Yeah, Dealing with the Devil. That was my first clue that all is not well with Christian bookstores. In the mid-70's mind you. I don't think I read more than 20 or 30 pages before I tore it up. Yeah, I know, that many???

Dealing with the Devil and that one were big when I was in the Navy many moons ago.
Help Lord, The Devil wants me fat!

I didn't know he wrote THAT. Figures.

I can't remember the title of the book I read in late 60's, but it was something like Evangelism Made Easy. The book tells how to manipulate people in making a decision for Christ. It actually gave step-by-step instructions on every little thing to do. I'd been a Christian for only a few years but I knew even at the time is was horrible.

This one was to heaven. I ordered it from CBD for a book club that I belonged to at the time. I didn't take her second trip with her though.

Isn't that the book where hell is shaped in the form of a body of a man?
