The Bondage Breaker, written by Neil T. Anderson, speaks of the spiritual bondage and demonic forces that control the human mind.
How are we living in Christ? The kingdom of darkness is real in some persons’ life rather than the presence of God. Many Christians allow their minds to be filled with confusion in their daily walk with Christ that their lives become unfulfilling and unproductive. They cannot concentrate on spiritual things such as praying; reading the Bible or Christian books for long, as their minds begin to think of other things they can be doing. These Christians may be carnal or spiritually immature, when serving the Lord, they use their short comings as an excuse. “And I brethren, could not speak unto you as into spiritual, but as unto carnal, even as unto babes in Christ. I have fed you with milk, and not with meat; for hitherto ye were not able to bear it, neither yet now are ye able. For ye are yet carnal: for whereas there is among you envying, and strife, and divisions, are ye not carnal, and walk as men? 1 Corinthians 3:1-3
The powers and forces of Satan are still evident in the world today. From the beginning of time, Satan seduced Adam and Eve into believing that they would become as gods. Adam was instructed by God not to eat of the tree of knowledge of good and evil, …show more content…

What they do not realize is, that they are fighting a spiritual bondage, having to resist the power and authority of Satan to serve God with their whole heart. Satan’s aim is to keep you away from living a life for Christ. Paul said in Ephesians 6:10-11: “Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.” We have to take an active role when we clothe ourselves in the armour of God and then He will give us

He was an actual slave who learned to read and write, and he wrote this book about his journey as a slave and the hardships he endured. Douglass says in his book that “One cannot easily forget to love freedom…” (345) which displays the feelings that he had toward his slavery. From Uncle Tom’s Cabin was written by Harriet Beecher Stowe,

    How can a society work properly if all men are equal and all men are free? It’s that very question that I assume the New World settlers asked themselves every single day. There must have been one enormously persuasive leader in charge if not even a few men could think somewhat differently than him. Honestly, though, how else would we have come to learn what’s right from what’s wrong if our ancestors weren’t inhuman and didn’t light a path for us by lacking in culture what we have today?

    Christianity has its challenges. It places demands on us that set us apart from the rest of our world. The bible calls us a peculiar people, who navigate the challenge of living IN the world, without being OF the world. When we say ‘no’ to temptations that are enjoyed by the masses, we are labeled as self-righteous snobs, religious weirdoes, or worse. But we persevere, and we press toward that invisible line the Apostle Paul drew in the sands of time…for the high calling in Christ Jesus.

    When a person hears Satan, a streak of fear, and the thought of evil, arises. People fear Satan, and think of him as evil, but in John Milton’s Paradise Lost, he displays a thought of the Father being the evil being, and Satan a tragic hero. In Paradise Lost, Book 1 and 2, the minor areas where God is shown, He is displayed as hypocritical. He contradicts himself by creating the humans to be of free will, but when Satan displays free will, he is shunned. Satan can be described in many terms, and by many people, but all can be disputed.

  • Satanianism: The Ethical And Moral Codes Of Satanism

    Typically, when someone thinks of religion, they think about worship of a higher power, compassion for all living things, and a general love of the world. Satanism, while a religion, does not fit these conventions. The faith holds no belief in a higher power, is rather selfish in nature, and paints a bleak picture of the world and its workings. In addition, Satanism has controversy riddled history dating back to the seventeenth century. Due to the religion’s unconventional nature, it is often looked down upon and its principles and values are ridiculed. To better understand a faith like Satanism, it helps to look at it alongside a more familiar and commonly understood religion like Christianity.

  • Choice Essay On Eve's Choice: No Freedom

    1002 Words  | 3 Pages

    Since dawn, Satan, now in the form of a snake, has been searching for the two people that represented the future of all mankind. Satan is looking for mankind to destroy them just for revenge, to get back at God. Satan is full of envy and thirst for revenge. Obviously he would want to find the weaker person first, Eve. Satan would like to find Eve by herself, but he didn 't think it was likely. But Satan actually found Eve all by herself working. Satan in the form of a snake approached Eve and complimented her. Of course Eve was amazed and flattered. She was not amazed because of the compliments he gave her. Eve was amazed on how the snake (Satan) was talking. She thought animals couldn 't talk but Satan told her he how he was dumb as the other animals but as he ate the apple from the tree he became smarter. He was able to think high thoughts, and speak. Satan was slick and Eve was naive. When Satan was telling her about this tree she thought he was talking about a random tree, not being the tree of knowledge. Satan took her to the “tree”. Eve told him she could have saved him the trouble. She told Satan “But of this Tree we may not taste nor touch; God so commanded” (Book IX, lines 651-652). Eve tried to be smart and tell him how they couldn 't eat from the tree of knowledge because God told them not to. She knew it was trouble if she did. She had no freedom to eat from the tree nor touch

    In scripture, we can see that more than once Jesus cast out demons from people and had the power to shut their mouths. In Luke 11:14 one can see the power of Christ over demons, “And He was casting out a demon, and it was mute; when the demon had gone out, the mute man spoke; and the crowds were amazed.” Another place in scripture that we can see where evil gets its power from is in the book of Job. Satan had to ask for God’s permission to torment Job. We know by this that any authority Satan has, has been given to him by God. God has given him the authority over worldly things as mentioned in John 14:20; however, it is important to remember that Satan cannot do anything that is outside of God’s will and purposes. In 1 John 4:4 we are reminded that as long as we have Christ in us, we ...

His tyrannical efforts are futile in the end of this “eternal war” (Rosenblatt 215). Instead of forever ruining the species made in the image of God, Satan’s reign of evil left him, in turn, in a miserable defeat, “Chained on the burning lake (Milton 311 & Auslin

    Ask anyone to draw Satan and you 'll get a red snake-like figure with horns and a pitchfork. Satan, as introduced in the Hebrew bible is an unworthy adversary of God. His longing to be like God is quickly recognized and dealt with. God banishes him from Heaven and sends him to Hell. That 's the last we see of him until he talks with God about his faithful servant Job. In each interaction we see Satan in, we get only a glimpse of who he really is. Satan 's motive is not developed and we assume he does evil simply because he is evil
