September 11 and October 7 - these dates have some things in common. Two different peace-loving democracies learned a hard lesson on those dates - that you cannot underestimate the power and evil of your enemies.
Christians need to learn this lesson as well, but we should avoid learning it the hard way. In this installment of our Foundations of Our Faith series, we are going to be looking at the doctrine of Satan. He is indeed our enemy and he is a very powerful one at that. As with most doctrines, there are people at two extremes: one extreme that says Satan is just the personification of evil, not a real being at all, and on the other extreme are those who promote dualism, the idea that Satan is an equal opponent to God. I trust that this message will provide you with a clear biblical understanding of who and what our opponent is, where he came from, and why he does what he does. I also desire that you will grow in your understanding of the importance and power of the Gospel.
