The Enemy Within



Have you ever wondered why as Christians we sometimes do not act as though we are? The Enemy Within will illustrate how we wrestle with the decisions between good and evil; how we want to do the right thing but feel as though there is someone else—our sinful nature— forcing us to do that which is evil. The Enemy Within exposes the power struggles that we have between the flesh and the spirit man within us. The stakes
are high; you should choose this day which of the two powers will win control over your life. The decision is yours, but the cost is everlasting.


"I challenge you read The Enemy Within. Your life will never be the same." - James T. Sims, Pastor/Teacher-Lake Zion Baptist Church

"Mrs. Jackson's approach is simplistic and yet profound enough to reach those of every social, economical and spiritual background." - Bishop Jerry L. Maiden, Sr. Pastor / National President The Church of The Living God

"Bravo to Mrs. Sheila L. Jackson for writing The Enemy Within! She has written a great book that is insightful, heartfelt, and easy to read." - Sharon M. Watson, Military Guidance Counselor, CACREP, certified

The Enemy Within by the title itself speaks of a condition that is inescapable if dealt with alone. The message strikes at the core of the innate depravity mankind (both male and female). The deeper message convey that the depth of sin's corruption is written into the DNA of our entire being! The author understands that you cannot parlay with the flesh because there is no good thing within it, and no advantages draw from the flesh. Further, the author understands the detriment of mere attempting to parley between the flesh and Spirit in that darkness has no fellowship with Light. NOT JUST A GREAT READ, BUT A GREAT TRUTH!!!

As a Christian, have you ever felt you were constantly trying to do right, but it was always coming out wrong? Well, THE ENEMY WITHIN addresses and explains, up close and personal, what is really happening with Christians on the internal battlefield. This book details an internal battle raging within all the children of God. Sheila L. Jackson explains what happens to the old person (flesh) and the new person (spirit) once we receive salvation. First, do not be deceived, your flesh doesn't just disappear once you become saved. It is still there operating in a continuous battle against our new spiritual nature. This battle began in the Garden of Eden, when Adam and Eve listened to Satan and introduced sin to the world. We are now reaping the consequences of their choices from so many thousands of years ago.

Jackson puts the reader in the cat seat for aN enlightening and mind-altering view of what happens to the flesh and the spirit in one's body. She defines it as a constant battle between the two. She uses scripture, her life lessons and a great teaching voice to show all Christians that the battle against Satan doesn't end with confession; you must really work at subduing the flesh daily with study, prayer and a constant renewing of the mind. This book is really nicely organized and easy to follow. If you've been troubled with why you do the things you do, when you know better spiritually, THE ENEMY WITHIN is a very edifying read.

Author Sheila L. Jackson beautifully shared with her readers a powerful deliverance treatise in her revealing and compassionate book, The Enemy Within. She prayerfully described the subtle workings of the flesh prompted by our adversary, the Devil. This book meticulously penetrates the kingdom of Satan's stronghold and gives great hope to those who are struggling with consistently walking a saved and spirit-filled life. Her godly message is very strong and spiritually rich and it is immediately obvious that her wise and gracious teaching is filled with the grace of Christ's love. This book also portrays her beautiful testimony of how God saved her and led her to a Christ-centered life. This book is a must-read for those who want a brighter and more powerful walk with their Lord and Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ.

    My Soul Cried Out

    This book spoke gently yet firmly to my 'spirit man'. I saw so much of my life and my own struggles depicted here. I am grateful to the author for being obedient and writing the book. It has been a blessing to me in so many ways. I am pleased to share it with others in faith, hope and prayer that their lives will be forever changed.
