The Dark Side of this Evil World
“So the great dragon was cast out, that serpent of old,
called the Devil and Satan, who
DECEIVES THE WHOLE
WORLD
; he was cast to the earth, and his angels were
cast out with him.”
Revelation 12:9
Dear Brethren,
Though we have read the above Scripture many times, as well as hearing its use in
sermons, but more than ever there is a great need to really grasp what it says! Satan has
indeed deceived the whole world! This can be seen by looking what he is doing by
influencing the powers behind the leadership in the government of this country and
those of the world.
The Apostle Paul clearly made this known in his writings:
Ephesians 6:1012
vs.67 “Finally my brethren, be strong in the LORD and in the POWER of
His might. Put on the whole armor of God that you may be able to stand
against THE WILES OF THE DEVIL (
many devious destructive weapons in his
arsenal).
vs.1213 “For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood (
struggling as mere
mortal beings
), but against Principalities, against Powers, AGAINST THE
RULERS OF THE DARKNESS OF THIS AGE (
the world’s evil rulers involved
with the principalities and powers of mankind
), AGAINST SPIRITUAL HOSTS OF
WICKEDNESS IN THE HEAVENLY
PLACES (
perhaps billions of organized evil
forces
)
. Therefore, take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to
WITHSTAND IN THE EVIL DAY, and having done all to stand.”
