12. What class of God's servants have evil angels, through wicked men, seemed to make special
objects of attack?
Answer
"Which of the prophets have not your fathers persecuted?" Acts 7: 52.
NOTES - "Of all classes of men employed by the heavenly Father in the work of redemption,
none are more fiercely hated by the wicked angels than the whole line of the prophets; for from the first to
the last they foretell the final and eternal overthrow and utter extinction of the 'powers of darkness,' the
'spirits of disobedience.'" -"Footprints of Angels in Fields of Revelation," page 14.
Evil angels also incite men and nations to war, and by this means divert their attention from things
pertaining to the kingdom of God, and so take peace from the earth. Rev. 16:14. This will end in
Armageddon.
"Familiar with the laws which govern mental conditions, the fallen hosts ply all their specious arts
to excite personal suspicions and animosities, and to create national resentments and bloody conflicts, their
chief delight being to compass the destruction of peace and the banishment of concord from the earth, to
embitter the poor children of sin and sorrow against each other, and turn our world into an arena of strife
and crime."-Id., page 2.
