Book Review of The Bait of Satan

Recently, the ladies book club I meet with decided to read The Bait of Satan by John Bevere.  I have had this book for many years and often refer to it during struggles.  I highly recommend this book for all believers!

The Bait of Satan is a well written book that can be of assistance to fellow believers.  The book helps believers deal with being offended.  Let's face the facts; we all will be offended some time in our life!  It is how we deal with the offense that matters most.  Do we let the offense simmer into bitterness?  Or do we challenge ourselves to grow and not let the offense take hold?  Obviously as believers we know what God would desire of us.

I have been offended by others and I admit it is not easy to just let go!  Some of the offenses have taken time for me to work through and forgive those who have offended.  Both my husband and I have found this book to be very helpful during such times.

John Bevere refers to many scriptural passages to back up his crucial points.  He gives great life examples and many are about himself.  This is very refreshing to read and encouraging to know that no one is exempt from being offended.

Every and I do mean EVERY believer should read this book at least once. I strongly urge fellow believers to buy a copy, because we all know that there will be a time when we are offended.
