Pastor Ryan Abone

1. How do you plan on stewarding what you learned in the sermon for the glory of God and the good of your neighbor?

2. We learned that Satan can attack us in various ways: 1) Destruction (will seek to destroy us); 2) Defamation (will discredit God and His ways); 3) Deception (will mislead and deceive us). How can we protect ourselves from each one of these attacks?

3. In the sermon, we learned that since he is finite, Satan is only playing checkers, but that God (the infinite one) is playing chess. Why is that truth so important to remember?

4. In the wilderness, Jesus goes up against the serpent, but unlike Adam, he passes every test and temptation. What are the key differences between Jesus’ response and Adam’s response? What can we learn from Jesus’ reaction?

5. How does Jesus’ overall victory in the cosmic war practically impact our ongoing daily battles?
