The starkest picture of the interminable suffering came from Hattie’s ordeal at the Tribulation Force’s safe house in Mount Prospect, Illinois. Her torment was so great that everyone—Rayford, Tsion, Chloe, and Floyd—begged her to give in to Christ. Despite her anguished screams at all hours of the day and night, she stubbornly maintained that she was getting what she deserved and no less.
Hard to find a better example of the authors using Hattie as an example to be flogged and humiliated for her sin of promiscuity. She suffers for five months without relief, declaring that she deserves it. There are two kinds of people in the world: people who call these books misogynistic, those who have not read them.
