Throughout Scripture a common theme appears that is applicable to Paul’s defense of his ministry and pointed teaching of the Corinthians: God uses the broken and weak to demonstrate His power for His glory. Many times we stifle God because of the lies that we accept thinking God cannot use us because of our weakness; in fact, God has already taken your entire person into account and will use you for His purposes and His glory, just as you are!

There are so many lies that permeate our culture and often times they find themselves embedding their claws into our minds. The Apostle Paul reminds us several times that we are not fighting a war against flesh and blood, but against power and principalities....against the lies of this age! We must be able to identify those lies and how to remove them from our lives before we bring harm to ourselves and to our ability to make disciples on a consistent basis.

Today we talk about the development of demonology through the Puritans, which leads us up into colonial North America. We also start off with a little detour into the events that transpired over the weekend when protestors stormed a church service in Minnesota. We discussed the political and social implications of that act and how we as Christians should respond.
