[Pulp Fiction]

Genesis ch. 3(KJV)
1 - Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the Lord God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden?

2 - And the woman said unto the serpent, We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden:

3 - But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God hath said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die.

4 - And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die:

5 - For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.

Just so everybody knows, the serpent mentioned here is the same serpent mentioned in Revelation ch. 12 ver. 9. And yes, the devil told a lie as he is called the "Father of Lies" in John ch. 8 ver. 44.

John ch. 8 (KJV)
44 - Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.

Revelation ch. 12 (KJV)
9 - And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.

Venom - (Noun)
Poisonous fluid secreted by animals such as snakes and scorpions and typically injected into prey or aggressors by biting or stinging.

Suffocation - (Verb)
To kill or destroy by preventing access of air or oxygen.


There are two ways that a serpent (Snake) will hurt or kill their prey. Biting them and injecting their lethal Venom. Or a serpent will latch on to their prey and cause death by Suffocation. In either instance.... the serpent HAS TO BE within striking distance of their prey.

the devil is the same way. he can't trouble you unless you are close enough for him to strike. The only 'power' the devil has is what we give him. If you 'walk' close enough to him.... eventually he will strike and he will 'bite' you.

Most serpents that use venom as their killing tool, do not even consume what they kill. Yes, they will eat smaller animals. But most of the time, once they strike and inject their venom, they will leave their prey for dead. And YES... the devil does will do the exact same thing. Look at all the lives destroyed by drugs and alcohol. Look at the people marching for a cause that The Bible calls an abomination.

the devil uses the pleasures of sin... similar to a fishing lure. Yeah, it looks good to a fish just swimming along, then before the fish can react... their hooked and headed for dry ground. Sin is pleasurable; Sin is fun; Sin will send you to hell. Don't let the devil take you to hell. Don't let sin ruin your life. Don't fall in to the temptations of the devil.


If you don't remeber nothing else from this post.... please remember that you have to be within striking distance for the serpent to strike you. If a serpent strikes, but there's nobody within 1,000 miles of it, then it doesn't hurt anybody. But if somebody is within that serpent's "striking distance", then that person is gonna have a problem.
