This book is a quest to look at the history of mankind to answer questions that humans wondered about for centuries. What does God want from us? Why are there so many religions? Who did the ancients worship if it wasn't God? This book is a quest through history, religion, and science to answer these questions and more. It will prove beyond any doubt that there is a creator and he's one and the message he's been sending through the times using prophets and messengers is one and the same. Religions are used to teach people common values that will help them coexist in peace. Unfortunately, humans used it to launch wars against each other in the name of God. Each one wants to prove that their religion is the only one that God accepts and recognizes. God created us equal but different.

This book will take you on a journey into the history of mankind, where no man has gone before. It will answer questions humans have been asking for centuries. Questions such as: What's God's role in our history? Who are Adam and Eve? Were they a result of a natural evolution or a revolution? Who was the woman Cain married, and who are her people? Who are the Angels, and what world did they come from? Are they among us today? Why did the Exodus occur? Who was the Pharaoh? Why Christianity, Islam, Judaism, and the Eastern religions, in other words why religion? Why the races? Where did they come from? Who's behind these religions? What does God want from us? In this book, I will provide unconventional answers, to all these questions and more. The reader is guaranteed new ideas, and conclusions in the matter of our history, religion, and our raison d'être. All the evidence furnished in this book is based on scientific, historical, and religious books, besides logic. We will walk together through history, with a lot of emphasis on the Old Testament, the New Testament, and the Koran, along with some other religious books. Through this journey, I will present to you an alternative explanation of history, different than what we were led to believe from our history books. This will shed some light on what we are, who we are, and what's our purpose of existence. My goal is to show you there's a higher power that controls our lives, and our destinies, for an ultimate purpose. After examining all the evidence I will provide, I hope you will come to the same conclusions I did. There was a beginning, and there shall be an end. Together we will examine historical facts, which will prove my theories. My ideas became more concentrated in the last six years, when I started getting heavily interested in history, and I was exposed to information in science and religion. People think science and the idea of a God don't match, on the contrary, if there is a God, then He is the one that invented science. Science must prove His existence or not. I found points that link the three together. A new revelation came to me of what the real history is, and the truth behind it. To my amazement, I found all the things I've talked about through the years were coming together, and everything became clearer to me. I saw through a lens of a camera, an upside down picture of our history. Things were not as it seemed. Going back in history was an attempt to understand what God really wanted from us. I had to find out for myself. Did He really leave us without religious guidance, from the start of humanity until Jesus? With the exception of Moses and the Hebrew people, God forgot or didn't care about the rest of the humans? I hope my findings I laid down in this book, will help uncover the truth. We know what we know, because someone taught us the science behind our knowledge. We found what we found, because someone allowed us to find it. The danger arises when people come to believe their belief is the only true one. They believe they're the only ones who understand God and His wishes, and therefore, they have the right to act in support of that belief. They try to impose their belief on others by any means available to them. Religion has been gaining a lot of ground in the last few years. Elections have been won and lost, not because of your political stance or confidence, but rather on your religious beliefs. Under which divine laws, do the gods of Egypt be exempted from insults? This is the question to ask. Anyone who feels he's higher than the Almighty Himself, or his Prophet, or even the Khalifa Omar, has the right to be exempted from insults. Otherwise, step aside. God and His Prophet allowed people Freedom of Speech. This means the freedom to say anything they want, with no risk of earthly punishment. Who are you to take that freedom from them? God and His prophet gave the people the freedom of belief, worship, and speech!

His book is essential reading for anyone who wonders about the deepest questions of all: why are we here? How did we get here? And what does life mean?

While Islamic theology differs from Christianity's, Muslims and Christians hold Jesus Christ in high esteem. He is a central figure in both religions, loved, admired, respected, and revered. Both Muslims and Christians believe in Jesus' virgin birth, ability to perform miracles and return at the end of time. However, both religions differ in Christ's nature and life occurrences. While Christians accept Jesus Christ as the divine Son of God, Muslims take him as a human and one of God's mighty noble Messengers sent to relay God's Message to his people, just as many past Prophets did. This book encourages Christians and non-Muslims alike to cross-examine what the Bible and Jesus Christ state about God, His message to humanity, the nature of Jesus Christ, and related concepts. If done sincerely, one should conclude that neither Jesus Christ nor the Bible teaches what the Church teaches today. One concludes that Jesus Christ and the Bible never mention Jesus Christ as the Son of God, part of the Trinity, nor did they teach the concepts of crucifixion, redemption, or permission to abandon the law of the Prophet Moses PBUH. Many well-intentioned Christians follow modern Christianity, a corrupted version of the teachings of Jesus Christ - those he never preached nor taught. This book provides irrefutable proof from the Bible and common logic that Allah is our Creator, and Jesus Christ was a Muslim and human Prophet sent to the nation before us, the Children of Israel. It provides irrefutable evidence from the Bible that the Revelation of Jesus Christ was tampered with by humans after his departure and that the Bible we read today is not the inspired Word of God. One must use their God-given gift of intellect and logic to investigate, ponder, and reflect without allowing their emotions and cultural biases to cloud their judgment, blindly following their Church. To my dear Christian, you must research and know the reality of Jesus Christ and his message so you may be guided to God, enter Paradise eternally, and avoid the ultimate punishment. Topics in the book include: Understanding the Concept of God Sending Messengers to Relay His Message Basic Understanding of the Similarities and Differences Between Islam, Christianity, & Judaism Who is Allah? Whom Are Jesus Christ and Mary PBUT? Whom Was Jesus Christ Sent to Address? What Was His Mission? Did He Come with a New Law as Christians Claim? Is Jesus God, Son of God, or Prophet of God? What does the Bible Say? Trinity Crucial Differences Between God & Jesus Christ Who is the Author of the Bible? Does the Bible Contain Errors & Contradictions? Pornography, Incest, & Immorality in the Bible Is Jesus Christ God Because He was Born With no Father? Christians Claim Jesus Christ is Divine, and his Ability to Perform Miracles is Proof The Bible Labels Jesus Christ as 'The Son of God' Son of Man' 'Lord' 'His Servant' 'The Father and I are one' 'For There are Three That Bear Record in Heaven' The Word 'Begotten' in the Bible 'I am the way and the truth and the life' The Role of Paul in Christianity and How He Destroyed the Teachings of Jesus Christ Paganism on Christianity Atonement Was Jesus Christ Crucified?

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.

A gripping story of how an entire family, deeply enmeshed in Mormonism for thirty years, found their way out and found faith in Jesus Christ. For thirty years, Lynn Wilder, once a tenured faculty member at Brigham Young University, and her family lived in, loved, and promoted the Mormon Church. Then their son Micah, serving his Mormon mission in Florida, had a revelation: God knew him personally. God loved him. And the Mormon Church did not offer the true gospel. Micah's conversion to Christ put the family in a tailspin. They wondered, Have we believed the wrong thing for decades? If we leave Mormonism, what does this mean for our safety, jobs, and relationships? Is Christianity all that different from Mormonism anyway? As Lynn tells her story of abandoning the deception of Mormonism to receive God's grace, she gives a rare look into Mormon culture, what it means to grow up Mormon, and why the contrasts between Mormonism and Christianity make all the difference in the world. Whether you are in the Mormon Church, are curious about Mormonism, or simply are looking for a gripping story, Unveiling Grace will strengthen your faith in the true God who loves you no matter what.

The purpose of this book is to bring truth as to who God The Father is and who we really are in Christ. Knowing who you are allows you to take back your power and authority over the God of this world—Yahweh. God The Father of Christ and all creation is not the God of this world (John 18:36). The Father gave man dominion over the earth (Genesis 1:26–28); through man's sin, power and authority was transferred to Satan/Lucifer. The Father cast Lucifer out of heaven down to the earth (Isaiah 14:12–14) vowed to be worshipped as God the Most High, the Father. Lucifer deceives the whole world (Revelation 12:9) into believing he is God The Father of Christ. The world is looking for this deception to occur in the future. In this book, I prove biblically this deception has already occurred twenty-five hundred years ago when Yahweh freed the Jews out of Egypt. Yahweh declares he is the God of the Jews ever since the land of Egypt and there is no other savior but him (Hosea 13:4). Before this, who was Yahweh? Our minds have been blinded by two thousand years of corrupt and false teachings that were set in place to maintain Yahweh's power and control over this world. Jesus Christ came into this world to tell the Jews the god they're worshipping—Yahweh is not God The Father. The Jews killed Jesus to save the Jewish nation (John 11:50–53) as His message would have completely destroyed the nation; this truth brought division within families. The Jews, with the help of Paul, gathered the children of Christ, grafting them into Yahweh's kingdom under the pretense that Yahweh is the Father of Christ, knowing he is the fallen angel Lucifer. The Father gave man markers to identify Lucifer and his fallen angels. One marker—they are chained in darkness. Yahweh always appears to men in thick darkness: Moses, Solomon, David, and the prophets. Yahweh/Jehovah is the god and ruler of this world, so the only way God The Father could help man was to be born into Yahweh's kingdom here on earth. Yahweh demanded shedding of blood—an innocent blood sacrifice for the forgiveness of sin. Jesus followed all of Yahweh's laws and statutes perfectly; He was sinless. Jesus gave himself to be man's blood sacrifice to appease Yahweh's wrath upon man. God the Father is perfect love; He is displeased with blood sacrifice of any kind. He told the Jews to stop but they continued making sacrifices to their God—Yahweh (Isaiah 66:3, Hosea 6:6–9). God the Father says killing of bulls and goats does not take away sin (Hebrews 10:4–6 ). I prove through scripture that Yahweh is not the loving God The Father of Christ. Yahweh does not have the Holy Spirit of the Father; therefore, he cannot create, he cannot raise the dead, and he cannot heal the sick. Yahweh needs the Father's Holy Spirit that is in all men to maintain his world construct; without it, this world would collapse. Yahweh keeps all men's souls in bondage and imprisoned here within the earth through sin and reincarnation; our spirit is recycled over and over till the day of judgment. Jesus came to teach us how to break free from Yahweh's matrix, being brought into God The Father's kingdom of light in the third heaven. Yahweh/Jehovah is the God of this world; his realm is the heavens directly above the earth and our planetary system. God the Father and Christ dwells in the third heaven aka the pleroma where there is no time, gravity, or matter. All things created emanate from the Father, Who is perfect love. He loves all His creation equally, so He has no favorites; no judgment or wrath towards His creation. This world is worshipping Yahweh; who comes from the Creator/God the Father. Yahweh is a jealous, angry, wrathful god that wants you to fear him. God the Father is the father of all things created; all things emanate from the Father so who can He be jealous of? Nothing. We are now living in the end times. Yahweh is doing everything in his power to corrupt God The Father's creation using all men of power having one agenda—to control the whole world through one world religion, one world government, and one world currency. In this book, I give you the tools needed to escape Yahweh's kingdom of condemnation, death, and destruction.

Selected by the Modern Library as one of the 100 best nonfiction books of all time The Gnostic Gospels is a landmark study of the long-buried roots of Christianity, a work of luminous scholarship and wide popular appeal. First published in 1979 to critical acclaim, winning the National Book Award and the National Book Critics Circle Award, The Gnostic Gospels has continued to grow in reputation and influence over the past two decades. It is now widely recognized as one of the most brilliant and accessible histories of early Christian spirituality published in our time. In 1945 an Egyptian peasant unearthed what proved to be the Gnostic Gospels, thirteen papyrus volumes that expounded a radically different view of the life and teachings of Jesus Christ from that of the New Testament. In this spellbinding book, renowned religious scholar Elaine Pagels elucidates the mysteries and meanings of these sacred texts both in the world of the first Christians and in the context of Christianity today. With insight and passion, Pagels explores a remarkable range of recently discovered gospels, including the Gospel of Thomas and the Gospel of Mary Magdalene, to show how a variety of “Christianities” emerged at a time of extraordinary spiritual upheaval. Some Christians questioned the need for clergy and church doctrine, and taught that the divine could be discovered through spiritual search. Many others, like Buddhists and Hindus, sought enlightenment—and access to God—within. Such explorations raised questions: Was the resurrection to be understood symbolically and not literally? Was God to be envisioned only in masculine form, or feminine as well? Was martyrdom a necessary—or worthy—expression of faith? These early Christians dared to ask questions that orthodox Christians later suppressed—and their explorations led to profoundly different visions of Jesus and his message. Brilliant, provocative, and stunning in its implications, The Gnostic Gospels is a radical, eloquent reconsideration of the origins of the Christian faith.
