A review by trywii
Unmasking the Jezebel Spirit by John Paul Jackson
1.0
This book is thinly veiled misogyny and wrongfully turns various human traits into something inherently evil, and I feel the need to leave this review just as a heads up.
The book attributes a WIDE range of habits, desires, motivations, etc to that of a demonic source. For example, it puts women’s rights on the same ‘counter culture’ platform as Wicca, being a strong-headed leader (as a woman) as a bad thing when in men it’s a good thing, and overall fails to understand that humans can simply have a variety of specialties/interests without being motivated by hatred.
It also needs to be said that while the book mentions this ‘phenomena’ happening in both men and women, the author almost always gives examples and negative connotations to women. Such negative traits include teaching others, suggesting a church may be becoming ‘cultish’, and saying things like “You don’t understand me.” or “You intimidate me.”. I suspect that when someone says they’re very worried about groups being called cultish and that they’re anxious about women taking leadership roles…something is amiss.
Overall, it was also very dull, there wasn’t much said outside of what’s mentioned here besides tying it in to bible verses. Despite being from 2014, it feels very dated in both concept and execution.
