Sermon: On Satan’s Turf

(Click HERE for MP3 sermon audio.)

Text: Mark 1:9-13

The Christian life is not necessarily a passive one. Jesus, filled with the Spirit, battled Satan and won the victory over temptation, thereby showing that sin is no match for God and demonstrating the power to redeem sinners from sin. When a person is filled with the Holy Spirit, they could be called to battle Satan on his turf, just as Jesus was compelled to do, in order to bring the message of the gospel to those suffering from the disease of sin and its effects. The Holy Spirit assures Christians that they are not alone in this battle, and that indeed, victory is assured.
