For centuries, Christians have discussed and looked forward to
The Second Coming of Jesus Christ. The Second Coming of Jesus
Christ.
However, recent generations have grown apathetic. Many people no
longer believe in Christ's return. Others insist that, the Second
Coming is in the very distant future. This theory was common among
Christians until the mid 20th Century when the signs Christ related
in the Bible, Book of Mormon and Doctrine and Covenants began to
appear. Today only two signs, of 26 foretold signs, remain to be
fulfilled.
The Antichrist must reveal himself. The Jewish temple must be
rebuilt in Jerusalem.
When these two events occur, the world will be plunged into an
unprecedented period of tribulation. Christians and Jews will be
targeted for annihilation and the events described by Christ in
Matthew 24 (New Testament of the Bible) will be fulfilled.
We no longer have the luxury of waiting to prepare for the end
times. They are almost here. Those who fail to understand will find
themselves in a situation beyond their control. The only answer is,
to have or to develop, a close and personal relationship with Jesus
Christ.
This book organizes scripture warning signs that people can
study to decide for them-selves, whether these prophesied events
should concern them today. This book also provides scriptures with
hope for the future.
Adirondack Portraits: A Piece of Time is a moving poetic statement
about the Adirondack wilderness and the people who fought the
mountains' relentless environment to settle there at the end of the
nineteenth century. The book is also about the remarkable Jeanne
Robert Foster (1879-1970). Born in poverty in the Adirondacks, as a
young woman she emerged in the center of the literary and artistic
circles of her day, an associate of Ford Madox Ford, James Joyce,
Ezra Pound, T. S. Eliot, and the Yeatses, father and son.
Adirondack Portraits gives us a glimpse into the early life of
Jeanne and some of the influences that helped her step from a harsh
physical existence into the unforgettable world of New York, Paris,
and London in the 1920s. Above all, her poems and prose pieces are,
in the words of Alfred Kazin, "an attempt to recover a vanished
time, to record with love and admiration and enduring wonder a life
of hardship, endless exertion, and perhaps above all, the kind of
isolation that used to dominate country life in America.
