“There are two equal and opposite errors into which our race can fall about devils. One is to disbelieve in their existence. The other is to believe, and to feel an unhealthy interest in them. They are equally pleased by both….” -C.S. Lewis, The Screwtape Letters

Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.

-Ephesians 6:10-12, NRSV

-Ephesians 6:10-12, NRSV

“The Commonest question I get asked is whether I believe in the Devil. Now, if by ‘the Devil’ you mean a power opposite of God and, like God, self-existent from all eternity the answer is certainly No. There is no uncreated being except God. God has no opposite….”

“….No being could attain a ‘perfect badness’ opposite to the perfect goodness of God; for when you have taken away every kind of good thing (intelligence, will, memory, anger, and existence itself) there would be none of him left.

  The proper question is whether I believe in devils. I do. That is to say, I believe in angels….”

“…. and I believe that some of these, by the abuse of their free will, have become enemies to God and, as a corollary, to us. These we may call devils. They do not differ in nature from good angels, but their nature is depraved. Devil is the opposite of angel only as Bad Man is the opposite of Good Man. Satan, the leader or dictator of devils, is the opposite, not of God, but of Michael.”

  (God) has qualified you to share in the inheritance of his holy people in the kingdom of light.  For he has rescued us from the dominion of darkness and brought us into the kingdom of the Son he loves,   in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins….

  ….He forgave us all our sins, having canceled the charge of our legal indebtedness, which stood against us and condemned us; he has taken it away, nailing it to the cross. And having disarmed the powers and authorities, he made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them by the cross.

-Colossians 1:12-14, 2: 14-15 NRSV
