Spiritual warfare doesn’t always look the way popular movies portray it. Rather, as pastor Thabiti Anyabwile explains, it is often waged through devious, subversive strategies. The fight is led by demons who use liars disguised as faith teachers to destroy men by getting them to abandon the faith. To combat this, a minister’s duty is to warn their congregations about apostacy and the devil’s schemes, teaching them what—and what not—to believe.
