In today’s Revealed by Fire episode, we discuss the 2023 movie Nefarious. We center on the film’s primary topic of spiritual warfare, noting its similarity to C.S. Lewis’s The Screwtape Letters. We also discuss atheism and common spiritual law, the difference between guilt and conviction, the Cross of Christ, and a host of other meaty topics. (Please note this movie is rated R. Before watching, we recommend you listen to the portion of our discussion entitled “Warning about movie and this podcast episode.”)  Visit us at https://truth-speak.org and check out our books in the Resources section: The Lowering Sky and Carter in the Crosshairs. See our growing list of recommended books, movies, and music in the Recommendations section. And check out our Devotional page for the historical fiction series All That You Know: The Unfiltered Jesus of the Bible.  Please consider donating in support of our Kingdom-building efforts. 00:00 Introduction 00:30 Movie overview 01:21 Warning about movie and this podcast episode 07:07 Opening verses 09:20 How the movie industry repressed Nefarious 20:07 Horror movies 25:23 Nefarious, The Screwtape Letters, and demons 36:03 Contested Kingdom-work 41:38 About truth-speak.org and Those Few 42:20 Biblical basis and caliber of the dialogue 44:42 Atheism and universal law 50:22 Imposters 54:40 Possession and disorders/illnesses 58:45 The Accuser / guilt vs. conviction 65:01 Acknowledging and engaging in the spiritual war 78:41 Nefarious's explanation of the demonic rebellion  79:44 Acting and characters 81:53 Good and evil 84:45 The Cross of Christ 88:04 The content and presentation of Nefarious 92:41 The battle of good vs. evil 93:24 Closing prayer Hosted on Acast.
