REALITY
The Battle between Good & Evil
Pastor Trevor, October 22, 2023
Key Verses: Eph.6:10-13, 2Cor.10:3-5, 1Peter5:8; 1John1:9
I. Reality of Evil
- evil spiritual forces real or just creative entertainment in humanity
- danger in normalizing evil: spiritually desensitized, numbs the conscience to the good, pure, holy ways of God   
II. Evil Principalities behind the Scenes
- common understanding of warfare being physical (flesh & blood)
- in reality we are warring against dark principalities (spiritual realm) 
III. Impact of Evil from Bad to Worse
- last days: godlessness, biblically sound teachings rejected for demonic teachings, departure of the faith, etc.
- how will the church/Christians respond  
IV. Church at War against Forces of Evil
- repent and realign yourself with God
- be strong in the Lord and His mighty power, full armor of God, take your stand against the devil’s schemes
V. Implication/Application
- In what ways did today’s message challenge you?
-How have you been entertained by evil? What about currently?
-Based on this message, what is the next step of obedience Jesus is asking you to take?
Blessings!
