ill., br. Uno dei massimi esperti italiani di demonologia, Renzo Lavatori, chiarisce la verità sulla figura di Satana, l'angelo del male, secondo la rivelazione biblica e la dottrina della Chiesa. Il libro vuole mettere chiarezza e ordine su un tema delicato e complesso, in un momento storico di piena confusione. Chi è Satana? Cosa fa e qual è il suo potere? Che posto gli compete? Queste alcune delle domande alle quali l'autore offre una risposta puntuale e rigorosa, attraverso l'analisi delle fonti antiche e moderne e offrendo ai lettori una panoramica sulle posizioni dei teologi contemporanei. Attraverso lo studio di Satana si conferma la visione positiva dell'uomo, al centro della quale emerge l'opera salvifica del Cristo, il Verbo incarnato, morto e risorto, che mostra come il bene prevalga sul male, la vita sulla morte e il "mysterium amoris" sul "mysterium iniquitatis".
br. Il male costituisce senza dubbio uno degli aspetti più sconcertanti e assurdi dell'esistenza. Esso coinvolge l'essere umano nella sua globalità, dall'ambito dei sentimenti al corpo, dalla sfera morale e religiosa a quella politica, dai rapporti col prossimo a quelli con l'ambiente. Ma se Dio, sommo Bene, ha creato ogni cosa, perché tanta malvagità? La risposta risiede nel peccato di Satana, che di sua libera iniziativa si ribellò a Dio sovvertendo l'ordine della creazione e diffondendo il caos nell'universo. Ma esiste davvero Satana e chi è esattamente? Qual è la sua natura e quali i suoi poteri? Renzo Lavatori affronta questi quesiti con puntualità e rigore, analizzando le fonti antiche e moderne e offrendo ai lettori una panoramica esaustiva sulle posizioni dei teologi contemporanei. Dall'incontro tra demonologia e antropologia scaturisce una comprensione della figura satanica che, paradossalmente, getta luce sulla complessità dell'essere umano. Attraverso lo studio di Satana si conferma la visione positiva dell'uomo, al centro della quale emerge l'opera del Cristo, il Verbo incarnato, morto e risorto, che mostra come il bene prevalga sul male, la vita sulla morte e il mysterium amoris sul mysterium iniquitatis.

br. «Se pensi che per sfuggire da Satana sia sufficiente credere in Dio, ti sbagli. Anche Satana crede in Dio». Michela "Fuggita da Satana" è la testimonianza forte e sconvolgente di Michela, una donna che al culmine della carriera, attraverso incontri apparentemente innocui con un gruppo esoterico, incontra il male. Si ritrova in una setta satanica e, attraverso un indottrinamento lento e minuzioso, giunge a scalarne le gerarchie interne fino ad arrivare a essere un'aspirante sacerdotessa di Satana. Per arrivare al gradino più alto, e avere finalmente il "potere", le manca un'unica cosa da fare: uccidere! La vittima è la Fondatrice di una comunità che si occupa di "recuperare" i "perduti". Michela si prepara a questo ultimo passo progettandolo in ogni minimo particolare, ma non sa che i suoi progetti saranno stravolti da un abbraccio... che le salverà la vita e le farà incontrare Gesù Cristo, Dio della vita. Un libro che ricorda a tutti che il Bene avrà sempre la meglio sul male! In questa edizione è stata inserita un'appendice che spiega: la diffusione odierna della magia, le sue diverse forme, il giudizio dottrinale della Chiesa, la differenza tra maleficio e possessione diabolica, l'attività evangelizzatrice della Chiesa per contrastare magia e spiritismo. Si tratta della Nota Pastorale dei Vescovi della Toscana sulla magia e la demonologia.
brossura Le maledizioni sataniche sono una terribile realtà in questo mondo satanizzato e possono colpire persone di qualsiasi classe sociale. Le sofferenze dovute alle "maledizioni" sono un fatto obiettivo e indiscutibile; spesso sono omologabili a malattie gravissime che si possono protrarre per anni. È doveroso, quindi, che una persona intelligente si armi contro le maledizioni: tanti si salvano perché sanno pregare o perché c'è qualcuno che prega per loro anche se non lo sanno. In questo libro scopriamo come difenderci dalle maledizioni e quali sono le preghiere più efficaci da recitare.
