The Bait of Satan, 20th Anniversary Edition: Living Free from the Deadly Trap of Offense

My approach and appreciation of offence has definitely taken a turn for the better after reading this book. So insightful. Highly recommend if you want to break from letting offences hold you back from the freedom Christ has for you.

It was just what my husb needed to read and let go of years of pent up anguish and resentment

This book is life-changing. Everyone should read it, whether or not you think you have an issue dealing with offence

It is such a great book, especially for someone like me who is returning back to my faith. I have become a fan of John Bevere's writing and sermons. Highly recommend!

I have almost if not all of John Bevere’s books and God has really used his books to sharpen the knowledge I received and continue to receive from God Himself through His word - the Bible. The bait of satan is a very good book don’t get me wrong but I do disagree with what he wrote on page 47 about Eli under the sub heading “HOW CAN GOD USE CORRUPT LEADERS”! In my little understanding of the Bible (by Gods mercy) I don’t see Eli as a wicked Priest; rather I see him as a WEAK PARENT who couldn’t correct the wickedness of his children. And he sadly got punished for his weakness- which is a great lesson for us all!

Another great book from John Bevere - very sound teaching and a real eye opener. This book is for people who really want to get rid of their hang ups, jealousy, offence and become a balanced and baggage-free, on-fire for Christ Christian. Each time I read one of his books, God uses it to explain the very event that occur and why people behave badly! I believe the Lord Jesus Christ uses this man and his ministry through his books to set Christians free to be able to live a life that is powerful, effective, with boldness and authority in Jesus' name. We can have peace, sound mind, love, joy, patience, self-control and all the rest by understanding ourselves and others, choose to think, believe, and behave with godliness and obey the Holy Bible- John Bevere helps us to reach this goal. So simple!

THIS E-BOOK, WHILST NOT A COMFORTABLE READ, MAKES YOU REALLY THING ABOUT SEEMINGLY BANAL ISSUES IN YOUR LIFE WHICH COULD ACTUALLY BE HINDERING YOU FROM FULFILLING YOUR FULL POTENTIAL AND ADVANCING SPIRITUALLY.

A friend loaned me her copy after numerous conversations sprinkled with "you need to read this book called Bate...." Having had a chance to read some of it - it is as recommended! A very helpful tool!

Ce livre est une merveille de l’Esprit de Dieu. La question de l’offense y est magnifiquement abordé au travers des Écritures. Avec des situations réelles et parfois très difficiles que l’on peut expérimenter pendant notre vie. C’est un superbe livre pour la guérison des cœurs et pour la restauration de l’âme. Beaucoup d’outils sont donnés aussi pour vivre une vie alerte par rapport aux stratégies de l’ennemi et une vie libérée de l’offense. Ce livre est un livre qui se lit et se relit lorsque l’offense frappe à nouveau à la porte. Beaucoup de conseils pratiques pour une mise en application efficace. Je recommande intensément !!!

Bought this for new believer! This book is one of the best books I have read about forgiveness. It taught me to put God's word into practice and helped me forgive my father I didn't talk to for 17 years.

John Bevere’s “The Bait of Satan” dives into how holding onto offense can harm relationships and spiritual growth. He warns that it’s a trap set by the enemy to divide believers. Using Bible verses and personal stories, Bevere shows how unforgiveness can poison the heart and hinder spiritual progress. Forgiveness is essential for freedom and closeness with God. The book encourages readers to check their hearts for hidden bitterness and offers practical steps to let go of offense and embrace love. The writing is clear and engaging, making it impactful for believers at any faith level. It effectively combines biblical teachings with real llife advice. While some might find the tone intense, the message is hopeful and freeing. Overall, it’s a valuable resource for those wanting to overcome offense and live fully surrendered to God. I recommend this very popular book!

The best book to deliver yourself from the bondage of offense

I've just received this book and I'm so excited to read it! I think John Bevere is an amazing and anointed speaker of God's word. Can't wait to get more of his books!
