Of Princes, Popes and Pawns

A Biblical Exposé on Spiritual Authority: It's Proper Use, Unfortunate Abuse and What Christ Expects of His People

“Of Princes, Popes and Pawns” offers a biblical explanation: why prayers go unanswered, evil seems to prevail, and why Christ’s church seems powerless and ineffectual. It is An Exposé of Spiritual Authority: how to use it properly, how it is too often neglected and forfeited to others. It highlights the righteous authority of God working through Holiness, as opposed to; the authority we have surrendered to demons, who have successfully subverted the authority Christ intends for His saints to wield.

This book reveals how spiritual entities called, Principalities and Powers, have for centuries affected (emotionally) cultural group-think and have implemented systematic governance to keep all mankind in locked down ignorance of the Truth, (aka: darkness). Causing us to sin against God by way of traditions, customs, superstitions, and laws; keeping us in cultural systematic SIN, while excusing it, as just a normal part of life.

This critique, is not without an antidote, but gives biblical and historical examples of how things can and should be done rightly. How the Bride of Christ can indeed “make herself ready” and how God’s people can grow up, “to the fulness of the stature of Christ”, becoming then “a glorious church, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing, but that she should be Holy, without blemish!”
