WHY

Everybody has questions about the devil. Most books about him just leave you afraid.

Does the devil run hell? Can a Christian have a demon? What is that thing people keep seeing in the woods? Is there anything in a fortune teller's cards? Did angels really father children in Genesis chapter six? And if God is good and God is almighty, why is any of it permitted at all?

Reverend Thomas Andrufski has pastored churches since 1985. In these pages he answers fourteen questions of that kind - plainly, out of the Word of God, and without a single page written to raise your pulse.

He tells you every time whether he is standing on plain Scripture or only giving you his best judgment. He gives the other side its strongest argument before he answers it. And he refuses both ditches - the man who finds a demon under every rock, and the man who pretends there is no enemy at all.

Along the way he takes up the fall and why it cannot be undone, the ranks and the orders of angels, hell and who actually runs it, the sons of God in Genesis six, the Book of Enoch and what it is worth, the giant in the woods, the lights in the sky, familiar spirits and how the fortune teller's trick actually works, the real problem with modern deliverance ministries, and who is allowed to cast out a devil - and what that actually looks like when it is done honestly.

"I can read about the devil and not fear him." - the author's wife, after reading the manuscript

That is the whole aim of this book. Respect him, because he is a real enemy with real power and real permission. Fear him, no.

He cannot repent. He spent that when he chose. And you still can.
