Victory over the Devil
Overview
The devil and demons are largely ignored in modern Christianity because they are quietly assumed to exist instead of firmly resisted. Victory over the Devil affirms their existence and gives certain hope of applied victory both in the individual and in the church itself. This book takes a fresh look at what the Bible says about the devil, demons, angels, and the believer’s authority in Jesus Christ. Jack Taylor equips readers with the spiritual weapons to combat and defeat the devil. This book will explain the unexplainable from Scripture and prepare you to confront spiritual enemies and cooperate with spiritual allies.

“In Ephesians 1:2 we are informed that Christ was elevated far above ‘all principalities and powers, mights and dominions, and every name that is named,’ In Ephesians 3:10 we read, ‘To intent that now unto the principalities and powers in heavenly places might be made known by the church the manifold wisdom of God.’ In Colossians 2:10, ‘We discover that Christ is the head of all principality and power. (That is, He is superior to them.) In Colossians 2:15 is the glad news that ‘Having spoiled [stripped) principalities and powers he made a show of them openly, triumphing over them in it.’” (Page 24)
“ THE PRINCE OF THIS WORLD or THE GOD OF THIS WORLD tells us that he has rights in the world as well” (Pages 21–22)

Most of the information I was already acquainted with. Concerning some facts, I do not know if it is entirely theologically correct. Still, this work is a good reminder that we are in a spiritual war and have the Victory through Jesus Christ our Lord. If you have a good knowledge about this topic you can skip this book, otherwise it is a good introduction.
