IF I WERE SATAN…

I would delude their minds into thinking that they had come from man's

effort, instead of God's blessings;

I would promote an attitude of loving things and using people, instead of

the other way around;

I would convince people that character is not an issue when it comes to

leadership;

I would make it legal to take the life of unborn babies;

I would take God out of the schools, where even the mention of His name was

grounds for a lawsuit;

I would come up with drugs that sedate the mind and target the young, and I

would get sports heroes to advertise them;

I would attack then family, the backbone of any nation. I would make

divorce acceptable and easy, even fashionable. If the family crumbles, so

does the nation;

I would persuade people that the church is irrelevant and out of date, the

Bible is for the naive:

I would dull the minds of Christians, and make them believe that prayer is

not important, and that faithfulness and obedience are optional;

I GUESS I WOULD LEAVE THINGS PRETTY MUCH THE WAY THEY ARE!

- By Paul Harvey
