When the Almond Tree Blossoms


Book Description

David Aikman, former senior foreign correspondent for Time magazine, first published When the Almond Tree Blossoms in 1993, as the Cold War ended and political polarization grew in the United States. Twenty-three years later, his novel is as timely as ever. The 2016 presidential election pits unabashed socialists and jaded capitalists against each other, and the nation seems more politically polarized than it's been since the Civil War. This book is a reminder of what's at stake: not only freedom, but life and peace. It's 1998 in this alternative timeline. The US is controlled by a radical, collectivist regime bent on maintaining control despite a growing nuclear threat from the resistance. Douglas Richfield supported the People's Movement early on and now participates in its regime as an assistant adviser for protocol. He's known as an \"activist\" and a \"progressive,\" but he's not entirely at ease with the movement he's always supported. Limitations on freedom of speech, along with military police brutality, give him pause. A conversation with a beautiful stranger only increases his confusion. Perhaps the People's Movement regime is neither as secure nor as noble as he once thought. Just as these doubts begin to form, the regime takes him out of his comfortable office job and into the field, where he must choose once and for all whether his loyalties lie with the People's Movement or the Constitutionalist resistance. Aikman addresses world politics, secret agendas, and ultimately biblical prophecy in this thriller.

The Mysterious Mist


Book Description

This book I started in 2013, and with some interruptions, I finished the book by March 2016. It is a study or commentary on the book of Genesis. Having this book, I realized how important it is and I found many mysteries. After the book of Revelation and Daniel, this is the third book full of mysteries followed by the book of Isaiah. Starting with Genesis 2:6, we get an idea of a mist or steam that came out from the ground that telling the earth was ready for the life to start. Then later on, we can figure out another kind of mist is coming out from the ground. From Genesis 19:27""28. Therefore from Abraham's point of view, things look different. Sodom and Gomorrah describes a different picture of a smoke coming out from the ground. During the history of the world, we see different mists coming from God to bless the earth. The strongest and the last one is found in the book of 2 Peter 3:10. "But the day of the Lord will come as unexpectedly as a thief. Then the heavens will pass away with a terrible noise, and the very elements themselves will disappear in fire, and the earth and everything on it will be found to deserve judgment." With this last image of mist/steam ending up this planet too, giving room to the new heavens and the new earth that will never need any steam or mist or smoke.




Esoteric Mysteries of the Underworld


Book Description

A comprehensive guide to the ancient beliefs and spiritual power of subterranean spaces • Examines in depth the myths, symbology, deities, and beliefs connected to the underworld from many different cultures and mystery traditions • Investigates the role of the underworld in initiatory rites and mystical practices, such as the Orphic Mysteries, the chambers of reflections in Freemasonry, the cult of the Black Madonna, and the cult of Isis • Discusses the telluric currents that run through ley lines, the significance of underground waterways, Hollow Earth theory, and the denizens of the subterranean realms, such as dragons, gnomes, and dwarfs Ancient cultures around the world understood the spiritual powers of the underworld. For millennia, natural caves and caverns were turned into sacred underground temples and, from holy mountains and cliffs, churches were beautifully carved into solid rock. Offering a guide to the spiritual energies that flourish beneath the surface of the Earth, Jean-Pierre Bayard explores the esoteric mysteries of the underworld, including the symbolic significance of caves, caverns, and underground temples. He examines in depth the myths, symbology, deities, and beliefs connected to the underworld from many different cultures and mystery traditions, from ancient Egypt to Scandinavia and Europe to the Middle East and India. He investigates the role of the underworld in initiatory rites, such as the Orphic Mysteries and Christ’s descent into hell, revealing that at the heart of these teachings is the transformative power of a hero’s descent into and return from the underworld. The author connects the esoteric attributes of the world below with the cult of the Black Madonna and the earlier cult of Isis. He discusses the telluric currents that run through ley lines, the significance of underground waterways, the esoteric properties of gems and stones, and the “mineral blood” of the alchemists. He also looks at Hollow Earth theory and the denizens of the subterranean realms, such as dragons, gnomes, and dwarfs. Explaining how the Earth is the womb of the world, Bayard shows how initiatic descent into the sacred subterranean realms reflects the descent of spirit into matter and its slow crystallization. By entering the body of the Earth Mother we are transformed, initiated into primordial wisdom and reborn as spiritual beings.

We won't be going to heaven (John 3:13), but heaven is coming to us (Rev. 21:2-5) Where will you be during the Great Tribulation? A great many people assume that ""the church"" will be spared the anguish of the Tribulation by being ""raptured"" into heaven. Others believe that ""the church"" will flea to a place of safety on earth, such as Petra, but not stay in the ""place"" for the full 1260 days, opting to spend a year in the ""third heaven."" Others plan to be in a place on earth the entire time. Some hope that believers will be protected in their homes as the nations around them are being decimated. Consider the evidence presented here and ask yourself if a Place of Safety is to be directly above us in plain view!
