"So that Satan will not outsmart us, as
we are familiar with his schemes."
2 Corinthians 2:11 NLT
Those who are familiar with my story of forgiveness…
we are familiar with his schemes."
2 Corinthians 2:11 NLT
Those who are familiar with my story of forgiveness…
...redemption, and hope know that in addition to proclaiming the goodness of God and His willingness to forgive even the worst of offenders, my secondary message is that of a cautionary tale regarding subjects such as the occult, and a fascination with the devil and demons.
So in regard to the devil and his co-workers, I believe it's necessary to remind my fellow disciples of Christ, and the public as a whole, of the fact that the holy Bible treats the subject of Satan as a serious matter. As the Scripture I quoted at the start of this entry indicates, we are responsible to become familiar with the devil's schemes and tactics so that we will not be deceived by him, and thus suffer harm.
Therefore, if I could recommend two publications which I believe necessary and beneficial to read and own, so as to better understand the workings of Satan and how the demonic realm operates, they are:
Biblical Demonology

*This book was first published in the 1600s and
has been a classic work that remains well-read.
