Klappentext

What should Christians believe about angels and demons? Many within our modern culture simply dismiss the existence of a spiritual realm and spiritual beings. Others may spend excessive attention on these matters, contriving speculative theories from a variety of religions or popular folklore. The Ultimate Guide to Angels and Demons provides biblical guidance on this topic and addresses questions like: What kind of beings are angels and demons? Where did they come from? What do they do? And how do these spiritual realities affect us? Topics include:

• The Creation of Angels
• The Angelic Fall
• Angels and Demons in the Old Testament
• Angels and Demons in the New Testament
• Angels and Demons in the History of Christian Doctrine
• The Nature of Angels
• The Activities of the Angels
• The Activities of the Demons
• Angelology in Dogmatic Perspective
• Contemporary Approaches to Angelology
• Angels and Demons in Art and Popular Culture
• Spiritual Warfare The Ultimate Guide to Angels and Demons looks to the Christian Scriptures along with learning from Christian theologians from the past to avoid denying the reality of angels and demons while also keeping what we believe about these spiritual realities in biblical perspective.
