2nd Nephi : 24
I find it interesting how Satan is described throughout scripture.
In this chapter, through verses 13 - 20, Satan is seemingly exposed as the weak fraudster he really is. Verse 16 is quite potent, written from the standpoint of people who were tempted by him, when shown his actual person, are amazed at the frailness of Satan. They say, "Is this the man that made the earth to termble, that did shake kingdoms?"
I'd do me a world of good to see that form of Satan now. I succumb to his temptations much more than I should.
And now we have arrived at the end of the much feared "Isaiah chapters" of 2nd Nephi! That wasn't so bad...
