Meanwhile, the trailer for The Pope’s Exorcist makes it clear that the new film will have plenty of spitting, as well as flying objects, vomit spiked with nails or dead animals, levitating bodies and phrases spoken in occult or dead tongues, all elements associated with these rituals (thanks, in part, to the writings of Amorth), along with one of the priest’s most famous quotes, one that seems to have been written to be uttered by Crowe: “I’m not afraid of the devil. The devil is afraid of me.” Now, in these never-before-published interviews, Father Amorth takes you into his private world, giving you a harrowing vision of his daily battles with the Devil. Here you won't meet a wizard or a crazy man. Instead, you'll encounter a solid Christian and a humble priest, one who jokes and takes life as God "€" or the Devil! "€" hands it to him. Exorcism is not a Hallmark movie. It is hard and can be prolonged. If the struggles of a life of faith are harsh and sometimes incomprehensible, so are the struggles of obtaining a person’s liberation in an exorcism. Faith that never gives up is critical. So is humility rather than ego or arrogance (“It is I, the exorcist, I am here, all is well!”) When Father Amorth died in 2016, he was the world's most famous exorcist, a legendary, miraculous chaser of demons. To the many he served, Father was a godsend, freeing them from years of demonic oppression; to others, he was just a crank "€" an extremist priest who saw the Devil everywhere.

Father Amorth did some,” confirms Acuña, who cites as precedents the miracles of the healing of the daughter of the Syrophoenician woman and the healing of the centurion’s servant, both carried out remotely by Jesus Christ, according to the Scriptures. The priest also explains that “the Our Father contains an exorcism: ‘Deliver us from the evil one.’ The original does not say ‘evil,’ it says ‘the evil one.’ Therefore, all Christians who believe in the devil can do an exorcism by saying the Our Father prayer.”This is the man played by Russell Crowe in the current movie The Pope’s Exorcist. However in this book Fr Amorth’s focus is on the why of human suffering. This review is written from his POV. Not only will you learn from Father how he proceeds and why; you'll discover the source of his profound faith and remarkable courage: strengths essential not only to exorcists, but to every person who would truly love and serve God. A priest of the Congregation of San Paolo, Fr. Gabriele Amorth (1925-2016) was internationally recognized as the world's greatest exorcist. His mission of expelling the devil through incessant dedication has earned the gratitude of thousands of believers and the esteem of the most important authorities of the Catholic Church. He has written various successful works and has a very popular radio program on Radio Maria in Rome. The book was not what I expected. It’s set up as an interview Q&A format. A great deal of catechisis in the first part of the book through Father Amorth. Good for those who haven’t had a catechism course.

The demonologist, who has given lectures at the Regina Apostolorum Pontifical Athenaeum in Rome, is not particularly fond of the film subgenre, considering it “folkloric and not very rigorous.” Apart from The Exorcist, which he does consider an accurate representation of what it means to face “powerful principalities of hell,” he only likes two more films: The Exorcism of Emily Rose (2005) and The Rite (2011) — despite their “cinematic and fanciful” elements. However, in the more than 1,200 exorcisms that he claims to have performed in his 18-year career (the first was at the age of 42; he is now 60), he has “seen it all,” he says. “Except for a head turning 360 degrees — that’s impossible!” Not only will you learn from Father how he proceeds and why; you’ll discover the source of his profound faith and remarkable courage: strengths essential not only to exorcists, but to every person who would truly love and serve God. Now, in these never-before-published interviews, Father Amorth takes you into his private world, giving you a harrowing vision of his daily battles with the Devil.

To the many he served, Father was a godsend, freeing them from years of demonic oppression; to others, he was just a crank – an extremist priest who saw the Devil everywhere. The two books An Exorcist Tells His Story and An Exorcist: More Stories are not official Roman Catholic documents, rather personal accounts of his office as Exorcist. The books use witness accounts and personal experience as evidence. When Father Amorth died in 2016, he was the world's most famous exorcist, a legendary, miraculous chaser of demons.

In my first exorcism, I saw a 42-kilo [92.5-pound] teenager push big men aside as if they were made of paper. That is known as Samsonism. He was possessed by three spirits. When I was done, I went outside to cool down and got in my car. With the key still in my hand, the doors shut closed, the lights came on, including the interior light, and the horn began to sound. That day I knew that I had just exchanged business cards with the devil.” From madness to possession Tall and balding with a welcoming smile, Father Gabriele Amorth spent decades battling the Devil one-on-one, performing literally tens of thousands of exorcisms.
