“To The Death!”

    How do I defeat a demon in battle… as in real combat?

Sincerely,
This Means War

Dear This Means War,

The way that Christians combat the devil and his demons is by godly living and sharing God’s Word with others.  Demons are spiritual creatures that live in the spiritual realm (Lk 11:24), and you can’t fight them in hand-to-hand combat.  However, we are told that if we put on the armor of God, we can fight the spiritual battles that the church needs to fight (Eph 6:11-12).  The armor of God is described as righteousness, truth, preparation of the gospel, faith, salvation, the Bible, and prayer (Eph 6:13-18).  We fight the devil when we live godly lives that make an impact in the world around us.
