This book pulls no punches. We have been lied to about the origins of the New Testament, the Church, and the historical record. But what really happened?

Evidence from the Bible, contemporaneous histories, and the Dead Sea Scrolls, is meticulously documented – but presented in a narrative that anyone can follow.

Fact or Fiction?Many people do not believe the events in the end of the age Jesus and the prophets described in the Bible.

They find it unbelievable that to buy and sell every person must take the mark of the beast or they will be beheaded (Revelation 20:24). They question how can a God of love could destroy billions of people. These descriptions of the end of the age frighten people. Many people describe these prophecies as fictional tales.

2nd Esdras is one of the most powerful prophetic displays in history yet mostly hidden today from plain sight in the church. As it claims authorship from the Prophet Ezra 400 years prior to Messiah, it even foretells His birth in 400 years from that date as well as identifies Him as Yahusha in name. It preserves the trail of the Lost Tribes of the Northern Kingdom of Israel in which we have provided maps and charts including other scripture and history which serve as the foundation for such location. This will blow many away as we can know where the Lost Tribes migrated en masse. Experience...

Flat earth is not a conspiracy. Far from it. Did you know the entire heliocentric system of a spherical Earth rotating and revolving around the sun with other planets was actually designed after ancient occultic beliefs? The heliocentric system is not real. It never was, but its imaginary design fulfills Satan’s grand purpose of misdirecting the human race away from the True Creator God. It’s an endlessly complex design that fills the time and energy of millions of people who grew up playing with toy space shuttle’s and imagining what it would be like to become astronauts and explore ...

During World War II, in a Lithuanian ghetto, three comrades took courageous action against their German invaders: Abba Kovner, a Jewish partisan leader, produced a manifesto that called for his fellow Jews to take up arms against the Nazis; his future wife Vitka Kempner joined the FPO, a resistance organization; their friend, Ruzka Korczak, also joined the FPO, eager to strike back at their oppressors. Together, this trio served at the center of the underground movement in Lithuania.
