Thematic Bible



The rest of humanity, who had not been killed by these plagues, did not repent of the works of their hands, so that they did not stop worshiping demons and idols made of gold, silver, bronze, stone, and wood -- idols that cannot see or hear or walk about.

Jeroboam appointed his own priests to serve at the worship centers and to lead in the worship of the goat idols and calf idols he had made.

So they must no longer offer their sacrifices to the goat demons, acting like prostitutes by going after them. This is to be a perpetual statute for them throughout their generations.

They sacrificed to demons, not God, to gods they had not known; to new gods who had recently come along, gods your ancestors had not known about.

They sacrificed their sons and daughters to demons.

No, I mean that what the pagans sacrifice is to demons and not to God. I do not want you to be partners with demons.

they worshiped the dragon because he had given ruling authority to the beast, and they worshiped the beast too, saying: "Who is like the beast?" and "Who is able to make war against him?"


Be sober and alert. Your enemy the devil, like a roaring lion, is on the prowl looking for someone to devour.

Be angry and do not sin; do not let the sun go down on the cause of your anger. Do not give the devil an opportunity.

Clothe yourselves with the full armor of God so that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil.

So submit to God. But resist the devil and he will flee from you.


You people are from your father the devil, and you want to do what your father desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not uphold the truth, because there is no truth in him. Whenever he lies, he speaks according to his own nature, because he is a liar and the father of lies.

By this the children of God and the children of the devil are revealed: Everyone who does not practice righteousness -- the one who does not love his fellow Christian -- is not of God.

The field is the world and the good seed are the people of the kingdom. The weeds are the people of the evil one,

and said, "You who are full of all deceit and all wrongdoing, you son of the devil, you enemy of all righteousness -- will you not stop making crooked the straight paths of the Lord?
