Hey America Listen Up
Author: Greg DeHart
Publisher: Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.
ISBN: 1643498282
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 503
Book Description
A voice of one crying from the subarctic, prepare ye the way of the Yeshua! His judgment against this nation is right now coming forth, and his second coming is at hand! Hey, America, listen up. In order to properly introduce this book, I must first say I believe in the absolute authority and infallibility of the Holy Scriptures, the Holy Bible. The Bible is the bottom line authority in respect to all of man's life and conduct and reveals the path of salvation to all who are of a true heart. This edition is not meant to be a book on theology but a book of wisdom, a collection of exhortations and reproofs written to America over the last twenty plus years in Yehovah's name. (Yehovah is the ancient name of God; it is my understanding that it is most correctly pronounced Ye-Ho-Vah.) I am certainly not a humorist, but you'll find some humor. I'm not known to be sarcastic, but you'll find some sarcasm. You will not find much of the message to be what you may think of as lighthearted, although I think you will find the illustrations imaginative, human, and very relative. I am not an entertainer; however likely you will be entertained. It is not a work that many would define as politically correct or diplomatic. I will admit I'm far too straightforward to fit into the popular definition of those terms. Simply put, Hey, America, Listen Up is the compilation of expressions of a modern-day watchman whose spirit Yehovah has stirred up to speak warning to this society to the end that people of honest heart might be humbled to courageously turn from every wicked way to follow with enlightenment and singleness of heart the way of the one and only true God who is revealed in the face of Yeshua, even as the greater portion of our nation's founding fathers did. It is a book that predicts the sad and deadly days ahead that will surely fall upon not only this nation, but also every nation of the earth that refuses to turn from ungodliness to seek and serve the living God.

Category : Humor
Languages : en
Pages : 244
Book Description
Book store nation, in the history of mankind there has never been a greater country than America. You could say we're the #1 nation at being the best at greatness. But as perfect as America is in every single way, America is broken! And we can't exchange it because we're 236 years past the 30-day return window. Look around--we don't make anything anymore, we've mortgaged our future to China, and the Apologist-in-Chief goes on world tours just to bow before foreign leaders. Worse, the L.A. Four Seasons Hotel doesn't even have a dedicated phone button for the Spa. You have to dial an extension! Where did we lose our way?! It's high time we restored America to the greatness it never lost! Luckily, America Again will singlebookedly pull this country back from the brink. It features everything from chapters, to page numbers, to fonts. Covering subject's ranging from healthcare ("I shudder to think where we'd be without the wide variety of prescription drugs to treat our maladies, such as think-shuddering") to the economy ("Life is giving us lemons, and we're shipping them to the Chinese to make our lemon-flavored leadonade") to food ("Feel free to deep fry this book-it's a rich source of fiber"), Stephen gives America the dose of truth it needs to get back on track.

Shipwreck
Author: Anthony J. Morelli II
Publisher: iUniverse
ISBN: 0595612938
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 132
Book Description
Conspiracy theorist Chet Morelli has been navigating the river of lies in the United States for more than 30 years. Like many others, he's discovered that the government is no friend of the people, and indeed has plans to enslave its citizens in order to promote a new world order. The evidence is staggering. Poisons such as fluoride have been added to the water supply and mercury continues to be injected into innocent children in the form of vaccines. Meanwhile, the country continues its metamorphosis into a military police state where the people no longer have any rights. This new USA plans to create a master race and depopulate the earth of 80 percent of its people. None of this looks good for the general public, but it's not too late to do something about it. Ask yourself: Where will this blueprint take humanity, and has the Earth become the cosmic battleground on which God and Satan will fight for supremacy? And if so, is this fight near an end? Take the journey and find out the truth in Shipwreck: Sailing on a River of Lies in the USA.
