The Father of Lies

Genesis 3:1-4; John 8:44

The very first suggestion of doubt in the Bible comes from Satan and its only purpose was to sow the seeds of doubt in the minds of Adam and Eve that God didn't really mean what He says.  Doubt is a tool used by Satan to suggest that we should lack confidence in what God is speaking to us and to suggest that God's judgment is unlikely.

Questions for further thought:
1. Do you doubt that God means what He tells us in His Word?
2. Do you believe God will hold you accountable for disobeying Him? 

Challenge: God is a perfect God, and He expects us to follow His commands. Even though He wants our obedience in everything, He knows that it is impossible for us to not sin. Thus, the plan for Jesus to act as our sacrifice, once and for all. Thank Him and believe!
