Slaying Dragons II - The Rise of the Occult: What Exorcists & Former Occultists

Description: Slaying Dragons II - The Rise of the Occult by Charles D. Fraune For even the casual observer, it is evident that the world, nearly as a whole, is unmoored from obedience to Almighty God. The number of sins, many of which "cry to Heaven for vengeance," which saturate the culture and the personal lives of the common man are legion, both in their breadth and in their diabolical quality. This spiritual depravity has invited, into the light of day, the Enemy who has always been working in darkness.The Rise of the Occult presents to the reader an analysis of this emergence of the Enemy, in which Satan has found it to be the time to stir men back to idolatry, superstition, and ritualized hedonism. Witchcraft, Wicca, magic, Satanism, the New Age, astrology, Yoga, manifesting, and all of its countless variations are captivating the minds of modern men for whom the One True God has either been hidden or has been dismissed in favor of the annihilation of morality. It is this moral autonomy, in which man is "free" to "do as thou wilt," which is the calling card of all forms of occult practice.In The Rise of the Occult, by the author of the best-selling spiritual warfare book, Slaying Dragons: What Exorcists See & What We Should Know, the reader will learn: Where is the occult present in the culture today?How is the occult luring people, especially the youth, to embrace it?What are the real dangers of even minor dabbling in occult practices?Are demons truly active in all forms of occult practice, even witchcraft?How does a person escape the prison which the demons create for occultists?These questions, and more, will be answered as the reader hears from former occultists, priests (exorcists and pastors) who have helped them, families who have lost children or parents to the occult, and those who have seen the evil spread of the occult amidst their daily activities.

We who stand at the sacred altar of Jesus Christ and say the prayers of consecration over bread and wine need to be aware of the reality of evil and the occult that seeks to contradict our sacred work. All men and women of faith know that Jesus Christ has conquered evil, death and sin; He has conquered satan. The father of lies is relentless in trying to pull humanity into perdition with him and we who know the Holy must be just as relentless in ridding our lives of evil. I believe Charles Fraunes book can be an important tool for priests and laity as they seek to guide the people of God to holiness and away from the darkness of the occult."Bishop Joseph Strickland, Bishop of Tyler, TX"Our modern technological time, which boasts itself of having achieved the peak of freedom, is in effect languishing in an enormous slavery to Satan. The open display of signs of satanism, and the impudent acts of revolt and blasphemy against Gods created order and against Jesus Christ, have increased to a quasi-apocalyptic degree. Satan, the deceiver, offers to men his products of fake happiness and peace. The price and the means of these fake goods is occultism with its varied and sometimes seemingly harmless practices. With his valuable book Charles D. Fraune unmasks the widespread occult practices, which have crept even into the life of the Church. This book represents a necessary and salutary warning cry against the demonic deceptions of our day and, at the same time, it points to the only valid and efficacious means of spiritual healing and liberation which Jesus Christ left His Church, the only institution here on earth against which the gates of hell will not prevail." Bishop Athanasius Schneider, Auxiliary Bishop of Saint Mary in Astana "In The Rise of the Occult, Mr. Fraune offers the mystical body of Christ an invaluable resource. In recent years we have witnessed a significant increase in demonic and pagan activity while the faith of so many Catholics has been weakened. Conversely, the culture seems to be "waking up" to the reality of the preternatural threats that lurk in the shadows. Fraunes book should be on the bookshelf in every Catholic home, as he has found a way to present the relevant information while tempering any anxiety that may arise through sound information and solid catechesis. Hopefully, as participation in the Occult increases, Catholics will be equipped to deal with the issue with the perennial wisdom of the Church. It is doubtless that Fraunes work will serve to strengthen the Church Militant in this battle."Kennedy Hall, Catholic author and speaker. Details ISBN1961721007 Author Charles D.
