King David, the second king of Israel, is a pivotal figure in biblical history. David is legendarily known for defeat of the giant Goliath. His life, spanning approximately 1040-970 BCE, was marked by significant events that shaped the Israelite kingdom.

The text known as "Second Enoch," was discovered in 1886 by Professor Sokolov in the archives of the Belgrade Public Library. The Second Book of Enoch, or 2 Enoch was written in the latter half of the first century A.D. but had gone through alterations and additions to make it more acceptable to the Christian community. It was written in Slavonic, but had evidence of being translated from another language.

Nimrod is arguably one of the most important people in the early parts of the Old Testament, but there is very little said about him in scripture overall. However, what is said changes the entire course of human history, mostly because of where he was from. Nimrod was the son of Cush, the grandson of Ham, and the great grandson of Noah.

Issus de "l'étincelle divine", nous sommes tous un fragment de la force créatrice de Dieu le Père et Dieu la Mère. Si notre cerveau possède deux hémisphères, l'un masculin, l'autre féminin, il en va de même du miroir de la création. Notre Père, co-créateur de l'univers, immobile et imperturbable, est pur intellect, alors que Dieu la Mère est le dieu émotif et actif qui peut "interférer" avec notre plan de vie.

In the Bible we find "The Book of Life" which was created by God before the beginning of the world. It contains all the names that will live with God in eternity. The song "The Book of Life" sung by Chey & Diana at the end of the message gives the audience the opportunity to reflect on the message.

Er wurde vom Herrn angewiesen, eine Arche zu bauen, in der er, seine Familie und eine große Anzahl von Vögeln und von Landtieren hineinbringen sollte, damit sie nicht von der Flut ertränkt würden. Gottes Entscheidung, eine Sintflut über die Erde zu bringen, wurde durch die Realität des Bösen, das er von den Menschen ausgeübt sah, tief beeinflusst. Das Lied von Chey, "The Book of Life" am Ende der Predigt gibt den Zuhörern die Möglichkeit, über die Predigt nachzudenken.

This short book is designed to briefly introduce people to information from Church history and the teaching of the Bible that have been misunderstood, misinterpreted, and misrepresented to show that what most people have been told about the nature and duration of hell is not true.

Isn't it shocking that the precious holy name of the heavenly father has been removed from his own book almost 7,000 times. How do you think God feels? When Jesus taught us how to pray, He said: Our Father who art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name...what name? Is it "God"? That's not his name...it's a title. Is the name "Lord"? That's also not his name...it's also a title. What is the personal holy name of the god you serve? Why is it important to use and praise God's true name?

The use of intercessory beings in prayer hasn't always been the normal accepted practice.
