Book Synopsis Demonology for the Global Church by : Scott D. MacDonald
Download or read book Demonology for the Global Church written by Scott D. MacDonald and published by Langham Global Library. This book was released on 2021-06-01 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As Christians, how do we address the contentious and often disturbing subject of demonology? Our cultural paradigms pit us between the extremes of skepticism and sensationalism. Increasingly diverse Christian communities are in desperate need of a biblical understanding of the demonic that transcends cultural frameworks – an understanding that will challenge assumptions, rebuke errors, and unite Christians in scriptural truth. Demonology for the Global Church endeavors to provide the biblical and theological essentials for a unified Christian perspective of the demonic. Avoiding speculation and anecdotal evidence, Scott D. MacDonald roots his analysis in Scripture. He frames a biblical demonology in light of global and contextual concerns, offering an understanding that avoids the pitfalls of anti-supernaturalism and over emphasis. If the church is to effectively overcome its spiritual adversaries, Christians from around the world must stand and resist together. This is an essential resource for the global church, relevant to students of theology, institutional scholars, cross-cultural missionaries, local pastors, and all types of Christian leaders.

Book Synopsis Gods of this World by : Shandon L. Guthrie
Download or read book Gods of this World written by Shandon L. Guthrie and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2018-10-30 with total page 457 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Philosophers of religion have focused almost exclusively on the existence and nature of God and the nature and destiny of human beings. But these philosophers have been remiss in engaging discussions about the possibility of there being adverse gods of this world (demonic beings) despite being a doctrine that comprises a significant part of the Christian confession. This drought in the literature has left a number of questions unaddressed, including: Hasn't science buried the demonic? Are there any successful philosophical arguments for the existence of Satan? What kind of being is Satan? Is he the fallen angel of lore? Is it reasonable for Christians to say that demons are purely immaterial spirits? Can demons causally interact with the physical world and its inhabitants? Can demons perform diabolical miracles? Shandon Guthrie broaches new territory beginning with a rigorous defense for the existence of Satan and his cohorts. He then advances and defends a model for how to understand their nature in terms of their ontology and causal powers. No other book has attempted a full-fledged natural diabology on behalf of Christian orthodoxy. This is a must-read for anyone interested in the dark side of Christian theology and metaphysics.
Book Synopsis Silencing Satan by : Sharon Beekmann
Download or read book Silencing Satan written by Sharon Beekmann and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2012-02-01 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Silencing Satan: A Handbook of Biblical Demonology is about the nature and strategies of Satan and the demons, and their defeat through the life, death, and resurrection of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. The book is for Christians in ministry, whether seminarians, pastors, Bible teachers, Christian counselors, or lay leaders. It is for all who desire an informed faith relevant to supernatural evil and the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Each chapter reflects extensive research and is succinctly written to enable believers to quickly grasp biblical truths that expose the lies and half-truths propagated by popular culture, within and outside the church. The authors teach that when face to face with supernatural evil in its various guises--apparitions, voices, sensations, false doctrine, and immoral temptations--believers resist the devil and reflexively turn to Jesus and Scripture. They fight by living a radical life of faith, expressed through love and obedience to Christ. As they do, God himself redeems the evil that Satan intends for his vainglory. God is building his church, and the gates of hades will not prevail against her (Matt 16:18)!
Book Synopsis Witchcraft, Demons and Deliverance by : Claudia Währisch-Oblau
Download or read book Witchcraft, Demons and Deliverance written by Claudia Währisch-Oblau and published by LIT Verlag Münster. This book was released on 2015 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beliefs in witchcraft and demons still shape many societies and seem to be increasing rather than disappearing with modernization and urbanization. Witch hunts in Africa and Asia show the scope of the problem. The deliverance practices of pentecostal and charismatic churches are widely controversial and their effects are rather ambiguous. The contributions in this volume, written by experts and practitioners from four continents, analyze these phenomena from the perspectives of intercultural theology, anthropology, and ethnology, and also describe the responses of Catholic and Protestant churches.

Book Synopsis Silencing Satan: 13 Studies for Individuals and Groups by : Sharon Beekmann
Download or read book Silencing Satan: 13 Studies for Individuals and Groups written by Sharon Beekmann and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2013-02-12 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 13 lessons of this study guide help Christians develop an informed faith about supernatural evil and the gospel of Jesus Christ. Each lesson refers the reader to significant teachings in Silencing Satan: Handbook of Biblical Demonology. In the book, the authors teach about the nature and strategies of Satan and the demons, and their defeat through the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. They advocate resisting the devil in his various guises--apparitions, voices, sensations, false doctrine, and immoral temptations--by reflexively turning to Jesus Christ and Scripture. The authors expose the half-truths and lies propagated by popular culture. They caution not to fill in gaps of understanding with extra-biblical sources. Does the study of Satan and the demons increase fear or give him too much attention? In fact, when presented from a biblical perspective, such knowledge can increase faith in Jesus Christ and enable Christians to effectively serve God and his church. Believers are challenged to live a radical life of faith, expressed through love and obedience to Christ. Seminarians, pastors, Bible teachers, Christian counselors, and lay leaders will find this study useful in individual and small group situations. A leaders' guide is available in the appendix.

Book Synopsis Manual on Demonology by : The Bcc Bookstore Inc
Download or read book Manual on Demonology written by The Bcc Bookstore Inc and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2021-07-17 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Demonology (the study, classification and activities of demons) is "invading" the kingdom of Satan. The Bible calls him the god of this world who has blinded the minds of those that believe not.But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost: In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ who is the image of God should shine unto them. II Corinthians 4:3-4The Bible calls him our adversary who goes about as a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour. (I Peter 5:8). Satan is also called the prince and power of the air. (Read the following Scriptures: St. John 12:31, 14:30, 16:11 and Ephesians 2:2.) Satan tried to stop the ministry of Jesus Christ in the wilderness by offering Jesus all the kingdoms of this world. (Read St. Matthew, Chapter 4.) Jesus used the word of God against Satan, continually telling him it is written...An exorcist, as one who drives out evil spirits, must do everything according to God's word. He cannot go beyond the authority that God has given him. No one can cast Satan and his demons "back to the pit." His time is not yet and he knows it. Let us refer to St. Matthew 8:29.We must learn to rightly divide God's word because the demons know their rights. No one can take rights away from the devil that God has permitted him to have. Even Jesus could not torment the demons before their time by casting them back to the pit. The Word of God must be fulfilled. Again, their time is not yet. But the time will come.Knowledge according to the Word of God gives you power. Ask yourself, what does God say about it. When Christ came, he came to invade the kingdom of Satan. He also called unto Him his twelve disciples, and later seventy disciples and gave them power. He sent them out two by two and they invaded the kingdom of Satan. This is the ministry of Jesus Christ. (Read St. Matthew, Chapter 10 and also St. Luke, Chapter 10.) This is what demonology and the work of an exorcist are all about. Christ committed this work to the church. The ministry of Jesus Christ, to this day, has not changed. Ministries have changed, but the ministry of Jesus Christ has not. Neither has God's Word changed.When an individual receives the baptism of the Holy Spirit, he is snatched away from Satan's kingdom. The whole of heaven rejoices when a sinner repents. But this does not stop Satan from trying to snatch that soul back. If there were no deliverance ministers and if everyone was fighting against demonology, just imagine the state that churches would be in. If I, and other deliverance ministers, do not invade the kingdom of Satan, many souls will be lost to suicide, homosexuality, depression, lust, fear, witchcraft and thousands of other demonic spirits.Dealing as an exorcist, one must first have the anointing and be exercising wisdom and knowledge. Every deliver¬ance minister should be able to operate in the gift of Discernment according to I Corinthians, Chapter 12. To "discern" means to be able to tell the difference between the flesh (person-ality of the person) and the spirit; what is of God and what is of the devil. Demons can take over the personality of a person and manifest themselves in his speech and actions. If we cannot discern, we will be talking to and sometimes arguing with demons and not know it. We must also discern what is of God. Sometimes the Holy Spirit is working through a person and because we do not discern it to be so, we attribute the works of the Holy Ghost to the devil. However, everything is not God and everything is not a demon. Sometimes it is just the flesh. (Read Romans Chapter 7.) We must discern the difference.The original Apostles have gone from the scene, but we are continuing their works. Remember Jesus said in St. John 14:12, "Verily, verily I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father."

Book Synopsis Evil, Spirits, and Possession by : David L Bradnick
Download or read book Evil, Spirits, and Possession written by David L Bradnick and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2017-08-28 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Evil, Spirits, and Possession: An Emergentist Theology of the Demonic David Bradnick develops a multidisciplinary view of the demonic, using biblical-theological, social-scientific, and philosophical-scientific perspectives. Building upon the work of Pentecostal theologian Amos Yong, this book argues for a theology informed by emergence theory, whereby the demonic arises from evolutionary processes and exerts downward causal influence upon its constituent substrates. Consequently, evil does not result from conscious diabolic beings; rather it manifests as non-personal emergent forces that influence humans to initiate and execute nefarious activities. Emergentism provides an alternative to contemporary views, which tend to minimize or reject the reality of the demonic, and it retains the demonic as a viable theological category in the twenty-first century.

Book Synopsis Demons of the Modern World by : Malcolm Mcgrath
Download or read book Demons of the Modern World written by Malcolm Mcgrath and published by Prometheus Books. This book was released on 2010-10-05 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ...probably the first thorough review of modern demonology...superb. Recommended... - Library Journal...a terrifically contextualized debunking that is sure to generate debate among the faithful. - Publishers Weekly...a fascinating book on the psychology of modern Western culture. - Science & Spirit MagazineThis fascinating discussion of modern demonology focuses on our ability to differentiate the physical world, with its mechanical laws, from the inherently less predictable psychological realm of thoughts and beliefs. McGrath points out that this ability was a hard-won historical development, and today must be learned in childhood through education. Because of this historical background and our rich fantasy life in childhood, each of us unconsciously suspects, or fears, that supernatural forces may break through the borders of our everyday commonsense order at any time. Indeed, at times of personal stress or societal crisis, the modern boundaries between fantasy and reality begin to slip, and then a magical world of demons and other phantasms can come flooding back into our disenchanted reality.Through this innovative thesis McGrath goes a long way toward explaining both our fascination with fantasy entertainment, such as horror stories and films, and bizarre crazes such as witch-hunts, Satanism scares, and even claims of alien abduction. Despite our demystified culture the lure of childhood's magic kingdom with its monstrous shadow realm remains strong.Malcolm McGrath (Toronto, Ontario, Canada) is a doctoral candidate in political philosophy at Oxford University.
