A. W. Pink provides a thoroughly biblical description of Satan including his existence as a personal being, his origin, his fall, and his position since he fell. Pink then concentrates on Satan’s counterfeit gospel which so closely resembles the real gospel that multitudes are deceived. It is not revolutionary nor is it obviously heretical, but aims at “peace and unity.” Toning down the true gospel’s offensive doctrines and smoothing its rough edges, Satan’s gospel has great appeal to the carnal mind. Sadly, many who are deluded by it will in the end hear the most terrifying words, “I never knew you; depart from me, ye that work iniquity.” Pink concludes with timely advice for us all, “How necessary it is then to find out where we really are; to examine ourselves and see whether we be in the faith.”
