Hey everyone just posting this to push the book further. This is a great addition to the reading of unseen realm and any other spiritual beings type study. Would love to own this through logos and have heard great reviews about it. Amazon customers have said great things about it also. So if your interested in how Paul saw the spiritual battle that's been going on and that this theme was not at all foreign to the new testament writers. If your interested in the spiritual realm and how spiritual beings have interacted in the new testament, and as Christians how should we respond, then go to the link and preorder.
As one reviewer states, "This is a fascinating five-star book by a guy who believes in demons. He reasons that because belief in the spiritual world of demons and angels was prevalent among New Testament authors, we should believe the same today. In the preface, Arnold states “If we want help from the Bible for dealing with the problem of evil, we must be willing to take seriously what the Bible takes seriously: the intense involvement in life of a figure named Satan and his powers of darkness.” However, Arnold’s beliefs (other than the occasional call to take these things seriously) do not get in the way of excellent research into Biblical Demonology, and I thoroughly enjoyed his book."
