Spiritual War
Resisting The Spirit Of Rome

by Ken Raggio

One of the rudimentary lessons that every Christian must learn is this:

"We wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth,"

Ephesians 6:12-14.

Every faithful believer will eventually discover that there are many spiritual adversaries to true faith in God.

The true Church must be totally independent of the Prince of Rome.

Don't forget that any ungodly prince exists, by definition, to "steal, kill, and destroy" anything that God might want to save.

In dealing with these opponents of God and truth, we must be as wise as serpents.

No one of us can, at will, overthrow the prince of Rome. He is there in the wisdom and foreknowledge of God, to fill a prophetic purpose.

We do NOT, however, have to be oppressed by that, or any other spirit. We will frequently encounter lower princes that are subordinate to the prince of Rome.

In each case, we have full authority to invoke the name of Jesus, both defensively and offensively.

While we may not fully eradicate the Roman influence from off the earth, until the Prince of peace, Jesus Christ, brings all things in subjection unto Himself, be assured that God will faithfully stand with you every time you rise up against the forces of evil in His Name.

He will underwrite and endorse our attempts to conquer new territory for truth, because Jesus Christ came into the world "that He might destroy the works of the devil" (1 John 3:8).
