A significant part of Jesus' ministry was casting demons out of people suffering under their oppression. The need for this ministry has not gone away but has increased in our age of "contemporary occultism." This Deliverance Handbook will equip both seasoned pastors and lay Christians of all denominations to rightly handle the serious work of bringing relief to people in need. The objective is to see deliverance ministry restored to the everyday life of the church, with the purpose of helping others learn how to do this work. It is hoped that church leaders/pastors will use this handbook to teach others how to conduct this vital ministry.
Subjects include: *Preparing the Ministry Team, *Can a Christian Have a Demon?, *Avoiding a Physical Battle, *Doing Online Deliverance, *Group Deliverance, *Pre- and Post- Counseling, *The Role of Forgiveness and Repentance, *Self-Deliverance, *Do's and Don'ts, *An Extensive Questionnaire for the Sufferer to determine the origin of their invasion by demons.
Sprinkled throughout are amazing stories from Pastor Philpott's own experiences. An appendix contains insights gleaned from other ministers and authors in this field. Companions to this book are Deliver Us from Evil (2014) and A Manual of Demonology and the Occult (2021). Together, this trilogy, some of the videos made by the author, and a selection of recommended books by others in the field will be sufficient background for well more than a curious involvement. See the author's website earthenvesselmedia.com.
Jesus reminded his followers, "BUT IF IT IS BY THE FINGER OF GOD THAT I CAST OUT DEMONS, THEN THE KINGDOM OF GOD HAS COME UPON YOU." (LUKE 11:20)
