Thorough Research and Explanation of a Complex Subject

I owe a huge debt to Dr. Otis for his research regarding this subject. The author launched his research to determine why spiritual darkness exists where it does. It is clear that territorial spirits are both real and Biblical. But, as believers we need to go a step further and understand why are they there and how can we seek God's guidance in overcoming their harmful effects.Twilight Labyrinth is not a quick read. The early chapters provide an introduction and make the research relevant. The next third of the chapters discuss historical concepts, spiritual beliefs and psychological realities, pointing toward their cause and effect relationships. Finally, the book offers a summary of why darkness exists where it does based on Brother George's research. This work requires effort and maturity on the part of the reader, however it offers a conclusion that should be understood by all church leaders. If you are ready for an indepth study into spiritual warfare, This book is for you.

A Deeper Look Into Spiritual Warfare

I have read many books about spiritual warfare and this is the first that I have read that makes me have to take a break and gather my thoughts. It seriously makes you think and opens your eyes to many of the things of the spirit. I'm only on page 114 and I am blown away. Most spiritual warfare books only tell you what spirit does this and how it does that, but this book takes you to the core. Where did this spirit come from and HOW did it get that way? Where is the open door? It is excellent. This book also shows how the enemy works through animals. Wonderful!

An Incredible Tour of the Dark Side

Mr. Otis has spent seven years of investigation traveling to nearly fifty nations of the world to offer to the Body of Christ, the Church, a searing report on the workings of the enemy in the world from ancient times until now. This book will equip serious intercessors with enough information to target their prayers with accuracy, causing damage in the spiritual realm analagous to the damage caused by "smart bombs." He deserves a PhD for all of the intricately documented research he conducted (60 pages of notes!). This book is for those Believers in Jesus Christ serious about their prayers & intercession. He went there so we don't have to, and God bless him for that! Some topics he covers: How the enemy, the Dragon, reveals himself to humanity; How ancient man migrated out from Mt.Ararat to settle the earth, and the pacts he made with the enemy; How the enemy has been able to enslave mankind throughout the ages; and strategies for re-taking territory that has been lost to the enemy over the millenia.

Thought provoking, insightful, macroview

Well worth reading, The Twilight Labyrinth provides a framework and historical overview regarding how corporate sin and trauma, have opened the gates for demons to exercise darkness over entire populations. The ideas presented seem to be based on well researched facts. While well written, non-native English speakers may have to use a dictionary as an aide. Highly recommended to anyone doing spiritual mapping in Asia. The section on shamonism is very helpful.

A compelling work that aptly explains Spiritual Darkness!

George Otis Jr. Matches personal accounts and recorded experiences with a tracing of the historical development of the spiritual strongholds that still exist today. From the beginning, Man was intended to have an unbroken relationship with his Creator, but due to the Fall from Grace, he brought generations of suffering to the world. Now, we have deliverance from the spiritual forces of darkness through Our Savior. Scholarship, resources and a plan to defeat the strongholds are all covered in this work! It is a "must-read" for any person that wishes to understand the difficulty that Christians face in the evangelizing of certain nations, including our own. Definitely a book to be discussed!
