When a brilliant forger produced documents that threatened the foundations of the Mormon Church, the religions elders, unaware of the falsities, were willing to pay a fortune to suppress the information they exposed. In order to prevent the truth of his forgery from coming out, the man behind them put into motion two bomb explosions and left two people dead in his path. A Gathering of Saints gives readers a look at the bombing that revealed corporate fraud, death squads, religious wars, and numerous other shocking revelations that jeopardized the future of the Mormon Church.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On October 15, 1985, two pipe bombs shook the calm of Salt Lake City, Utah, killing two people. The only link-both victims belonged to the Mormon Church. The next day, a third bomb was detonated in the parked car of church-going family man, Mark Hoffman. Incredibly, he survived. It wasn't until authorities questioned the strangely evasive Hoffman that another, more shocking link between the victims emerged... It was the appearance of an alleged historic document that challenged the very bedrock of Mormon teaching, questioned the legitimacy of its founder, and threatened to disillusion millions of its faithful-unless the Mormon hierarchy buried the evidence.

Download or read book The Harvest of the Saints written by Jim Wainscott and published by Inspiring Voices. This book was released on 2018-09-13 with total page 187 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Harvest of the Saints was written to reintroduce and examine the “harvest concept,” an end-time rapture theory that has remained hidden in the shadows for over a century. Unlike most rapture scenarios that rely upon a limited framework of supporting Scripture, the harvest concept is based on a compelling body of biblical evidence that also provides insight into other related end-time events. Specific topics include — the clearly defined Old Testament blueprint of a traditional harvest and its application to an end-time harvest of the saints, — why Jesus will come both as a thief in the night and visibly in the clouds as our conquering King, — the importance of overcoming and the prospect of escaping “the hour of trial which shall come upon the whole world, to test those who dwell on the earth” (Rev. 3:10), — why outer darkness and the lake of fire represent two separate areas of confinement established to serve two entirely different purposes, and — the ordered sequence of end-time events, their purposes, and their interrelationships. Please join me as we bring the “harvest concept” out of the shadows and into the light where we can “test all things; [and] hold fast what is good” (1 Thess. 5:21). Jim Wainscott

Download or read book A Gathering of Larks written by Abigail Carroll and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2017-03-06 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Who was Saint Francis? Today he is most often a sweet ceramic statue in a garden, a sentimentalized romantic figure. But A Gathering of Larks, containing forty personal letters from Abigail Carroll to Francis, reveals him to be a complex man who lived a fascinating life of radical faith. These letters—part devotion, part historical biography, part contemporary engagement, and part inspiration—reveal Carroll's curiosity and wonder about Francis. She celebrates his whimsical idealism and impetuousness, explores his spirituality and commitment to poverty, and sometimes even questions him. She also uses Francis as a sounding board for larger questions about the world—and, through her own experience, explores how brokenness makes experiencing redemption possible. As beautiful as it is insightful, alight with a pilgrim's growing sense of discovery, A Gathering of Larks has both range and depth that will uplift readers and challenge them to better understand this singular saint and how he might speak to and shape their way of living in today's world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story of Jesus includes all kinds of characters. Some see these people as mere examples to follow or to avoid, and some have only heard about them in Sunday school stories. But their interactions with Jesus reveal much more about the person of Jesus himself and the message he has for us. Saints and Scoundrels in the Story of Jesus tells the story of 10 people or groups of people who are integral to the story of Jesus told in the Gospels. Each chapter takes a character off the Sunday school felt board and reveals them as a three-dimensional person with desires, motivations, flaws, and limitations. They are more than examples—they show us a unique angle on the grace available through Jesus for sinners. Each chapter also offers challenging applications to the lives of readers.

Download or read book Angels Saints written by Eliot Weinberger and published by New Directions Publishing. This book was released on 2020-09-01 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A gorgeously illustrated co-publication with Christine Burgin by “one of the world’s great essayists” (The New York Times). With a guide to the illustrations by Mary Wellesley. Angels have soared through Western culture and consciousness from Biblical to contemporary times. But what do we really know about these celestial beings? Where do they come from, what are they made of, how do they communicate and perceive? The celebrated essayist Eliot Weinberger has mined and deconstructed, resurrected and distilled centuries of theology into an awe-inspiring exploration of the heavenly host. From a litany of angelic voices, Weinberger’s lyrical meditation then turns to the earthly counterparts, the saints, their lives retold in a series of vibrant and playful capsule biographies, followed by a glimpse of the afterlife. Threaded throughout Angels & Saints are the glorious illuminated grid poems by the eighteenth-century Benedictine monk Hrabanus Maurus. These astonishingly complex, proto-“concrete” poems are untangled in a lucid afterword by the medieval scholar and historian Mary Wellesley.
