially in our spiritual life, that is a great opportunity for Satan to infiltrate. And that's what he does in our church. God had given us a spirit, soul, and body. The spirit was at the top, then the soul was subject to the spirit and the body was subject to both. But when sin entered the world, then it reversed order. The body is now on top, the soul is still in the center and the spirit is subject to both the body and the soul. The body (flesh) is the driving factor instead of the spirit. Remember, during the time of Adam and Eve, before sin entered the world the spirit was the highest level, the soul was subject to the spirit, then the body (flesh) was subject to the soul and the spirit. When sin entered, that got rearranged. Now the body, the flesh, is more in control and the spirit is at the bottom. And that's what we're going to discuss today and show how being comfortable in our spirit life can be an opportunity for sin to enter our life. Now the good news is we can right the wrong and get the order spirit, soul and body back to what God wanted by turning our life over to Jesus.

In our last episode, we were talking about how Satan enters into our church, the pastors or leadership, whatever Satan can enter in through and be successful at, so that he can turn us away from God. And we're going to continue along with that theme in this episode, we're going to look at leadership and people, back in the time of Jesus and how they had an elevated opinion of themselves. We're going to dive deeper into how Satan enters into our churches. And the reason for this episode is so that, you know, that's how Satan can turn us away from God when we're in our safe haven, our church. Hey, wait a minute, Satan. That's off limits. No, it's not. He's been doing it ever since Jesus was alive, right? You know, he was in the Pharisees and the religious leaders back then, and they killed him. So, Satan's been doing this quite a while, so he's pretty good at it. And it's, incumbent on us to know that he can do that. And then be able to test those spirits when we hear something that's not quite right, and then we can determine whether or not is from God or Satan trying to lead us astray. So, stay tuned. This is going to be a great episode.

In this episode, in the next episode, we're going to be talking about some hard truths. We're going to be talking about how evil enters our churches. Now, our series has been on testing the spirits, and also how evil enters into politics and really into our everyday life. But church pastors, they're not immune from Satan's attack or his successful infiltration. And so, we really have to know that that can happen. So that we can be aware that Satan can even attack us and what we think is our most sacred and safe harbor. Right. But not so. And it wasn't that way in Jesus, time either, was it? Because, they infiltrated the Pharisees and the religious leaders of that time, and they actually wanted to put Jesus to death? And they did, didn't they? So Satan's been doing this troll trick for a long time. He's pretty good at it. So, let's look at how it's done. Don’t skip this episode.
