What if we had writings directly from Jesus? The Secret Second Coming is a journey into the discovery of one of the most incredible events of our time. A little-known event that, according to Jesus himself, represents his second coming. In the early part of the twentieth century, writings claiming to be by Jesus were received through psicografica (Brazilian for spirit-to-mortal written communications). The mortal was James Padgett, a Washington D.C. attorney and Methodist Sunday school teacher, in his senior years. These messages are introduced in The Secret Second Coming and their authority is thoroughly examined, especially in relation to the authority of the New Testament. How do we know whether or not these messages from Jesus are real? What makes them different from other channeled material? What are the criteria for judging and who decides? What are the origins of Biblical resistance to communication with deceased spirits?Where does true spiritual authority come from and how do you recognize it? In addition to answering these questions, The Secret Second Coming reveals: *convincing evidence of life after death by scientists and lawyers, *that profound knowledge can come from paranormal states of consciousness, *that we can communicate with our loved ones who have passed, and *that we can establish a personal relationship with a loving God. In The Secret Second Coming, the author combines extensive academic research with personal stories of the four events which uniquely qualify her to write this book: an NDE that converted her agnosticism into non-religious, unshakable faith in God, and three profound encounters with Jesus inviting her to participate in the revealing of his second coming. "It is beyond doubt that spirits and mortals communicate, and that spirits know just what mortals are doing on earth and how to influence them in their loves and actions." -Jesus, III:83
We have entered the gateway to the apocalypse. This theological concept is the best metaphor to describe the world in which we are already living. Chaos is all around us: political folly, economical delirium, ecological catastrophe, intellectual cynicism, technological simulation of life. This is what Franco ‘Bifo’ Berardi suggests in this wry, dark, disconcerting but also brilliant and invigorating journey through the main events that we have witnessed in recent years. One century after the Communist revolution, the very idea that the world could be changed for the better seems dead once and for all. Every time that a new change occurs nowadays, it seems to be a change for the worse. But the fact that nothing can save us any more shouldn’t be seen as a form of fatality or a reason for surrender. On the contrary, if our world is dead, then the space is open for another to appear – a world where apocalypse can shake us out of our zombie-like contemporary existence. The second coming of Communism will have nothing to do with 1917. Apocalypse has to be conceived of as a metaphor, and Communism is a metaphor too: the metaphor of the possible deployment of the potentials of the mind.
The Reverend Clarence Larkin was one of the most widely influential thinkers on end-times prophecies of the early twentieth century, and his writings remain vital to appreciating the apocalyptic Christian thought that today enjoys widespread popularity. This 1918 work outlines exactly what the Bible predicts for the end of mankind's reign on Earth, and the return of the Christian savior, with a special emphasis on who is to be saved, and why. Numerous charts and illustrations depict the "Judgment Seat of Christ," "The Stages of the Second Coming," the "Failure of Man," and more.American Baptist pastor and author CLARENCE LARKIN (1850-1924) was born in Pennsylvania, and later set up his ministry there. He wrote extensively and popularly on a wide range of Biblical and theological matters.
Father M. Joachim Tierney, O.C.S.O., instilled in the author his desire to discover the mystery of the visions and revelations of the Lord that St. Paul was shown when he was caught up into the third Heaven, paradise, as seen in 2 Corinthians 12:1-7. What they uncovered in their quest for this hidden knowledge is that St. Paul was shown the great mystery of Christ's Second Coming. And that this extraordinary mystery, now being revealed, is St. Paul's Gospel yet to be preached by the Church. St. Paul writes: "Now to him that is able to establish you according to 'my gospel' and the preaching of Jesus Christ according to 'the revelation of the mystery, ' which was kept secret from eternity, which 'now' is made manifest by the scriptures of the prophets..." (Romans 16:25-26) This secret mystery, the preaching of Jesus Christ according to St. Paul's gospel, is woven throughout St. Paul's letters. In fact, the word "mystery" is seen eighteen times in his epistles, whereas in the gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John the word mystery can be found just once, or not at all depending on which version of the Bible. This great mystery veiled in his letters is what has made them, until now, difficult to understand. A key was needed to unlock this powerful gift of knowledge. In his letter to the Colossians 4:3-6, St. Paul requests prayers that "a door of speech to speak the mystery of Christ" be opened by God. The key opening the door to the preaching of this glorious mystery of Christ is now being manifested in this prophetic unveiling of Sacred Scripture.
Jesus Christ is coming again! That is the Blessed Hope which has since the earliest days of the Church energized Biblical Christians looking for the full revelation of God's redemption. The author sketches the history of interpretations of Christ's second coming and then carefully and lucidly examines the Biblical passages on which this doctrine is based. His conclusion is that the Blessed Hope is the second coming of Jesus Christ, not a pretribulation rapture that believers in a secret coming of Jesus. Yet he concludes that there should be liberty and charity within the Christian community for all who hold to the expectation of "the blessed hope and appearing in glory of our great God and Saviour Jesus Christ."

A New York Times Book Review Editors’ Choice Selection An urgent examination into the revived Klan of the 1920s becomes “required reading” for our time (New York Times Book Review). Extraordinary national acclaim accompanied the publication of award-winning historian Linda Gordon’s disturbing and markedly timely history of the reassembled Ku Klux Klan of the 1920s. Dramatically challenging our preconceptions of the hooded Klansmen responsible for establishing a Jim Crow racial hierarchy in the 1870s South, this “second Klan” spread in states principally above the Mason-Dixon line by courting xenophobic fears surrounding the flood of immigrant “hordes” landing on American shores. “Part cautionary tale, part expose” (Washington Post), The Second Coming of the KKK “illuminates the surprising scope of the movement” (The New Yorker); the Klan attracted four-to-six-million members through secret rituals, manufactured news stories, and mass “Klonvocations” prior to its collapse in 1926—but not before its potent ideology of intolerance became part and parcel of the American tradition. A “must-read” (Salon) for anyone looking to understand the current moment, The Second Coming of the KKK offers “chilling comparisons to the present day” (New York Review of Books).
In 2005, a disgruntled archivist at the Vatican Library made contact with revisionist historians Timothy Freke and Peter Gandy, claiming that the Vatican was secretly housing a number of unpublished "heretical" Gnostic Christian texts. He presented Freke and Gandy with a facsimile copy of an ancient manuscript, which is presented to the public for the first time in this book. This gospel will shock academics and Christians alike. It makes the extraordinary claim that the long-awaited "Second Coming of Christ" has already happened; and it also explores the intimate relationship between Mary Magdalene and Jesus, his "Beloved Disciple." And, perhaps most controversial of all, it reveals Jesus as a Gnostic master with a zany sense of humor and an upbeat message. As Jesus says himself in the text: "Death is coming. Life is foreplay."
