Excellent

I appreciate the biblical focus of this book on Spiritual Warfare. So much of what is taught on this subject today is mere speculation based on one's own reason and experience. The so-called experts in spiritual warfare refer to their experience to give authority to their words, going into extra-biblical teaching, doing just what the apostle Paul says we are NOT to do: "not to exceed what is written." 1 Cor.4:6 The authors of THIS book base their teaching of Spiritual Warfare on the correct interpretation of Scripture - and Scripture alone!

A book that penetrates to the heart of a crucial subject

Drs. Dean and Ice have written a fascinating book packed with solid, Biblical answers to questions including these: Can prayer exorcise a city? Can Christians be demon possessed? Can Christians be cursed? Will mind control help you? Can demons make you sin? Can you have a demon of lust? Can pagan objects haunt you? Can you inherit a demon?... No matter how much you've read or seen of the controversial subject of spiritual warfare, you're likely to find many valuable, new insights here. Have you wondered about the references in Ezekiel 28 and Isaiah 14 to "every precious stone was your covering," "you were the anointed cherub who covers," "by the abundance of your trade," and "Lucifer, son of the morning"? All this and much more is discussed. Best of all, there's a great deal of practical advice on exactly how to "put on the full armor of God" and "fight the good fight of faith" in one's own spiritual life. I treasure this book and highly recommend it to pastors and laypersons alike.

Biblically accurate and balanced

Too many of the texts out there on spiritual warfare take off on tangents and gain much of their "wisdom" from sources other than from the Bible (some even admit to getting their information straight from demons!). The biblical path is not demons behind every bush and it is not that demons do not exist. But inbetween these two extremes lies the biblical path set down by Dean and Ice.Please read this book before you go to Anderson or Hammond or any others on this matter. The information in this book is MUCH more biblical!
