From the beginning of time, there was a promise of perfection and good things to come; Scripture makes this abundantly clear. “Then God saw everything that He had made, and indeed it was very good. So, the evening and the morning were the sixth day” (Genesis 1:31). However, we are introduced to a new personality who would change the course of human history. The serpent, being used by Satan himself, would use his powers of guile to effectively draw mankind into disobedience. “So the great dragon was cast out, that serpent of old, called the Devil and Satan, who deceives the whole world; he was cast to the earth, and his angels were cast out with him” (Revelation 12:9). From that day until this, Satan has used deception as a means to lure the world at large, and God’s people in particular, away from biblical truth.
