ISBN: 162601499X
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 158
Book Description
“The music was a battle cry heard around the world and throughout Heaven and Hell. It would summon Sethis and call out his dark legions to destroy all those who had light in their hearts...” Deep beneath the Egyptian sands, an ancient, evil song written in hieroglyphics is discovered in the long lost, buried pyramid of the demonic pharaoh, Aknaseth. It is written that if this song is performed for the world to hear, it will unleash the Apocalypse upon the world of man, and Sethis—known commonly as Satan—will reign and grant immortality to the chosen. Nihilistic multi-billionaire, Festus Baustone III—with the help of the malevolent Egyptologist, Helmut Hartkopff—will do whatever it takes to bring the song to life at any cost...even if his only daughter, Mona, is to be sacrificed. Kirk Vaisto, known as the “God of Guitar” by his millions of fans, soon finds himself caught between the forces of divine good and monumental evil. Oblivious to the powerful darkness lurking in his guitar strings, Kirk agrees to work for Baustone and Hartkopff to turn Aknaseth’s hieroglyphics into music. Kirk begins a musical journey that takes him from an unholy chapter in ancient Egyptian history to the remains of the true Holy Cross, to the concert stage and to the very edge of Hell itself. Kirk Vaisto will give the performance of a lifetime. Immortality, the end of the world, and the salvation of every mortal soul are the stakes in Jeremy Wagner’s, The Armageddon Chord,

Cowboys, Armageddon, and the Truth
Author: Scott M. Terry
Publisher: Lethe Press
ISBN: 1590213661
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 290
Book Description
Cowboys, Armageddon, and The Truth: How a Gay Child Was Saved from Religion offers an illuminating glimpse into a child's sequestered world of abuse, homophobia, and religious extremism. Scott Terry's memoir is a compelling, poignant and occasionally humorous look into the Jehovah's Witness faith-a religion that refers to itself as The Truth-and a brave account of Terry's successful escape from a troubled past. At the age of ten, Terry had embraced the Witnesses' prediction that the world will come to an end in 1975 and was preparing for Armageddon. As an adolescent, he prayed for God to strip away his growing attraction to other young men. But by adulthood, Terry found himself no longer believing in the promised apocalypse. Through a series of adventures and misadventures, he left the Witness religion behind and became a cowboy, riding bulls in the rodeo. He overcame the hurdles of parental abuse, religious extremism, and homophobia and learned that Truth is a concept of honesty rather than false righteousness, a means to live a life openly, for Terry as a gay man."

Spirits, Souls, and Dreams
Author: Ordinary Immortal
Publisher: Abbott Press
ISBN: 1458216934
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 307
Book Description
Spirits, Souls, and Dreams: Poetic Impressions, is a collection of unique perceptions of the author derived from spirits, souls and dreams. The human experience entails living between spiritual heaven and hell, an amalgamation of both spiritual and human origin. Life demands integrating subjective spiritual information from divergent sources along with human emotions, thoughts and dreams, and interpreting this information by means of spiritually impaired objective reasoning. Given these inherent convolutions, we are fallible in judgment and even in our own memories. It is imperative to employ the utmost judiciousness to interpersonal inferences, assumptions, and deductions and with biblical assurance, accept that our cognitive processes are abjectly compromised. It is absolutely essential to accept others without concession. Spirits, Souls, and Dreams is a collection of poetry that reminds us that acceptance is requisite for forgiveness. Forgiveness is indispensable for true love. God is love. Love is God. Only Can I Live To See Only Can I Live To See When The Moon Turns Red I Can Not Imagine Dreaming In My Bed I Want To Fly Above The Sea On A Brand New Morning And Make Clouds My Covering For No Reason Its Part Of Me.

Thirty five years after the detonation of the atomic bomb over Nagasaki and the withdrawal of the spirit of Jesus Christ from Earth, luckless P.I., Phaeton Troupe, is hired to unravel the mystery of the disappearance of Natalie Pierce, a college co-ed. Uncovering the truth not only sets Phaeton on a course of confrontation with a brilliant, sadistic, mafia crime lord plotting global domination, but entangles him in a web of intrigue spun by powerful, reality-defying galactic life forms. Risking another round of racial turmoil in Los Angeles, Phaeton must navigate a maze of deceit and conflicting motives and interests of fiercely determined forces, including his client, Natalie's mother. On both sides of the clouds, Phaeton is marked for death. Only by surviving such ordeals as his brains being frozen, his insides roasted, and an encounter with a six-fisted ex-pug, will he not only learn the fate of Natalie Pierce, but embark upon a quest to save the human race from nuclear extermination, and restore the spirit of Christ to the world. Can he?
