Drawing from his years of experience in spiritual warfare, and leaving behind a life entrenched in Satanism, Ramirez emphasizes the importance of confronting temptation at its source.

“Temptation has a price,” Ramirez says, stressing that believers must be vigilant whenever temptation arises. “We need to kill, destroy, uproot temptation every time it shows up at your doorstep.” Ramirez also warns of how temptation can infiltrate one’s heart, mind, eyes and ears, urging immediate action to prevent it from taking root within our lives.

According to Ramirez, the devil’s main weapon against believers is temptation. “If you go to the Bible, you see all the people he tempted … some fell, but they got back up, praise the Lord, and they fought the fight and they won.” The Bible contains numerous examples of the consequences of giving in to temptation. King David’s sin with Bathsheba is a sobering reminder of how even the most faithful can stumble, leading to pain and suffering. Similarly, Judas Iscariot’s betrayal of Jesus for 30 pieces of silver highlights the devastating outcomes when temptation is not resisted.
Never mind the original temptation that got all of humanity kicked out of paradise.
Ramirez believes in taking an aggressive approach to overcoming temptation. “If you know how to take temptation by the throat … it won’t suffocate you,” he explains, exhorting believers to actively fight against temptation before it gains control.
He also encourages Christians to engage in discussions with others to strengthen their spiritual resolve. “Get someone that would provoke you spiritually in a good way,” he says. Ramirez emphasizes that iron sharpens iron, urging believers to support each other in spiritual warfare.
