promises profit and pays with loss; he promises life and pays with death. Thomas Brooks 撒旦應許最好的，給的卻是最差的；應許的是尊貴，給的是羞辱；應許喜樂，給的是傷痛；應許得到利益，給的卻是損失；應許生命，給的卻是死亡。 |

not dare take on Satan alone but called on the Lord to rebuke him. No Christian,
then, should ever feel that he is wise enough or powerful enough to engage Satan apart

unseat the Almighty he was guilty of an act of judgement so bad as to be imbecilic. A. W. Tozer 聖經不少地方提到魔鬼的奸詐及凶悍。但當牠冒險用自己的能力想罷黜全能者時，牠害怕審判的罪感讓牠看來無比愚拙。 |

him also for your paymaster. John Trapp 你請魔鬼當監工，那你也請牠當了你的會計長。 |
