Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - This book explains how the thread of modern history was originally penned in the Revelation by the Apostle John during his exile on the isle of Patmos in 92A.D. It was a vision given to him by Christ that details in sublime language the various eras down to the present day. The destruction of the World Trade towers on September 11 2001, or 9/11 is part of this explanation.The twin World Trade Towers in New York city were the pride of America. Their construction began in 1968 and represented the prosperity and culmination of the postwar era and America's superpower status. Destroyed in one day in 2001 their significance goes to the heart of our existence here on planet Earth and is part of the conflict at bottom in this world.The towers in New York were the 'trade towers.' For the first one hundred thousand years of our existence as fully formed human beings we were hunter-gatherers and later on, when the big game became depleted; farmers. Apart from simple bartering there was no trade for gain. We had no knowledge of weights and measures then, or packaging up goods for a price. These practices only emerged some six thousand years ago; and is what the story of Adam and Eve, and particularly Cain, their son, is all about. Cain is the divine analogy of the emergence of trade within the human experience, and its disastrous effect upon the purity of the human spirit. Although the practice of trade may have been quite a natural evolution and has brought many benefits to mankind, trade for gain also brought depravity to human nature; and tarnished our primitive purity and character, or image of God in which we were created.This was the Fall of man, where the evil spirits of envy, greed, deceit and murder emerged and became universal. Cain 'built a city.' Not only so, but rival city states and their attendant war machines. The world six thousand years ago marked the appearance of armed pillaging hordes and the first empires. The 'Assyrian wolf that came down on the fold.' The emergence of trade for gain proceeding from crop surpluses marked one of the most significant changes of life on Earth. From being created in the image of God, mankind became engaged in rivalry featuring depraved practices for gain that a formerly generous population had no knowledge of.The World Trade Towers were destroyed by Islamic terrorists. Struck down by terrorists proceeding from the Islamic world out of a clear blue sky on a Tuesday morning, representing probably the greatest single act of terrorism of all time. The Islamic faith is the violent reaction proceeding from the spiritual realm to Roman Catholicism. When Pope Boniface IV in 609AD dedicated the universal Church to the worship of the Virgin Mary, owned only by Christ, Mohammed appeared with his teachings the following year. A further false faith and one of the sword, that swept North Africa and West Asia from India to Spain. Swiftly rendering some of the richest parts of the habitable Earth hostile to European activity, particularly trade. So the World Trade Towers, destroyed by the reaction to Western idolatry fits with the overall direction of history and the religious conflict the world, and the Revelation, when everything is boiled down, is really all about. This work explains how the vision given at the end of the first century down through eras of time fits with world events.…

Hardcover. Zustand: New. Whatever happened to the good old days when authors like Andre Norton and Robert A. Heinlein wrote books for young adults? How come fantasy has all the really cool books like The Bartimaeus Trilogy and Harry Potter, while children?s sf lags behind in the excitement department? If you?ve been lamenting the death of the juvenile, dust off a place on your bookshelf because Escape from Earth resurrects this long-languished tradition with stories that are as vivid, fun and fast-paced as you remember. Tales of young people blasting off into the unknown have quickened our sense of wonder ever since we were kids. So we asked two highly respected editors?Jack Dann and Gardner Dozois?to find stories that pique that sensation: stories that deal with the restless urge to explore, to get away from mundane limitations, to see what?s happening out there. And true to form, they came up with seven tales by award-winning writers you?ll be eager to read and pass on to your own kids. Wide-screen stories about struggle and hope, romance and danger, friendship and conflict, all opening up unexpected worlds and surprising vistas. Take a look? Escape from Earth by Allen Steele Sixteen-year-old Eric always wanted to be an astronaut, but after his father died in Iraq, he lost hope that he?d ever get out of his dull little town. Then he catches a bunch of teenage cadets stealing fuel for their 24th?century starship, and he's launched on the jaunt of a lifetime. Where the Golden Apples Grow by Kage Baker Neither Bill nor Ford likes his life very much. Tired of hauling ice from the Martian poles to Mons Olympus, Bill dreams of farming the warm green fields under the domes. Ford, a farmer's son, yearns to drive a freighter under the stars. Thrown together by chance, the boys discover that the grass is greener on the other side of the fence. Derelict by Geoffrey A. Landis For the daredevil teens on Malina space colony, visiting ghost station Hercules without adult permission is the thing to do. Home to fifty thousand dissidents, Hercules was destroyed by an impact, but what exactly hit it isn't known. Now, amid dangers they?d only ever heard about, Dylan and friends will learn what really happened there, and why. Space Boy by Orson Scott Card Sometimes, if you can?t go to space, space will come to you. Which is just what happens to Todd. When his mom disappeared, everyone believed she either ran away or was killed. Then a little man from another planet shows up saying she?s alive?in another universe. And recovering her will prove quite a challenge? Incarnation Day by Walter Jon Williams Coming of age is a significant milestone, yet in the high-risk world of space colonization, it can be downright dangerous. Orbiting Saturn, one culture raises their children in the safety of virtuality?but it?s hell on the kids. Because if you turn out the way your parents want you to be, you?re downloaded into a body?and if you don't, you're permanently erased. Combat Shopping by Elizabeth Moon When you live amidst the icy wastes of Ganymede, going shopping can take on a life and death dimension. Ask Andi, one of the five children adopted by the horrible Murchisons. There are bad people at Base, and when Andi loses the younger kids, only the piloting skills she learned on the sly can save them. The Mars Girl by Joe Haldeman Carmen has troubles. For some reason, the colony administrator on Mars has it in for her, and a walk outside the habitat seems just the thing to let off steam. The next thing she knows, she's plunging into a lava tube?where the real Mart.…
