Summary

Angels. Demons. Spiritual Warfare. The Holy Spirit. Worship. Prayer. All of these things have something in common: they all have supernatural aspects in the Kingdom of God. Join us in this brand new series as we learn more about these things and uncover the supernatural.We live in a culture obsessed with superheroes and ancient aliens. Why is this? Because we know that there is another realm and supernatural realities. Listen to this sermon from Lee Cummings on how we can allow the Bible to instruct us on our supernatural worldview.Focus ScripturesJob 38:4-7“Where were you when I laid the foundation of the earth? Tell me, if you have understanding. Who determined its measurements—surely you know! Or who stretched the line upon it? On what were its bases sunk, or who laid its cornerstone, when the morning stars sang together and all the sons of God shouted for joy?”Ephesians 6:10-13“Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might. Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil. For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places. Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand firm.”Sermon HighlightsWhat does the Bible say about Angels and Demons?God has two families: one in heaven (divine council), one on earth – humanityAt creation, two groups were present:Morning stars = AngelsSons of God = divine council members that rule with GodDemons are fallen, disembodied spirit beings, in rebellion against God and His rightful ruleDemons are fallen angels that are under the leadership of the fallen cherubim, the devilThe devil and demons are subject to the authority of Christ and will one day be cast into the Lake of Fire foreverThe battle is realWe must recognize that we live in the middle of a battle zone - a spiritual battlefieldWe must train and become familiar with our armor and weapons in the spiritWe must know and prepare ourselves for the strategies and the tactics of the enemyYou were made to win the fight and do great exploits
