Description: When I first heard of this book, I thought, "What a weird title." Surely this book was just another of the Christian mystic genre that I had no interest in. But when I got into it, what I found was a gut-wrenching challenge to crucify my pride.
John Bevere's Bait of Satan challenges us to guard our hearts from holding on to grudges, emotional wounds, bitterness, and offenses. No easy task, this challenge strikes at the heart of our commitment to "forgive as we are forgiven".
This topic is largely neglected in Christian writings and preaching, so (in my humble opinion) Bevere's work has earned its place as necessary reading in basic Christian living. It is well written, easy to read, but difficult to digest. It deserves to be read once a year. This is how spiritually challenging it is. It is one of those books you have to pray through while reading it. And don't forget your highlighter!
I ususally yawn when I hear people say, "Next to the Bible, you need to read this book." Yet after reading it, that is exactly how I feel about BAIT OF SATAN. Next to the Bible, its the most challenging and spiritually practical book I've studied. You won't be disappointed.

Details: This book is an excellent tool to be used with your bible and can easily be applied to your daily walk in christ and everyday life. A spiritual breakthrough is instore for you, should you choose to apply the wisdoms of the word. Through the excersices that are used for the end of each chaper in the BACK of the book I was awakend to things so minute that I didnt see they were holding me back. Offense is a serious burden that can bind your spirit in ways you's never imagine. Just the realization alone is freeing. It will make a difference... |

Review Summary: How to quit getting trapped by the devil |

Details: This is the first book I've read by John Bevere, and it won't be the last. Bevere makes the issue of offense clear and shows the destructive implications of being offended. I've read other good books on the subject, but this one is groundbreaking because Bevere has unique insights and communicates them effectively. Most people struggle with the issue of offense at least sometimes, and this book makes it easy to remember why offense is always a trap of the enemy that needs to be avoided. |
