TODAY the medley of outward life has made a perplexity of inward life. We moderns have ruffled our old incertitudes to an absurd point--incertitudes that are older than theology. Whence are these writings--these emotions--these profound pages of wisdom? You might as well inquire, whence is human nature? The fact is--they are. It isn't as though you can compare this literature with any other, as you might compare the French Romanticists with the Russian school.
The origin of evil is clearly and concisely explained. It substantiates the truths of Christianity, Christian Science and all other religions and philosophies. It also shows how man evolves from the animal and becomes not man, child of God, until endowed with a soul.
The Bible code--the ancient code encrypted in the Bible that may reveal the future--was made known to the world by investigative reporter Drosnin. Now he reveals startling new predictions warning that society may have only three years to stop the countdown to Armageddon.
Many of the Catholic faith are familiar with the Book of Baruch in the Catholic Bibles and the Apocrypha, but few are acquainted with the apocalyptical writings of Baruch which are more far-reaching in their scope.
From Ancient Manuscripts At the Vatican of Rome and The Sergio Library at Constantinople : Curious scripture related manuscripts translated. Pseudo-Apocryphal Literature.
One of the longest books removed from the government "authorized" Bibles, some references to Jasher were forgotten. For example: "Is not this written in the Book of Jasher?" Joshua 10:13; "Behold, it is written in the Book of Jasher." 2 Sam 1:18. Fascinating. How many of these books and manuscripts were denounced, banned, cursed, no doubt burned and shredded-and last but not least, lost (and conveniently forgotten) for a thousand years. But with an uncanny persistence, the Book of Jasher has found its way back into circulation.
Ancient and Forgotten Manuscript of Tea Tephi. This manuscript evidences a new light on the theory of British Israelism. Perhaps the Hebrews came to Ireland hudreds, perhaps a thousand years before modern accounts states.
The oldest Biblical manuscripts in existence, the Dead Sea Scrolls were found in caves near Jerusalem in 1947, only to be kept a tightly held secret for nearly fifty more years, until the Huntington Library unleashed a storm of controversy in 1991 by releasing copies of the Scrolls.
One of the most enlightened and exhaustive studies into the Bhagavad Gita, especially for the European and Western mindset.
The Book of Life -- or the akashic records -- is the storehouse of all information for every soul who has ever lived on earth. This major work provides examples of how we can tap into our records -- our past lives, our present experiences, and our unfolding futures -- and create that destiny.
Ignatius, who also called himself Theophorus ("bearer of God"), was most likely a disciple of both Apostles Peter and John. Ignatius is generally considered to be one of the Apostolic Fathers (the earliest authoritative group of the Church Fathers) and a saint by both the Roman Catholics, who celebrate his feast day on October 17, and the Orthodox and Eastern Catholic churches, who celebrate his feast day on December 20. Ignatius based his authority on living his life in imitation of Christ.
To those not familiar with the subject it may be stated that the bulk of its contents is derived from the old Buddhist canon. Many passages, and indeed the most important ones, are literally copied in translations from the original texts. Some are rendered rather freely in order to make them intelligible to the present generation; others have been rearranged; and still others are abbreviated.
