A grand battle is raging—right now—for the future of your soul.
Are you prepared to persevere against the raw power of Satan and his minions?
This battle is not one of abstract ideas and principles. It is a tough, personal struggle that pits God and you against Satan.
Worse: the nearer you grow to God and the closer to victory, the greater are the traps the Devil lays in your path.
With God’s help—and the help of the good angels, who are truly your friends and guardians—you can repel the Devil; but to succeed, you must first come to understand Satan’s devious ways and recognize his subtle paths of attack.
Who is the Devil? arms you with that knowledge, enabling you to identify temptations early and equip yourself to repel them long before they grow strong enough to overthrow you.
In these pages written over half a century ago, Nicolas Corte gives you incontrovertible proof that Satan exists, that he and his legions of devils assault you daily, and that by means of relentless attacks—overwhelmingand subtle—they intend to corrupt you, damn you, and drag you into Hell along with those you love and all the rest of mankind.
Soon, the Devil’s trials will cease to be for you occasions of sin, becoming instead (as they did for scores of saints) providential opportunities for genuine spiritual victories.
In the pages of Who is the Devil?, Nicolas Corte will also show you:
- Why, if you are Christian, you must believe in devils.
- Your own personal devil? Did you know it's not just Satan trying to bring you down?
- A simple way to banish fear of the Devil . . . no matter how scarlet your sins
- How far the “kingdom of Satan” extends into this world (You’ll be surprised!)
- Why even as we fall into sin, we remain “like unto angels”
- How some angels sinned, and why—unlike our sins—theirs are unforgiveable
- Witches and sorcerers: the powers they don’t really have (and the dangerous ones they do!)
- How, long before the Internet, the Devil assaulted St. Anthony with obscene images. The saint repelled them (and shows how we can, too)
- Satanism: what it really is.
- Exorcisms and the priests who perform them: actual cases considered
- Finally: how, despite the subtlety and raw power of Satan and his minions, you can be assured of salvation.
