Event Description

A fierce war rages for your soul….Are you ready for battle?  

On September 29th -Feast of St. Michael-thru October 1st at the brand new & amazing Kalahari Resort & Convention Center, in Round Rock/AustinTX, Fullness of Truth presents its timely Southern Regional Conference entitled, Spiritual Warfare: The Rules of Engagement!”  Arm yourselves with the expertise of an internationally-renown authority on Deliverance Ministry, Demonology & Exorcism, FATHER CHAD RIPPERGER, as well as the powerful insights & strategies in resisting temptation and deepening your prayer-life from the rest of his LIBER CHRISTO TEAM: KYLE CLEMENTDR. DAN SCHNEIDER, and JESSE ROMERO, as they explore the crucial elements of Spiritual Warfare in your everyday life, especially since the outcome will determine your eternal destiny!

Like it or not, we are at war.  We face a powerful Enemy out to destroy us.  We live on the battlefield, so we can’t escape the conflict.  We must engage the Enemy.  Therefore, critical answers to key questions must be understood to successfully engage in battle.  Who is Satan, and what powers does he have?  What are his typical strategies?  Who fights him alongside us in this battle?  What spiritual weapons and armor do we possess?  How do we strategically keep the Enemy out of our camp?  What should we know about the occult, spiritualism, New Age practices, Freemasonry, etc.?

Spiritual combat is an interior struggle we deal with every day against the devil’s temptations.  Too often we ignore the ordinary Spiritual Warfare happening in our own lives. It’s too easy to pass it all off as “the devil’s not real—it’s all psychological”.  But make no mistake, Satan is always at work breeding sadness and anxiety, while providing obstacles that prevent souls from making spiritual progress.  Demons especially wage war against families because families are vital to God's plan of salvation.  This stark reality requires that your family members become well-trained spiritual warriors who actively secure your home and fight to keep it off-limits to demonic activity.  It is so important for spouses and children to become schooled in the art of spiritual combat.  You need to know how to withstand the spiritual attacks that inevitably come to destroy the harmonious family life you create.  Such combat is both inevitable and winnable.  So, when it comes to spiritual confrontation, are you really ready for the fight?

This event will provide attendees a proper level of thoroughness, to a theological topic which often is only addressed superficially.  Our presenters will help you understand the influence of the Enemy on your mind and heart, and the tactics you need to combat him.  You'll also learn the devil's strategies - how he does not necessarily seek to possess but simply to seed your family with the venom of hatred, desolation, envy, and vice.  Topics will include: angelology, demonology, the structure of authority, the different kinds of diabolic influence in detail, wounds and healing, the role of the sacraments and sacramentals as well as general methods of combat.  Armed with this knowledge, you and your loved ones will better understand the “rules of engagement”, and thus, will be better prepared to do daily battle with the Adversary, distinguishing between the voice of God and that of Satan.  Best of all, you'll come to see the spiritual life not as a science to be learned, but as an intuitive art to be practiced, as you move with increasing success from habitual sin to sanctity.

The battle for our souls is unavoidable.  The saints won theirs by learning how to be spiritual warriors and by recognizing that we become stronger through battle and grow weaker from avoidance.  Our Lady emphasized to the children of Fatima the need for the daily rosary, consecration to Her Immaculate Heart, and the use of sacramentals such as the Brown Scapular.  These, she pointed to as remedies for the horrific reality of “more souls falling into hell than ever before!”  This stark reality tells us more than ever, that the battle that is being waged in these times of tribulation, is a spiritual one.  To fight the battle, we must implore the assistance of heaven.  Most especially, we can look to the greatest of saints that came before us, and were triumphant militants against the powers of darkness.

Therefore, this timely conference is designed to provide you and your family with a sound battle plan, and to provide Christians the information & tools they need to reign victorious in “The End”.  Don’t miss it!

Our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.
