Let me be as clear as possible: God alone is supreme, and He alone is above every other spiritual power in the universe. When Jesus was asked which was the most important commandment in the Old Testament, He began with these words: "Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is one" (Mark 12:29).

Yes, God is the sovereign spiritual power over all creation—but He isn't the only spiritual power. Before time began, He created the angels—a separate category of spiritual beings. They were never equal with Him, nor will they ever be; their power is limited, and they are strictly under His control. They were created to do His will—including watching over His children. The Bible says, "For he will command his angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways" (Psalm 91:11).

The Bible tells us, however, that some of the angels rebelled against God. They followed one of the highest ranking angels, who came to be called Satan (which means "adversary"). Since that time, Satan has done everything he can to oppose God and put himself in God's place.

Yes, Satan is real; you see his work every day. But listen: Satan is a defeated foe! By His death and resurrection Jesus overcame the devil. Don't be deceived, but make sure you are on the winning side by committing your life to Jesus Christ today.

An internal war between what they know is the right thing to do and the temptation to lie, cheat and steal from other people for their own worldly gain.
to : believe in.No ST.LUCIFER was not turned into SATAN after his rebellion in Heaven . Him and those Angles that followed him were cast out of Heaven and fell unto an island surrounded by a sea of glass and stripped of their powers to await the day of Judgment.
Satan, the devil. Beelzebub,Lucifer and the rest are characters that were taken from other religions to represent different types of evil and are separate entities.according to catholic teachings each one except ST. LUCIFER was assigned as the ruler of the(at least) seven levels of HELL.

Its the battle behind the scenes. Sort of another dimension where the spirits of good and evil battle for the souls of men. By praying you begin to enter the battle. But beware! Do not try this without Jesus. The spirits are not to be taken lightly.

When satan knows that you are saved, he will do everything he can to put obstacles in your way, like, when you have to work on Sunday, and can't get to church like you should..
by having the next door neighbor sunbathing in her skimpy bikini to tempt you into lust..
to make that other driver cut you off so you lose your temper and swear..
what happens then is, your testimony about being a Christian is weakened, and satan wins a little battle..
somebody will say, well, if that's the Christian way, I must be Christian cause I act like that all the time. and satan wins a soul...

It depends on your belief. To me, “spiritual Warfare” is the struggle to understand God and God’ love in relation with your own soul and physical body on this universe. This usually occurs with people who have accepted a religion blindly, and word-by-word, thus any feeling and experiences which raises question, makes them feel guilty and fear of punishment by God, thus undergo spritual struggle.

From my understanding, evil is at work against good. The devil and his army against Jesus and Christians.

IE: Science vs. Christianity
Athiests vs. Christians
Things of the world/temptation vs. purity

And things of the like.

Within a person there is war, to do what is right, or do what feels good.

One side or the other will win, taking a person to God or away from God.
