The Binding of Satan - Deep in History, Ep. 47

Marcus Grodi and Msgr. Jeffrey Steenson continue their journey through the 2nd century Christian work Against Heresies by St. Irenaeus of Lyons.

Satan has always sought to disrupt God's plan, and especially to ruin humanity, the crown of God's creation.
