About this audiobook
Not every lie sounds untrue.
Some lies are repeated so often they seem to be common sense. That's why lies about God are so dangerous. The Gospel According to Satan examines eight lies the enemy wants us to believe and provides eight lines of counterattack against them. The lies include:
- God just wants you to be happy;
- you only live once
- you need to live your truth; and
- just let go and let God.
Jared C. Wilson reveals why these lies appeal to us, shows how they harm us, and provides ways to counteract them. We can renounce Satan's counterfeit gospel, but first we must see it for what it is.
Accompanying charts are available in the audiobook companion PDF download.

We will all do well to read this book and confront the lies we are being sold."--Kyle Idleman, senior pastor of Southeast Christian Church and author of Not a Fan and Don’t Give Up

31 ratings3 reviews
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5excellent walkthrough and explanation of the lies so many in the church believe about God. convicting but speaks the gospel truths into those lies.
- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5Started pretty solidly, but got very political. How embarrassing to write a book, bashing a current president, only to have it published during the term of a president who is unequivocally marching us towards the apocalypse.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Powerful word about the schemes of Satan and the truth of the Gospel. The author is faithful to his mission to address the lies of Satan in this age without becoming too focused on the enemy, rather he puts the spotlight on Christ, the cross, and Scripture.
