Restoring Survivors of Ritual Abuse - Patricia Baird Clark - Bog

In this 218 page book, Patricia Baird Clark calls the church forward to understand and minister for the bizarre abuse called satanic ritual abuse. With no formal psychological training she has been able to bring people with diagnoses such as schizophrenia, paranoia, bipolar disorder and borderline personality into complete remission through Jesus Christ. One of these women had been hospitalized in psychiatric hospitals seven times, heavily medicated and given electric shock treatments. No one had ascertained she was severely abused or had dissociative identity disorder. This is a common problem because most mental health professionals are not trained to understand spiritual realities such as the prevalence of Satanism in our society or the existence of demonic powers. This is why the church needs to get involved. The effects of such spiritually driven abuse can only be undone by the power of Jesus Christ brought forth through a committed, loving Christian. This book describes how cultists and demons working together construct a demonically powered inner world in their victim where memories and dissociated parts remain hidden from the conscious mind. Through releasing the Holy Spirit in prayer to reveal these things to the troubled person, the memories and dissociated parts are brought to the surface where ministry can take place. The pain of each episode needs to be released. The lies believed because of the abuse must be renounced and replaced with God's truth. Demons that came in through the abuse must be cast out. Forgiveness must be extended to those who did the abuse. The Holy Spirit must be released to heal the pain. This is obviously the work of the church. Only those who are called by God should do this ministry, but many are called and don't know it. How can they know it when they've not heard of the abuse (which is carefully concealed by the media) nor do they realize the power of Christ within to set others free? We have been conditioned to believe in diseases and medical science when we should be looking for spiritual conditions and biblical solutions administered by Christians. Many mental health professionals are not Christians so would not be able to bring the presence of Jesus to heal much less be able to cast out demons. In many mental health clinics, Christian prayer and deliverance are forbidden. This is why it is imperative for Christian lay persons and ministers to get involved in this ministry. With the call of God and this book, Restoring Survivors of Ritual Abuse in hand, the church can join powerfully with Jesus in His ministry to heal the broken hearted and set the captives free.
