Book Description
The Hebrew-Christian religion remains the most potent verifiably truthful religion on the planet. It suffers horrendously from murderous oppression in the Middle East, its homeland; and was crushed-flat by the largest political State the world has ever known (Soviet Russia); and it endures heavy disheartenment by flawed innuendo and secularisation throughout Europe. Despite these massive attacks from mistaken religion, hard-line atheists, and dont know-cant be bothered groups yet it remains. And more than this: It remains, philosophically, socially, prophetically, and scientifically the largest, most credible and consistent belief-system on the planet. Its not by accident that non-violent Christianity (believing in the non-violent Ten Commandments and the beautiful spirit of them in the Beatitudes), can survive such intense mentalphysical violent persecution and still remain so vibrant. True Christians know: The only reason it is so, is because the holy Messiah God of Israel is the only true God. He rules over all the kingdoms of men, but its only the kingdom of Christianity which knows this. He loves all humans (but not their thoughtsactions). However only Christians recognise this and sincerely give thanks that He is their God, their prophet, priest and king. He prophesied that enormous ungodliness would come against His church, and followers but these gates of hell would not overcome it, and so it is now, as we head towards Armageddon and the end of the human age. This book explains His prophecies, and associated key milestone calculations. This is one of many ways, witnessing that He is the genuine-unique-article, just as the Hebrew-Christian Bible says. The purpose of our existence is to have a loving relationship with Him. When humans choose to reject Him it causes us to create corrupt and false gods. Without realising it, many religious people worship corrupt gods, and atheism worships its false no-God god. These cannot bring a person into the paradise of fruitful everlasting life their ways effectively bring people into a fruitless everlasting living-death. This grieves the Messiah God of Israel because He loves fruitful life. To encourage us and to verify who He is He leaves indicators throughout history, evidencing even now, in these days of the deeply sceptical cheating spirit that humans are without excuse, come the judgement. Lawrence D. Shawbrooks is now retired but continues to work as an Elder in the Church oversight.

Book Description
A startling exploration of the history of the most controversial book of the Bible, by the bestselling author of Beyond Belief. Through the bestselling books of Elaine Pagels, thousands of readers have come to know and treasure the suppressed biblical texts known as the Gnostic Gospels. As one of the world's foremost religion scholars, she has been a pioneer in interpreting these books and illuminating their place in the early history of Christianity. Her new book, however, tackles a text that is firmly, dramatically within the New Testament canon: The Book of Revelation, the surreal apocalyptic vision of the end of the world . . . or is it? In this startling and timely book, Pagels returns The Book of Revelation to its historical origin, written as its author John of Patmos took aim at the Roman Empire after what is now known as "the Jewish War," in 66 CE. Militant Jews in Jerusalem, fired with religious fervor, waged an all-out war against Rome's occupation of Judea and their defeat resulted in the desecration of Jerusalem and its Great Temple. Pagels persuasively interprets Revelation as a scathing attack on the decadence of Rome. Soon after, however, a new sect known as "Christians" seized on John's text as a weapon against heresy and infidels of all kinds-Jews, even Christians who dissented from their increasingly rigid doctrines and hierarchies. In a time when global religious violence surges, Revelations explores how often those in power throughout history have sought to force "God's enemies" to submit or be killed. It is sure to appeal to Pagels's committed readers and bring her a whole new audience who want to understand the roots of dissent, violence, and division in the world's religions, and to appreciate the lasting appeal of this extraordinary text.

Book Description
Most Bible students are aware of the use of numbers in scripture. The number 7 is a prime example, with its connotations of perfection and completeness. The study of numbers as used in the Bible is infrequent, and the Lord's people, therefore, miss some of that which is profitable for correction and instruction in the Word of God. This volume goes a long way toward correcting the deficiency by providing a great introduction to the subject and showing that these patterns provide proof of the completeness and inspiration of the Holy Scriptures. The reader will find profit as well as inspiration from this intriguing study.

Book Description
Theories of evolution, origin of the Universe, and deep time, have led many scientists like my former self, to conclude that Creation is just a chance sequence of events that can ultimately be explained by natural laws. I was skeptical and even tried to disprove God's existence, until I found a Secret Code embedded in the Scriptures. This code provides undeniable evidence of God, based upon event sequences in the lives of a Great Cloud of Witnesses like Joseph, Samson, David, Jonah, Elisha, Moses, and Joshua. By unlocking the Earthly Sanctuary pattern given to Moses, I've found that it reveals events of the Exodus from Egypt to the Promised Land which even applies to Spiritual Israel today. The veil to the Holy Place aligns with the Exodus opening of the Red Sea. And the veil to the Holiest Place points to the opening of the Jordan where we now stand, waiting to cross at the End of Time. The code reveals probabilities of the existence of God, far greater than finding an atom in Planet Earth by chance.

Book Description
Will 2012 bring in the End of Times? With there be a great Battle or Apocalypse? What is the real truth behind the Book of Revelations? Many people both Christian and non-Christians alike have talked about what is revealed in the Book of Revelations. Some say it is an End of Times prophecy, others it is merely a dream or child's bedtime story. In The Book of Revelation Code Dr. Greszczyszyn displaces any mystery and reveals the only truth behind what Johns' revelation and Book of Revelations truly means for everyone. More than another spiritual interpretation, higher than some yogis idea of New Age Thought, the revelations shared within The Book of Revelation Code is simple enough that a child could read, with ideas so powerful and advanced that mystics, first century through present-time disciples of Christianity, theologists and spiritualists all can understand the truth behind what Satan is, why Satan was incorrectly given the number 666, how so many people are mistaken about the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse and what Fire, Brimstone and Second Death truly describe. More than a book, The Book of Revelation Code is a masterpiece in religious and spiritual truth.

Book Description
In Revelation John is given an enigmatic vision which is filled with apocalyptic world events to take place just prior to the return of Christ. Therefore for centuries countless scholars have attempted to interpret the dream and reveal when these future events would come to fruition. But because of its vague and confusing scenarios, they were left perplexed and could only speculate and theorize as to what John was attempting to convey in his prophecy. This writing begins by comparing the stone coffer in the Great Pyramid to the Bibles lost Ark of the Covenant, and in doing so many astounding revelations are brought to light. But when I focus solely on the pyramid itself I stumble across a cryptic clue. And once I unravel its hidden mystery, a 15,000 year old secret is revealed that connects the Great Pyramid to God, the Holy Bible, and Christ, and leads me straight to the book of Revelation in which for the first time ever, Johns vision is revealed. Upon reading this book you will understand that the reason for the ambiguity of Johns vision was because it was not meant to be interpreted until the end of time was at hand. But moreover, you will learn the location of the mysterious city of Babylon; the location of the bottomless pit; when the Antichrist will enter into the world from out of the pit; how and from where he will rise to power; who will crown him as a king; and of his greatest miracle that will deceive many nations into believing he is the risen Christ. But most imperative; you will learn that because Johns vision has been revealed in advance, that at present its a prophecy in the form of a warning, but also, that if this warning is not heeded, it is soon to become one of destiny.
