THIS BOOK HAS BEEN WRITTEN BY A CHRISTIAN TO REVEAL HOW SATAN HAD PREVENTED HIM FROM SEEING THAT THE KINGDOM OF GOD WAS AVAILABLE TO HIM WHEN HE WAS CONVERTED AND RECEIVED THE HOLY SPIRIT.  BELIEVING THAT JESUS IS CHRIST, THE FIRST STEP IN THE PROCESS, IS A GIFT FROM GOD.  THE SECOND STEP, JOINING THE KINGDOM OF GOD WAS A PERSONAL CHOICE. BLINDED BY SATAN, IT TOOK A WHILE TO REVEAL GOD'S TRUTH.  JESUS STATED IN THE BIBLE THAT HE WANTED ALL FOLLOWERS OF CHRIST TO BE MEMBERS OF HIS KINGDOM.  MEL SERVES HERE ON EARTH UNTIL CHRIST COMES TO TAKE HIM FROM THIS EARTHLY KINGDOM TO HIS PLACE IN GOD'S HEAVENLY KINGDOM.
