Mormon Direction

Insights do come to the faithful as to how his scriptural passages work with each other and to realize their true application. This is where true understanding of the gospel occurs.

It has been no surprise to me that insights or inspiration is a crucial part of learning the word of God. It is always by this method that we can learn how to understand the word of God and learn how God works. It is no different with how God protects his Church and his faithful. 

It was with these insights that I learned about the “Gate of Authority”. A term that I use to describe how God protects his Church against Satan.

I had wondered why there are other Christian’s that go around claiming they succeeded in casting out demons or protected others from demon attacks. I wondered how these other Christians, who are not of the Lord’s Church and do not have the Holy Priesthood, can succeed, to any degree, in these efforts?

It is the purpose of these attacks to degrade, malign and cause confusion, inserting doubt and even resentment into the minds and hearts of devout Saints.

Being human and mortal is tough all by itself, but when the natural weaknesses of mortality are bent and used by the selfish evil doers, it makes life all that much harder. With such a trait and characteristic of these “anti’s” one wonders why they are not seen for the malicious and destructive nature they are, but unfortunately many good people are badly affected by the misguided.
