BEWARE OF SATAN’S SLANDER–NEVER SURRENDER YOUR TONGUE TO HIM (GEW-03)

As we open to Titus 2, at this very moment, Satan is roaming the Earth trying to mess up God’s plan. His methods of attack are very focused and are revealed in God’s Word by his many names. Each of Satan’s well-known names describes a facet of his evil plan. He is called:

• Lucifer the Cherub who fell because he proudly wanted to share in God’s glory;
• Satan the constant Adversary of God’s plans and people;
• The Serpent from of Old who deceived Eve in the Garden of Eden;
• The Dragon who relentlessly seeks to destroy Israel the Chosen People of God;
• The Deceiver who enslaves the minds and hearts of the whole world;
• The Murderer from the Beginning who came to kill, to steal, and destroy; and
• The Roaring Lion who seeks to devour the unsuspecting believer.

But today, as we gather in Christ’s Church, the most unsuspecting and damaging of all his names, is also the method Satan brings perhaps greatest damage to Christ’s church.

That other name of his is The Devil, diabolos or literally:

The Slandering
Accuser

God’s Word shows us how Satan accuses believers before God’s Throne in Job 1. Jesus stands at the Right Hand of the Father and defends us as our Great Intercessor and Advocate.

But sadly, Satan has enlisted many helpers in his attack on Christ’s Church. Almost all of them are unsuspecting of the terrible part they play in destroying the effectiveness of believers, church leaders, and entire churches.

In fact, after 30 plus years as a minister of God’s Word, I have never seen anything as deadly to the church as the Devil, the Slanderer, enlisting gossiping believers to become tools in his hands to slander other believers, tear down the Biblical leaders in Christ’s church, and by their accusations, neutralize an entire local church. That danger is what leads us to Paul’s words in Titus 2:3.
