Download or read book A Christian Understanding of Deception written by R. Douglas Wardrop and published by Strategic Book Publishing & Rights Agency. This book was released on 2015-04-13 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. John 10:10a NKJV Satan is the god of this world (see 2 Corinthians 4:4 and 1 John 5:19), is the “father of lies” (see John 8:44), and his job description is to “steal, and to kill, and to destroy.” In order to achieve his aims, he most often lies to us and deceives us. Satan often disguises his forces to make them look like natural problems so you’ll fight them with natural weapons. But you cannot fight a spiritual foe with natural weapons but with spiritual weapons, i.e. speaking God’s word to the devil and his demons. Unfortunately satan can disguise himself as an “angel of light,” so it is possible to be deceived by an innocent and apparently correct Christian teaching (see Matthew 24:4, 24:5; Mark 13:5, 13:6; and Luke 21:8). Often these inaccurate or incomplete teachings focus on God’s love and blessings (thus appealing to our flesh and so lead us astray (see Mark 13:22 and 1 Timothy 4:1) and do not mention His greatness, or our need to obey Him and have a reverential fear of Him. This book aims to help reveal satan’s lie and deception strategies and so empower Christians to live the Christian life that God intended. “Great book, interesting and well written based on solid evidence, documented, and not on flights of fancy or fanciful digressions or comforting in a fantastic book where you can find and discover the birth of the religion best known to the world. Through the dialogue structure, the reading is easier even if the terminology is researched and complex. At first glance it may seem pedantic, but you will be fascinated by the events described that so well dot the book.” -- Kalyan Panja , Booktica - Book Reviews
Download or read book The Devil Wins written by Dallas G. Denery II and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2016-09-13 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A bold retelling of the history of lying in medieval and early modern Europe Is it ever acceptable to lie? This question plays a surprisingly important role in the story of Europe's transition from medieval to modern society. According to many historians, Europe became modern when Europeans began to lie—that is, when they began to argue that it is sometimes acceptable to lie. This popular account offers a clear trajectory of historical progression from a medieval world of faith, in which every lie is sinful, to a more worldly early modern society in which lying becomes a permissible strategy for self-defense and self-advancement. Unfortunately, this story is wrong. For medieval and early modern Christians, the problem of the lie was the problem of human existence itself. To ask "Is it ever acceptable to lie?" was to ask how we, as sinners, should live in a fallen world. As it turns out, the answer to that question depended on who did the asking. The Devil Wins uncovers the complicated history of lying from the early days of the Catholic Church to the Enlightenment, revealing the diversity of attitudes about lying by considering the question from the perspectives of five representative voices—the Devil, God, theologians, courtiers, and women. Examining works by Augustine, Bonaventure, Martin Luther, Madeleine de Scudéry, Jean-Jacques Rousseau, and a host of others, Dallas G. Denery II shows how the lie, long thought to be the source of worldly corruption, eventually became the very basis of social cohesion and peace.

Download or read book How Satan Deceives You written by Kris Doulos and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2009-07-08 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Everyone is challenged by Satan and his demons. The first task in engaging an enemy is to learn about him and his tactics. Unfortunately this hasnt been done well enough for people to recognize the voice inside their brain trying to get them to make bad decisions. Not recognizing thoughts put into your brain by Satan causes you to think they are your thoughts telling you how bad you are or giving you harmful solutions to your problems. Satans goal is to get humans to destroy themselves with vices or conflicts. While reading this book you may find ideas different from what you normally hear from religious leaders. The information in this book is the result of many years of experience working with God, winning and losing battles with Satan, countless hours of study of the Bible and the determination to place truth above opinion, tradition or status. When traditions force sincere ministers to choose between tradition and truth, Satan has a solution. Change what God says to an opinion of what God means. He used this strategy on Eve and every dupable person since then. Once a person learns to do this he can peacefully co-exist with truth and error. Church members taught things inconsistent with the words of God for many years are not easily persuaded they are opposing God. This is the problem Jesus faced when he tried to correct the theology of the Jewish leaders. What Jesus told the Jewish leaders was not new, it had always been in their Scriptures. The contents of this book are not new they have always been in the Bible. Opinion, tradition and political correctness have neutered the church and made it impotent. This book is an attempt to reveal Satan, his tactics and the people who work for him. This information may keep you from being his next meal because, as Peter said, he is walking about looking for someone to devour.

The Greek term denotes an unveiling or uncovering—thus, a revelation." "Here is the key to understanding the book. Jesus alone can unlock the meaning of its symbols, visions and descriptions...Christ reveals its meaning. He unlocks its seals. But how does He do it?" "Most of Revelation—about two thirds of its content—is devoted to the seventh seal. The contents of the first six seals are found in chapter 6 alone." "How will the two witnesses and their message be received?" "The book of Revelation reveals, from more than one perspective, the emergence of this vast end-time empire governed from a great city God labels “Babylon the great”, the reference here being to Rome." "Jesus Christ will return to establish that Kingdom on earth (the Kingdom of God) at His second coming, at last bringing the peace mankind has always longed for but never achieved."
Download or read book Deceived By Evil A Great Sacrifice written by John Daniel Roberts and published by Writers Republic LLC. This book was released on 2021-11-30 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Deceived by Evil was conceived by a dream in a dream. A dream the author had after he’d dreamed of the funeral of a significant friend. And after reflecting on the funeral of many of his friends buried before their time, and all deceived by their own distractions. The dream, Deceived by Evil, is a brief synopsis or description of the damage that can occur when we’re vulnerable to the deceit of distractions that comes at us from a dark place. Most of the time, when we’re young, we are innocent and naïve to the many directions that life can pull us in, whether by bad parenting or many other abuses coming at us from all angles of darkness. This book is mainly about discernment, about being spiritually attuned to the negative forces at play and of a devil who is totally involved, by any means necessary, in the manipulation and orchestration of every chord and note played to the tune of our destruction. And as the book concludes, sometimes we must be ready to sacrifice that thing that looks right and feels good to the touch but deadly to the use. But it’s not necessary for you to have to sacrifice your life, if you learn from the lives that have been sacrificed to evil for your good. So if this book is received in its proper perspective by those who read it, my hope is that they will be able to lessen their chance of being Deceived by Evil.

Download or read book Combating the Lies of Satan written by Shirley White and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2013-04 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Satan is on a rampage; he has inundated our world with a multiplicity of dangerous lies and is convincing men to feast on them while rejecting God's holy Word. However, even though Satan's concocting these lies, man is not an innocent party to this deception; Satan may be spreading lies, but man entertains them of his own volition and perpetuates them. Man is electing to reject God and the doctrinal teachings of the Bible; he prefers to indulge teachings that agrantly contradict Scripture. Man is Satan's accomplice; he is complicit and culpable because he disregards the Word of God and chooses lies over truth. Average people have no clue they're being deceived by a clever and diabolical spirit. Satan's deception and cleverness are so astute that he's convinced many to believe the lie that he doesn't exist. However, he does exist, and the purpose of this book is to expose him, his lies, and his deceptions and to expose, refute, and combat the numerous deadly lies so prevalent in our world today that many have embraced. Much in this book will be seen by many as controversial and politically incorrect, but this book is factual and biblically sound; it will equip you with knowledge and insights from the Word of God to prevent you from falling prey to Satan's deceptions. God loves you, Jesus died for you, and it is my prayer that you carefully consider and investigate everything in this book and make the crucial decision to believe God and His Word versus Satan and his lies."

Download or read book Satan s Secret written by D. A. Teunis and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2003-06-06 with total page 690 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author radically addresses conflicting denominational beliefs associated with established Christian doctrinal teachings including the immortality of the soul, hell-fire/eternal torment, miracles, God's Kingdom, prayer, the Trinity and the salvation and eventual resurrection of the entire human race. Then, through extensively detailed scriptural research he provides a thought provoking and inspirational conclusion attributing these differences to the true source of universal deception, Satan, the father of lies and beguilement. Other topics that reveal Satan's influence on Christian thought and moral character covers abortion, homosexuality, capital punishment, occultism and the heinous terrorist attacks perpetrated on a country known for its Christian values. These are covered at length, in detail and are explained in conjunction with the plan of God and it's revelation through an intense study of His Word. Being a devoted non-denominational Bible student with 30 years of experience and personal connections has its reward as these dilemmas are explained through the eyes of this movement's most knowledgeable leaders. The author enlightens the reader to "lost" unparalleled dimensions in thinking, slicing through traditional parameters and exposing the "truth" which has been hidden from the majority of the followers of Christ for so many centuries. "It's time the world is reintroduced to the God of eternal love and not the God of wrath and punishment", says the author. "Come, let us reason together!"
