Crushing the Head

Don LindbladRomans 16:20

Romans 16:20 contains a striking promise — that the God of peace shall bruise Satan under the feet of his people. This sermon expounds that promise by tracing the crushing of Satan across five dimensions: historically at the cross, judicially in justification, experientially in the believer's security, ecclesiastically in the preservation of the church, and eschatologically at the end of days. The word translated 'shortly' is shown to carry connotations of certainty and sovereignty rather than mere temporal nearness, grounding the church's confidence in God's irreversible triumph over the adversary.
