The Sword of Gilead & The Book of Angels

            see that clearly as we go on. However, in spite of
            this,  the  angelic  realm  has  become  very  popular
            especially  with  the  advent  and  increase  of  the
            New Age Movement in particular. - Its adherents
            and  others  often  use  Christian  terminology  such
            as  "Guardian  Angels"  for  example,  to  describe
            consultation  with  what  are  actually  the  dead  or
            evil spirits.
                    The angels, to which they refer, were until
            recent  years,  called  "Spirit  Guides"  or  "Familiar
            Spirits" and in other circles still are, but they are
            clearly demonic, pagan, and the occult in origin. It
            is  perhaps  due  to  a  modernistic  idea  of  these
            stories as being childish notions that adults do not
            notice the authentic occult symbols and words in
            such  movies  as  the  seemingly  innocuous  Harry
            Potter, Supernatural and other television series as
            well as books, games, and movies like them. These
            are  often  virtual  catechisms  for  children  as  were
            many of the fairy tales of old.
                    A leading example of New  Age mix-and-
            match ideas about the real spirit world for adults
            that appears to be an authentic book about angels
            is a recent popular publication called, The Book of
            Angels, a work by  Kaya and Christian Muller. The
            book  calls  on  the  Kabbalah  and  occult  teachings
            that  they  claim  as  hidden  due  to  the  Spanish
            Inquisition  and  now  rediscovered  by  them  in
            1975.
