En participant aux jeux de la machine, dont les gagnants rejoignent la caste des nantis sur Vénus, Gilbert Gosseyn découvre qu'il n'est pas l'homme qu'il a toujours cru être.

Revelation 12:9 says, “the whole world has been deceived.” And 2 Corinthians 4:4 says, “the god of this world has blinded the minds.” Not just unbelievers — the entire human race. None of us have had true fellowship with God because we were unaware that the Lord and His Word are encrypted. That's why there are so many religions. This deception includes the churches that clutter our cities and the universities that call themselves wise. Too many pastors point to verses about heaven and hell and insist their religion is the narrow gate (Matt. 7:14). That's false. What we've done is...
