Satan has been described as THE god OF THIS WORLD (II Cor. 4 vs 4). He is the originator of all evil. Right from Eden, his number one target is man. He has nothing good to offer. His three-pronged programme for man is to STEAL, KILL and DESTROY. Unfortunately, the whole world is under his influence. The Bible tells us in 1 John 5:19 that the “WORLD LIETH IN WICKEDNESS”. This means that the world is under the power of the evil one. Satan gets his job done through evil spirits, otherwise known as DEMONS.Although Satan is not omnipresent, he has so masterfully organized his kingdom of darkness that evil has become as pervasive as the air.Satan tries to replicate the kingdom that God had set out to establish in the beginning. The devil is a copycat. He is not omniscient, neither is he omnipotent. He is a created being and not the CREATOR. He runs a parallel kingdom to that of God. From the twentieth verse of the tenth chapter of the book of Daniel, we learn that every political system has a controlling spirit. The devil is the prince of this world. God’s original plan for man was that man would co-operate with Him to dominate the earth.Unfortunately, the devil deceived man. Right from then, man’s will became united (married) to the will of the Edenic serpent, in opposition to God’s will. Also, it is the perfect will of God that HIS WILL BE DONE ON EARTH AS IT IS IN HEAVEN but the devil fights tooth and nail to stop this, hence, the “conflict of the ages” known as “spiritual warfare”.

The woods near Bryan Stewart’s house have a long history of evil. When he was 14, he became a victim of it. Police found him semiconscious, a large amount of LSD in his system, lying on a path close to the heart of the woods. When he recovered, he could remember nothing about his ordeal except that something had changed him forever.Not long afterward, Bryan tried to kill himself. What makes a 14-year-old boy so depressed he doesn’t want to live? His parents think he has a mental illness; the townspeople just think he’s an evil, drug-crazed thug, and Bryan has no idea what happened. He only knows it all began the night of his ordeal, the night he has blocked out of his mind. After he meets two girls his own age: a beautiful, almost pagan-like, dark-haired girl, and a devoted Christian who constantly challenges him on his own faith, Bryan begins to remember what happened to him when he was 14. Even more frightening than the memories, is the realization that the evil is returning and wants Bryan again. He must choose the correct path, the one that will lead him safely through the dark woods. If he chooses the wrong path, innocent people will die in ways that are unimaginable.

It is the pitching of uncompromising spiritual forces against each other in order to enforce control over creation. In this warfare, there is no neutrality.
