A Must Read!!!

I began my spirtual journey by reading "New Age" books, then God grabbed a hold of me and showed me the real and only Truth there is, which is through his only Son, our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. But, even though I've been a Christian for some time now, I still always wondered what the big deal is with horoscopes, channeling angels, crystal power, spirits from the other side, ect. and other sorts of "new age" occultism. I heard the answers before, but never really truly understood them. But now from reading this book, I understand and realize the true danger of opening ourselves up to all of that. I've read the reviews that said this book was biased and just a great big lie, but I see now that they don't know what they just read. This book is a must read for those who are wondering why "new age" and other occult subjects really should not be messed with.

Excellent Book!

I was so happy to find a book explaining the supernatural and what we are up against as Christians in a way that was very easy to understand. I would recommend it for anyone who has any questions about astrology, phychics, hypnosis, UFOs, demons, etc. Well worth the read.

Sometimes the Truth Hurts

If you are seeking a Biblically truthful guideline for your spiritual journey you will find this book very helpful. Those who have actually read their Bibles will know that Christ warned us about many of these same pagan practices and beliefs that are presented in The Dark Side of the Supernatural.

The Dark Side of the Supernatural

I found it biblically sound in it's facts. This was inspired and informative, fresh and innovative. Any good Christian would have to agree with the authors of this book. Cleanly written and easy to understand.
