Quote from Lord Foulgrin.

In my last post I talked about a book I read called Lord Foulgrin's Letters by Randy Alcorn. Here's a short excerpt from it that shows how these demons are conspiring to make the humans fail.

This is Lord Foulgrin, the senior demon, writing a letter to his subordinate demon, Squaltaint. Fletcher is the name of the human that Squaltaint has been assigned to.

"One of your greatest opportunities to keep Fletcher from becoming a radical Christian is in the area of money and possessions. The carpenter claimed, "A man's life does not consist in the abundance of his possessions." Hold a mirror to those words and you have our perfect strategy.

It's a matter of physics Squaltaint. The more things the maggot-feeders accumulate, the greater their total mass. The greater the mass, the greater its gravitational pull. This sets the vermin in orbit around their things. Finally, like a black hole, their money and possessions suck them in. The vermin become indistinguishable from the things that hold them."

Interesting to think that a demon assigned to you may be getting these instructions . . .

sounds interesting. . .

with the kind of dreams i have, i could write that kind of book!

finished Christ The Lord Out of Egypt" on my holidays. I really liked it. I was touched by the 2 author's notes at the end. I'm reading "Approaching the Heart of Prophecy" right now. . .wow, its meaty and the exercises are tough. .

Excellent book - have your read the Ishbane Conspiracy its a follow up book written by Randy Alcorn and his daughters. I also enjoyed Deadline, Dominion, and Deception (sort of a series - they share characters). All three are great books that help us think about eternity with fresh eyes.
