This careful study provides a strong biblical basis for spiritual warfare that aims to deliver persons from bondage to evil forces, or beings. It shows the close relationship between the portrayal of Christ as Reconciler of hostile beings, or powers, in Colossians 1:19-20 and His depiction as Conqueror over them in Colossians 2:13-15. It examines each portrayal exegetically--separately and then jointly. Next, it draws out theological implications for the Church's role in deliverance--cosmically and individually. Deliverance ministry today is grounded fully in the unique work of Jesus Christ. It explores the Greek text closely, although readers need no knowledge of Greek to benefit from the study. Generous documentation, bibliography, and Greek, Scripture, Subject, and Name indexes make it useful to beginning Bible students, as well as scholars.
