Baptism: Renouncing the Devil and all his works - Page 5

Index

SUMMARY

1. The Devil spends his time fighting against God and in trying to replace good with evil.  Everyone must be on one side or the other.

2. At our Baptism we became Soldiers of Christ in his Army, the Church, and we promised to renounce or reject (have nothing to do with) the Devil and his works.  The special works of the Devil are tempting, lying and hating.
