The Prolonged Struggle of Supernatural Forces for Creation’s Loyalty as Revealed In— Vol. III.—The Life and Ministry of Jesus Christ — The Desire of Ages. Heritage Edition—Over 300 Century-Old Illustrations, 724 pages. This third volume—The Desire of Ages—covers the life and ministry of Jesus Christ as recorded in the four gospels. This is the heart-molding story of Jesus of Nazareth, the promised Seed of the Woman which was to conquer and eventually destroy the adversary of mankind—the serpent, the devil. This is the story of the central theme of all Scripture, the account of the life and ministry of the long-looked-for, and yet misunderstood and rejected by most, Messiah, Emmanuel—God with us.
