Excerpt from The God of This World, The Footprints of Satan: Or the Devil in History In former treatises, which have been very kindly received by the reading public, the writer endeavored to illustrate the Power, Wisdom and Goodness of God as seen in his wonder-working Providence, and in his no less wonderful works of creation. The following pages are devoted to the great Antagonistic Power, that riots in the Apostasy - that reigns among the children of disobedience. We have seen how completely benevolence pervades all the works of the Divine hand - how all the works of creation - all the variations, uses and adaptations of these works, and all the ways of Providence if left unperverted to work out their own legitimate ends, are instinct with the Goodness of God. We shall see on the other hand, how a great opposing Power, by usurpation the God of this world, has been allowed to try his hand at the management of the affairs of this lower world. We have seen what God has done, and from what he has done we may very safely infer that the end to be achieved by the Divine plans is one of infinite benevolence - that it involves the greatest amount of happiness to man, as well as the supreme glory of God.
