Throughout this book, there will be a lot of
reference to the Kingdom of Darkness and their
activity. This is because, unlike God’s holy angels,
the fallen angels like to make a show and draw
attention to themselves, and so we know more of
their works throughout history than that of the
Holy Angels. Unless we defer to Sacred Scripture,
where there are many references to God’s angels,
and from where we should draw our conclusions
along with sound doctrine and theology, we will
not get the right picture or accurate discernment,
and so in one way, this is a book of discernment.
The consequence of a lack of reliable
teaching about the angelic world is that people
make up their own conclusions and speculations
to grapple with their experiences, most especially
regarding demonic manifestations, and in
addition, a lack of knowledge causes them to seek
answers from the wrong sources and so more
confusion and more despair is the result as I see it.
One charming little notion that prevails
these days is that when we die we become an
angel and do good things for others. This is
certainly the view of Oprah Winfrey as stated on
one of her shows for example, but I am not sure
where this idea comes from except that I
remember people using it as a way of explaining
what happens after death to young children. In
