Gisbertus Voet
A Disputation of Spiritual Abandonments
Christian warfare is by no means the least part in the practice of holiness.
In which must be confidently considered:
1. The Christian warrior and his weapons.
2. The enemies confronted.
3. The war or the battle itself.
4. The resistance.
The enemies are the difficulties of this life, the scandalous and the sorrows. The shameful acts of various evils and sins, with her seductions and enticements. The sad pleasures, afflictions and temptations; spiritual or internal; physical and external.
The external afflictions are sickness, poverty, persecution etc. The inward are spiritual abandonment and the temptation there of.
Excluding all other enemies and parts of the fight, we shall here only explore and deal with the spiritual expressions. The curses (lit. Anti-gifts), the method and manner of healing. Lastly we shall answer questions about the fallen conscience.
