I Believe in Satan's Downfall, The Eerdmans Michael Green Collection (EMGC)

Satan is real—on that the Bible is certain—but so is his ultimate defeat. 

High among the list of traditional Christian doctrines that have fallen into disrepute is belief in Satan. Many theologians and laypersons find belief in the devil ridiculous in our enlightened age. Michael Green pushes back against this assumption and offers a biblical account of evil and the certainty of its defeat. He calls Christians to take seriously the spiritual battle in which followers of Christ are necessarily engaged, and to recognize both the strength of the devil and the greater strength of the living God. 

“Satan will be defeated and abolished. Eternity will not be disfigured by the self-seeking, deceit, hatred, and accusations of the Adversary, but God will be all in all and the redeemed will be for ever satisfied with their Lord, who has turned Paradise lost into Paradise regained.”

Michael Green

 Michael Green (1930–2019) was one of the best-known British evangelical theologians and preachers of his generation. A scholar with degrees from the universities of Oxford, Cambridge, and Toronto, Green had a passion for evangelism and a rare talent for communicating complex ideas in easy-to-understand language. In 1996, Archbishop of Canterbury George Carey granted Green a Lambeth degree of Doctor of Divinity. ?He led university missions on six continents, pastored St. Aldate's Church Oxford, and introduced innovative approaches in seminary education. He authored more than seventy books across a range of fields, including evangelism, apologetics, biblical commentary, and academic theology.
