“Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves: therefore be wise as serpents, and harmless as doves.” Matthew 10:16.

Nature provides us with an illustration-
– that closely parallels the insidious tactics employed by our adversary.

According to scientists-

Artic polar bears feed almost entirely on seals.

To enjoy such a meal, they sometimes resort to a cunning bit of trickery. 

If the hole through which the seal gets his food is near the edge of the ice-

– the polar bear will take a deep breath and swim under water to its exact location.

Remaining below the surface-

– he will then make a tiny scratching sound, imitating a fish.

When the charmed seal hears this, he dives in for a quick supper-

– only to find himself suddenly entrapped in the huge, hungry embrace of his predator.

God has sent us forth as sheep among the wolves.

There are so many theories disguising themselves as godly.

We’re hungry for that meal.

But we must be wise enough to make sure it’s not a trap!

Keep reading and studying the Word of God!

Pray and ask Him to reveal His truth.

The enemy loves to tempt us with a ‘treat’ so he can devour us!

Don’t take anyone’s word but God’s!
