Sermon Tone Analysis

6 And I remind you of the angels who did not stay within the limits of authority God gave them but left the place where they belonged

God has kept them securely chained in prisons of darkness, waiting for the great day of judgment.

The Three battlegrounds

Francis Frangipine

When Satan rebelled against God, he was placed under eternal judgment in what the Bible calls "pits" or "bonds" of darkness.

The devil, and the fallen angels with him, have been relegated to live in darkness.

This darkness does not simply mean "lightless regions" or areas void of visible light.

The eternal darkness to which this Scripture refers is essentially a moral darkness, which does ultimately degenerate to literal darkness.

However, its cause is not simply the absence of light; it is the absence of God, who is light.

It is vital to recognize that this darkness to which Satan has been banished is not limited to areas outside of humanity.

Unlike those who do not know Jesus, however, we have been delivered out of the domain or "authority" of darkness ().

We are not trapped in darkness if we have been born of light.

But if we tolerate darkness through tolerance of sin, we leave ourselves vulnerable for satanic assault.

For wherever there is willful disobedience to the Word of God, there is spiritual darkness and the potential for demonic activity.

Thus Jesus warned, "Take heed that the light which is in thee be not darkness" ( KJV).

There is a light in you.

"The spirit of man is the lamp of the Lord" ().

Your spirit, illuminated by the Spirit of Christ, becomes the "lamp of the Lord" through which He searches your heart.

There is indeed a holy radiance surrounding a true Spirit-filled Christian.

But when you harbor sin, the "light which is in thee" is "darkness."

Satan has a legal access, given to him by God, to dwell in the domain of darkness.

We must grasp this point: The devil can traffic in any area of darkness, even the darkness that still exists in a Christian’s life.

Let's Look at Potential Dark Areas

 No man, when he hath lighted a candle, putteth it in a secret place, neither under a bushel, but on a candlestick, that they which come in may see the light.

1. Secrets ** hidden things*** The power of secrets: they divide people, they deter new relationships & they freeze the development of individuals.

2. Manipulation: the exercise of undue influence through mental distortion and emotional exploitation, with the intention to seize power, control, benefits and/or privileges at the victim’s expense.

3. Insecurity:

4. Insecurity:

4. Rejection:

5. Pride:

6. Arrogance:  Pride precedes a disaster, and an arrogant attitude precedes a fall.

(GOD’S WORD)

 Pride precedes a disaster, and an arrogant attitude precedes a fall.

(GOD’S WORD)

Arrogance -vs- Ignorance

Arrogance can be defined as having an attitude of superiority and being full of self or having an extreme form of pride.

It can be manifested in an overbearing personality that makes it hard for others to be around.

They usually have an inflated ego and sense of self-worth that is highly overestimated and an arrogant person can be presumptuous or claim to be superior and all others are deemed to be far inferior and that they feel that they are so much better than others.

The arrogant cannot stand in your presence” () or in God’s presence and “To the arrogant I say, ‘Boast no more,’ and to the wicked, ‘Do not lift up your horns” ().

A wicked person will “pour out arrogant words; all the evildoers are full of boasting” () but God will “rebuke the arrogant, who are accursed, those who stray from your commands” ().

The psalmist also wrote “May the arrogant be put to shame” ().

What will be the end of the arrogant?

“The eyes of the arrogant will be humbled and human pride brought low; the Lord alone will be exalted in that day” () and “So people will be brought low and everyone humbled, the eyes of the arrogant humbled” ().

Ignorance is preferable to error.

1.

The negative state of the mind which has not been instructed in Ignorant: Destitute of knowledge; uninstructed or uninformed; untaught; unenlightened.

A man may be ignorant of the law, He may be ignorant of his own rights, or of the rights of others.

2. Unknown; Undiscovered; concealment.

Knowledge is light and Ignorance is darkness

NLT () 31 Jesus said to the people who believed in him, “You are truly my disciples if you remain faithful to my teachings.

32 And you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”

().

34 Jesus replied, “I tell you the truth, everyone who sins is a slave of sin.

35 A slave is not a permanent member of the family, but a son is part of the family forever.

36 So if the Son sets you free, you are truly free.

The eternal darkness to which this Scripture refers is essentially a moral darkness, which does ultimately degenerate to literal darkness.

However, its cause is not simply the absence of light; it is the absence of God, who is light.

It is vital to recognize that this darkness.

The Turning From Light Brings You Into Darkness

Ignorance: is darkness.. place’s where there is ignorance in a Christians life, things we have turned away from God in.

Satan has access… You ever heard someone say i was in the dark, i had not clue what was happening.

This is why we must study the word of God… Pray and seek the Face of God.

29 *And in the thirty and eighth year of Asa king of Judah began Ahab the son of Omri to reign over Israel: and Ahab the son of Omri reigned over Israel in Samaria twenty and two years.

30 And Ahab the son of Omri did evil in the sight of the Lord above all that were before him.

31 And it came to pass, †as if it had been a light thing for him to walk in the sins of Jeroboam the son of Nebat, that he took to wife Jezebel the daughter of Ethbaal king of the Zidonians, and went and served Baal, and worshipped him.

32 And he reared up an altar for Baal in the house of Baal, which he had built in Samaria.

33 And Ahab made a grove; and Ahab did more to provoke the Lord God of Israel to anger than all the kings of Israel that were before him.
