## Resource

Before the world was made, there was a war. Dan McCarthy comes into the basement to trace it back to its source, the moment pride welled up in the highest angel, and he reached for the throne of God. The author of Satan's War Against God argues that most Christians have the enemy all wrong. We shrink him down to a tempter and an accuser, when Scripture describes a full rebellion, a mutiny that has never stopped and now runs as an organized kingdom of darkness carving up the territories of the earth.Dan lays out the enemy's real agenda, why humanity enraged Satan before we ever drew a breath, and how the powers and principalities took their thrones after Babel. Then he gets practical. He explains why the church is not a fan club but an army, why our bond with Jesus is fealty to a warrior king rather than friendship with a buddy, and what it actually means to take back territory. It starts before time, and it lands right in the middle of the war you are standing in today. https://ruffgreens.com - Get a free Jumpstart Trial bag with discount code BLURRY at checkout.
