462.  I Gave It to Saint Ignatius(April 3, 1995)
  Nancy and George were praying in the apparition room.
  Nancy was having a personal conversation with Jesus but she still
  tested
the message as she had been taught by both Jesus and the Blessed
Mother. By testing the spirits as Jesus has taught her, Nancy
endeavors to discern when the devil is trying to deceive.  The devil
got Adam and Eve, who walked and talked with God, to take their
attention and eyes off God and to deceive them to sin.  The devil has
not stopped deceiving.
  Once Nancy called Satan "Stupid" when he was bothering her.  Nancy
heard Satan reply, "Stupid? [he paused] I have the whole world
deceived."
  Reflecting upon all of this, George said, "I wish Jesus would teach
  us
more about testing the spirits to help people like myself who do not
have mystical visions and mystical experiences."
  Jesus said to Nancy, "He already has it."
  Immediately what flashed in George's mind was St. Ignatius of
  Loyola's
"Rules for the Discernment of Spirits," [page 129 of the Spiritual
Exercises of St. Ignatius published by Doubleday Image Books] since
his writings parallel what Jesus has taught Nancy about testing the
spirits concerning her visions and the messages she receives to avoid
deception.  But St. Ignatius' teachings should be used by each of us.
  Jesus said, "I gave it to Saint Ignatius."
  Then George knew why these teachings were similar to what Nancy had
been taught.
