    WE ARE NOT IGNORANT OF SATAN’S DEVICES OR SCHEMES – PART 3 This is a series where we examine some means by which Satan has made inroads into human activity. It might be surprising to hear that we are not ignorant of Satan’s devices, but the bible says that, and this is an attempt to explore that ...read more
