This book is the first book written by Omega Ministry, the reason why it is called the "Messenger of Time and Space" series because it was inspired by visions and dreams that I received—entirely from the Heavenly Father.Sometime back in 2012, a prophet named Patricia in Toronto prophesied about writing a book, saying that it would be revealed to the world. However, it wasn't until ten years later that I began writing. “Who Is Battling for Earth—The Clash of Spiritual Warfare” is the first book of the “Messenger of Time and Space” series.I never knew that in another dimension, another time and space, Someone had been watching, observing, protecting, and silently loving me all along, guarding me secretly. My life, which was nothing but a speck of dust among the multitudes, like a drop of water in the ocean—ordinary and unremarkable—became legendary due to Someone's intervention.How our story began – one day my world collided with His, and at a certain point in time, He (God) crossed time

本書特色Analyzing authors by analyzing the words they use;Revealing the person behind the pages by revealing the condition of language.序【Acknowledgements】 I want to thank Mr. Michael Song, the President of Showwe Publisher (Taipei, Taiwan), for his encouragement and his thoughtfulness. My thanks also go to Irene Cheng and Lestat Yin for making this book possible.【Preface】 The initial idea of writing such a book on the condition of language comes from a question, which was asked by Jean-Paul Sartre in his book, What is Literature? In fact, Sartre truly wanted to ask himself and the readers, this essential question - 'What is Writing'? In Sartre's Words, again, he mentioned the way in which Charles Schweitzer was 'amazed' (Sartre 89) by the French language. In some ways, Schweitzer did not consider himself 'as a writer' - he 'played' with the language, and yet, 'had not quite made it his own' (Sartre 89). Sartre's words indicate that to write in a specific language - as a writer - firstl
