"Satan" by Lewis Sperry Chafer is a theological treatise written in the early 20th century. The book delves into the existence, characteristics, and influence of Satan and the broader implications of his actions throughout biblical history. Chafer aims to present a comprehensive understanding of Satan's role, concluding with the certainty of his ultimate defeat. The opening portion of "Satan" introduces the author’s intention to explore the biblical revelations surrounding the figure of Satan. It begins with insights from the foreword by Dr. C. I. Scofield, emphasizing the significance of understanding Satan as a powerful presence in the world and the need for believers to be aware of his tactics. In the introduction, Chafer sets the stage by discussing the widespread disbelief in Satan’s existence and the consequences of such skepticism. He aims to provide a scriptural examination of Satan’s origin, his initial perfection, his rebellion against God, and the consequent nature of his ongoing battle against divine authority, primarily through manipulation and temptation of humanity. This foundational exploration establishes the framework for the detailed analysis of Satan's career outlined in the subsequent chapters. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
