Tony Evans Speaks Out on Spiritual Warfare
Overview
Whether we know it or not, we are at war. But the battle is a spiritual one. Tony Evans explains: “Spiritual warfare is that conflict being waged in the invisible, spiritual realm that is being manifested in the visible, physical realm.” Perhaps you or someone you know has become an emotional, a marital, or a moral casualty of spiritual warfare. If so, let Tony Evans offer hope with his use of the Sword of the Spirit, the Word of God.
In this booklet, he points out:
- People are not the real enemy.
- Satan is a limited being.
- Satan’s power will never be a match for God’s.
- Our victory is found in dependence on God.
- Satan is a defeated foe—the Cross was his death blow.
- Our authority is in Christ.
- Christ has provided all that we need.
- The Word of God shows us our victory.

Clarity. Conscience. Convicting. These three words summarize my experience with Tony Evans. He never fails to speak with clarity to my conscience—convicting of both God’s love and my response.
