The Faith of Demons - What They Believe Doesn't Save You! (Paperback)

Do you have the faith of demons? The Faith of Demons was written to combat counterfeit gospels, false conversions, nominal Christianity, and easy-believism within the evangelical church. It was written for church members, pastors, leaders, teachers, students, the curious, the casual, and the lost. We live in a day when anything and everything goes. So many are confused when it comes to the truth, God's redeeming truth. People cling to not only a false notion of God, but also his salvation. People are dying and going to hell because they are trusting in something other than Christ alone for salvation. These people, however, are religious and go to church. What they believe does not save them. Sadly, they have what the very demons possess-a faith, a belief that falls regrettably short of salvation. What they have is knowledge void of a life-changing, soul-saving, God-glorifying, conversion. Everyone has faith in something; faith is what one believes in. Therefore, demons and even atheists have faith. The Faith of Demons begins by examining the knowledge and experiences of Satan and demons in an effort to reveal the truth that saving faith must differ from what is common to the demonic realm. These fallen angels know a great deal about Scripture, God, Christ, and salvation. Yet, they are and forever will be lost and doomed. True saving faith cannot merely be based on knowledge and facts. Certainly, these are important, but salvation must include repentance and a trusting in Christ Jesus for deliverance from the penalty of sin. After this groundwork is laid, the focus is changed to professing believers. Our attention is turned to self-examination and sin. The idea being that if demons have this knowledge, we must look at what we call salvation and make sure that it isn't the faith of demons. Chapters cover sin and false gospels that give rise to false conversions and assurance. Examples from the Old and New Testaments are highlighted to show that religious people throughout the Bible fell short of salvation. After learning about and confronting falsehoods and counterfeits, the glorious gospel of Jesus Christ is presented. Faith, repentance, Christ, assurance, and the plan of redemption are discussed. Examples from Scripture are presented to show positive attributes that need to be emulated. In the end, it is the grace of God that we need and that changes everything. The Faith of Demons is 430 pages, fully indexed, and incorporates over two hundred quotes from the Puritans, Reformed theologians, and modern pastors and scholars. More importantly, over twenty-five hundred references are made to the Bible. The Faith of Demons is a biblical examination of true versus false faith and conversion and counterfeit gospels. The Faith of Demons, in the end, is about salvation (repenting and trusting in the perfect substitute-Jesus Christ, who took on flesh and bore the wrath of God to redeem and ransom sinners).
