"Will prove to be indispensable as we fulfill the Great Commission among our African-American brothers and sisters. Whether you reside in the ""hood"" or the ""burbs"", whether you are African American, white, Hispanic, or other, whether God has called you to home missions or foreign missions; you cannot afford to let Steve Tsoukalas's magnificent work sit on the shelf. . . . a must read." Carl F. Ellis Jr.

"Steven Tsoukalas has done an excellent job in documenting one of the most controversial and dangerous Black cults to ever penetrate the Black community. This book is a masterpiece theologically. It provides a comprehensive critique and theological analysis of the Nation of Islam from a Christian perspective. This book is an invaluable tool for understanding one of the most serious threats to the Black community in recent times." Dr. Jerry L. Buckner
