Customer Reviews

this is the seminal book on spiritual warfare--
John A. MacMillan was a missionary of The Christian and Missionary Alliance who served in China and the Philippines. Long an Associate Editor of the Alliance Weekly (Life) and a professor at Nyack College, MacMillan acted on his theology and used the authority of the believer to effect deliverances from demonic power. Essentially, because believers are in Christ and He is seated at the right hand of the Father, all authority is vested in Him, our Saviour and by His indwelling presence we exercise His authority.

The Authority of the Believer

This book was referenced in Ken Hagin's book, "The Believers Authority". While Ken's book is a great read, this book goes into more depth on demonic influences and forces in our lives. Using this book and the Word, you can combat the evil one with the utmost confidence and authority.
The Church has given up a lot of authority to the devil. I have often asked the Lord, "Where is the authority that was given to Ken Hagin, Oral Roberts, Jack Coe, Smith Wigglesworth and the other great men of faith?" I felt the Lord telling me that HE never changes, and the Word has not changed. Man is the one that changes. He also told me that if the church did not do anything about the devil, nothing would be done. Jesus delegated his authority to the church before his ascension to the throne. We have the responsibility to use that authority against the enemy.
If we are to do the works that Jesus said we would do (for example, when was the last time the dead were raised in the church except at noon?), then we need to change some things. This book will help us (the church) do just that. It is time we take authority over the enemy and make our churches a place of deliverance and refuge where EVERYONE can find help in time of need.
Remember that God is not a respecter of persons, AND he is not a man that he can lie, AND he is faithful who has promised. Given these truths, WE need to start doing our part in this thing and using the authority that Jesus purchased for us at Calvary. This book will guide us into doing just that.
