Book description
To the outside world, Opus Dei's stated intention is 'to remind all
people that they are called to holiness, especially through work and
ordinary life'. But with an elite membership of 80,000 and tentacles
reaching around the globe, this secretive sect within the Catholic
Church has far greater potential influence.
In recent years it has come under criticism from within the Catholic
Church and from authorities in the countries where it operates,
revealing a more sinister intention: to confront Islam on the world's
spiritual battlefields, by whatever means necessary.
Their Kingdom Come demonstrates how Opus Dei has forged an
unholy alliance with the Mafia, secular powerbrokers and highly placed
prelates, with the result that Christian values are being threatened
by the malign influences of power politics and big money.
Opus Dei's command council runs an immense intelligence network and
a vast multinational conglomerate, preparing for what the organisation
regards as Christendom's inevitable showdown with radical Islam...
