"The only kind of Christianity in the New Testament is Christianity with power."If you are skeptical about--yet intrigued by--the issue of spiritual power for today, Charles Kraft provides a biblical, reasonable apologetic for a realm too often overlooked. He describes his own paradigm shift concerning the power of Jesus to heal and free others, and explains persuasively why every Christian should be confronted with this "missing dimension." Confronting Powerless Christianity will inspire a more robust faith that is powerful enough to heal, to free people from emotional wounds and to bring about real life change.

Healing and Freedom Are Just Two Hours AwayMany Christians believe that once we are saved, past wounds, hurts and even consequences from mistakes get swept away. Yet what happens if we continue to be plagued with spiritual and emotional problems, and the intimacy we long for with Christ seems elusive?What we need, says inner healing expert Charles H. Kraft, is deep-level healing: healing for our whole person--spirit, body, mind, emotions, and will. Using a simple, proven process, refined through 25 years of successful ministry, Kraft leads readers step by step through deep-level healing.Once you experience true freedom, you will find the intimacy with Jesus that you desire, and you'll be equipped to help others find this freedom as well.

After His resurrection, Jesus did the most amazing thing: He passed His own authority on to His followers. To you.Right now you possess the same authority as Jesus. Authority to drive demons from people, to heal the sick, to claim protection from harm and harassment.You carry an amazing amount of Holy Spirit power.With incredible insight, respected scholar and teacher Dr. Charles Kraft helps awaken you to the extraordinary authority you have been given through the Holy Spirit--the same Spirit who empowered Jesus.Do you know how to wield it?He will show you how to exercise and release this authority properly and wisely into and over all areas of life--both your own and others'.You can transform and free lives from the oppressing power of Satan.We are at war, but we have the authority and power of Jesus to wage it. Fight with confidence and assurance, knowing that whatever the powers of darkness can muster, you can defeat them.You have the authority of heaven itself. How will you use it?"A remarkable book."--Francis and Judith MacNutt, Christian Healing Ministries

Are you aware of the spiritual battle being waged around you today?The truth is that although spiritual warfare is a major theme in the Bible, many of us gloss over it--or ignore it completely.

We cannot afford to practice a powerless Christianity in a fallen world.In this essential, accessible resource, former evangelical seminary professor and missionary Charles Kraft helps you find your footing in the spiritual battle. Based on a solid biblical foundation and on decades of ministry experience, this book will help you:·Differentiate between myths and truths about spiritual warfare·Recognize the everyday battles taking place around you·Learn what demons really are and what they actually do·Understand the rules for engaging the enemy·Achieve victory in daily battles with the help of the Holy SpiritDon't let fear keep you from engaging the spiritual forces at work around you. Some problems can't be overcome in any other way."This book is a must-read for anyone looking to engage in spiritual warfare." --Larry Richards, author of The Full Armor of God"Dr. Kraft has removed the veil of mystery that has surrounded deliverance ministry for far too long. With truth and honesty, he has opened the door to the evangelical community and given us the tools to set the captives free."--Tim Howard, president and founder, Wellsprings of Freedom International"For more than thirty years now, Dr. Charles Kraft has been studying and writing about spiritual warfare.

This book is a must-read for any who seek to understand God's work in the world today from the vantage point of an evangelical who daily engages in spiritual warfare."--Scott Moreau, professor of intercultural studies, Wheaton College Graduate School"Most Christians are blind to the spiritual realities around us. This book pulls back the veil into the unseen world, where there is a battle. This book will quickly become a classic. Charles is steeped in wisdom in the area of spiritual warfare and has dedicated his life to bringing restoration to the church."--Judith MacNutt, M.A., president and co-founder, Christian Healing Ministries"Charles Kraft has taken a topic that is still controversial among some in the body of Christ--spiritual warfare--and boiled it down to something we can all agree on: There is an enemy countering expressions of God's love in the lives of believers and lost souls alike that we must combat."--Jennifer LeClaire, senior editor at Charisma magazine and director of Awakening House of Prayer in Fort Lauderdale"Again, Chuck Kraft has reminded us that 'we are at war with a cruel enemy.' This guide to the warfare reflects Dr. Kraft's passion for God's people to experience the full measure of the Father's love. His writing is grace-filled, balanced, thoughtful and practical."--John Shultz, Ph.D., president, Ashland Theogical Seminary

A poor self-image. Chronic depression. A bitter divorce. The trauma of sexual abuse. Why do some wounds fester and refuse to heal, even after we seek help from those who specialize in treating deep emotional pain? Kraft believes that in order to experience real and lasting freedom from a painful past, we must understand the powerful link between spiritual warfare and inner healing. It is only when we recognize and reject the enemy's influence on our most hurtful memories that we can receive complete restoration in mind, heart, and spirit. Deep Wounds, Deep Healing is a complete guide to deep-level healing. Whether readers are seeking restoration for themselves or for those under their care, this book will enable them to recognize the spiritual roots of emotional wounds and invite God's presence into those darkest of places. His power is the hope of freedom and inner healing.

Satan knows something that most of us fail to consider: human beings are the crown of God's creation. It is this position of honor in all the cosmos that draws Satan's ire.With thoughtful and encouraging insight into our position of value in God's eyes, Charles Kraft explores the overt attacks that destroy our self-image--and the hidden ones too. In his powerful and fortifying book, he answers these and other questions:· What does our existence mean to God?· What does it mean to Satan?· How can we stand strong in the warfare raging around us?It is time to stop letting the enemy dominate our lives. The battle can be won as we stand strong in our awareness of who we are. The enemy knows. Do we?

Det verkar vara något främmande inuti mig som tar över ibland. Pappa hjälp mig! Jag är rädd!. Orden kom från en 14-årig flicka. Pappan, en sedan länge kristen man, hade ingen aning om hur han skulle bemöta problemet. Hur hade du reagerat? Många kristna tror inte att problem med demoner existerar idag, särskilt inte hos troende. Tyvärr är demoniskt betryck ett verkligt andligt problem som de flesta av oss inte vet hur vi ska bemöta om vi ställs inför det. Dr Charles Kraft har många gånger sett Gud bryta demoniskt inflytande i kristnas liv när trossyskon kastat ut demoner i Jesu namn. Men Dr Kraft har också sett behovet av inre helande och ibland långvarigt själavårdande för att lösa djupa andliga, känslomässiga och psykiska problem som förstärkts under demoners inflytande. I Besegra mörkrets änglar förklarar Dr Kraft hur demoner fungerar, hur man ska motstå deras inflytande och hur man bryter deras grepp om kristnas liv. Han förklarar också vikten av helande och omsorg efter att förtrycket är brutet. Detta är en viktig lärobok om hur man övervinner mörkrets änglar i sitt liv, sin familj samt hur man betjänar andra till Guds frihet.
