5. Satan tempts to sin, under a pretence of Religion. He is most to be feared when he transforms himself into an Angel of Light. He came to Christ with Scripture in his mouth; It is written. The Devil baits his hook with Religion; he tempts many a man to Covetousness ⟨p. 37⟩and Extortion, under a pretence of providing for his Family; he tempts some to make away themselves, that they may live no longer to sin against God; and so he draws them into sin, under a pretence of avoiding sin. These are his [Greek or Hebrew], and subtle stratagems in tempting.
