Living with the Underworld
Description
Evil spirits. Demons. Ghosts. Magic. Satan.
Do those words speak to you of a frightening spiritual reality? Or do you regard them as the silly remnants of a more superstitious age?
The modern world seems to lurch between these two attitudes. At one level, we have never been more sceptical about ghosts and demons and Satan. And yet there are many, even in Western society, who are deeply fearful of evil spiritual forces. Christians also often swing between paying the devil too much attention, and not enough.
In this exciting and very readable book, Peter Bolt takes us on a breath-taking journey through the spiritual underworld and shows how Jesus came to reveal its true nature, neutralise its power, and liberate us to live without fear.
