Supernatural
by Michael Heiser | Book Summary
Author: Michael Heiser
|
Supernatural is a condensed version of The Unseen Realm. Both books seek to present biblical truth about the supernatural, unseen world. This includes topics such as God, the Trinity, the angel of the LORD, angels and demons, the gods of pagan nations, principalities and powers, and even Satan himself. Many pastors and theologians are embarrassed by the biblical teaching about the supernatural world. These ideas do not fit nicely or neatly into a modern, scientific worldview. Heiser wants believers to see the world like the ancient Hebrews saw the world, including things seen and unseen. |
