First. Have you a supreme contempt for the laws and authority of God?
Secondly. Are you disposed to resist his will, and gratify your own?
Thirdly. Do you reject the Scriptures so called, as containing unjust and unreasonable requirements?
Fourthly. Do you contemn and despise the sacraments and institutions of God?
Finally. Do you surrender yourself, soul and body, to my service, to be employed in whatever way I may judge conducive to the progress of my kingdom among men?
These questions, and others like them, are accompanied by a statement of immunities and privileges which Satan promises to confer in case the party gives his assent, and pledges himself to fidelity in all parts of the compact to the best of his ability. The advantages to be conferred on the part of Satan are as follows:
First. He promises to preserve his subject from all personal danger, for having entered into this contract.
Secondly. To allow him free indulgence in whatever sins may be most agreeable to his taste and disposition.
Thirdly. To invest him with new faculties, by which he may enter the spiritual world, and hold communion with kindred spirits, who inhabit the regions of the air.
Fourthly. To give him power over the bodies and minds of others, that he may torment and perplex them, and then free them from disquietude and pain, on condition that they will come over to his service.
