    About this ebook

    Slavery has a long and sordid history that will not be related in this short free book, but an overview will be given to provide a brief background for a look at the situation extant today. Does slavery still exist? Who are the slavers and who are the enslaved? How many slaves could there be? Maybe Twenty million or could it be more like several billions? Do you know any? Are you one of them?

    If you are not a Christian read the free book Divine Prerogative in order to understand the only real choice that is available in this world. If you want to know if the Bible is true read my free book The Great Question. If you want to know why humanity is on this planet read the free Universe and Beyond. If you want to learn about why the world is the way it is read the free SIN - Rebellion Within. In my free book Bride of Christ I identify the seven groups of people that populate the seven churches spoken of in the last book of the Bible called the Revelation to John. It is important that Christian readers download this book for it contains instructions (commands from Jesus) for Christians worldwide to follow. It is imperative that these instructions be shared as widely and with as many people as possible. The time for its fulfillment I think is near, and you will find out how near by reading the free Doomsday Timeline along with The END has Begun, Tribulation and ANTI Christ. If you want a scare read SATAN. If you want to know who Jesus is read CHRIST.For your greater edification I have provided for sale a four-book series on the Bible starting with the Old Testament in Plan for Life and ending with Revelation in The Living End. The other two books cover the Gospels and Letters.I hope you will find some enlightenment and encouragement in my writings.
