Satan injected his evil nature into man, Satan
Satan injected his evil nature into man, Satan became sin in man. When the nature of sin was injected into man's body, the body was trans muted into flesh. Hence, Satan, sin, and the flesh are mutually related within man. If we would over come Satan and reign in life over him, we need to recognize that Satan as sin dwells in our flesh.
Because Satan is the source of both sin and death, he is the greatest enemy of all. It is not sufficient to reign over sin and death without subduing Satan. We must also defeat the source of sin and death. Then we shall truly be able to reign in life.
THE WAY TO OVERCOME SATAN
What is the way to overcome Satan? In her writings, Mrs. Jessie Penn-Lewis had a great deal to say about overcoming Satan. However, al though I put her suggestions into practice, what she suggested did not work for me. What Mrs. Penn-Lewis wrote regarding this matter was cor rect, but I had no way to apply it. Since the time Mrs. Penn-Lewis wrote her best books, more than fifty years have gone by. By the Lord's mercy and grace, the saints have gone on during these years to see two important matters related to spiritual warfare: the Body and life.
