Don't Be Ignorant of Satan's Devices


Book Description

Don't Be Ignorant of Satan's Devices came to me in a night vision. The Lord literally showed me the book. It was around 2:30-3:00 a.m., and I awoke with a clear sense of the presence of the Holy Spirit. The book seemed to be suspended in air before my eyes. When I saw my name on the cover, a Holy Ghost thrill ran through me like fire. Then the Lord showed that DON'T was an acronym. D is for division, O is for offense, N is for negativity, and the T is for timidity. He gave me a base scripture for each letter, and I quickly wrote down the notes. Since there is so much scripture in the book, it is very possible that someone could be saved through reading it. Yet the purpose of the book is to educate Christians about Satan's schemes and tricks. In the writing of this book, I have attempted to compare scripture with scripture since only the Word is the absolute truth. At times, it may seem that I am pounding the nail right through the board, so to speak. Yet it is my heart's desire to teach the whole counsel of God on every subject which I attempt to teach. Even though it was written from prison and the incidents related in the book occurred in prison, the teachings contained in this book apply to all Christians. Paul wrote that "We are not ignorant of Satan's devices." Yet today, March 30, 2020, much of the church in America allows Satan to divide the church, to steal our power, to kill our effectiveness, and to destroy our witness. We must learn to work together as one body of Christ. Wake up, church! Don't be ignorant of Satan's devices!

Deliberate Ignorance


Book Description

Psychologists, economists, historians, computer scientists, sociologists, philosophers, and legal scholars explore the conscious choice not to seek information. The history of intellectual thought abounds with claims that knowledge is valued and sought, yet individuals and groups often choose not to know. We call the conscious choice not to seek or use knowledge (or information) deliberate ignorance. When is this a virtue, when is it a vice, and what can be learned from formally modeling the underlying motives? On which normative grounds can it be judged? Which institutional interventions can promote or prevent it? In this book, psychologists, economists, historians, computer scientists, sociologists, philosophers, and legal scholars explore the scope of deliberate ignorance.
