<transcy>Satan Cast Out (Satan, vaincu et chassé)</transcy>

Presentation

The occult, paranormal phenomena and Satan are the subject of a very real resurgence of interest in the present generation. The previous decades considered these things to be largely fables. In reaction to this danger of indifference, our time is running short of becoming obsessed with this area.

Christians do not always emerge unscathed from this general atmosphere, which often leads them to allow demonic manifestations (true or false) and their pseudo-scientific disguises to greatly influence their way of thinking and living. An unhealthy religious teaching about the enemy of souls leads him to forget the testimony of Christ, who called the devil "a liar."

The author therefore gives pride of place to the clear statements of Scripture. In particular, he desires that the Church of Christ today not lose sight of the true position of the devil. He is a fierce and formidable enemy, but he is powerless before God and the Lord Jesus Christ. He who is in Christ overcomes this adversary by his knowledge and faith in the truth.

The author offers the Christian clear and concrete help. He also warns him of the dangers of approaching liberalism or an unhealthy subjectivism bordering on the sensational.
