The tempting worms hanging on the lips of the old serpent the devil!

(James Smith, "Handfuls on Purpose")

"The deceitfulness of sin!" Hebrews 3:13

The "fishing-frog" has been named the "sea-devil" - because it is supposed to allure and catch little fish by means of worm-like appendages at its mouth.


How many delusive appendages has the devil dangling at its mouth! Silly men catch at these, and get devoured!


The attractions of sin are but the tempting worms hanging on the lips of the old serpent the devil. Be not deceived.


"So that Satan will not outwit us. For we are familiar with his evil schemes." 2 Corinthians 2:11
