Satan Cast Out was first published in 1975 and reprinted in 1990. But it's the year 2000 and Amazon.com doesn't even have a review. This demonstrates, to me at least, the shallowness of the Christian Reading community. "Opinion Leaders" who should be reading this book and recommending it to others are so taken back by Leahy's biblical reasoning, they know it will stop their David Copperfield like "fire and brimstone" wow the bumpkins theology of "Spiritual Warfare"! Bad for the old offerings I suppose.

While admitting the Reality of Demons and Spiritual Warfare, Leahy biblically shows how intellectually foolish and addled most modern spiritual warriors really are. Get this book if you want a Christ centered, instead of a Boogey Man centered view of spiritual warfare.

I'd give it 5 stars, but Powlison's book on Power Encounters is great too as is War Psalms of the Price of Peace.

This is an awesome book - I read it cover to cover looking up most of the Scriptures quoted to see if what was being written was Biblical. I think Leahy has a real handle on Biblical demonology and it would do the any soul well to read this book for such a small price.

It is very well written, concise, Biblical, and God honoring.

If you are a professing Christian or someone seeking what the Bible has to say about what the Bible has to say about demonolgy, this book is a must for you.

I'm not of the "Demons = Fallen Angels" or "Satan has already been cast out of Heaven" school of thought.
