With a surprising number of people professing a belief that we are living in the Biblical End Times, this lively 1902 deconstruction of the Book of Revelation is even more relevant than ever. Analyzing the final chapters of the Bible on a verse-by-verse basis-and finding much to be contentious about, particularly when it comes to other interpretations of the book-Bullinger reveals a powerful, devotional way to approach Revelation. British clergyman ETHELBERT WILLIAM BULLINGER (1837-1913) was one of the most respected Bible scholars of the 19th century. He is author of numerous works including Great Cloud of Witnesses and How to Enjoy the Bible.

#1 New York Times Bestseller Oprah's Book Club Selection The “extraordinary . . . monumental masterpiece” (Booklist) that changed the course of Ken Follett’s already phenomenal career—and begins where its prequel, The Evening and the Morning, ended. “Follett risks all and comes out a clear winner,” extolled Publishers Weekly on the release of The Pillars of the Earth. A departure for the bestselling thriller writer, the historical epic stunned readers and critics alike with its ambitious scope and gripping humanity. Today, it stands as a testament to Follett’s unassailable command of the written word and to his universal appeal. The Pillars of the Earth tells the story of Philip, prior of Kingsbridge, a devout and resourceful monk driven to build the greatest Gothic cathedral the world has known . . . of Tom, the mason who becomes his architect—a man divided in his soul . . . of the beautiful, elusive Lady Aliena, haunted by a secret shame . . . and of a struggle between good and evil that will turn church against state and brother against brother. A spellbinding epic tale of ambition, anarchy, and absolute power set against the sprawling medieval canvas of twelfth-century England, this is Ken Follett’s historical masterpiece.

Previously published in hardcover as King's Cross The most influential man to ever walk the earth has had his story told in hundreds of different ways for thousands of years. Can any more be said? Now, Timothy Keller, New York Times bestselling author of The Prodigal Prophet and the man Newsweek called a “C. S. Lewis for the twenty-first century,” unlocks new insights into the life of Jesus Christ as he explores how Jesus came as a king, but a king who had to bear the greatest burden anyone ever has. Jesus the King is Keller’s revelatory look at the life of Christ as told in the Gospel of Mark. In it, Keller shows how the story of Jesus is at once cosmic, historical, and personal, calling each of us to look anew at our relationship with God. It is an unforgettable look at Jesus Christ, and one that will leave an indelible imprint on every reader.

"And in the days of these kings shall the God of heaven set up a kingdom, which shall never be destroyed: and the kingdom shall not be left to other people, but it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand for ever" (Daniel 2:44). The message of Daniel is that Jesus the Messiah is now ruling over the nations. Daniel tells us that Messiah's kingdom will advance in the whole world from "generation to generation" (Daniel 4:4,34). Christ's dominion is "given to the people of the saints of the most High" (Daniel 7:22). Our purpose then is to see "all people, nations, and languages serve and obey him" (Daniel 7:14,27). "This meticulously researched and thorough treatment of Daniel from a preterist perspective includes over 700 pages of commentary, historical background and setting, New Testament allusions, and much more. It is enhanced with charts, tables, maps, illustrations, and topped off with helpful, thorough indexes." - Kenneth L. Gentry, Jr., Th.D.

There is a war taking place for the souls of mankind which the majority fail to see; having been blinkered by a fantasy world of falsehood, materialism and toxic manufactured realities. With this book, I pass judgement on no man. Nor do I attempt to determine the thoughts and sincerity of men, both past and present, whose actions and achievements have impacted world history. I'm just piecing together man's satanic agenda to generate a return to the 'Golden Age.' The New World Order, which will rise like a Phoenix from the ashes of World War III. This includes a re-look at the Genesis creation account, the true design of the Earth, the growth of false religion, the Synagogue of Satan, the coming delusion and certain end-time prophecy.

Alien thieves planned to use our world to transfer stolen gold powder from a parallel world through teleportation since they could not break through the parallel worlds defense. Their test failed, and four found themselves in a world free of diseases, religions, wars, and reach in gold. They appeared in the middle of a great conspiracy that, unavoidable, stroked against them too. Jason Park, a writer with several critical books against religions, believed that the new world was the world we would have had we not been manipulated with religious doctrines. He is also hoping to find some evidence supporting his theories about the history of gods and men. Martin Cane, a famous solicitor, wishes to know everything about the new world as he found the woman, responsible for their security, very attractive. Suzan Cohen, also a solicitor, beside worrying and missing her husband and her little son, William, wishes to see as much as possible hoping to be able to do some shopping. Reverent Paul Garner, at the St. Michael Church in the little city of Micropolis, wishes to return home, away from that ungodly world. Their education and experience led them into different paths of interests. Their appearance, however, becomes a problem for them as well as for the world government. Agents and murderers are chasing them, and they have no idea about who are friends or enemies. The alien gods were interested in the gold of earth using human slaves to dig it. Today, they use dogmatic religions in order to exercise dominion over the human race. This manuscript is a result of research about the origins of man, history, religions, and mythology.
