Now he which stablisheth us with you in Christ,
and hath anointed us, is God;
2 Corinthians 1:21
"In the last days Satan will use all his powers against God's people,
to afflict,
to distress,
to discourage them,
to cause them all the trouble he possibly can.
Those who know the truth and yet unite with him in this work have lost their spiritual anointing. They are blinded by the sophistry of the enemy, and cannot see afar off.
They have forgotten that they were purged from their old sins."
