The truth about demons is far stranger--and even more fascinating--than what's commonly believed.
Are demons real? Are they red creatures with goatees holding pitchforks and sitting on people's shoulders while whispering bad things? Did a third of the angels really rebel with Satan? Are demons and principalities and powers just terms for the same entities, or are they different members of the kingdom of darkness? Is the world a chaotic mess because of what happened in Eden, or is there more to the story of evil?
What people believed about evil spiritual forces in ancient biblical times is often very different than what people have been led to believe about them today. And this ancient worldview is missing from most attempts to treat the topic.
In Demons, Michael Heiser debunks popular presuppositions about the very real powers of darkness. Rather than traditions, stories, speculations, or myths, Demons is grounded in what ancient people of both the Old and New Testament eras believed about evil spiritual forces and in what the Bible actually says. You'll come away with a sound, biblical understanding of demons, supernatural rebellion, evil spirits, and spiritual warfare.

The 1st Book of Enoch, the Ethiopic Book of Enoch, or 1 Enoch is more known as simply the Book of Enoch. Although this book is considered apocryphal for the Western canon, it is contained in the Ethiopic Bible. It was considered sacred by some important first followers of Christ but it was left out of the Bible and disappeared for centuries until it was rediscovered in 1773 in Ethiopic. This manuscript was first translated into English in the 1820s and into German in the 1830s. According to most scholars, part of it was written in third century BCE and part of it in the first century CE (the part related to the Son of Man). Although the oldest complete copies of 1 Enoch are K-9 or Kebran 9, dated late fourteenth early fifteenth century and Ethiopian Monastic Microfilm Library (EMML 2080) of the fifteenth or fourteenth century, fragments found in Qumram in the 1950s are more than 2000 years old. Other old important manuscripts are Abbadianus 55 (possibly fifteenth century) and British Museum Orient 485 (first half of the sixteenth century).
The 2nd Book of Enoch, the Slavonic Enoch, or 2 Enoch, is another apocryphal book, found complete only in Old Slavonic manuscripts, and it was once present in the Old Slavonic Bible. It's usually dated to the first century CE although Matthew Black in The Oxford Guide to People & Places of the Bible state that there is no manuscript earlier than the fourteenth century BE.
The 3rd Book of Enoch, the Hebrew Enoch, or 3 Enoch, is a Rabbinic text originally written in Hebrew usually dated to the fifth century CE. Some experts believe it was written by Rabbi Ishmael (second century CE), familiar with both 1 Enoch and 2 Enoch.
The Book of Giants contains a narrative that involves the antediluvian giant offspring originally known from both the Genesis and the Book of Enoch. The Book of Giants resembles particularly 1 Enoch: The First Book of Enoch.
In 2018, Michelle King encountered a profound spiritual event that transformed her life, revealing the very real world of spiritual warfare. Seeking help, she turned to her childhood pastor, her husband, family, friends, and neighbors, but no one truly understood what she was going through. Instead, she faced further torment from misguided ministers whose actions were to expose her and broadcast her videos of agonized deliverance to millions, only amplifying her suffering. It was only when she embraced the divine power and authority over the enemy Jesus Christ had already given her that she experienced true deliverance. Having walked her road to Damascus, Michelle discovered a powerful truth - the strength to overcome darkness was within her all along, the anointing of the Holy Spirit.
Now, Michelle has dedicated her life to freeing others from oppression. Through her prayers, the laying on of hands, and the use of anointed oil, she has ministered healing and deliverance to hundreds of thousands from spiritual bondage. This book is her remarkable story of faith and resilience, paired with a collection of her powerful deliverance prayers, offering hope and healing to those in need.
The remarkable truth about angels, the agents of Heaven, unveiled through Scripture--from the New York Times best-selling author of Everything You Need
Outstanding As one would expect from David Jeremiah, this book reflects a theologian's concern, a pastor's heart, and a Biblicist's accuracy.--Dr. Bruce Wilkinson

In The Shinar Directive, we journeyed down the Luciferian rabbit hole to discover the matrix of darkness that has engulfed our planet. It would seem that esoteric societies have nearly fulfilled Nimrods dark directive. However, the Almighty will not allow the enemy to bring his A team for the final showdown without responding with His own. God is raising up people around the world that are shaking off their techno-sorcery induced, spiritual slumber and are answering Heavens call. There is an end-time empowerment coming for Gods Remnant His Sheeriyth. Hell may have its directive, but Heaven has its imperative! The Sheeriyth Imperative is a tactical manual for Gods Remnant in the Last Days. In this vital book, you will discover a deeper look into the fallen immortals that now labor for the Kingdom of Darkness, how the unification of Superstring Theory and the Bible can play an essential role in our understanding of end-time spiritual warfare, the reality of multi-dimensional seed, what really happened when Lucifer fell and the force he created to fuel his kingdom. Learn that the Watcher invasion of Genesis 6 involved much more than just a breeding program, how Nimrod aligned himself with immortals in the Second Heaven to empower his hellish plans and how Mystery Babylon is doing the same in our day! The reader will gain a better understanding of what Lucifer was really seeking to gain in the fall of humanity, how the Nazi/Vril agenda is still being carried out by the clueless masses around the world today, how our modernized theologies have rendered the modern Christian weaponless and naked on the end-time spiritual battlefield, and how Heaven is empowering the Remnant to destroy every stronghold and to become a force that can raze hell and bring the King
This Deadly Ancient Spirit Has Been Tolerated, Accepted, and Now, Celebrated.
It Must Be Exposed and Expelled!
Is it possible that the strongholds you are dealing with in your life, city, and nation are the result of an ancient demonic entity intent on releasing absolute chaos and destruction? This insidious spirit has been embraced by culture and, in many instances, accepted by religion--including many expressions of Christianity.
Though this spirit takes on many names--Lilith, Ishtar, Jezebel, Cybele, Mami Wata, Santa Muerte, goddess Isis--it can be traced back to the Queen of Heaven.
The late C. Peter Wagner, Rebecca Greenwood's mentor, commissioned her to take his extensive spiritual warfare studies on the Queen of Heaven to the next level--a revelatory teaching that both exposes this ancient demonic entity and empowers believers to overcome its everyday influence. Dr. Wagner recognized Rebecca's unique anointing to address this topic and help believers demolish ancient strongholds that permeate our society and shut every demonic doorway over their lives.
In Dethroning the Queen of Heaven, Rebecca teaches you how to:
Discover how to shut the spiritual portals, close the ancient gateways, and forever cancel this demon's malicious agenda to destroy your life and wreak havoc in your nation!
Yes, angels are real. They are not the product of your imagination. An in-depth study on angels and the heavenly host, Billy Graham walks you through how the angelic armies work like an organization in God's Kingdom, how they differ from man, Lucifer and fall, and much more.
Interest in angels and the supernatural aspects of God's Kingdom is more heightened than ever.

Angels has sold more than 3 million copies. Dr. Graham's knowledge and perspective will make you aware of the angelic beings that are real and who associate with God Himself, administering His works and plans in our lives.
Lucifer: Princeps is a seminal study on the origins of the Lucifer mythos, the first in a two volume work, the companion volume Praxis being an exposition of ritual actions.
The fall of Lucifer, and that of the rebel angels who descended upon the daughters of men, comprise the foundation myth of the Western occult tradition. Princeps is a study of origins, a portrait of the first ancestor of witchcraft and magic. In tracing the genealogy of our patron and prince, the principles that underlie the ritual forms that have come down to us, through the grimoires and folk practices, are elucidated.
The study draws on the extensive literature of history, religion and archaeology, engaging with the vital discoveries and advances of recent scholarship. A concomitant exegesis of the core texts conjures the terrain and koiné of the Ancient Near East, the cradle cultures and language of his nascence. Of critical importance are the effaced cultures and cults that lie behind the Old Testament polemics, viz. those of Assyria, Ugarit and Canaan, as well as Sumeria, Egypt and Greece; they provide the context that give meaning to what would otherwise be an isolated brooding figure, one who makes no sense without being encountered in the landscape.
Intended to be the definitive text on Lucifer for the witch, magician and student of the grimoires, Princeps spans wingtip to wingtip from the original flood myth and legends of divine teachers to the Church Fathers, notably Augustine, Origen and Tertullian. The tales of the Garden of Eden, the Nephilim, of the fall of Helel ben Sahar and the Prince of Tyre, the nature of Azazel, and the creation of the Satan are drawn beneath the shadow of these wings into a narrative that binds Genesis and Revelation via the Enochian tradition. The story of the Serpent in the Garden and that of Lucifer are revealed to be a singular myth whose true significance had been lost and can now be restored.
