Martin Luther reported that his conflict with Satan became so intense that at one point it was as if he could see him. In anger over Satan's incessant attacks, Luther picked up his inkwell and threw it at him. It hit the wall with a resounding crash, splattering ink throughout the room. The stains remained for many years, reminding all who saw them of how vivid spiritual conflict can be.

Whittaker Chambers confirms this in his short story, "The Devil," which I excerpted earlier on this thread, with additional details:

"Martin Luther himself has described how, when he was translating the Bible, the Devil often appeared and debated with him the proper interpretation of the Hebrew text. On one occasion Luther hurled an inkstand at him. It missed the Fiend but left. a mark which can still be seen on the wall of Luther's cell in the Wartburg."

There's no question in my mind that the Fiend exists; and not just because of Luther's testimony.

He is also extraordinarily active at this point in history....

I pray daily for a spiritual reawakening in America, that God may heal this land.

Read up on some of the Catholic saints and mystics.
Much more than Luther; and backed up by independent witnesses.
