With N., you're supposed to specify the exact type of evil spirit you're attempting to bind.

He even has a Latin version.  Is that supposed to imply that this is some official prayer of the Church?

That Latin sounds like something a priest would say.



What the devil are you supposed to insert for the "N."??! The name of the demon? His rank in the infernal choirs of angels? What? And how are you supposed to know any of this information? By asking the demon to show you his ID and proof of insurance?! This is not just bizarre, it's outright disturbing!
You don't try to identify the demon. It's in the introduction in to the book.

How can you critique a book you've never read ?

Yes, there's a list on the followig page of possible values for N. ... e.g. "spirit of fornication," "spirit of gluttony," etc.
Right, but not their names.

Holy Angels, I'd really like to see an example of ANY prayer written before Vatican II that addresses a demon. I highly doubt you'll be able to find one. We address ourselves to God and the blessed in prayer, not to demons, sheesh! Is this really news to you? We do not talk to demons! Period. Seriously! Do you not get this??!

Actually the Lord's Prayer asks for deliverance "from the evil one".

Okay, but it says right at the top of that page in huge letters that it is supposed to be said by a priest only. I wasn't including the prayers of the exorcism ceremony, which do in fact address the devil. I was talking about prayers that anyone can say.

And it addresses this request to God the Father, not to the devil.

I think we are confusing deliverance prayers with exorcism rites.


38{37}John answered him, saying: Master, we saw one casting out devils in thy name, who followeth not us: and we forbade him. 39{38}But Jesus said: Do not forbid him. For there is no man that doth a miracle in my name and can soon speak ill of me.
