Chapter 9, Part 1 of 2, of our DISCERNMENT series delves into the spiritual realm, focusing on the importance of discernment in recognizing and confronting demonic forces. The speakers discuss the reality of evil, particularly in the context of American society, and the deceptive nature of humanism that downplays the existence of the spiritual realm. They emphasize the need for the church to reclaim its authority in deliverance ministry and to educate believers about the tactics of Satan, including spiritual identity theft. The conversation highlights the critical role of discernment in spiritual warfare and the necessity of understanding one's enemy to effectively combat evil.
