Summary: For the Comfortable American Christian
Comment: If you are a comfortable American Christian, a product of our win-win, all powerful nation society, this book is for you. Satan is stripped of everything but his skin in Lutzer's calvalier treatment of his "limited" power over Christians. One wonders if the Angel Gabriel must bring poor Satan direct orders from God so he may take a leak.
Talk about opposite views! One can't get more black and white than this. I just finished this book and another entitled War on the Saints by Jesse Penn-Lewis, written by a Brit and originally published in Britain I'd say in the 60's, maybe earlier. This book will scare the wits out of Christians and one's faith, after reading it, may never be the same. The Brits have been at this longer than we have and I'm wondering whether they don't know the score better than we incurable Platonists.
However, it gets me to wondering which account to believe. One of these people is talking for Satan's purposes - they both can't be right, although I could see how both books would serve his infernal needs. Read some of (including my own) review of War of the Saints and try both books. Make up your own mind. Warnings tho, the new version may be edited (hmmm, for his purposes?) I have an old printing from Britain.
The final chapter in Lutzer's book I found amusing at first and then the gravity of it dawned on me. It is an attempt at an apologetic for God maintaining His creation of Hell as an eternal torture chamber for all who don't see eye to eye with Him. We won't get into whether I believe this or not. However, I got to thinking about what kind of human mind could finish this chapter and then shout "Right on!" The Third Reich may be dead, but can we now think it so amazing that many agreed with & participated in Hitler's atrocities without question? Maybe we should fear God. But even more, perhaps, should we fear the more imminent presence of the seemingly benevolent church goer who would swallow this concept as if it were a spoonful of sugar. If this can't raise a man's gorge, what hope have we now or in the life to come?
Anyway, read both these books. I'm keeping them for my collection.
Ave! Satanas

Summary: VICTORY!!
Comment: This book was very insightful for a number of reasons, but primairly because it reminds the reader that the victory has already been won. The war has been won but there are battles that still rage in our lives. But in Christ and by His Spirit we have the victory when we walk in obedience to Him. We oftentime give Satan far too much credit...isn't it ironic that the very thing that he rebelled against as an angel(submission) he is bound to do as a fallen creation? The things that Satan uses to try to destroy God's people are the things that God will use to develop us when we stand in His power. Truly every knee must bow and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord!!!!

Summary: The Serpent of Paradise : The Incredible Story of How Satan'
Comment: This book was one of the greatest books on describing Satan and his cunning ways, things we may never think about. I caught myself rereading a lot of the material because I wanted to really retain what was being taught about how we as humans fail to see the dark side of things. This book is one I won't forget. The descriptions of Satan and his whiling ways are just enormous. This book helped me tremendously in my Christian walk in noticing Satan's works in daily living. I would highly recommend this book for anyone, but read it slowly, to retain the meaning.
