Description: (hide)

Martin Collins, focusing upon the apostle Paul"s assertion that the Son of God was manifested in order to destroy the works of the devil, recounts the historical development of Satan the Devil, formerly a powerful archangel named Lucifer, who enticed one third of the angels to wage war against Almighty God. God"s Son, Jesus Christ, qualified to replace Satan as the ruler of the earth, and will restore order and tranquility at His second coming. In the meantime, God's called out ones are the target of the Great Dragon. Satan and his demons know that their time is short and is determined to destroy as many people as possible, especially the Israel of God. If it were not for God's intervention, the entirety of mankind would perish. Unfortunately, near the close of the age, false teachers have turned Christ's Gospel into empty vain philosophy, making God's people vulnerable to demonic false doctrine. Satan enticed our original parents, placing them into the kingdom of the Devil, separating them and their offspring from God. Satan, who is the father of liars, has deceived the whole world. Everything about the world's culture, science, economic systems, and religion has been polluted and perverted. Satan's sole desire is to destroy all of humanity. During the dreadful Day of the Lord, Satan will marshal all the world's armies around Armageddon in order to fight against the conquering army of Jesus Christ. Satan's lie penetrates into the deepest recesses of our minds where sin originates. Christ has exposed and delivered us from sin's tentacles in the inner mind. Jesus Christ breaks the captor"s heavy chains, delivering His people from demonic influence, proving Himself stronger and more powerful than Satan. As Christ rejected Satan's lie and received resurrection, God's called out ones, by rejecting Satan's lie, will also be resurrected into God's family. If we are members of God's church we are already being transformed into a new work, being translated from the kingdom of darkness into the kingdom of light, completely destroying the works of Satan the Devil.
