Satan is willing that every transgressor of God’s law shall claim to be holy. This is what he himself is doing. He is satisfied when men rest their faith on spurious doctrines and religious enthusiasm; for he can use such persons to good purpose in deceiving souls. There are many professedly sanctified ones who are aiding Satan in his work. They talk much of feeling; they speak of their love for God. But God does not recognize their love; for it is a delusion of the enemy. God has given these persons light, but they have refused to accept it. With the father of lies, they will receive the reward of disobedience.—The Review and Herald, June 26, 1900. {Ev 597.2}

Satan er villig til at alle, som overtræder Guds lov, hævder at være hellige. Det er hvad han selv gør. Han er glad når mennesker lægger deres tro på falske læresætninger og religiøs entuisiasme; for han kan godt bruge sådanne personer til at bedrage sjæle med. Der er mange bekendende helliggjorte som hjælper Satan i hans arbejde. De taler meget om følelser; de taler om deres kærlighed til Gud. Men Gud genkender ikke deres kærlighed; for det er et bedrag fra fjenden. Gud har givet disse personer lys, men de nægtede at acceptere det. Hos løgnens fader vil de modtage ulydighedens løn. - Review and Herald, 26. Juni 1900.
