This Book Still Challenges....

The Challenging Counterfeit by Raphael Gasson published in 1966 still challenges us today. I was struck by how very pertinent and up to date the information in this book is to the church of the 21st century. Many of the things described by Gasson, a former Spiritualist medium, as taking place in the meetings of Spiritualists interacting with evil spirits (demons) during previous decades have taken a quantum leap forward and are now seen as everyday occurances in church meetings today. I found many parallels between the healings, miracles, signs and wonders taking place at so-called "Christian" meetings today--especially those involved in the Prophetic movement--with those occuring at the Spiritualist meetings Gasson was involved in. Truly counterfeit miracles and lying wonders are happening with greater frequency now than ever before. In reading this book, I was also challenged, more than ever before, to 'seek the best gifts,' as Satan only counterfeits gifts that are real to begin with. Gasson never loses sight of this fact as he compares the real gifts of the Holy Spirit with Satan's very subtle, very clever, and very real counterfeits. The people of God are challenged in this book not to neglect the real gifts He has given through the power of His Holy Spirit. Redemption: Bible Prophecy Simplified Woman Submit!

The need to challenge the counterfeit.

This book is extremely helpful in uncovering the subtilties of the enemy's workings to seduce even the True believer in todays world. Today there are christians who emphasize "Experience" over the Written Word. This book defines the individual workings of the occult.

Whoa - What a Book!

Short commentary from an extremely satisfied reader. I read this book in 1982 or so during a Biblical research class. The Challenging Counterfeit, in my opinion at least, has to be the best book of it's kind. It is most descriptive and detailed. Authored obviously by a person who has been there and survived well enough intact to write about it. Should you ever decide you want to dabble in spiritualism I highly reccomend this book as you may change your mind. Definitely food for thought.
