Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Oct 17, 2025

Everyone seems to know the unseen spiritual world is real, and interacts with ours. How can we be safe from harmful spirits? And how we can fight for Jesus, against Satan, in this world?

We live in an age where there is great interest in the unseen spiritual world. There are many TV shows and movies that have to do with battles between humans, and evil spirits. And my guess is that the reason we have so many, and they are so popular, is that we as a society recognize that there ...read more
