This book derived mainly from historical research, reading and rational analysis of the books of the Old Testament, the gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John, and the epistles, without clerical or religious lenses. A possible connection with the apocryphal gospels or antique manuscripts will be mere coincidence. The fictional part of the book is on account of the artistic license. The reader will reduce or enlarge the fictional field according to his/her beliefs, intelligence, and sensitivity. In the Bible itself, the margin for fiction and contradiction is significant. The storyline adopts a linear path of the life the great master of humanity. It brings up the circumstances and the human sensuality of the conception and birth of Joshua and of John Baptist, aspects of their adolescence and maturity, the novitiate and the gradual ascension to the classes of adepts, prophets and illuminati in the school of mysteries called Egyptian Cross Fraternity. This part of the book contains debates about the fundamental aspects of the material world and spiritual world. Following, the book shows the scheme of the moral and religious revolution incited by the school of mysteries and led externally by John Baptist and Joshua, the first in the role of messenger, and the second in the role of messiah. It describes the spiritual ecstasy of Joshua in the eve of the crucifixion, the decisive moments of resurrection, the organization of the primitive church, the role of Maria Magdalene, the marriage and the descendants of Joshua, the election for the function of Hierophant, and his last days in Gallia. There are interludes, like the domestic and social life, the first sexual experience of Joshua, the romantic love affair with Maria Magdalene, the issues of adultery and homosexuality, episodes of crime, suicide, sodomy, rebellion, investigations, and trials. These topics account for the realism and verisimilitude of the story. The indelible presence of the school of mysteries pervades all the way through the work.

The perfect gift! A specially priced, beautifully designed hardcover edition of The Joy of the Gospel with a foreword by Robert Barron and an afterword by James Martin, SJ. “The joy of the gospel fills the hearts and lives of all who encounter Jesus… In this Exhortation I wish to encourage the Christian faithful to embark upon a new chapter of evangelization marked by this joy, while pointing out new paths for the Church’s journey in years to come.” – Pope Francis This special edition of Pope Francis's popular message of hope explores themes that are important for believers in the 21st century. Examining the many obstacles to faith and what can be done to overcome those hurdles, he emphasizes the importance of service to God and all his creation. Advocating for “the homeless, the addicted, refugees, indigenous peoples, the elderly who are increasingly isolated and abandoned,” the Holy Father shows us how to respond to poverty and current economic challenges that affect us locally and globally. Ultimately, Pope Francis demonstrates how to develop a more personal relationship with Jesus Christ, “to recognize the traces of God’s Spirit in events great and small.” Profound in its insight, yet warm and accessible in its tone, The Joy of the Gospel is a call to action to live a life motivated by divine love and, in turn, to experience heaven on earth. Includes a foreword by Robert Barron, author of Catholicism: A Journey to the Heart of the Faith and James Martin, SJ, author of Jesus: A Pilgrimage
A variation on the traditional Cinderella story set in a Southern swamp and with a Great Gospel Convention instead of a ball.
Many Christians live as though they are effectively alone in the world. However, there is another realm of intelligent life that plays a role in the world—angelic beings. This book explores the doctrine of angels and demons, answering key questions about their nature and the implications for Christians' beliefs and behavior, helping readers see their place in the larger biblical plotline that includes supernatural beings. An understanding of the reality of angels and demons encourages believers to be vigilant in the light of spiritual warfare and to be confident in Christ's victory on the cross.
To many Americans, modern marches by the Ku Klux Klan may seem like a throwback to the past or posturing by bigoted hatemongers. To Kelly Baker, they are a reminder of how deeply the Klan is rooted in American mainstream Protestant culture. Most studies of the KKK dismiss it as an organization of racists attempting to intimidate minorities and argue that the Klan used religion only as a rhetorical device. Baker contends instead that the KKK based its justifications for hatred on a particular brand of Protestantism that resonated with mainstream Americans, one that employed burning crosses and robes to explicitly exclude Jews and Catholics. To show how the Klan used religion to further its agenda of hate while appealing to everyday Americans, Kelly Baker takes readers back to its "second incarnation" in the 1920s. During that decade, the revived Klan hired a public relations firm that suggested it could reach a wider audience by presenting itself as a "fraternal Protestant organization that championed white supremacy as opposed to marauders of the night." That campaign was so successful that the Klan established chapters in all forty-eight states. Baker has scoured official newspapers and magazines issued by the Klan during that era to reveal the inner workings of the order and show how its leadership manipulated religion, nationalism, gender, and race. Through these publications we see a Klan trying to adapt its hate-based positions with the changing times in order to expand its base by reaching beyond a narrowly defined white male Protestant America. This engrossing expos looks closely at the Klan's definition of Protestantism, its belief in a strong relationship between church and state, its notions of masculinity and femininity, and its views on Jews and African Americans. The book also examines in detail the Klan's infamous 1924 anti-Catholic riot at Notre Dame University and draws alarming parallels between the Klan's message of the 1920s and current posturing by some Tea Party members and their sympathizers. Analyzing the complex religious arguments the Klan crafted to gain acceptability-and credibility-among angry Americans, Baker reveals that the Klan was more successful at crafting this message than has been credited by historians. To tell American history from this startling perspective demonstrates that some citizens still participate in intolerant behavior to protect a fabled white Protestant nation.
