Supernatural

"Supernatural is an American cult dramatic television series regarding the paranormal. The series, which is filmed in Vancouver, Canada, debuted on September 13, 2005 on the WB, and is now part of The CW's lineup. The second season premiered on September 28, 2006, and the third season premiered on October 4, 2007. Supernatural returned on April 24, 2008[1] after the writers strike. On March 3, 2008, the CW announced the pickup of the show for a fourth season.[2]

Premise

The show follows brothers Sam Winchester and Dean Winchester, played by Jared Padalecki and Jensen Ackles respectively, who travel across the country in a black 1967 Chevy Impala investigating and combating paranormal events and other unexplained occurrences, many of them based on American urban legends and folklore, as well as classic supernatural creatures such as vampires, werewolves, and ghosts. Eric Kripke, the show's creator, cites Neil Gaiman's The Sandman and American Gods as influences on Supernatural, along with American Werewolf in London and Joseph Campbell's The Hero's Journey.

Plot

The plot of the show has evolved over time, beginning initially with Sam and Dean looking for their father. Once they find him, however, the show becomes about killing Azazel, the demon responsible for the death of their mother. This is accomplished, but not until after Azazel's plans are completed and a door to Hell is opened momentarily, releasing a horde of demons into the world. This event also sees the death of Sam, who is subsequently resurrected by Dean selling his soul at the end of the second season. In season three, the plot of the show focuses on trying to save Dean from his deal. Along the way, they meet a demon named Ruby, who has an interest in Sam and claims to be able to help save Dean, as well as Bela Talbot, an "acquirer" and seller of occult objects who is constantly a thorn in their side. The brothers eventually manage to track down the demon who holds the contract, a powerhouse named Lilith who wants Sam dead. However, they ultimately fail to save Dean, who, as of the end of the third season, is in Hell." (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supernatural_(TV_series))

I have not watched this show. I have seen previews for it. One I saw yesterday really got me thinking. It is from season 3 the title of the show is sin city. Here is the tv trailer.


Did you see the words "first comes temptation then comes sin" 

We see this in the book of Genesis 4:7 it says: "Sin is crouching at the door, eager to control you. But you must subdue it and be its master." (NLT) 

This is God speaking to Cain. He was speaking about him killing this brother.

The temptation was there he was told to master it not to give in to it.

So first comes temptation and if we give in then comes sin.

This is such a good verse! It definitely shows that temptations and sin are always around us but I think it also shows us that we have the strength and the endurance to ignore it. Sin might be right there all the time but with God we can completely destroy it. Knowing this really encourages me everyday!!

by the way supernatural is actually a pretty good show..i have only seen a few episodes but they were really good.
