Book Description
Whilst we measurably dissent from a number of the conclusions which Knollys has derived from the Book of Revelation; we nevertheless align ourselves with the overall analysis, viz., that the Roman Catholic Institution has been, from its pagan roots and throughout its accursed history, in its masquerade of what the world calls Christianity, the greatest enemy of the true Gospel in existence, a black plaque indeed, which the Lord - the Righteous Judge - hath poured forth upon the inhabitants of the earth; and though veiled by popish priestcraft & religious confusion to the paramount glory of Christ in the Gospel to all that are given over to succumb to its spiritual harlotry, and drink of her intoxicating mixtures; yet this beast like that of the false prophet of counterfeit Christianity will be exposed and stripped bare of all his purple & scarlet attire to the Spirit instructed mind & contrite heart of every penitent sinner who has come out of this accursed system; and fled to Christ.

Mythical Creatures and Magical Beasts
Author: Zayden Stone
Publisher:
ISBN:

Languages : en
Pages : 186
Book Description
What made Athena furious with a local weaver that she transformed her into Greek mythology's first spider woman, Arachne? What is the tall tale behind Filipino folklore's sea serpent Bakunawa, who flies through the night skies devouring moons? What is the symbolism behind French folktale's infamous night rider, Cheval Mallet? We have all been exposed to a mythological beast in one form or another. Whether it is the three headed guard dog Fluffy in J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter series, or even the story of Smaug in J.R.R. Tolkien's Middle Earth in The Hobbit; all these pop culture mythical creatures have a deep connection to the mythologies and folktales of ancient cultures. Where did they come from? What relevance do they serve in mythology? Why are some so obscure, while others become pop-culture enigmas? Get the answer to these questions, and learn about beasts from different world cultures. Folklorist Zayden Stone dives deep into the stories of these magical beasts and provides a fictional anecdote, a retelling of the original myths, an analysis of the symbolism and relevance of the creatures, and then pairs it with some beautiful black and white illustrations reimagined by artist Herdhian. In the Mythical Creatures and Mythological Beasts book, the illustrated guide takes you through six themes that have been specifically chosen since they are consistent across cultures. The categories include: arthropods for insects, crustaceans, and arachnids; avian for birds; canines for wolves and dogs; serpents for snakes and dragons; ungulates for hooved animals like horses and cows; and aquatic for water dwelling beasts. Presenting the creatures in categories makes it easier to see what the beasts have in common. You will find some overlapping themes across ancient cultures that point to universal ideas in how humans perceive the world. If you wonder where your favorite creature is, you will probably find them within these pages, even if they do not have their own chapter. For example, the ever-popular Pegasus can be found in the tale of the Gorgon sisters. He also had a half-brother, Arion, who features in the ungulates section. There is also a brilliant white-winged horse from Islamic tradition which may sound very familiar to Pegasus as well. If you have a love for the myths and want to learn about the unique beasts that dwell within them, this book is a great way to do it. Not only will you learn about ones you may have never heard of, but you will also be able to draw parallels between cultures and see how they interpreted their surroundings through stories of mythical creatures and magical beasts.

The Unveiling
Author: R. Jeff Collene
Publisher: WestBow Press
ISBN:
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 432
Book Description
Applying all seven keys introduced in Book 1 of The Unveiling: The Book of Sevens, we now open The Seven Visions revealing seven facets of a comprehensive revelation. The goal is to bring understanding to the Book of Revelation that is readable, devotional, and applicable. The intent is to bring hope and light on this perplexing and rarely taught book. The Revelation is not intended to be an indecipherable enigma, it is not meant to puzzle and bewilder but to disclose God’s plan, purpose, and provision to His bond servants. Therefore, to that end, the purpose is to bring the authors comments on each facet of The Revelation to the reader with these goals in mind. The Book of Revelation is unveiled as a seven faceted jewel. The seven visions of the Book of Revelation open to God’s bond servants the insight and encouragement needed to persevere until He comes. It reveals the fulfillment of old testament prophecy with Israel’s Great Day of the Lord in 70 AD while in these same visions reveals the cataclysmic end of this age. These two tracks of judgment bring to a conclusion the “former days” and introduce “these last days” as prophetically revealed throughout Scripture. “Blessed is he who reads and those who hear the words of the prophecy, and heed the things which are written in it; for the time is near.” (Revelation 1:3)

Unveiling Three Parts of Babylon
Author: William C. Taggart III PhD
Publisher: LifeRich Publishing
ISBN: 1489741607
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 342
Book Description
This second book of the Unveiling Series, Unveiling Three Parts of Babylon, by Dr. William C. Taggart III, offers a biblical study based on Revelation 16:19 where the kingdom of Satan, portrayed as the great city Babylon, falls into three parts. The author noted that in Revelation 18:4, the saints are urged to leave Babylon to avoid her plagues, Jeremiah 51: 35, 49. That the Satanic kingdom is portrayed biblically in three parts in Revelation 16:19, makes it imperative that the saints have a biblical understanding of those three parts to exit the Satanic kingdom completely. A correct biblical understanding of the three parts of Babylon is essential to the fleeing saints as they seek to escape the Satanic influences in all its forms. Unveiling Three Parts of Babylon continues the Unveiling Series by further biblically developing the three parts of Babylon which initially was presented by the author’s doctoral dissertation through corrections made and additional analysis. This second book not only exposes more fully the kingdom of Satan but encourages the successful exit of all humanity from the Babylonian entanglements of all three parts, Revelation 18:4.
