NT
1 Peter 5:8-9
esv
What we are to do
Be sober- minded; be watchful.
The devil's strategy
Your adversary the devil prowls around
like a roaring lion,
seeking someone to devour.
{Can Satan Devour Christians? this text does not state that. It states that the devil is wanting to devour, not that it can happen. Learning point: Stick close to the text!}
What we are to do
Resist him,
firm in your faith,
{what are we to have faith in? 1 Peter 1:5 -- That God will guard our faith. Therefore the answer is no, the devil cannot succeed in devouring true Christians.}
knowing that
the same kinds of suffering
{By juxtaposition, it is plausible to say that satan's roar consists of suffering}
are being experienced
by your brotherhood throughout the world.
