Is Satan, the Devil, a Supernatural Being Fallen from Heaven?


Book Description

As Christians, we are told that the devil--Satan--is our greatest enemy. "Rebuke the devil, and he will flee!" "Cast the devil out, and you will be free from your temptation!" And even when we speak of our own struggles, we identify Satan as the source of these problems--"The devil has really fought me today." But who or what really is this devil, Satan? Where is he, and how do we actually stop him if we find him? And shouldn't we be trying to learn as much as we can about this enemy? In Is Satan, the Devil, a Supernatural Being Fallen from Heaven? author, pastor, and chaplain Dr. Maston Love Jr. exposes the truth about this devil and where he is--but most importantly, he explains what the devil is not. Although church doctrine tells us that Satan was once a beautiful angel who fell from grace, the Bible itself offers more clarity on the truth of his existence. With a careful examination of the Word, Dr. Love shows us how Satan is actually a creation of humankind and not a supernatural source of evil created by God. Was Satan really with God during the creation? And does the Bible even support Satan as the cause of evil on the earth? Or, is Satan more like a human construction that can be fought on the battlefield of the mind? Explore within to discover how to fight the true evil of Satan and be renewed in Christ.

Heaven and Hell


Book Description

Over half of Americans believe in a literal heaven, in a literal hell. Most people who hold these beliefs are Christian and assume they are the age-old teachings of the Bible. Ehrman shows that eternal rewards and punishments are found nowhere in the Old Testament, and are not what Jesus or his disciples taught. He recounts the long history of the afterlife, ranging from The Epic of Gilgamesh up to the writings of Augustine, focusing especially on the teachings of Jesus and his early followers. Ehrman shows that competing views were intimately connected with the social, cultural, and historical worlds out of which they emerged. -- adapted from jacket

A Trip Into the Supernatural


Book Description




Demons


Book Description

The truth about demons is far stranger—and even more fascinating—than what's commonly believed. Are demons real? Are they red creatures with goatees holding pitchforks and sitting on people's shoulders while whispering bad things? Did a third of the angels really rebel with Satan? Are demons and "principalities and powers" just terms for the same entities, or are they different members of the kingdom of darkness? Is the world a chaotic mess because of what happened in Eden, or is there more to the story of evil? What people believed about evil spiritual forces in ancient biblical times is often very different than what people have been led to believe about them today. And this ancient worldview is missing from most attempts to treat the topic. In Demons, Michael Heiser debunks popular presuppositions about the very real powers of darkness. Rather than traditions, stories, speculations, or myths, Demons is grounded in what ancient people of both the Old and New Testament eras believed about evil spiritual forces and in what the Bible actually says. You'll come away with a sound, biblical understanding of demons, supernatural rebellion, evil spirits, and spiritual warfare.
