Yesterday in Sunday School, Scott talked about Sanctification in the life of a Christian. During the conversation he mentioned the wonderful C.S. Lewis classic The Screwtape Letters as he talked about Christians and the temptation to sin. If you have never read the book by Lewis I highly recommend it for it offers a picture of what temptation is like. It is a fictional story about a demon named Screwtape who is mentoring his nephew Wormwood in the fine arts of tempting humans to sin. While a work of fiction, Lewis draws on the Biblical descriptions of how the servants of Hell operate. It is an eye opening work that will cause any Christian to examine their life and motivations. For the non-Christian it offers a picture of an enemy one may not have considered. Check it out.
Here are some thoughts on the book from Goodreads:
