Has God given his people authority over evil powers that oppress cities and nations? Or have we only been authorized to cast demons out of individuals?A problem came to the forefront in Christian circles in the 1990s. Believers were suffering devastating demonic attack after attempting to assault regional principalities. As a result of these negative and even scary experiences, many concluded that God never gave us authority over these evil powers in the first place.Jonathan Brenneman re-examines that assessment. While drawing from the lessons learned by previous leaders of the spiritual warfare movement, he also challenges many deep-rooted assumptions. He brings to light serious scriptural problems with the position that Christians only have limited authority over Satans power. Rather than dismissing the problem of needless casualties, he offers a re-diagnosis of the cause.Readers are saying this teaching has removed the fear and confusion surrounding the topic of spiritual warfare. It also includes:Modern-day testimonies of overcoming severe demonic attack, and the lessons learnedScriptural and historical examples of a single righteous person displacing a principalityTestimonies of Gods kingdom advancing regionally as Christians confront and trample on principalitiesHow to trample on principalitiesSeveral problems with trying to distinguish between evil spirits in the second heaven and those on earthWhy there are no levels of authority over Satan for Christians, only all authority.How Christians sometimes mentally acknowledge gospel truths but dont act accordinglyHow we leave a gospel position and thus become vulnerable to attack by trying to break the devils powerWhy the devil has no legal rights, and the difference between a legal right and a footholdHow the legal approach to the demonic realm makes us vulnerable to attackHow identificational repentance initiatives, although bringing healing and reconciliation, have been misunderstoodHow fear can make us vulnerable to demonic attackHow to avoid the trap of practicing the presence of demonsWhy a heavy spiritual atmosphere is a lieWhy heavy emphasis on amassing a spiritual army has become unbalanced and falls short of scriptureLone rangers of the BibleWhy we should reconsider warnings about mocking SatanShould we bind territorial spirits?Is our sword any different than the sword of the Lord?What Really Causes Needless Casualties Of War? is practical and encouraging, rooted in both scripture and experience. Stimulating fresh thinking, it leads to a renewed vision for what God is able to do on the earth through Christs body, the church.
