Product Description

There's a WAR Going on...and Your FAITH Is at Stake.

Imagine for a minute that you are in a war.

You're on the frontlines.

You see the explosions

And you smell the smoke.

Wounded loved ones are falling around you, and you want to fight back; but the unseen enemy seems to be everywhere, and he seems to have the advantage. If only you could know the plans and strategies of this unseen enemy, then you could know where he will strike next and how to fight him.

This war, of course, is not between two countries and is not waged with earthly weapons, but it is very real, and you are living in it right now. This war is spiritual, and the enemy you fight is not of this world but of the unseen spiritual world.

In this newly revised and updated bestseller, Joe Beam reveal Satan's powerful weaponry -- his lies, deceptions, and manipulations -- and unmasks his strategy to destroy your life and those you care for. This is not a book of wild sensationalism; rather, it is a dedicated study of God's Word and a sharing of stories of tragedy and triumph.

Open this book,

uncover your enemy,

and prepare for victory.

5.0 out of 5 stars Seeing the Unseen: Your eyes will be opened, September 24, 2004

By	Brian L. Simonin "Brian L. Simonin" (Las Cruces, NM USA) - See all my reviews

I really enjoyed this book. Very logical and thoughtful with scripture to back up major points. The NIV translation of the Bible uses the terms rulers, authorities, and powers of this dark world to represent spiritual forces of evil. Joe Beam goes into great detail to define these terms and brings you into the great drama that took place on the cross. There was a great battle that took place in the history of creation. God chose to be a humble child who grew up to be a carpenter to end the war and defeat sin, death, and Satan. There is one chapter that is a melodrama in which Joe Beam takes us right to the cross where Satan confronts his Creator. Satan thinks he won by killing his King. Only to realize that his pride and arrogance helped save mankind from God's wrath. Seeing the Unseen takes you into the cold war that is still battling on until the day Christ returns. My faith was strengthened and yours might be to if you decide to read this book.

4.0 out of 5 stars Seeing the Unseen: Preparing Yourself for Spiritual Warfare, January 5, 2004

By	John Nowlin "John Nowlin" (Greensboro, NC) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I loved this book. While i grew up a Christian, and attend church regularly i was never introduced to this side of things. Joe does a great job of dividing between what is and is not scriptural. In the process he informs the reader about the dark world that satan rules, but more importantly about the power over it in Jesus Christ. i enjoy that he laid his opinion out as just that, and his opinions are really quite fascinating. .

Great book, especially for the evangelical Christian, God Bless. . .

5.0 out of 5 stars Must read for all Christians!!!! , November 20, 2004

By	Debra K. Moore (El Paso, TX) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is by far one of the best bible studies I have ever read. Mr. Beam provides an in depth study of spiritual warfare. Using scripture, he explains exactly what angels and demons are, how they know us and how they influence our lives. More importantly, he uses scripture to show us how we can protect ourselves. I've been a Christian all my life, but after reading this book, my eyes have been opened. I've read the book twice and plan to read it again. I also plan to purchase and give copies to friends and family for Christmas. I respect Mr. Beam as an author of tremendous integrity. He uses scripture to back up everything in the book. When he is expressing his opinion, he clearly tells you. Thanks Mr. Beam for helping us in our spiritual journey. Louis Moore
