This Is Not The Devil's World

The purpose of this book is to celebrate the victory that all of the saints of God can have through the power and the might of a personal relationship with Christ. It has been divided into three parts. Part one is entitled, "The Devil could NOT overthrow God." In that part, the reader will learn when and how the devil had actually become the devil. Then the fact of his never ending troublemaking within this world will be discussed. A key point that will be shown is that he is not in control of the events of this life. In fact, he is actually very limited as to what he can and cannot do.

Part two is entitled, "The Devil CANNOT overthrow or stop the Saints." In that part, key times and events in the lives of Job, David, Abraham, and Joseph will be presented. Then, chapter six will share five truths about the occurrence of pain and evil in this existence. Many people question how an omnipotent and omniscient God can be all-powerful and all-knowing in a world where so much pain and evil exist. Their argument basically says that either God is not good because He allows bad things to happen or that He is not all-powerful and all-knowing because He apparently cannot keep bad things from happening. So that topic will be explored in that chapter. It will be shown that God does not treat people like robots. Also one of the important discussions within this text about this life is that this life is not really about this life anyway. So after that unusual discovery, chapter seven will show that the devil could not stop people through demon-possession. He could not stop Ananias and Sapphira from being eternally saved. He could not stop the work of Paul. He also could not stop the work for which Jesus had been incarnated. Finally, part three is entitled, "The Devil CANNOT limit the Holy Spirit." In that part, it will be shown that the devil cannot keep people from getting saved. He cannot keep them from learning the truth about the Lord or even the truth about himself. He cannot keep them from serving the Lord, and he cannot make any of them sin. Then, the final chapter of this text will share four important ways that a person can live a truly victorious life in this existence. The first way is about loving the Lord. The second way is about trusting in Him. The third way is about serving Him. The fourth way is about always remembering that the devil has been and is defeated. Therefore, with a little effort, anyone can practice those scripturally-based principles or ways in his or her life and enjoy an abundant and joyful life. Then, when this life is over, he or she will be ideally prepared to go to be with the Lord forever and ever. The hope in writing this text is that the Lord will be honored and glorified by those things that have been written. It is also hoped that anyone that might currently be in the grips of Satan will be able to break free and be drawn to the Lord. A simple truth that everyone needs to know is that Jesus loves but that the devil hates. With the Lord, there is peace, joy, contentment, and satisfaction. But with the devil, there is no peace, no joy, no contentment, and no satisfaction. With the Lord, there is hope eternal and an everlasting existence in His presence. But with the devil, there is no hope and only everlasting doom and condemnation in hades and gehenna. Thus, no one that comes to the Lord on this side of the grave will be ever sorry on the other side of the grave. But by contrast, anyone that does not come to Him will be sorry for all eternity. So do not be one of those that will forever wish that they had come to Christ. The door is now open.
