Genesis 3:1-6
THE BIG "D"
Hebrews 3:12 warns, Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of
you an evil heart of unbelief, in departing from the living God.
Another word for unbelief
is doubt. Satan has been working at
creating doubt in the hearts of men ever since the Garden of Eden.
There are four things
that Satan wanted Eve to doubt.
1. HE WANTED HER TO
DOUBT THE WORD OF GOD - Vs. 1
Satan
asked "Hath God said?"
He was wanting Eve to doubt the very words
spoken of God.
2. HE WANTED HER TO
DOUBT THE HONESTY OF GOD - Vs. 4
God said
man would die if he ate of the fruit. Genesis 2:17
Satan
claimed differently.
3. HE WANTED HER TO
DOUBT THE GOODNESS OF GOD - Vs. 5
Satan tried to make Eve think that God was
withholding something good from her. In
reality, God was protecting Eve.
4. HE WANTED HER TO
DOUBT THE WISDOM OF GOD
The whole passage implies to us that Satan
was challenging how wise God really is.
Satan still tries to get
us to doubt today. He wants us to doubt
what the Bible tells us to be true.
He wants us to doubt the
Word of God - 2 Timothy 3:16, Hebrews 4:12, Romans 15:4
He wants us to doubt the
honesty of God - Psalm 145:17, Psalm 119:137, 1 Peter 1:15-16
He wants us to doubt the
goodness of God - Psalm 145:8-9, John
He wants us to doubt the
wisdom of God - Romans 11:33, James 3:17
