Chapter
XXVII.
And Christians have nothing to fear, even if
demons should not be well-disposed to them; for they are protected by
the Supreme God, who is well pleased with their piety, and who sets His
divine angels to watch over those who are worthy of such guardianship,
so that they can suffer nothing from demons. He who by his piety
possesses the favour of the Most High, who has accepted the guidance of
Jesus, the “Angel of the great counsel,”4892
being well contented with the favour of God
through Christ Jesus, may say with confidence that he has nothing to
suffer from the whole host of demons. “The Lord is my light
and my salvation; whom shall I fear? The Lord is the strength of
my life; of whom shall I be afraid? Though an host should encamp
against me, my heart shall not fear.”4893
So much, then, in reply to those
statements of Celsus: “If they are demons, they too
evidently belong to God, and they are to be believed, to be sacrificed
to according to the laws, and prayers are to be offered to them that
they may be propitious.”E.C.F. INDEX & SEARCH
