Study Notes
Satan's Kingdom and Deception
- Satan is not self-destructive, and his kingdom is not divided against itself; instead, he uses deceit and strategy to further his own kingdom.
- Satan's power is not broken when he casts out demons; rather, he is using deception to make it appear as if he is breaking his own power.
- The text suggests that Satan's strategy is to deceive people into thinking they have gained something they have not gained, and this is validated in Matthew 7, where Jesus says, "You cast out demons in my name. I never knew you."
The Principle of Satanic Power
- The principle of satanic power is that Satan's power is not broken when he casts out demons; instead, it is furthered through deception.
- This principle is applied in Matthew 12:25-26, where Jesus says, "Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation; and every city or house divided against itself shall not stand."
- The text suggests that Satan's power is not broken when he casts out demons, but rather, he is using deception to make it appear as if he is breaking his own power.
Spiritual Warfare and Missions
- There is an increasing attention being given to spiritual warfare, particularly in missions.
- Missionary work in Africa is seen as a classic example of successful missions, while Islamic countries are seen as a classic example of areas where missions are less successful.
- The reason for this difference is attributed to demonic activity or spiritual warfare, which prevents people from listening to the gospel.
- The article "Overcoming the World Missions Crisis" by John Hart has an excellent chapter on demonology and the mission field.

Definition of Spiritual Warfare
- Spiritual warfare is defined as the ongoing hostility of Satan against God and His people, using every means to defeat God and His plan for time and eternity.
