5.0 out of 5 stars The Real War Revealed, October 18, 2000

By	Eric Ramm (Canyon Country, CA) - See all my reviews

"The Rules Of Engagement" analyzes the heirarchy we perceive exists in the spiritual realm--heaven and hell. As the concept of spirital warfare becomes more generally known, the importance of understanding the relationship between our behavior and the spiritual influences--good and bad--in our lives becomes vital. This book is a reference work, a sort of "Janes's" manual for recognizing the forces that the powers of darkness hurl at both Christians and non-believers alike in their very real war against the Kingdom of God. This book is a valuable resource for anyone aware of the spiritual nature of the battles we face in daily life and an important tool for those of us whose primary weapon is prayer.

5.0 out of 5 stars An Easy and Strong Foundation, October 7, 2000

By	Julie Hicks (Santa Clarita, CA) - See all my reviews

I am very excited about this book. This book gives us the key answers to the rules of Spiritual Battles. This book can be read slowly or fast, for each observation enables you to be alert about that simple principle. I encourage you to buy several copies of this book. I will be praying for the author David DeBord, that he will write more books, his style is so easy to understand.

I highly recommend this as a cautious, non-sensational and reasonable approach to the subject. Excellent resource.
