None are in greater danger than those who deny that the devil and his angels exist. Many accept their suggestions while they think they are following their own wisdom. As we approach the end of
time, when Satan will work with his greatest power to deceive, he
spreads everywhere the belief that he does not exist. It is his policy
to conceal himself and his way of working.
The great deceiver is afraid that we will become acquainted with
his deceptions. To disguise his real character he has influenced
people to portray him as something to ridicule or despise. He is
pleased to be painted as comical, misshapen, half animal and half
human. He is pleased to hear his name used in jokes and mockery.
Because he has masked himself with superb skill, many people ask,
“Does such a being really exist?” Because Satan can easily control
the minds of those who are unaware of his influence, the Word of
God reveals to us his secret forces, and this puts us on guard.
