How Satan Deceives You

On the eve of annihilation, we all drank beer and watched the Superbowl. While we watched, those who controlled the world?s wealth and influence slowly strangled our civilization and the people of our wonderful world.

But all is not lost to greed, conceit, and immorality, for our world and its people are indeed mostly good. Our human devices, on the other hand, like the bottom line and political power, are all fleeting, temporary, and have only coincidental effect. In Good and Evil Volume III: The Eve of Annihilation, Professor Emeritus and author Robert R. Fiedler challenges us to take another, deeper look at what we accept for fact and leads us in an essential exploration of universal Christianity and God?s universal truth.

What can good people do when the wealth and power of public and private institutions are controlled by those with no respect for their fellow man? Where can we look for guidance when men alien to decency have assumed responsible positions in government and finance? The contest is as it has always been?combatting what is evil, loving what is good, and living out, as best we can, our Christ-given human destiny.

     The truth is we are all just a little bit crazy in some areas of our life to a whole lot of crazy.  Being miss-directed is one of the things mankind has in common as the various forms of insanity work the same way in every one of us. We?ve all been programmed to unknowingly believe in a host of lies and it?s our belief in the need to uphold the lies that do us in.

     There are laws that pertain to the universe.  These laws cannot be broken without creating diverse consequences.  With every action there is an opposite reaction of effect.  And where do the decisions we make come from?  They generally come from our minds.  The question then becomes, ?Who?s controlling the mind??  If your mind is at work and in agreement with you then you would rightly say you are controlling your mind.  But if you occasionally find that your mind is working against you then you should consider you are not solely in control.

     Jesus referred to Satan as, the father of lies.  I intend to show how the workings of evil are constructed through the placement of lies and how these lies in combination are at work to disrupt our lives.  I will show how the longest and greatest lie is packaged and how the six major steps that makes up a combined package works powerfully against you.  Then I will show how the effects from the lies get all mixed in with the pain you experience and how the end results can be devastating.

      This book is about our need for revelation and offers the reader an opportunity to begin a personal journey with life as it truly is.  This is a lifelong journey in Spirit and truth and it begins with your full recognition of the need for having God working continuously in your life.

"Never let 'em see you sweat."
"Never change diapers in mid-stream."
"Never let a crisis go to waste."
"Never ruin an apology with an excuse."
"Never go to a doctor whose office plants have died."

When we strongly encourage people to do something, it's called an exhortation. But what is the proper term for strongly discouraging people? One candidate is admonition. Another is dehortation, the opposite of exhortation. But perhaps the best term for an emphatic piece of dissuasive advice is neverism. You won't find the term in any dictionary (at least not yet) because quotation anthologist Dr. Mardy Grothe coined it himself for this collection of nearly two thousand quotable cautionary warnings. With the whimsical and witty intermixed with the serious and profound, contributors range from Aesop and Marcus Aurelius to John Wayne and Mae West. Grothe also tells the fascinating "back stories" of scores of classic quotations as well as the history of hundreds more that have never before appeared in a quotation anthology. Organized by topics such as Wit & Wordplay, Politics & Government, Sports, Stage & Screen, and The Literary Life, this is a book about quotations as well as a book of them. Neverisms is sure to delight quotation lovers and language aficionados everywhere.

If the only tool you have is a hammer, you tend to see every problem as a nail.

If you do not tell the truth about yourself, you cannot tell it about other people.

If you can't be kind, at least be vague.

An aphorism is a pithy observation that attempts to communicate a truth about the human experience, often with a dash of wit. History's greatest thinkers and writers have viewed the aphorism as a potent tool, and it is remarkable how many of their most memorable observations have been introduced with the biggest little word in the human language: If. These ifferisms, as they have been dubbed by quotation anthologist Dr. Mardy Grothe, demonstrate the powerful role that hypothetical and conditional thinking play in our lives.

This novel compendium of wisdom, wit, and wordplay presents nearly two thousand quotations that all begin with the word if. Alongside history's most famous sayings, readers will find—and often learn the fascinating story behind—such modern classics as "If you build it, they will come" and "If anything can go wrong, it will." In chapters on sex, love, sports, politics, advice, gender dynamics, and more, quotation lovers will savor scintillating observations from the usual suspects—Twain, Wilde, Shaw, Emerson, and Franklin—as well as scores of contemporary wits and wordsmiths.
