The dark ages saw Western Europe deteriorate
culturally and economically and the Roman Catholic Church become the
preeminent state religion. This message is a historical fact finding
mission that will give you insight as to why Satan has so much power
and why he was able to build up an apostate church. The Bible says
that God is proving His righteousness through the creation of
mankind because He was accused by Lucifer of being unfair. Satan
seduced one third of the angels to rebel against God and there was a
great war that spanned the entire universe. In the trial that
followed their defeat, they were sentenced to the Lake of Fire.
Lucifer appealed the verdict and accused God of being unrighteous
which lead to the creation of mankind. God has been challenged by
the Devil and the book of Romans says that He is proving His
righteousness through humanity. The Church's main weakness comes
from the fact that it is made up of redeemed sinners who can still
be tempted by the Devil but the Holy Spirit is in charge of
ministering to believers in Christ and together we can defeat
Satan's plans. It is therefore crucial to walk with God as the end
times draw near. |
