The Beginning Of Sorrows

Popular, dedicated nature worshiper, Aristide Luca Therion, becomes President of the waning United States of America when President Biship Beckwith dies in a fiery plane crash.

Many Christians think of end times prophecy as a gigantic, intimidating puzzle -- difficult to piece together and impossible to figure out. But every puzzle can be solved if you approach it the right way. Paul Benware compares prophecy to a picture puzzle. Putting the edge pieces together first builds the 'framework' that makes it easier to fit the other pieces in their place. According to Benware, the framework for eschatology is the biblical covenants. He begins his comprehensive survey by explaining the major covenants. Then he discusses several different interpretations of end times prophecy. Benware digs into the details of the Rapture, the Great Tribulation, the judgements and resurrections, and the millennial kingdom. But he also adds a unique, personal element to the study, answering questions as: -Why study bible prophecy? -What difference does it make if I'm premillenial or amillenial? If what the Bible says about the future puzzles you, Understanding End Times Prophecy will help you put together the pieces and see the big picture.

For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be earthquakes in divers places, and there shall be famines and troubles: these are the beginnings of sorrows. Mark 13:8 When Agent Joshua Stone is called to a high-level meeting at the Department of Homeland Security, he learns about a new global order which will be transitioning into power. Stone is read in on the plan for a single planetary government and a world-wide cashless-currency, which will step in to fill the void left by the failing monetary system. To win wide acceptance by the nations of the world, the old system must first be allowed to fail, bringing about a state of global chaos never before seen by mankind. Once desperation has taken the place of pride and hubris, humanity will beg for the proposed one-world empire led by the charismatic tech guru Lucius Alexander. The United States will fall without a single shot being fired. While still considered a sovereign nation under the new global charter, America is required to make some major adjustments in order to fit in. One of the mandatory changes comes in the form of oppressive firearms restrictions. Agent Stone is tasked with infiltrating a group of anti-government nationalists to monitor their activities in the wake of the new gun ban. But what he learns from the group while working undercover causes him to question if he is on the right side of the fight. The final world empire will demand absolute loyalty. Stone will have to make an impossible choice. If he chooses to ignore the information gleaned during his time undercover, he will violate his deepest personal convictions. However, if he turns his back on the Global Union, he'll put not only his own life on the line, but also those of his wife and son.

The Beginning of Sorrows is a sequel to the book Too Late by Jynean E. Chandler. It picks up where the first book left off, where a young lady named Debbie Wiley has just witnessed the martyrdom of a teenage girl named Stacie Wilson and her family. They were all led to the gallows and hung because they refused to denounce their faith in Jesus Christ and take the mark of the antichrist. As they were being led up the steps to the gallows, Debbie noticed that Stacie and her family all had a glow on their faces and were actually smiling; it was as if the presence of the Holy Spirit was walking right beside them. They all were strangely gazing up toward the sky as the guards placed the nooses around their necks. None of them spoke a word but kept their eyes looking upward to the sky. Debbie watched tearfully from a distance with the other guards from the deprogramming camp and wondered what they were looking at. What vision was God showing them? she thought. After each one of them had nooses placed around their neck, one of the guards pulled the lever, and the platform shifted backward, and the stools they were standing on moved backward, leaving Stacie and her family dangling in the air, being held up only by the ropes around their necks. Debbie was so distraught that tears began to flow from her eyes as she watched these brave people die in horror. Suddenly, at that very moment, God revealed to Debbie that those brave people had been given a glimpse of heaven right before they died. That is why they kept gazing up into the sky. Previously, the teenage girl Stacie had been secretly keeping a journal, documenting all of the things that were taking place during the Tribulation right after she missed the Rapture and while a prisoner at the deprogramming camp. Just before she was led to the gallows, she discretely slipped her journal to Debbie, hinting that she wanted her to continue documenting these events in her journal. Debbie took the journal and quickly slipped it into her pants pocket, hoping that the other guards didn't see the transaction and turn her in as a traitor. Witnessing this event renewed her faith, and she realized that this was going to be her new assignment to God. She was determined to encourage those Christians who will be brought to the deprogramming camp to keep the faith and stand strong, even if they had to face death. What will be Debbie's fate? Will she be able to carry out this mission? What adventures will she face?

What the Person and Work of Jesus Really Means Christians, rightly called "people of the cross," look to Jesus's death and resurrection as the central points of his earthly mission. But in order to understand more fully the person and work of Christ, it's important for believers to fix their minds on his entire ministry—his life, death, resurrection, and ongoing ministry today—and not solely on his work on the cross. In Man of Sorrows, King of Glory, Jonty Rhodes uses the traditional roles of Jesus as prophet, priest, and king (often referred to as his "threefold office") to show how his whole life—in humiliation on earth and now exaltation in glory— is lived for us. As believers explore Jesus's life, death, resurrection, and ascension, they will develop a holistic portrait of the Messiah and a deeper appreciation for God's plan to reclaim sinners.
