“This book examines from an historical perspective the battle of spiritual delusion and unbelief against real faith in God. The entire history of mankind can be viewed as basically Satan’s war against God, for the human heart. The primary weapon of the father of lies is, naturally, falsehood, along with distortion and unbelief. In order to survive and be saved in this terrible war of falsehood, we must arm ourselves with an understanding of that simple and pure Truth revealed to us by Christ through His apostles.”
