I saw that years ago.
Here it is in it's full glory:
SATAN’S CONVENTION
Satan called a worldwide convention. In his opening address to his evil angels, he said,” We can’t keep the Christians from going to Church. We can’t keep them from reading their bibles and knowing the truth. We can’t even keep them from conservative values, but we can do something else.
We can keep them from forming an intimate, abiding relationship experience in Jehovah and His Son Jesus. If they gain that connection with God, our power over them is broken. So let them go to Kingdom Halls, let them have their conservative lifestyles, but steal their time, so they can’t gain that experience in Jesus Christ. This is what I want you to do angels, distract them from gaining hold of their Saviour and maintaining that vital connection throughout their day. “How shall we do this?” shouted his angels.
Keep them busy in the non- essentials of life and invent unnumbered schemes to occupy their minds, he answered them, Tempt them to spend, spend, spend, then borrow, borrow, borrow. Convince the wives to go to work for long hours and the husbands to work 6 or 7 days a week, 10-12 hours a day, so they can afford their lifestyles. Keep them from spending time with their children. As their family fragments, soon, their homes will offer no escape from pressure of work.”
“Over stimulate their minds so they cannot hear that still small voice. Entice them to play the Radio/CD player whenever they drive, to keep the TV, DVDs, iPods, CDs and their PCs going constantly in their homes, and by all means multiply the Internet sites to keep those with computers busy, busy, busy and rob there time with useless email. And see to it that every store and restaurant in the world plays no biblical music constantly. This will jam their minds and break that union with Jehovah God.”
“Fill their coffee tables with magazines and newspapers. Pound their minds with the news 24 hours a day. Invade their driving moments with billboards. Flood their mailboxes with junk mail, sweepstakes, mail order catalogues and every kind of newsletter and promotional offering, free products, services and false hopes.”
“Even in their recreation, let them be excessive. Have them return from their recreation exhausted, disquieted and unprepared for the coming week. Don’t let them go out in nature to reflect on God’s wonders. Send them to amusement parks, sporting events, concerts and movies instead. And when they meet for spiritual fellowship, involve them in gossip and small talk so they leave with troubled consciences and unsettled emotion.” “Let them be involved in soul-winning, but crowd their lives with so many good causes, they have no time to seek power from Jehovah. Soon they will be working in their own strength, sacrificing their health and family unity for the good of the cause.”
It was quite a convention in the end. And the evil angels went eagerly to their assignments causing Christians everywhere to get busy, busy, busy and rush here and there. Has the Devil been successful at his scheme?
