Led us to where we are today...

 


"In the light 

of the prophesied onslaught 

of deceiving spirits 

against the Church 

in the last days 



(I Tim. 4:1-3

Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, 

that in the latter times 

some shall depart from the faith, 

giving heed to seducing spirits, 

and doctrines of devils;


2 Speaking lies in hypocrisy; 

having their conscience seared 

with a hot iron;...)



 "so apparent in its incipient fulfilment now,"


(This was written in the 50's.

Merrill Unger should see today.)


 "the unbelief of Christian people 

is all the more tragic 

as many believers suffer 

demonic deception and despoliation 

because of sheer ignorance 

of Satan and his devices."


 "Even many spiritual believers 

are unable to wage a successful war 

against this army of wicked spirits, 

through 

lack of knowledge 

of what is involved."


"Many shrink from the subject altogether,

 insisting that so long as Christ is preached, 

occupation with Satan and demons is 

unnecessary and spiritually unhealthy

All the while however, 

Satan is continuously gaining advantage 

because of the believers ignorance.


Unger.
