here are two kingdoms in this world. A kingdom a darkness that leads to death and the kingdom of God which leads to life. The kingdom of darkness has been defeated and its evil ruler Satan knows it - but he will still tempt you to stay and even if you have already left, he will invite you to come visit. He is a liar who hates God and loves death. Resist him - flee from him. Shine the light of Gods truth into his face and turn your back to him.
