1. Satans Snares. 2. His own Heart. 3. Death. 4. Judgement. 5. Hell. 6. Heaven.
1. The Fear of God will make a man afraid of Satan's snares. He hath the eye of Faith to see these snares, and the wing of Fear to fly from them—Pedibus Timor addidit alas—2 Cor. 2.11. We are not ignorant of his devices. The word is [Greek or Hebrew], subtle Stratagems. Satan is called the Old Serpent, Rev. 12.9. Though he hath lost his Holiness, he hath not lost his Policy: his snares are so Cunningly laid, that without the Guidance of Gods Fear we cannot escape them.
