M16 Ministries Foundation of Spiritual Warfare Series starts in the first 11 chapters of Genesis.
When examining these scriptures in Genesis, the topic of spiritual warfare rarely comes into
discussion. Most of the Western Church is aware of the fall of man in Genesis 3. But are not aware
there were two other falls involving both man and spirits in the book of Genesis. The Apostles
Peter, Paul, and the author of Jude spoke of these incidences in their works. But seldom do we hear
about these incidents in sermons or modern spiritual warfare books. Understanding these human
spiritual rebellions through the context of Second Temple Hebrews and the early Church unveils a
story of Christ and His works that is not preached in the Western Church today. What did the early
Christians believe in the origin of demons? Who were the prisoners Peter was referring to when
Jesus was preaching to the captives in Sheol? Who were the authorities in chains in Colossians? What
are regional spirits, and how did they get their territory? Learn what the early Church believed in
their context of spiritual warfare and how it differs from the Modern Church's core beliefs.
