"Are We Really Rivals?"
When I was growing up, and even now, I have always gravitated to stories between good and evil. Invariably in these stories you will have a battle of rivals. These rivals are equally matched, which makes a good story.
The battle is close, you don’t know who is going to win because you see that one wins some of the battles and the other wins some of the battles. So whether it is a movie, mini-series, books, tv shows, you will see good v. evil battles with God v. Satan. And the challenge with what is shown is the perception that Satan is somehow on God’s level, which is not close to the truth.
As we continue following Jesus from Scripture, today we will see clearly that “Satan is NOT God’s Equal.”
