Title: What Enemy?
“For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.”Ephesians 6:12
“If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.” Sun Tzu, The Art of War
Tragically, a recent Barna survey revealed that nearly six out of ten American Christians do not believe that Satan is a real being. So what does that say about the chances of winning the war against evil? It says we are going to lose. How can you win a war when you don’t acknowledge the existence of your enemy? You can’t. Satan is real and he wants to destroy your earthly and eternal life. We are at war. We have an enemy.
Real Men Know and fight against the evil enemy.
