Title: Is Fox in Bed with the Devil?
Topic: Bad Things on Television

Discussed by John Horvat
with Return to Order www.ReturnToOrder.org

Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness, who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter! Isaiah 5:20

A new TV series starting in January on Fox is all about Lucifer. The goal of the series is to paint Lucifer as a “victim of a tyrant God” and a “charming friend to all mankind”, according to John Horvat, author of Return to Order. In the show, Lucifer refers to God like this: “Hey, he’s my father, not yours. I can say whatever I want about the guy. I quit Hell because I was sick and tired of playing a part in Dad’s plan. I believe in free will, not the tyranny of all his predestination hoo-ha.”

John says all Christians should boycott Fox Television over the show “Lucifer”. The devil is surely dancing in Hell over the lies that are sure to spread far and wide about him. To sign your name to the petition to stop Fox from airing “Lucifer”, click here.

Please do not sit aside and allow Fox to get away with spreading lies to people who don’t know the real truth. Signing the petition is easy and quick. Just a few clicks at the link above and you’re done! And don’t forget to share the link on Facebook and Twitter. If people do not know about it, they cannot stop it. Please don’t let the devil win this one. Spread the truth for God!
