The Dark Ministry
of Evil Angels
[ Back ] [ Up ] [ Next ]
Against whom do
we wrestle?
"For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against
principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this
world, against spiritual wickedness in high places." Ephesians 6:12
When the evil
angels first sinned, where were they cast and why?
"For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast them
down to hell, and
delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved unto
judgment." 2 Peter 2:4.
What is Satan
himself called?
"The god of this world." 2 Corinthians 4:4. "The prince
of this world." John 14:30 "The prince of the power of the
air." Ephesians 2:2.
What is the
chief work of the devil and his angels? How earnestly does he carryon this work?
"And he [Jesus] was there in the wilderness forty days, tempted of
Satan." Mark 1:13. "Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary
the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may
devour." 1 Peter 5:8. (See Revelation 12:9, 12; 16:14.)
What are we
warned not to do?
"Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath: neither
give place to the devil." Ephesians 4:26, 27.
As we near the
close of human probation and the end of time, why may we expect an increase in
demon manifestations?
"Woe to the inhabitants of the earth and of the sea! for the devil
is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a
short time." Revelation 12:12.
What warning has
been especially given to us who live in these last days?
"Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some
shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of
devils." 1 Timothy 4:1.
What will be the
final doom of Satan, his angels, and all the wicked of earth?
"Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye
cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:"
Matthew 25:41 "For, behold, the day cometh, that shall burn as an oven; and
all the proud, yea, and all that do wickedly, shall be stubble: and the day that
cometh shall burn them up, saith the LORD of hosts, that it shall leave them
neither root nor branch." Malachi 4:1
