It is the common misery of all the unsaved--that the devil is their god. His drudges they are, and his lusts they do. However Satan may provide his slaves with various pleasures--yet it is but to draw them into endless perdition. O dreadful case!
The serpent comes with the fruit in his mouth, but, like Eve--you do not see the deadly sting! He who is now your tempter--will one day be your tormentor!
O that I could but make you see how bad a master you serve, how merciless a tyrant you gratify; whose pleasure is to make your perdition and damnation sure, and to heat the furnace hotter and hotter in which you must burn for millions and millions of ages! ~Thomas Brooks, A String of Pearls, (2 Tim 2:26)
