Liar, Liar (2 of 8)
Series: Fake News
Jeff Schreve
Genesis 3:1-9
If you have your Bible, please turn to Genesis chapter 3. We want to talk today about the lies of the devil.
Did you know that in a small village in northwest England, a little village called Santon Bridge, every year they have a competition, and the competition is for the world's biggest liar? And they have these guys come to this pub in this little town, this little village, and they come and they have five minutes to bowl over the crowd and the judges and tell the most believable fish story. And so they tell their tale of the-fish-this-big-type story, and then they vote. One man has won it seven times. He was the world's biggest liar for seven years. They have a stipulation in this contest. You can't be a politician because then they said you'd be a pro. And this is an amateur's competition.
Well, we know that the world's biggest liar doesn't reside in Stanton Bridge, England. The world's biggest liar is the devil. Jesus said of the devil, whenever he speaks a lie, ''...he speaks from his own nature, for he is a liar and the father of lies.'' The devil is the master liar. He is the biggest liar because he tells lies about the biggest subject, and the biggest subject is God. The devil is the best liar because his lies are so believable. The Scripture says of the devil, ''...he deceives the whole world.'' And he is the most abominable liar because his lies, if you believe them, they'll wreck and ruin your life and they'll send you to an eternal hell. That's the devil.
We're in a series called Fake News: Exposing the Lies of the Devil. And today, we want to look at how the devil came on the scene in his first encounter with a human being. There is so much we can learn from Genesis chapter 3, such a key chapter. Liberals will try and denounce Genesis chapter 3 and they say, ''It is myth!'' But let me tell you something. Genesis chapter 3 is a foundational chapter. You don't understand ...
