| Petra never rocked harder then they did here, on this semi-sequel to This Means War! The opening three tracks are perhaps the most intense consecutive 12 minutes in the band's history. 'Council Of the Holy' still stands as one of my favorites.

| MSJanke nailed it. Petra never rocked as hard as they did on the opening 3 tracks, though Defector has probably the hardest riff the band ever did. The chugga-chugga rhythm guitars in Hit You Where You Live just make me go Ahhhh... Of all the ballads Petra did since John Schlitt joined the band, First Love has to be one of the worst. But Homeless Few is one of the best. It really makes you think. Somebody's Gonna Praise His Name is another, fast-paced rocker worth any metalhead's time.

| This album REALLY rocks. Minefield has got to be the heaviest song EVER and man, John's voice really screams here. I have to disagree with First Love being the worst ballad. I love it, and his voice is awesome on there. But I like 'Open Book' better.

| A hands-down classic! The 1st three songs are killers. 'Somebody's Gonna, etc.'is also a great rocker. Never heard Petra do better. 2 other CDs I've gotten from them don't match this one in intensity, hooks, and originality. Perhaps, Petra should've learned from this and avoided all those line-up changes? I can't give it a 10 because of 'Homeless Few' which opens with something like bongo drums (??). Save nonsense like that for folk singers and lite rock. Drop that song and On Fire! is perfect.

| At this time, I was graduating HS and this was the heaviest I had ever heard Petra. Used to play this album as loud as I could in my car. God Bless Petra! They were very heavy, but listen to Homeless Few and they are so cool. This song was a great way to end the album. Shows their versatility and the message was so cool. I loved the whole album. I especially like Defector, Mine Field, Homeless Few, stand in the Gap. The whole album is good for me. I have it on CD now and listen to it.

| Way back in 1989 I got to see Petra live in concert during the 'On Fire' world tour. I had been a Petra fan and album collector ever since 'Not Of This World'. But had never seen them perform live. The concert was in Sacramento, CA at the Arco Arena (indoor basketball arena) and I have to say, it was by far the loudest Christian rock concert I had ever been to!!! But, I totally loved it. Totally confirmed my love and devotion to Petra, the band, and the song playlist for that night totally ROCKE
