Teaching believers how to wage spiritual warfare against Satan and his demons is central to the translation being launched from Whitaker House in May.

Satanás es su nombre … ¿Cuáles son sus tretas? Un enfoque bíblico y con autoridad hacia la guerra espiritual (978-1-603-74093-7, $10.99) is a Spanish version of Strongman’s His Name … What’s His Game? An Authoritative Biblical Approach to Spiritual Warfare. Written by Jerry and Carol Robeson, Whitaker published the original English book in January 2000.

“The authors do an effective job at getting at the root of spiritual warfare, namely Satan’s specific minions assigned to geographic areas and churches to create mayhem,” Tom Cox, managing editor at Whitaker House, told Christian Retailing.

“Without dealing with these strongmen (16 demonic spirits), it’s like treating the symptoms of a disease instead of the root cause,” he added. “Because Satan doesn’t recognize boundaries, roaming the entire earth looking for souls to destroy, spiritual warfare is part of the human condition.”

The Robesons were missionaries for 20 years, holding open-air crusades, helping establish churches and working in a TV and radio ministry. After Jerry died in 1999, Carol continued leading seminars on spiritual warfare in the U.S. and Latin America. She is also the owner of Shiloh Publishing House in Vancouver, Wash.
