From the introduction:
Do you know that you and I are in a war? God is going to win the war, because He is Good, and stronger than any evil. But He wants you and me to help Him fight in this war to save the world from evil.
First we need to make sure that we are saved and enjoying a close friendship with Jesus. Then we need to train up, read our Bible, pray, and allow God’s Spirit to make us more like Jesus. Then we need to get out there and tell our friends how much God loves them and can change their lives. That’s what being a Christian is all about!
