Commentary***
The devil really is a thief! He seeks to kill, steal and destroy you, both your body and your soul in hell. God compares the devil to a roaring lion, on the prowl seeking to devour you! Satan was a murder, and a liar from the very beginning. He invented both lies and murder.
What defense do you really have? Instead of yielding the right of way to the devil, resist him! Submit to God, because He causes the devil to flee from you.
Don't be afraid of either man or the devil, be afraid of God instead. He alone can destroy your body and soul in hell. Why not have God on your side, by trusting in Him today? Why not accept his free gift of everlasting life without any further delay?
Love in Christ Jesus!
