#4 The Invisible Enemy: Black Fox (Volume 1) by Anthony R Howard

This is a great book, and an easy read, (Edited by the Harvard Divinity School). It asks a thought provoking question, then answers it in a fascinating Biblical and history based story*: In today’s age of social media, divisive politics, and boiling social issues, what would happen if The Creator returned to Earth today, and what would the Enemy do?* Devil’s Diary dives into the current world of spiritual warfare. No story like this exists anywhere.
I checked as I’m a fan of prophecy and spirituality myself. simply No story has posed the hard questions to the reader, then answered them. The book the Son of Man returns, but its not quite what you’d expect. This is not about the rapture. It’s about God vs His enemies, the war between good and evil, and what hell really is.
