GOOD MORNING!
Winter was coming and a hunter went out into the forest to shoot a bear, out of which he planned to make a warm coat. By and by he saw a big brown bear coming toward him and raised his rifle and took aim. “Wait,” said the bear. “Why do you want to shoot me?” “Because I am cold,” said the hunter, “and I need a coat.”
“But I am hungry,” the bear replied. “So maybe if we just talk this over a little, we could compromise.” So the hunter sat down beside the bear and began to talk over the situation. In the end, however, the hunter was well enveloped by the bear's fur, and the bear had eaten his dinner.
Often times when we take a stand for Jesus the world tries to get us to compromise. When Jesus was tempted by the devil in the wilderness, He shot 3 bullets, all beginning with the phrase, “It is written…” he quoted God's Word and the devil had no power over him. Don't bargain with the devil. If you do you're dead meat.
