When the angelic Gabriel and the insolent Lucifer (an arrogant devil if ever there was one) debate the relevance of contemporary Christianity, sparks fly. But The Devil Be Gone is more than just a theology-laden critique of humanism masked as satirical dialogue. This unique work of religious fiction has the potential to shift paradigms and change hearts.
The modern church, the validity of prayer, the body of Christ, free will...no stone is left unturned in Jerry Tucker's debut novel. Readers will find that God has tasked Gabriel with refreshing Lucifer's memory on both His sovereignty and the devil's ultimate destiny. In this imaginary debate between two spiritual beings, Lucifer gleefully boasts of his army of fallen angels and the role they've played in promoting secular humanism while Gabriel uses scripture to remind those subject to God's power-including the devil-that God's record in promise fulfillment is undefeated.
In the end, Gabriel need boast only in the Lord, for Lucifer has one glaring blind spot: he understands nothing of God's matchless and unending love for humanity.
Fans of C. S. Lewis's much-beloved classic The Screwtape Letters will revel in this deadly serious yet humorous addition to the genre of religious satire.
