Spiritual warfare...
A mission, a movement, a summons - now more than ever.

“Non serviam.” “I will not serve.” When Lucifer,now known as Satan, uttered those words he brought evil into the created order. With those two words Lucifer ignited the mother of all battles, one that still rages today. God’s desire is that you join Him in the joy of His eternal love. Satan’s desire is that you join him in the putrid and vile pit of Hell. God desires your eternal happiness while Satan desires your eternal separation from God. Spiritual warfare, then, refers to both the battle that took place between God and Satan and the battles that are taking place between evil spirits and human beings.
The moment you were conceived, you were thrust into a battle for your immortal soul. When you were born, you were born into a war zone. When you were baptized, you were fitted with combat boots. You also, in that precise moment, became a child of God and an enemy of Satan.
You may be saying to yourself, "but I didn't sign up for this. I don't want to do battle, I'm not a fighter". Welcome to the Church Militant! By virtue of your baptism you are a soldier, and you are either a soldier of and for Christ, or you are a soldier against Him. Far too many people are unclear about their proper role in spiritual warfare. They remain uncertain about the power and authority they possess by virtue of their baptism.
More and more Catholics are experiencing the effect of Satan's influence in our world, on our culture and in their own families. It is largely due to the collective ignorance and apathy of the people of God - and the efforts of the demons - that so many within the Church would prefer to not speak of the reality of Satan and the necessity of spiritual warfare. Ignorance and apathy lead to discomfort and fear.
In Onward Catholic Soldier: Spiritual Warfare According to Scripture, the Church and the Saints, you will find simple, yet profound, truths that we all need to know to protect and defend ourselves. Tapping into the wisdom of the past 2000 years of Church history, you will learn how and when to engage in battle. By God's grace and under the protection of the Blessed Virgin Mary, you will be able to claim the victory that Jesus won.
But in all these things we overcome, because of him who has loved us. For I am certain that neither death, nor life, nor Angels, nor Principalities, nor Powers, nor the present things, nor the future things, nor strength, nor the heights, nor the depths, nor any other created thing, will be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Romans 8:37-39
