All should understand that Satan was once an exalted angel. His rebellion shut him out of heaven, but did not destroy his powers and make him a beast. Since his fall he has turned his mighty strength against the government of heaven. He has been growing more artful, and has learned the most successful manner to come to the children of men with his temptations.

Alle bør forstå at Satan en gang var en ophøjet engel. Hans oprør lukkede ham ud af himlen, men udslettede ikke hans magt og gjorde ham til et udyr. Siden hans fald har han vendt sin mægtige styrke imod himlens regering. Han har er blevet mere listig, og har lært den mest succesrige måde at komme til menneskebørnene på med hans fristelser.
