Tom Newman went into anaphylactic shock and suffered a cardiac arrest and complete respiratory failure after being stung repeatedly. He flat lined; his spirit and soul left his body, and he became aware of what was transpiring around him. There were no bright lights, no tunnels, and no one waiting to meet him. Tom could see the operating table and watched the efforts to revive him. It was after this experience that Tom began to seriously consider the sophisticated and complex nature of dueling realities; the spiritual and physical realms are very real. An understanding of life in two separate realities significantly alters our understanding as Author Tom Newman explains in A Brief History of the Bible. This informative and biblically-based book gives great insight for those curious about what the bible has to say over this topic and how it works harmoniously within itself to present us theological truth. Tom did not find the answers in the sciences, psychology or philosophy. The Bible seemed to hold the best possibilities for answers and after a twenty-year-study of Scripture, Tom found the answers to his questions about life and death. Tom Newman currently resides in Eden Prairie, New Mexico.

A literary history of our most influential book of all time, by an Oxford scholar and Anglican priest In our culture, the Bible is monolithic: It is a collection of books that has been unchanged and unchallenged since the earliest days of the Christian church. The idea of the Bible as "Holy Scripture," a non-negotiable authority straight from God, has prevailed in Western society for some time. And while it provides a firm foundation for centuries of Christian teaching, it denies the depth, variety, and richness of this fascinating text. In A History of the Bible, John Barton argues that the Bible is not a prescription to a complete, fixed religious system, but rather a product of a long and intriguing process, which has inspired Judaism and Christianity, but still does not describe the whole of either religion. Barton shows how the Bible is indeed an important source of religious insight for Jews and Christians alike, yet argues that it must be read in its historical context--from its beginnings in myth and folklore to its many interpretations throughout the centuries. It is a book full of narratives, laws, proverbs, prophecies, poems, and letters, each with their own character and origin stories. Barton explains how and by whom these disparate pieces were written, how they were canonized (and which ones weren't), and how they were assembled, disseminated, and interpreted around the world--and, importantly, to what effect. Ultimately, A History of the Bible argues that a thorough understanding of the history and context of its writing encourages religious communities to move away from the Bible's literal wording--which is impossible to determine--and focus instead on the broader meanings of scripture.

What if what you know about religion and the end times is wrong, and that Islam and America are in Biblical prophecy. The Mahdi the messiah of Islam is the anti-Christ of Christianity. 'Izzat and 'Arif quote Ka'b al Ahbar as saying; I find the Mahdi recorded in the books of the Prophets;For instance, the Book of Revelation says; And I saw and behold a white horse. He that sat on him;went forth conquering and to conquer. Izzat and 'Arif then go on to say; it is clear that this man is the Mahdi who will ride the white horse and judge by the Qur'an, (Shari'ah law) Authority was given to them (the four horsemen of the apocalypse) over a fourth of the earth, to kill with sword; Revelation 6:8 There are 1.6 billion Muslims and they are a majority in forty-nine countries of the 196 countries in the world or 25% with a Muslim majority. Now these are the nations which the Lord left, to test Israel by them that is all who had not experienced any of the wars of Canaan; only in order that the generation of the sons of Israel might be taught war;These nations are; the five lords of the Philistines (today the southern portion of the Gaza Strip) and all the Canaanites (today the northern portion of the Gaza Strip and the West Bank) and the Sidonians (today the Golan Heights, Syria) and the Hivites who lived in Mount Lebanon, from Mount Baal-hermon as far as Lebo-hamath. (today Lebanon, Hezbollah) They were for testing Israel; Judges 3:1-4
