His [Satan’s] first device to draw the soul to sin is . . . to present the bait and hide the hook; to present the golden cup, and hide the poison; to present the sweet, the pleasure, and the profit that may flow in upon the soul by yielding to sin, and by hiding from the soul the wrath and misery that will certainly follow the committing of sin.”
Thomas Brooks, Precious Remedies against Satan’s Devices (Vintage Puritan) (p. 12). GLH Publishing. Kindle Edition.
