What are some of the most subtle pitfalls

and attacks from the devil

that you can warn others about?

Kevin: Well, of course, 
the devil's crafty.

I think one of the pitfalls

is taking Christians to an extreme.

They go from one extreme to another

all the time.

As Lloyd-Jones said,

it doesn't matter what extreme you're on,

the devil's always at the end of it.

People think a church is too big,

so they go another extreme of:

well, we're going to meet in a house.

The other pitfall of the devil

is "only-isms."

What I mean is it has to do

with getting out of balance.

It's when they make minor things

major things.

Being a Christian or the essential thing

is you've got to be home schooling,

or you've got to be 
doing street evangelism,

or it can be so many things,

but it's not centered upon Christ.

So I think definitely

taking people to extremes;

getting people out of balance

is the big problem.

Question: And personally, yourself,

when you were saved -

we're all fighting to be balanced -

are there times you felt 
like you got off balance?

And what happened to make you see

you were getting off balance?

Kevin: One thing that the 
Lord's always shown me

and has been faithful when 
I have got off balance,

normally by seeing people who are

obviously Christians; godly men

who have a different opinion from me

and they're not off balance like me.

And you start to realize, 
hang on a minute,

there's maybe something 
wrong with me here.

We've got to have that humility.

I think of the examples

when Jesus was exhausted by the well

in John's Gospel there,

and of course, His 
disciples went to get Him

something to eat.

And He's talking to that woman there

and it led to her salvation 
and many others.

But when His disciples came back,

it says they couldn't understand

why He was talking to a woman,

let alone a Samaritan woman.

But it also says they 
dared not question Him.

You see, their conscience was going off,

saying He shouldn't be doing that!

Why is He doing that?

But I think they'd learned enough

about holiness to say,

well, this guy's maybe a 
little more holy than me.

I better keep my mouth quiet here.

And that has really helped me

when I'm with other brothers

more mature over the years,

and to realize maybe they know a bit

more about holiness than me.
