Download or read book The Memphite Equation written by Nathaniel Cameron and published by Austin Macauley Publishers. This book was released on 2022-11-30 with total page 734 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The locations and physical descriptions are factual – the prophetic embellished future is yet to be foretold. During July 15–17, 2007, an epochal event occurred in Manchester, England – the first international biblical conference on the 3000-year-old copper scroll, which later brewed a dangerous controversy. The copper scroll is among a group of scrolls found in 1947 and 1952, but this is the only one carved in metal and is not strictly a religious scroll. Dr. David E. Burton, a recent Harvard graduate, attended the conference. After Q&A, when what he saw didn’t come up, feeling baffled, he shared his idea that there was an equation on the scroll. From that moment, his life, family, an old and enigmatic organization (existing since 1863) he later joins, and the world change forever.

Download or read book The Puzzle written by Sedat Büyük and published by Sedat Büyük. This book was released on 2024-07-13 with total page 1008 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contains the results of an experiment I have done on myself. I have Asperger’s syndrome. I also had a condition called Schizoid. During the Schizoid condition which lasted twenty-three years, I wrote an epic poem about my life story: Ember. After completing the poem, I experienced something that most people would find unbelievable, and I got out of the Schizoid condition. And then I remembered why I did this experiment. After establishing the connection between Schizoid and Asperger’s, the analysis I made allowed me to produce scientific theses on many issues. For instance, what dreams mean and the function of dreams in the evolutionary design. And I claim to have solved a mystery that has puzzled the human mind for thousands of years... To understand the content of this book better, I recommend you reading Ember first.

Download or read book Spellbound written by Marcia Montenegro and published by David C Cook. This book was released on 2013-08-05 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our culture is saturated with the supernatural. TV shows such as Medium, Charmed, and Lost all have an "other-worldly" theme. Most of them blur the lines between good and evil. This past year was a "record" year for Hollywood in the production of films that dealt with the supernatural/paranormal. While we choose our entertainment, our kids don't often have the luxury of choosing whether to be exposed to these things at school. This book seeks to present a lucid and comprehensive examination of the paranormal and occult by breaking down the principles of paranormal practices, giving key points about the practices so that parents can readily identify them. The book discusses the occult view of supernatural energy and of good and evil, and how these concepts are seen in some popular literature and movies. The book also explains the dangers and gives a biblical basis for concern. Christian parents need to be equipped to discuss these matters with their children!
