More of the 10 Key paths to Heaven! - Part 3 " Flee the Darkness!"
There has been opposition to God's Will upon the earth since Satan entered the Garden of Eden - therefore be prepared to face the temptations that come your way...
Jesus Predicts Peter's Denial
31 "Simon, Simon, behold, Satan has demanded permission to sift you like wheat;
32 but I have prayed for you, that your faith may not fail; and you, when once you have turned again, strengthen your brothers."…
{Notice that Jesus said "that your faith may not fail!" }
Matthew 4:10
Jesus said to him, "Away from me, Satan! For it is written:
'Worship the Lord your God, and serve him only.'"
1 Corinthians 5:5
hand this man over to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, so that his spirit may be saved on the day of the Lord.
2 Corinthians 2:11
in order that Satan might not outwit us. For we are not unaware of his schemes.
John 17:15
My prayer is not that you take them out of the world but that you protect them from the evil one.
** For we know that we are of God, and the whole world lies in wickedness.
Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary
1 John 5:18-21
All mankind are divided into two parties or dominions; that which belongs to God, and that which belongs to the wicked one. True believers belong to God: they are of God, and from him, and to him, and for him; while the rest, by far the greater number, are in the power of the wicked one; they do his works, and support his cause.
This general declaration includes all unbelievers, whatever their profession, station, or situation, or by whatever name they may be called. The Son leads believers to the Father, and they are in the love and favor of both; in union with both, by the indwelling and working of the Holy Spirit.
Happy are those to whom it is given to know that the Son of God is come, and to have a heart to trust in and rely on him that is true!
May this be our privilege; we shall thus be kept from all idols and false doctrines, and from the idolatrous love of worldly objects, and be kept by the power of God, through faith, unto eternal salvation. To this living and true God, be glory and dominion for ever and ever.
Amen.

Purpose and Concluding Remarks
…18 We know that no one who is born of God sins; but He who was born of God keeps him, and the evil one does not touch him.
19 We know that we are of God, and that the whole world lies in the power of the evil one.
20 And we know that the Son of God has come, and has given us understanding so that we may know Him who is true; and we are in Him who is true, in His Son Jesus Christ.
This is the true God and eternal life.…
