Part V Demonology:
- ch02 The Enemy's Doorways & Discernment: taxonomy (ranks Peon→Foot
Soldier→Soldier→General; the rule of ownership), three phases
(Infestation→Oppression→Possession, corroborated by Ed Warren / Amorth),
doorways (occult, objects, places=history, trauma, generational sin,
sin/metanoia, sound), ranked signs, corroboration discernment, authority.
- ch03 Possession: body-not-spark; three stages (obsession rejected);
documented + witnessed signs; subtypes (classic/pact/transient);
deliverance built on ch01 + rule of ownership; aftercare. Dr. Richard
Gallagher verified (CNN/WaPo) and corrected (Catholic layman, not clergy).
Part III Testimony: new accounts #16 The Girl in the Bedroom, #17 The
Stranger at Walmart, #18 The Possessed Man (appended to preserve 1–15
numbering and cross-refs).
Book-wide: hostile entities now capitalized (Demon/the Enemy/Legion/ranks);
adjective "demonic" stays lowercase. Retroactive sweep of Part I ch01/ch03/
ch04, Part II ch02, Part III, Part V ch01.
Docs: OUTLINE, GLOSSARY, STYLE-GUIDE updated. Input seeds (part5-ch02/ch03)
and research folders (generational_sin, sin, stages_of_posession_research)
plus daily_prayer.md and additional_testimony.md added.

Per author's choice, give the PGM/exorcism material (ai_answers.md
Block 2) its own Part, placed before the Battle Manual: theory of the
enemy -> tactics. Add Part V ch01 'The Mechanics of Authority' (one
worldview, name-as-power, adjuration/naming/binding, command-without-
ritual, the 'stronger man'), sourced to NT + PGM, with Christ-authority
and the author's own-methods line left [NEEDS YOUR INPUT].
Renumber empty folders only (battle 5->6, reference 6->7); no existing
content disturbed. Sync design doc, OUTLINE (+Reading Path), CLAUDE.md,
README, STYLE-GUIDE; fix forward refs (Battle now Part VI). All
internal cross-links verified resolving.

Fold the added material into a new section after 'What I Found':
off-the-shelf spiritual-warfare books omit the practical knowledge
(anointing, making holy oil), so the author built his own battle-
tested methods. Author's claims preserved verbatim; cross-linked
forward to Parts V and IV.

Shape input/evolution.md into the family-history chapter: the
author's path from his mother's charge through Eastern paths, Ki,
witchcraft and its price, the turn to Christ, the Bible's cracks,
the age-43 deep dive, and landing on Gnosticism/Sethians/Sumerians,
closing on the evidence-based framing. Voice preserved, cross-linked
to Part III; teaching content deferred to Part I. Update OUTLINE.

Fold in author's ball-of-light distance (#11, ~5 ft turn, 12-15 ft
total) with number style normalized; format dedication signature
("Fazer," Phillip Tarrant) keeping the intentional spelling. Add a
Protected Spellings section to the style guide so 'Fazer' is never
autocorrected. ch01 now fully complete, no open markers.

Fix run-on in the skeptic-grabbed account ending (flashlight knocked
across the attic). Polish input/dedication.md into Part II ch01 —
warm dedication letter to the family and Sarah, meaning and voice
preserved, signature left [NEEDS YOUR INPUT]. Update OUTLINE.
