Jensen's explanation was interesting to say the least. So the Beast would carry out the will of Satan? What exactly was the will of Satan? He had no idea, but he doubted it was good, and that was enough for him.
He also wondered what the text that pre-dated the Bible meant, was it confirmation of the Bible or its undoing? Did it speak of the same God or proved it was copied material; a borrowed addition from an earlier era?
Of course, Tony did not ask Jensen. He had no wish to question the man's faith. It amounted to the same thing, if they were true - death and destruction - and he would not destroy anyone's spirit because of it; it would be needed.
He gave Jensen an encouraging smile to match the man's doubtful one. "I won't lie, I am not sure I believe that the source of all evil will wreak havoc upon the world,"
his tone took the edge off any traces of ridicule the words may have implied. "But the world is a dangerous place for us right now, and there is no harm in preparation, eh?"
Tony gave Jensen a friendly clap on the shoulder, then his lips turned down. "Are you sure you are ready? It will mean I must teach you how to kill as well as heal. I won't tell you how to use that knowledge, but it will be essential - possibly the difference between life and death, not just for yourself, but your family."
