About this episode
Michael McDowell explores the lies of the enemy as depicted in Genesis 3 and how to combat them with God's Word.
Michael McDowell takes us into Genesis 3, where the serpent's subtle lies lead Adam and Eve into sin, and shows us that the enemy is still using the same playbook today. Michael unpacks three lies the enemy uses to pull us away from God: that His Word is restrictive and ridiculous, that sin has no real consequences, and that God isn't ultimately good. But just as Jesus recognized and rejected these same tactics in the wilderness, we can too — by picking up the sword of God's Word and trusting in the power of Jesus that lives in us.
