Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What if we had writings directly from Jesus? The Secret Second Coming is a journey into the discovery of one of the most incredible events of our time. A little-known event that, according to Jesus himself, represents his second coming. In the early part of the twentieth century, writings claiming to be by Jesus were received through psicografica (Brazilian for spirit-to-mortal written communications). The mortal was James Padgett, a Washington D.C. attorney and Methodist Sunday school teacher, in his senior years. These messages are introduced in The Secret Second Coming and their authority is thoroughly examined, especially in relation to the authority of the New Testament. How do we know whether or not these messages from Jesus are real? What makes them different from other channeled material? What are the criteria for judging and who decides? What are the origins of Biblical resistance to communication with deceased spirits?Where does true spiritual authority come from and how do you recognize it? In addition to answering these questions, The Secret Second Coming reveals: *convincing evidence of life after death by scientists and lawyers, *that profound knowledge can come from paranormal states of consciousness, *that we can communicate with our loved ones who have passed, and *that we can establish a personal relationship with a loving God. In The Secret Second Coming, the author combines extensive academic research with personal stories of the four events which uniquely qualify her to write this book: an NDE that converted her agnosticism into non-religious, unshakable faith in God, and three profound encounters with Jesus inviting her to participate in the revealing of his second coming. "It is beyond doubt that spirits and mortals communicate, and that spirits know just what mortals are doing on earth and how to influence them in their loves and actions." -Jesus, III:83

Book excerpt: “This book will prove to be a most effective weapon… against the debunking and skeptical attitudes toward the Gospels that are so prevalent, not only in academe, but also on the street, among young people who, sadly, are leaving the Churches in droves.” – Robert Barron, author of Catholicism For well over a hundred years now, many scholars have questioned the historical truth of the Gospels, claiming that they were originally anonymous. Others have even argued that Jesus of Nazareth did not think he was God and never claimed to be divine. In The Case for Jesus, Dr. Brant Pitre, the bestselling author of Jesus and the Jewish Roots of the Eucharist, goes back to the sources—the biblical and historical evidence for Christ—in order to answer several key questions, including: • Were the four Gospels really anonymous? • Are the Gospels folklore? Or are they biographies? • Were the four Gospels written too late to be reliable? • What about the so-called “Lost Gospels,” such as “Q” and the Gospel of Thomas? • Did Jesus claim to be God? • Is Jesus divine in all four Gospels? Or only in John? • Did Jesus fulfill the Jewish prophecies of the Messiah? • Why was Jesus crucified? • What is the evidence for the Resurrection? As The Case for Jesus will show, recent discoveries in New Testament scholarship, as well as neglected evidence from ancient manuscripts and the early church fathers, together have the potential to pull the rug out from under a century of skepticism toward the traditional Gospels. Above all, Pitre shows how the divine claims of Jesus of Nazareth can only be understood by putting them in their ancient Jewish context.

Download or read book The Second Coming written by Franco Berardi and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2019-07-12 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We have entered the gateway to the apocalypse. This theological concept is the best metaphor to describe the world in which we are already living. Chaos is all around us: political folly, economical delirium, ecological catastrophe, intellectual cynicism, technological simulation of life. This is what Franco ‘Bifo’ Berardi suggests in this wry, dark, disconcerting but also brilliant and invigorating journey through the main events that we have witnessed in recent years. One century after the Communist revolution, the very idea that the world could be changed for the better seems dead once and for all. Every time that a new change occurs nowadays, it seems to be a change for the worse. But the fact that nothing can save us any more shouldn’t be seen as a form of fatality or a reason for surrender. On the contrary, if our world is dead, then the space is open for another to appear – a world where apocalypse can shake us out of our zombie-like contemporary existence. The second coming of Communism will have nothing to do with 1917. Apocalypse has to be conceived of as a metaphor, and Communism is a metaphor too: the metaphor of the possible deployment of the potentials of the mind.

Download or read book The Great Mystery of the Second Coming written by Gail Anne Carroll and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-11-14 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Father M. Joachim Tierney, O.C.S.O., instilled in the author his desire to discover the mystery of the visions and revelations of the Lord that St. Paul was shown when he was caught up into the third Heaven, paradise, as seen in 2 Corinthians 12:1-7. What they uncovered in their quest for this hidden knowledge is that St. Paul was shown the great mystery of Christ's Second Coming. And that this extraordinary mystery, now being revealed, is St. Paul's Gospel yet to be preached by the Church. St. Paul writes: "Now to him that is able to establish you according to 'my gospel' and the preaching of Jesus Christ according to 'the revelation of the mystery, ' which was kept secret from eternity, which 'now' is made manifest by the scriptures of the prophets..." (Romans 16:25-26) This secret mystery, the preaching of Jesus Christ according to St. Paul's gospel, is woven throughout St. Paul's letters. In fact, the word "mystery" is seen eighteen times in his epistles, whereas in the gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John the word mystery can be found just once, or not at all depending on which version of the Bible. This great mystery veiled in his letters is what has made them, until now, difficult to understand. A key was needed to unlock this powerful gift of knowledge. In his letter to the Colossians 4:3-6, St. Paul requests prayers that "a door of speech to speak the mystery of Christ" be opened by God. The key opening the door to the preaching of this glorious mystery of Christ is now being manifested in this prophetic unveiling of Sacred Scripture.

Book excerpt: Written specifically for people who suspect that there is something missing in the official Christian view of salvation and the second coming, this volume describes in great depth how the official view differs from what Jesus actually taught. Instead, the second coming of Christ means that thousands, perhaps millions, of people attain some degree of Christ consciousness and thus help bring about solutions that will transform society. The world will not end but will be transformed into a higher state.
