The Scriptures are equally definite
in affirming the existence OF both
individual Gods and devils.
OF the former we recognize three,
the Holy Trinity. comprising God
the Eternal Father. God the son. who
Is our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ,
and God the Holy Ghost, these three
individual Personages constituting
the presiding council having supreme
power and authority throughout the
universe, and collectively known as
the Godhead.
The devils are many. and their
chieftain is Satan. who though un-
embodied is as truly an Individual
being as is any of us. He is the
parsonage who in the priIneval world
bore the exalted title OF Lucifer. a
son Of the morning. and who with
his rebellious horde was cast out
prior to the peopiing of the earth

Covenants %: 3s-3s, and 76:25-27;

On the best authority. that OF the
Lord Jesus Christ. we learn some-
thing of the character of this fallen
SON of the morning. the antagonist
of righteousness, and the enemy OF
God and man. In denouncing the
| false beliefs and evil practices OF
certain unregenerate Jews. Christ
spoke in these definite and forceful
terms:
"Ye are of your father the devil
and the Iusts of your father ye will
do. He was a murderer from the
beginning, and abode not In the
! truth, because there L. no truth IN
him. When he speaketh n ne. hs

me mott John s:44-45.)'
A liar and a murderer from the
| beginning, He il was who beguilet
the mother of the race. and that by
the most dangerous OF all falsehoods
the haIf-truth. in the use of which
he is a past master. -
He it was who taught the awful
secret of murder TO the fratricidc
Cain, batting the hook Of infamou,
temptation with the lie. that. By
staying his brother, Cain would com,

have much gain beside. (See Pear
OF Great Price. pp. 22 and 23.)
He il was who deceived Israel. BY
inducing them to revolt against tbs
