Satan's Last Campaign

Satan's Last Campaign

Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist
shall come, even now are there many antichrists; whereby we know that it is
the last time. 1 John 2:18.

The enemy is preparing for his last campaign against the church. He has so
concealed himself from view that many can hardly believe that he exists,
much less can they be convinced of his amazing activity and power. . . .

Man is Satan's captive and is naturally inclined to follow his suggestions
and do his bidding. He has in himself no power to oppose effectual
resistance to evil. It is only as Christ abides in him by living faith . . .
that man may venture to face so terrible a foe. Every other means of defense
is utterly vain. It is only through Christ that Satan's power is limited.
This is a momentous truth that all should understand. Satan is busy every
moment, going to and fro, walking up and down in the earth, seeking whom he
may devour. But the earnest prayer of faith will baffle his strongest
efforts. . . .

Satan hopes to involve the remnant people of God in the general ruin that is
coming upon the earth. As the coming of Christ draws nigh, he will be more
determined and decisive in his efforts to overthrow them. Men and women will
arise professing to have some new light or some new revelation whose
tendency is to unsettle faith in the old landmarks. Their doctrines will not
bear the test of God's word, yet souls will be deceived. False reports will
be circulated, and some will be taken in this snare. . . . We cannot be too
watchful against every form of error, for Satan is constantly seeking to
draw men from the truth. . . .

Some men have no firmness of character. They are like a ball of putty and
can be pressed into any conceivable shape. . . . This weakness, indecision,
and inefficiency must be overcome. There is an indomitableness about true
Christian character which cannot be molded or subdued by adverse
circumstances. Men must have moral backbone, an integrity which cannot be
flattered, bribed, or terrified. . . .

God has set bounds that Satan cannot pass. Our most holy faith is this
barrier; and if we build ourselves up in the faith, we shall be safe in the
keeping of the Mighty One.
