John 18: 1-17 – Sin is Sneaky

Be sober minded; be watchful. Your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour (1 Peter 5:8). Temptations lurk everywhere.  Over time cracks will form in our hearts and take us away from God. This is a dangerous place to be. God wants to protect us and restore us. God wants us to know and feel on our darkest days we are never, ever alone! 

In this message, we learn how Peter denies Christ three times. Pastor Scott shows us where Peter allowed temptations in, which leads to sin. Some of the danger zones we can all fall into are: being prideful, relying on self instead of God, becoming comfortable with the world, and following Christ at a distance.  We learn how to safeguard our hearts and identify potential pitfalls in our lives. When we rely on the mighty hand of God we will have a greater confidence and joy in our day to day lives.
