15a In class project for seminary students on the power of satan to imitate the work of the Holy Spirit.

In this project students do an extensive study on the power of satan to imitate the work and ministry of the Holy Spirit. You say Mary has appeared to you, tell me the five facial characteristics that distinguish Mary from the demon goddess Aphrodite. You say Jesus has appeared to you, tell me the five facial characteristics that distinguish Jesus from satan. The fact is that we simply do not have the information nor the experience to know what is of satanic spirits and what is of the Holy Spirit when relying on our own unaided mental powers. We must rely upon the holy, eternal, inerrant, written Word of God. You say that you commanded the demon to speak the truth. Well, when you command the wind and the rain do they obey? When you command the sick and ill, are they universally and instantly healed? When you command the dead to rise, do they come to life? No, and when you command the demons to speak the truth you have no more spiritual power to make them speak the truth than you do the wind, the rain, the ill, the infirm nor the dead.:
