| | War in Heaven |
| | It is a spiritual war between the mightiest among the mighty of God's spiritual creatures: those who fell away from Him and hate Him and strive after His authority, on the one hand; and those who remained obedient and subject to God and who therefore fight His battles, on the other. | | | First of all, it is against the simple meaning of the text to make of the man child the church invisible instead of the Christ. | | | At the same time that the devil carries on a war upon earth and watches the church, in order to devour the Christ as soon as He is born, or even to prevent His birth, he also wages war in heaven with the spiritual powers that remain standing. |

| | In "War in Heaven" one gets a glimpse beyond the veil to see ultimate spiritual reality consisting of powers and principalities swarming in defiance of a holy throne even as the King of Light engages all according to his overarching plan and by his undeniable power. | | | Although the little group who throw in their lot with the Archdeacon in War in Heaven come to live by a typically Williams-esque maxim, "Believe and doubt well," the book seems to end where it began, yet somehow everything is new. | | | There is a strong message of the role of faith, and of eccumenical Christianity in "War in Heaven." Maybe it isn't for sticklers on one denomination's doctrine, but for most, it is well worth ordering. |

| | He also attempts to enhance the role played by the spiritual aspect of the war, showing that Pontiac and his followers were greatly influenced by the teachings of the Delaware Prophet and his message of a return to native technologies and lifeways and a rejection of white influence. | | | Just as effectively, it challenges recent scholarship to argue that the provocations for 'the war called Pontiac's' were not the result of mere ignorance or arrogance but instead revealed fundamental tendencies of British policy. | | | The author maintains that the question of Indian status and prestige lie at the root of the conflict as the Indians tried to keep the balance between themselves and the British which they had always enjoyed with their previous allies, the French. |

| | "Melchizedek, Michael, and War in Heaven" |
| | It is quite clear that Melchizedek was introduced into the war in heaven myth secondarily, since he appears in the Hebrew Bible as the priest-king of Jerusalem (Gen 14:18-20) and as the patron of a priesthood of the Davidic kings (Ps 110:4). | | | There is another reference to someone making war at the eschaton in 13.15-16 (the plural subject is unclear), which is immediately preceded by mention of three categories of spiritual beings (?) along with "those [that dwell] in the heavens and those that are [upon] the earth and those that are under the earth" (13.12-15). | | | It was natural, and probably inevitable, that Christians should have made Jesus the hero of the war in heaven myth (as in Revelation 19-20 and the Odes of Solomon 22:5). |
