STRANGE VOICES

   The devil can speak to people and have them believing that the devil is trying to trick them.
   Satan is a powerful creature, a strong adversary.  He gets between people and God, running interference with deceptions, distractions and distortions, desiring that people will follow their own hearts and do as they please. 
   Satan is so sneaky, so sly, and so creative that he can disguise his voice and have people believing that his voice is the voice of God---while, at the same time, have people believing that he is God and that God is the devil.
    Such is the voice of Satan:
   You know, you did the right thing this morning by having your babies baptized with water.  Now you can rest and be assured that their little souls will be with me if they should perish before thee. Just keep doing as my priests say to do, for they speak of me.
   You know, you really should consider going to the seminary and become a man of the cloth.  You speak with a tender voice, people like you, and you know how much you like people.  Besides, a career opportunity like this is not offered to everybody, but you are special.  They will give you a house, a car, a cell phone, a laptop, and everything else will be provided, including a pension for your retirement years.  Your parents and grandparents will be so proud of you.  Beyond this, you will not have to sweat as a worker in the field, for they will come to you for wise counsel.  I know you have been praying about this matter, but now is the time to step forward, take action, and see your prayers fulfilled.
   You know you love your boyfriend, but now would be a good time to prove the sincerity of your heart and take your love to the next level.


   Aren't you tired of people saying:
       you can't do this,
      you can't do that. 
  Why can't I do what I want to do? 
  Don't treat me like this,
     don't treat me like that. 
  Just leave me alone and let me be as I want!


   There you go!  Step out and be bold!  Be daring.  They are just jealous after all.


   You know, if you believe all that born again stuff about Jesus, what will people say about you?  Why, your parents will disown you.  Your friends will forsake you.  You will no longer be the star at the country club.  You will be different, you will be odd.  You will no longer fit in, no matter where you go.  You will become a stranger.  They will laugh at you and call you names.  So just calm down and relax, for you know that the devil is trying to trick you to believe that you do not know God.  You know him, right?  Remember when you were baptized?  Remember when you wept when your grandmother died?  Remember when your priest prayed for you and forgave you for your sins?  So why don't you go home and sleep on this matter and see how you feel in the morning. 


   Whenever people speak against God, they are speaking for the devil.
   Whenever people speak against Christ, they are speaking for the devil.
   Whenever people speak against the Bible, they are speaking for the devil.
   Did you know that many people who speak against God, Christ, and the Bible are members of Christian churches and Christian religions?  How can this be?
   The resurrection of Jesus Christ is the greatest event in human history, and belief in the Lord's resurrection is the watershed for our faith in Christ for salvation. 
   Could it be, then, that many people in Christian churches and Christian religions do not truly believe in the resurrection of Christ the Lord?  That, to them, Christ is still dead and still in a tomb?  That Christianity, to them, is just a religion?  For, at the same time, they accept Christmas and Easter, and they get excited about Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny, yet they have no zeal for the Lord.
   In coming to know Christ, the Lord gives us spiritual discernment, which enables us to know the difference between sheep and wolves, or sheep and goats, which also helps us to tell the difference between ministers of God from the priests of Satan.
