In these, they give some account of their lives, embodying particulars not found in the scriptural account, and build thereupon various moral precepts for the guidance of their descendants. The book partakes also of the nature of an Apocalypse: The patriarchs see in the future their children doing wickedly, stained with the sins of every nation, and thus they foretell the troubles impending on their race.

An important spiritual law was revealed by Jesus in Luke 11:21-22 and Matthew 12:29, “How can one enter into a strongman’s house, and spoil his goods, except he first bind the strongman?

If God names them, they are real, and he has given us dominion over them through the name of Jesus. Strongman's His Name...What's His Game offers a scriptural, balanced, and uplifting approach to present-day spiritual warfare.
