Why is this happening? Will the Ordre be able to save the monarchy from assassination? How is the Jacobin Club involved in this? What strange powers does the Count of Saint-Germaine possess?

The title Holy Writings gets the name from the books which have guided three religions. These religions are Judaism, Christianity and Islam. The books that are the source of enlightenment of those who practice these three religions are the Torah the books of Moses, Gospels the writings of the disciples and the Quran the book of Muhammad. Within these Holy Books are truths. The Torah brings us the Heroes and the Prophets. The Gospels brings us Jesus and his message. The Quran brings us warning and remembrance of the first two books. The true understandings of the Creator are found within these three books. The ones who heard the words recorded what they heard and we today must understand what they heard so that we can move forward to what was promised and that is a new Heaven and a new earth wherein dwells righteousness. As we read this we see that all the prophets and what was written before comes together in what is the final meaning of all the times past. Where ever it is mentioned about a reference to a person, phrase or time in the Quran it is follow as to where this subject may be found in the King James Bible. This book is to connect all three religions to the path which all seek and that is the straight path. With an open heart and open mind the truth about the Quran and The Prophet message will become what it was always suppose to be to bring the promise of God that was made to Ishmael where he would be a father of nations and in the end bring all nations back to God.
