Guiding Sheep to Heaven;
Books on spiritual warfare are a dime a dozen. It’s a popular topic because every faithful Christian is assaulted by the unceasing attacks of the world and the devil in his or her day-to-day life. The shelves of my local Christian bookstore are cluttered with self-help material listing ways to subdue temptation and prevent the evil one from gaining territory.
Fictional novels on the subject compel us to question whether God is actually in control of the universe and if he could use our help. A few books address the unique spiritual and mental struggles that pastors suffer in their ministries. Then there are the rarer, more intriguing books on demon possession. These books can feel like the snuff of Christian literature for both clergy and laity alike; when we read them to satisfy curiosity, they can make our spiritual lives even worse.
The one message that stands out amidst this jumble—the Holy Bible—offers us the only entirely trustworthy window into these unseen realities, ensuring that we’re not “outwitted by Satan” (2 Corthians 2:11) through ignorance or misunderstanding.
