The Bait of Satan - part 2

Yesterday I started blogging quotes that challenged me from John Bevere's book "The Bait of Satan".
Here are some more...

"God tests His servants with obedience. He deliberately places us in situations where the standards of religion and society would appear to justify our actions. He allows others, especially those close to us, to encourage us to protect ourselves. We may even think we would be noble and protect others by avenging ourselves. But this is not God's way. It is the way of the world's wisdom. It is earthly and fleshy."

"You are not the one who choses where you go to church. God does."(1 Cor. 12:18)

"Remember that, if you're in the place where God wants you, the devil will try to offend yo to get you out. He wants to uproot men and women form the place where God plants them. If he cannot get you will not budge, even in the midst of great conflict, you wil spoil his plans."

"When you're out of the will of God, you will not be a blessing or help to any church."

"Once you leave the place God has chosen for you, your root system begins to dwarf... You end up coming to the place where you have little or no strength to endure hardship or persecution."
