And he said to Him, “All these things I will give You…” Matthew 4: 9

All of what things? This was the devil’s proposal to the Lord Jesus. The devil offered the glory, the “lights” of this world.

In the present day, he (the devil) uses the same strategy toward us; to the Lord Jesus, he took Him to a very high mountain (v.8) and from there, showed Him all things; to us, he uses the internet, the virtual world. Through social networks, people can go wherever they want without having to leave their homes. Any country, any event, anywhere, everything is at hand; just one click and bam: prostitution, drugs, theft, etc…

Therefore, the Word of God guides us:

“All things are lawful for me, but all things are not helpful. All things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any ..”  1 Corinthians 6:12

We can use the internet for many things, as I am using it now, but not everything that exists on the internet is for us.

May the God of the Bible Bless You
