Summary of John Bevere's The Bait of Satan, 20th Anniversary Edition

By IRB Media

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:

#1 The enemy’s most deadly and deceptive trap is the offense trap. It severs relationships, widens the existing breaches between us, and handicaps us from fulfilling our full potential.

#2 The Greek word skand-alon, which is used to describe the offense of Luke 17:1, originally referred to the part of the trap to which the bait was attached. It is used in the New Testament to describe an entrapment used by the enemy.

#3 When we are offended, we fall into one of two categories: those who have been treated unjustly and those who believe they have been treated unjustly. The latter category is made up of people who have been wronged, but their understanding is darkened because their assumptions are inaccurate or their information is accurate but their conclusion is distorted.

#4 The enemy keeps you in an offended state by keeping the offense hidden, cloaked with pride. Pride keeps you from admitting your true condition. It distorts your vision. You never change when you believe everything is fine.

#6

The first step in refining gold is grinding it into a powder and mixing it with a substance called flux. The mixture is then placed in a furnace and heated to melt the alloys and impurities. The gold remains at the bottom.

#7

God refine s with trials and tribulations, which are the heat of afflictions. Sin hides where there is no heat of trials and afflictions. When the fire of trials hits, however, the impurities surface.
