In the Highest Traditions of the Royal Navy
On 10 December 1941, the Royal Navy battleship HMS Prince of Wales was sunk by Japanese bombers in the South China Sea. Amongst the several hundred men who went down with her was her Captain, John Leach, who had fought against frightful odds and to the very end made the best of an impossible situation with courage and calmness. He truly embodied 'the highest traditions of the Royal Navy'. Author Matthew B. Wills analyses the influences that shaped John Leach and led him ultimately to his heroic end: his time at Royal Naval College Osborne and Britannia Royal Naval College Dartmouth and his baptism of fire when he survived a direct shell hit to the bridge where he was standing. He describes Leach's role in command during the Battle of the Denmark Strait, during which the Prince of Wales inflicted damage on the Bismarck that contributed to her later destruction ΜΆ and then the ill-fated mission to Singapore as part of Force Z, an attempt to intercept Japanese landings in Malaya.

The Battle of the Three Wills
Matthew 28:16-20 16 But the eleven disciples proceeded to Galilee, to the mountain which Jesus had designated. 17 And when they saw him, they worshiped him; but some were doubtful. 18 And Jesus came up and spoke to them, saying, "All authority has been given to me in Heaven and on Earth. 19 "Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, 20 teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo I am with you always, even to the end of the age." I pray that this book will give you a better understanding of The Battle of the Three Wills and carry out my charge of the "Great Commission". I pray for God's will here on earth as it is in Heaven. In Christ name. Amen.

The Two Wills of God - Does God Really Have Two Wills?
Throughout Christian history, hard questions have been deliberated concerning God's will and the manner in which God saves and damns. Understanding God's will and how it theologically functions in relationship to man's salvation can be a daunting task since the Bible is no small book. Answering some of those questions from the Scriptures brings biblical clarity and aids us to understand the glorious God that we serve and the manner in which he deals with men. Have you ever wondered: Does God love only the elect? If God does not desire the wicked to perish, is God's will frustrated when the sinner goes his own way?
