Comments Off on The Battle For The Spirits Of Mankind by V.W. Thomson
The Battle for the Spirits of Mankind uses the whole Bible to seek answers to such questions as: Who is the devil? Where did he come from? Of whom does the Godhead consist? Who is in charge of the Universe now? Who will say when time shall be no more? What will happen on Judgment Day? Who records names in the Book of Life after the persons have met certain commands?
For only those whose names are in the Book of Life will be able to go to Heaven, which is our whole purpose for living on this Earth.
