True, Satan has designs for this sin-sick world, but then so does our God. For this reason, the introduction summarizes, first, God's glorious plan, which itself will culminate in a God-ordained global theocracy at the onset of Christ's Millennial Kingdom. Summation of Satan's counterfeit plan in its multi-faceted complexity follows. The two plans are contrasted.

This vigilant Christian's glossary covers timely topics relating especially to the cosmic gospel of New Age neo-pantheistic syncretism, as promoted through inner circles of secret societies, Wicca, Theosophy, and the occult-driven Club of Rome. Moreover, it delineates global thrusts in governmental, economic, and spiritual arenas.

At the same time, it unmasks a strategy to shape the public's mind set toward accepting "the lie" of 2 Thessalonians 2. Willing agents of deception include public education and the mainstream media, both promoters of compatible ideologies such as solipsism, historic optimism, and postmodern thought.

This volume is not intended to be the definitive work on any given subject, nor does it seek to sensationalize or frighten. It is rather a singularly unique organizational tool with which nonbelievers and believers alike can refresh and hopefully expand cognition of today's most pressing ethical and moral issues. This reference will surely seize the attention of political conservatives, alert Bible students, teachers, ministers, and lay persons everywhere.
