    About this ebook

    Can God defend His law against Lucifer's colossal arsenal of evil? Can the weakness of God's love Defeat the power of Lucifer's domination?

    The controversy between God and Lucifer has been raging for millennia. In the last great battle of this conflict God is going defeat Lucifer's empire of evil through a remnant of weak and vulnerable men. On their loyalty He will stake the honor—and survival—of His throne.

      It is Satan's constant effort to misrepresent the character of God, the nature of sin, and the real issues at stake in the great controversy. His sophistry lessens the obligation of the divine law and gives men license to sin. At the same time he causes them to cherish false conceptions of God so that they regard Him with fear and hate rather than with love. The cruelty inherent in his own character is attributed to the Creator; it is embodied in systems of religion and expressed in modes of worship.

      ― Ellen White, Great Controversy between Christ and Satan

      INTRODUCTION

      We haven’t lived very long before we realize that something has gone critically wrong with our universe. We begin to understand from our earliest stories that two principles contend for supremacy in our world: good and evil. These principles have clashed with each other throughout history, and are rushing headlong toward a final confrontation.

      The fabric of every life and civilization on earth is caught up into this conflict. Every life must enter this moral battle in which it has no choice but to decide on which side it will play. This crucial decision should not be left to chance, but should be informed by a closer look at the game pieces and the rules of play.

      The purpose of this book is to see the grand central theme of the history of this war between good and evil. What are the fundamental issues at stake in this controversy from its very beginning? What has kept it from being resolved for so many centuries? What must happen before it can be brought to a close?

      I have written this book, because too often we miss the logic of God’s purpose on earth and in our lives. We don’t look at the big picture, so we miss the forest for the trees. If we don’t understand the crucial issues underpinning the struggle here on earth, then the unique Seventh Day Adventist interpretation of prophecy will make no sense. Yet if we see the root of the controversy clearly, then all of the tenets of our faith will add up.

      This story goes behind the scenes to explore the vital questions concerning the cause and resolution of this great controversy. In understanding these issues, we will see beyond the limited light of past generations and stand a better chance of fighting on the side of good instead of evil.

      CHAPTER ONE

      How could he neglect me like this?! cried the mighty angel. A fine way he has of returning devotion! I would expect much more from a god who is love, far more than this betrayal of my faithful service.

      He frowned as he mounted his wings upward to a height far above us. His voice swelled, and it washed over our hearts like a tempest.

      I am Lucifer, the Enlightened One, he said, and if he won’t listen to me or include me in his counsels, I will not stand by and submit to such abuse.

      His high brow shook as he finished.

      I will be heard! I will take his throne by force if I must!

      Panic surged through me as I listened. Even though I sympathized with him, such possibilities had never crossed my mind. Fear invaded me. What was happening to us?

      As I stood paralyzed, a massive quadrant of angels broke off and moved toward the north.

      Go ahead! Lucifer shouted after them, Tell him all about it—like he doesn’t know already!

      His eyes met mine, and he spoke quietly.

      Follow them, he said.

      I hurried after them, and soon we came before God. Mighty seas of angels were awash upon his lofty throne. Our voices swelled as one.

      How will you deal with Lucifer? we cried.

      * * *

      As God gazed out across the vast assembly before him, sadness shadowed his face. The specter of pain stole the characteristic twinkle from his eyes. Lucifer had come to the end of
