Beware of Satan's Agents
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. 1 Tim. 4:1.

After the passing of the time in 1844, we had fanaticism of every kind to
meet. . . The experience of the past will be repeated. In the future Satan's
superstitions will assume new forms. Errors will be presented in a pleasing
and flattering manner. False theories, clothed with garments of light, will
be presented to God's people. Thus Satan will try to deceive, if possible,
the very elect. Most seducing influences will be exerted; minds will be
hypnotized.

Corruptions of every type, similar to those existing among the
antediluvians, will be brought in to take minds captive. The exaltation of
nature as God, the unrestrained license of the human will, the counsel of
the ungodly--these Satan uses as his agencies to bring about certain ends.
He will employ the power of mind over mind to carry out his designs. The
most sorrowful thought of all is that under his deceptive influence men will
have a form of godliness, without having a real connection with God. Like
Adam and Eve, who ate the fruit from the tree of the knowledge of good and
evil, many are even now feeding upon the deceptive morsels of error.

Satanic agencies are clothing false theories in an attractive garb, even as
Satan in the Garden of Eden concealed his identity from our first parents by
speaking through the serpent. These agencies are instilling into human minds
that which in reality is deadly error. The hypnotic influence of Satan will
rest upon those who turn from the plain word of God to pleasing fables.

It is those who have had the most light that Satan most assiduously seeks to
ensnare. He knows that if he can deceive them, they will, under his control,
clothe sin with garments of righteousness, and lead many astray.

I say to all: Be on your guard; for as an angel of light Satan is walking in
every assembly of Christian workers, and in every church, trying to win the
members to his side. I am bidden to give to the people of God the warning:
"Be not deceived; God is not mocked." Gal. 6:7.
