Unbound

Catholic lay teacher, Neil Lozano, has written a book called Unbound: A Practical Guide to Deliverance from Evil Spirits . I highly recommend it.

Lozano provides a sound, mature, non-hysterical approach to dealing with the slavery that the Evil One imposes on each of us. Let me be blunt: this book is not some type of "wacko" book in which people shout at and abuse others to get demons out. Read it and judge for yourself.

Why do I recommend Lozano's work?
1. His approach is mature, balanced, sane, and consistent with the Catholic faith
2. Our culture, including many Catholics, acts and talks as if the Evil One does not exist at all
3. The long-term entanglements of very serious sin--especially in the sexual area--have skyrocketed in a culture that continually deceives us into thinking that sexual sin and addiction are harmless and even healthy.
4. Lozano reminds us that there is a simple but powerful way to become unbound from the deceptions of Satan. That simple way is to invoke the power and authority of the Lord Jesus Christ in our lives. Too often, we see patterns of anger, slander, detraction, excessive criticism, denial, promiscuity, addiction to pornography, addiction to alcohol and drugs, inability to demonstrate non-possessive love and affection and form appropriate, respectful friendships, pride, perfectionism, and other evils that persist over time and which are often accepted as inevitable. They are not inevitable.

Many of us have had a great upbringing and have emerged fundamentally healthy in the way we relate to others. Many others have, in contrast, been deeply traumatized in their upbringing. Those of us fortunate to have had good parents still need to be unbound from the deceptions that the culture has pushed on us; and, of course, no upbringing, however healthy, is perfect or fully free from deception.

Those with more dysfunctional and traumatic experiences as children and young persons even more urgently need to be unbound from the slavery of evil. Lozano offers a sound way to begin to take back the freedom for which Christ has set us free.

If a person is saved then they CANNOT be bound by Satan. Scripture is very clear on that point through the writings of Paul. A person is either saved and Christ's, or unsaved and Satan's.

This is not to say Satan is without great influence and that Christians don't often allow themselves to follow his lead, but they cannot be bound by Satan.

He'd have to be stronger than God to do that.

I agree with you to an extent. Yes, once a person is saved they belong to Christ and that can not changed. HOWEVER, we would probably disgree on when salvation happens.

I don't believe a person is saved here on earth. I believe that takes place after the judgement. We must asked what we are saved from? If the answer is eternal damnation, then your final destination if you will, is not determined prior to one standing before God in judgement.

Many people claim salvation. Yet we remain sinners and one can reject Christ and live an unrepentant life after claiming such.

The rich young man asked Our Lord, "What must I do to be saved?" That is answered the same today: "Obey the commandments", Love of God, love of neighbor.
Jesus does not tell him to say the sinners prayer and he is in.

We are to work out our salvation with fear and trembling. That indicates that salvation is not instant nor "claimable"
