Download or read book Romancing Death written by William Schnoebelen and published by Destiny Image Publishers. This book was released on 2012-03-20 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Romancing Death sheds the light of God on the popularity of vampirism in today’s pop culture. This fascinating exposé of the dark realities behind romanticizing the occult in our current culture reveals the naked truth about how the church has not addressed the needs of people young and old who fill the holes in their souls and spirits with evil rather than good. Weaving his personal history—including involvement in Wicca, Freemasonry, and vampirism—the author lays out the literary and cultural history of vampirism and closely analyzes the romanticized presentation of the occult in the Twilight saga. Romancing Death is a clarion call for the Church to take responsibility to be true salt and light in the world.

She alone of her family remains or so it would seem. One thing is clear. It is time to leave. It has been over two hundred years since Roric, old and full of good years, has been laid to his rest. His world is ripped apart by an uprising of a dark people with a master plan that calls for the utter destruction of any who may oppose their new world order. They wield technology more advanced than any available to the descendants of Roric's clan. They attack without mercy and Roric's world burns, millions die. Some burnt by fire, some by the whip of slavery, but some are taken over as their wills and thoughts are commanded by their masters, who compel them to do evil things against their own families. The Valley Lands are the first to fall. The Attorgrons burn with their great forest. The Zoarinians never reborn of the Spirit of God perish with their great cities. Assoria and its kingdoms are turned into a lifeless wasteland where no one goes. There are none that remain to oppose the new world order's regime of terror, but prophecy will be fulfilled. A place of powerful mystery is revealed and the guardian is awakened from her long sleep. Her rage has no bounds, but there is no rebuilding upon what has already been lost. Knowing this she gathers the remnants of her kind and she takes them far away. But what will they find in this new galaxy of strange worlds? They know so little of what has transpired in the ancient past. Who are their enemies and do they have any that they might call friend? The better question is have they exchanged one form of hell for a worse one?
