Fanzaga

Fr. Livio Fanzaga, the Rome-educated, Vatican-endorsed writer and director of Europe’s largest Catholic radio network, warns: Efforts to soft-pedal the reality and continuous threat of the devil have left many Catholics ＂unarmed and unprepared＂ to resist him. But the question is: How does Satan tempt and deceive us? And how can we see through and resist him?

In The Deceiver: Our Daily Struggle with Satan, Fr. Fanzaga confidently guides you through everything the Catechism, Sacred Scripture, and the wisdom of the saints tell us about the wiles and antics of the devil. You’ll come to understand why evil exists, and you’ll explore real-life examples of how the enemy tempts and ensnares us. The Deceiver masterfully unmasks the devil’s seductive plan to create a kingdom of his own in your heart, ruled by pride, sensuality, greed, anger, fear, violence, and destruction.

Most importantly, Fr. Fanzaga provides you with the weapons you need to combat the darkness of the enemy and the seven capital vices. ＂Satan wants to buy you at a cheap price, but Jesus has poured out His blood in order to obtain your soul,＂ reflects the author.

These pages correct many of the most common misconceptions about Satan while shedding important light on the end times. They also reveal:

• The strategy of the evil one in attacking our minds and hearts
• Why sin is so alluring
• How we can help - and harm - others on their way to salvation
• How you can use the light of God to expose evil
• How to be on constant guard against temptation and Satan’s traps
• The proper roles of repentance and mortification
• The keys to opening your soul to grace and discernment

Fr. Fanzaga warns us in this stunning book: ＂In a cultural climate that excludes the supernatural, the devil acts without being noticed. In a context of life in which God and His moral law are denied, Satan moves like a fish in water. Souls without light and deprived of the
weapons of the holy battle are doomed.＂

The Deceiver will equip you with the weapons you need to defeat Satan while opening your eyes to the miracles of God’s healing love as you prepare for eternity.
