Cindy Jacobs - General of Spiritual Warfare
Summary
Part II: Cindy Jacobs — General of Spiritual Warfare
Cindy Jacobs is one of the most influential independent charismatic prophets on the planet, and almost no one outside of Pentecostal-Charismatic circles has any idea who she is or what she does. It was through Cindy Jacobs that C. Peter Wagner came to believe that Christian prayer could be mobilized on a grand scale to affect and open up entire nations to the gospel.
Wagner and Jacobs and a whole bunch of other Charismatics came to believe that, not only are Christians called to do battle against the demonic “principalities” and “powers” (Ephesians 6), but that these “territorial spirits” could take control over specific geographical areas and regions. Wagner imagined elaborate hierarchies of demons—demon commanders, demon generals—who ruled over actual, physical earthly territory. In this episode, we see how these seemingly peculiar spiritual warfare paradigms played directly into the Capitol Riot, including through Jacobs’ own presence there.
