In the Second Book of Kings we have an example that shows that spiritual persons may have knowledge of happenings even though they may occur elsewhere. Gehazi, Elisha’s servant, wanted to hide from Elisha the money that he had received from Naaman the Syrian. But Elisha said: Was not my heart present when Naaman turned back from his chariot and went to meet you? This happens spiritually; the spirit sees it as though it were happening in its presence.

With regard to the deceptions that the devil brings about concerning this kind of knowledge and understanding there is much to say, for the deceptions that he effects in this way are many and are difficult to unmask. Through suggestion he can present to the soul many kinds of intellectual knowledge and implant them so firmly that it appears impossible for them not to be true.
