Unit 6      Victory over Evil Forces

Warm up:  Put (T) = true        or (F) = false

T  F  1. Because Christ died on the cross in 31 CE, Christians should no longer pay any attention to the Great Controversy between Christ and Satan.

voca  [last paragraph Saturday] 1)                       

T  F  2. Our victory over sin is based on Christ’s victory over evil?

voca  “As a consequence of Christ’s cruxificion and resurrection, all things, including principalities and powers, function in subjection to Him. The stage is truly set for the possibility of our individual victories over all that would spiritually oppress us” [Sunday last paragraph] 2)                       

T  F  3. Trusting God in difficulties is a crucial component of what it means to live by faith and not by sight?

voca  Monday middle paragraph(3)

voca  (Romans 8:29, 30)(4)

T  F  4. Christ wants us to fight the devil by taking part in civil rights activistic actions to resist evil society structures.

voca  anthistemi = taking a stand against something (1 Peter 5:10)(5)

T  F  5. The apostles had more power available to them than what is available for us.

voca   Is there an advantage of any century over another in spiritual matters? 6)

T  F  6. People in the apostles days had natural illnesses which could be healed by Newstart programs but they thought it is demon possession.

T  F  7. When God expects you to do something, He provides efficient and sufficient means to assist the person to accomplish the expectation.

T  F  8. The controversy with Satan was settled at the cross in 31 CE, but how long is this controversy going to continue?

voca  The last enemy to be conquered is death when all those who cause death will be exterminated in the Hell (Revelation 20:14-15) (7)                       

T  F  9. When Christians are working for God on a project but they follow their Church confessions that are not biblical, one should overlook these problems and work together with them on the project?

voca  do not pull in the same joke as the unbeliever (8)                                       

T  F  10. Come closer to God and He will come closer to you.

voca  James 4:7, 8 [Friday first paragraph] (9)                                    

Let's Talk

Three or four in a team.    Rotate the questions.

1.One should not be for or against someone. It is better to be just neutral and embrace all?

voca   (10)  Romans 6:22 2:8                           

Partner answer: Yes. One should not make enemies?.

(your answer)                                                                

 (extension?) = say more?

Well, there is no true objectivity. Sins all are sinners to begin with, all are subjective. Jesus did not say there are three ways. Only two, one broad and one narrow.

2. Unless the Christian has struggled with sin he/she will not know how the devil flee from him/her.

voca  Satan trembles and flees before the weakest soul [DA 130-131] (11)

Partner answer: Yes. God will not make us suffer more than we can bear.

(your answer)                                                                

(extension?) = say more?

No. If you suffer it is because you are punished by God.

3. What role does the Holy Spirit play in conquering Satan?

voca   (12) “The ominipotent power of the Holy Spirit is the defense of every contrite soul” (DA 490, 493)                                                      

Partner answer: The Holy Spirit accompanies us daily and since He is also God, therefore He is able to resist the devil securely.

 (your answer)                                                    

 (extension?) = say more?

The Holy Spirit will guide people around the devil if it is not their wish to have any dealings of loyalty to him.

4. Do you think that evil are all linked to each other so that Satan is linked to dictators and they are linked to liars and liars are linked to murderers and they are linked to churchplayers and they are linked to silent evil desires?

voca   (13)  Romans 8:38; Ephesians 6:12; Matthew 25:41                           

voca   (14)  See Wednesday last paragraph.                           

Partner answer: No. We blame Satan for things which is our own fault.

(your answer)                                                    

(extension?) = say more?

I think that all are linked when they do not follow Christ. My evil desire will ultimately find its way to Satan.

 

Step up now

5. Are there degrees of bad actions? Are some sins not so bad as others?

voca  There are no degrees of bad actions. All sins are equal since from God’s perspective wrong is wrong whether it is little wrong or large wrong. (15)                                                 

Partner answer: Satan knows that he lost everything so he intends to bring as many down with him as possible.

(your answer)                                                    

 (extension?) = say more?

Is a white lie the same as murder? I do not think so.

6. What does it mean: “Freely you have received, freely you should give”?

voca   (16)  Matthew 10:8                                                    

Partner answer: It means that you should not sell something that was given to you for free.

(your answer)                                                                

 (extension?) = say more?

The Bible actually says that you have received salvation freely so out of thankfulness open yourself and your possessions unreservedly.

7. Christ sent His disciples out to distribute pamphlets with an umbrella [against dogs] no money, no lunch-box, no choco-pie, no extra clothes. Why did He say this?

voca   (17) Matthew 6:7-9                           

Partner answer: He wanted them to be depended upon Him.

(your answer)                                                    

 (extension?) = say more?

He wanted them to church to be an interactive and cooperative effort.

 

8. Some people say that Satan does not really exist and is only a human construction of the imagination of what they fear in life. What do you think?

Partner answer: No. We should not undone what the Bible claims exist.  

(your answer)                                                    

(extension?) = say more?

There is no person on the Moon and Mars but no plants grow there. So someone more than humans are involved here. All the problems of humans cannot be only humans.

9. Satan quoted from the Bible to Christ to support his idea. Is it different when the pope say Saturday is the Sabbath in the Old Testament and New Testament but the church, given authority by Christ to Peter, has the right to worship on Sunday, since Christ was resurrected from the dead on that day?

Partner answer: Yes. The Pope is not Satan since Satan is supernatural and the pope is a human.
