The Devil's Miracles And How To Know Them by Philip Carlyon. This 19th-century theological treatise examines whether the Devil can perform miracles and, if so, how believers may distinguish satanic wonders from genuine divine acts. Carlyon argues miracles function as credentials for new dispensations and measures the discernment problem by Pascal's rule: judge miracles by doctrine and doctrine by miracles. He surveys biblical episodes (Moses and Aaron vs. Pharaoh; Elijah vs. Baal; Paul vs. Elymas) to show how true miracles confirm God's truth, while lying wonders seek to subvert it. The author asserts that any miracle that leads to idolatry or undermines Jesus Christ cannot be from God. He also discusses prophecy and the signs of the end times, warning of the coming Antichrist and his deceptive wonders. Throughout, Carlyon offers safeguards—the standard of Scripture, the conscience, and historical testing—to help believers remain steadfast in faith amid rapid social change and increasing knowledge.
