For those of you that love to study angels, both fallen and good, here is another must have resource that you should have in your library. I first bought a copy of A Dictionary of Angels, while I was in high school. Over the years I’ve referred to it many times for research, and sometimes just for the sake of reading it. I still haven’t read it all, but I’ve read quite a bit of it. The great part about the book is that it contains more than just the angels of Christianity and Judaism. Inside you’ll find angels from:

Judaism
Christianity
Islam
Hinduism
More…

In addition to giving you a list of angels, some with backgrounds that extend for a couple of pages, in the back you’ll find lesser known information such as:

Which angels are believed to rule which planets.
Which angels are believed to rule which months.
The hierarchy of angels from various cultures.

There are other areas that I strongly advise you avoid trying, such as the spell in the back that claims you can conjure a demon to do your bidding. Definitely not a great idea. If you know you like to dabble in magic, don’t buy the book because there are quite a few spells in the back, but for those like myself that have no trouble avoiding things like that, it is a great resource to have.

Re: UC Ministries – An Alien Gospel

This article is a reply to the article on the UC Ministries Blog titled: An Alien Gospel. Like many people that have been deceived by the modern church teaching on Genesis 6, the owner of the UC Ministries blog is no different. They teach and adhere to the false Sethite Theory, which state: Seth’s line was righteous (false), Cain’s line was evil (false), and they were not allowed to mix (false). That aside, there are some very misleading and outright false statements that appear on the UC Ministries blog.

“I find that almost always those who hold to this teaching do so because of an extra Biblical piece of literature called the BOOK OF ENOCH. Very rarely do people ever come to some of these conclusions simply on scripture alone.” – UC Ministries

This is a completely false statement. In fact, most people that I’ve encountered came to the belief that the sons of God were angels, long before they are introduced to the book of Enoch. Anyone that picks up a Bible without trying to twist meanings can clearly see that the phrase “sons of God” (b’nai ha Elohim – Hebrew) as used in the Old Testament only refers to angels.

The phrase also appears once in Aramaic and is found in the book of Daniel. It is through king Nebuchadnezzar that we learn that this “son of God” is an angel:

“He answered and said, Lo, I see four men loose, walking in the midst of the fire, and they have no hurt; and the form of the fourth is like the Son of God… Then Nebuchadnezzar spake, and said, Blessed be the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, who hath sent his angel, and delivered his servants that trusted in him, and have changed the king’s word, and yielded their bodies, that they might not serve nor worship any god, except their own God.” – Daniel 3:25 & 28

There is some dispute as to whether the Hebrew article should be translated as “the” or “a” son of God, but Nebuchadnezzar clearly says that the fourth man in the fire is an angel. The Aramaic phrase used here is: bar Eloha (son of God). I challenge the write of the UC Ministries blog to post a single example from the Old Testament that uses bar Eloha or B’nai ha Elohim to refer to anything other than angels.

“The more I look into this theology the stranger its gets. The ramifications of such a theory as I will show has far-reaching consequences. Scripture is twisted and changed to conform to an alien gospel built upon bible codes, new age teachings, Egyptian hieroglyphics, astrological charts, alien revelations and wild leaps of fantasies.” – UC Ministries

This is 100% false. According to the previous statement, the book of Enoch was used. Both of these statements can’t be true since the Book of Enoch was widely used before the alien gospel was being preached as it is now. In fact, the alien gospel attempts to use Enoch and the Bible to validate itself, not the other way around. The mere mention of Bible codes shows the authors lack of critical thinking or even basic historical knowledge. The Book of Enoch and pretty much every other story on earth pertaining to Genesis 6 predates the Bible Code hysteria by thousands of years. In order to even accept this absurd statement, we must believe that the Bible Codes were widely in use during the 2^nd Temple Period.

Egyptian hieroglyphics (false), astrological charts (false), and alien revelations (false) are all listed in the comment, but none f them have anything to do with the belief that the sons of God are angels. If it wasn’t so sad to see grown people making up this stuff and misleading people, it might actually be funny.

“There seems to be an almost unbelievable obsession with the idea that fallen angels are out to have sex with women. It never occurs to them for a moment that angels can’t produce the goods. Whilst we are quickly told that Angels can appear and even eat food. Eating is a long way from having the ability to reproduce and have children.” – UC Ministries

The actual assumption here is that angels CAN’T produce children with human women. The Bible says no such thing on any page in either the Old or New Testaments. It says the angels of God IN HEAVEN don’t get married (paraphrase). Not getting married does not = physically incapable of having sex. That’s a baseless church tradition.

“Those who hold to this theory are unable to realize that if mankind is the product of angelic interference, then man is absolved from his sin. Man can then be personified as the helpless victim rather than the perpetrator.” – UC Ministries

Those that hold this theory NEVER make the claim that mankind is the product of angelic interference. This single statement shows that the author has not put any actual study time into the subject and is speaking out of complete ignorance.

“In the world of the new age there are proponents of ideas that this world was seeded by aliens, and these aliens will soon come back to save the planet, But notice that if you tweak this new age philosophy by giving it a religious tone, you come up with the same message about the sons of God producing giants. It’s really the same message!!!” – UC Ministries

It’s sad to see someone teetering on the tip of truth, but doesn’t even realize that it is New Age that has transformed angels into aliens in order to avoid the Biblical implications of what is going on. It is the exact same message, but those of us that believe the angel view did not steal it from them. They stole it from the Bible and other past cultures. With that said, the part about aliens “seeding” the world is specifically New Age and nobody that I’ve encountered that holds the angel view believes the entire world and life was started by angels.

“It’s all about experimentation on humans and producing a hybrid being that is not quite human and not quite alien. Many of those who hold to these theories will produce articles in an attempt to debunk the new age message, yet all the while embracing a religious view that embraces it.” – UC Ministries

Another lie stemming from lack of research. The angel view is much older than the New Age version of the teaching. New Age embraces the Bible, not the other way around. The entire point of the flood was because there was tampering with genetics going on. Unfortunately, the authors brain won’t let them assemble all of the evidence into the truth that is clearly before his face. They have turned to the Sethite fable even though all evidence stacks up against it.

“The sad reality as you read through the columns of articles by those who hold to the fallen angel’s theory is that they do indeed elevate those forces onto an equal standing.” – UC Ministries

I’d love for the author to back this claim with a single link to a well known Christian author that even remotely elevates the fallen angels on equal standing with God or his forces. They are powerful, but not equal. This statement is 100% false and false on purpose.

“We are told quite clearly that the fallen angels who fell away from God were indeed locked up and imprisoned until the final judgment… But if they were locked up how could there be Giants afterwards?” – UC Ministries

Possibly one of the most unintelligent questions, even though I’m sure the author thinks its clever. He even quotes Jude 1:6, which refers to the angels that sinned being locked up. The author ASSUMES this refers to all angels. If they were familiar with their Bible, they’d be asking why Satan wasn’t locked up with the other angels that sinned. They’d also be asking why he isn’t locked up until Revelation 20:1-3? If the leader of the fallen angels wasn’t locked up for sin, it makes no sense to lock up the rest. There is clearly something else that Jude is referring to, but what could it be? If the author had done any actual research, they would know that this is the exact verse where Jude references the Book of Enoch. The book of Enoch is one of only a few Hebrew texts that reference fallen angels being bound for sexual sins. The Book of Jubilees mentions it as well.

“The term WATCHERS is used by the book of Enoch to describe angels.. However notice that in order to get around scripture, there has to be a long list of angelic rebellions to fill in the missing pieces. No where do we see such continuous rebellions occurring.” – UC Ministries

The book of Daniel (4:13 & 4:23) also uses the term Watcher to refer to angels, but the author doesn’t know that or intentionally fails to mention it in order to further mislead people about the angel theory. The author then misrepresents the theory by making a reference to multiple rebellions. These acts by the fallen angels were extensions of the initial rebellion, not new rebellions. When Satan killed off Job’s family, he didn’t rebel again, he was continuing his role as the angel that had already rebelled. Likewise, angels that had already fallen would attempt to wipe out creation by tampering with it.

“So that today anyone who has a genetic problem can be accused as being the product of some angelic molestation. This was recently posted by an advocate of this theory.” – UC Ministries

I agree that it is ridiculous to point out every genetic flaw as a sign of angelic involvement, but the author is specifically referring to people with six fingers on each hand and six toes on each foot. While again, it is wrong to apply a blanket statement to this, at least the argument is Biblically based because the Bible mentions the hybrids having six fingers on each hand and six toes on each foot.

“And there was yet a battle in Gath, where was a man of great stature, that had on every hand six fingers, and on every foot six toes, four and twenty in number; and he also was born to the giant.” – 2 Samuel 21:20

You’d think that someone that claims to have done their research would know that, but again, the author attempts to mislead people into believing it’s not based on scripture or that they have actually done their homework. Neither of which is true.

“But also that these people who they claim are Nephilim cannot be saved. For them there is no salvation, No grace and no redemption for them. If they die their lefts over bits become demons. They are therefore beyond the pale of God power to save. Is this the Gospel that Jesus shared? That one can only be saved providing that you are racially pure? Suddenly the issue becomes one of racial purity. Who among us can say that were are racially pure according to their theory? Can anyone then be saved?” – UC Ministries

Unlike Serpent Seed, the angel theory teaches that HUMANS can be saved and ANGELS cannot be saved. Christ did not become an angel human hybrid to save angel human hybrids. There is also no reference to a single hybrid even attempting to be saved. In addition to that, thinking someone is a hybrid and them actually being a hybrid are two different things. Either someone is a hybrid or they aren’t. If they believe in Christ, it doesn’t matter what anyone thinks. If they are human they are saved.

Then there is the nonsense mention of “racial purity” which is an outright lie. The theory is about HUMAN RACIAL purity, as in purely of the HUMAN RACE, not based on skin color or ethnicity as the writer is trying to imply. The author is deceiving his audience into believing that the angel theory is about race and not about being 100% human. You must be human to be saved. The author is welcome to show us in scripture where angels and demons can obtain salvation if they can find the verse to prove so.

“Suddenly we are introduced a planet called Rahab, Lucifer’s home planet, which they believe might be what the asteroid belt was. How do they come to that conclusion? Through Bible codes, which is another very unreliable method of divination of the scriptures.” – UC Ministries

Not all of us adhere to this belief as the author of this completely false article would have people believe. It’s a blanket statement that isn’t true in the least bit.

The rest of the article goes on to make more false blanket statements about angels hiding in the asteroid belt and then there is a crack taken at who I assume is L.A. Marzulli, even though the author of the article isn’t man or woman enough to even mention who they are referring to:

“However all of this lunacy presents another problem and that its indirectly attacks the nature and sovereignty of God. Now to show that is not just a coincidence. One writer who has published a book on the subjects tries to use a chess board to illustrate the different players… Here God is presented as the king piece, and Lucifer is the other king piece. Does the Bible present Lucifer as God’s equal? Then what of Jesus? He is presented as being a mere Knight on the board, and his counterpart on the other side and his equal is Beelzebub.” – UC Ministries

Here is one single fact that lays the argument to who the sons of God are to rest, if people choose to believe scripture:

“But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:” – John 1:12

The simple fact is that it is a belief in Christ as the Savior of mankind that gave us the “power to become the sons of God.” Unless the author is ready to say that Seth was a Christian, then the fact is, people were not who Genesis 6 is referring to when we see the phrase “sons of God”.

The Origin of Demons – Part 3

This is another excerpt from my upcoming book, Beyond Flesh and Blood. As always, some of the information may change during the editing process, but feel free to leave any comments you have on the subject.

I Will Be Like The Most High

For those that have been conditioned their entire lives to believe that hybrids are the stuff that mythology is made of, the above information may not hold much weight. It does not seem like these hybrids were being created for no reason. There actually seems to be a very valid reason for fallen angels, especially Lucifer, to attempt to create a hybrid creature.

“For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north: I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High.” – Isaiah 14:13-14

Lucifer’s ambition was to be like God in every way possible. In order to reach this goal, it was necessary for him to mimic what God had already created. The problem with hybrids is not that they appear all over the world in the myths and legends of other cultures, it’s that they appear in the Bible as guardians of God’s throne. It is possible that Satan was trying to copy creatures that were made by God.

“Also out of the midst thereof came the likeness of four living creatures. And this was their appearance; they had the likeness of a man. And every one had four faces, and every one had four wings. And their feet were straight feet; and the sole of their feet was like the sole of a calf’s foot: and they sparkled like the colour of burnished brass. And they had the hands of a man under their wings on their four sides; and they four had their faces and their wings. Their wings were joined one to another; they turned not when they went; they went every one straight forward. As for the likeness of their faces, they four had the face of a man, and the face of a lion, on the right side: and they four had the face of an ox on the left side; they four also had the face of an eagle.” – Ezekiel 1:5-10

While it is not an exact description of the Shedu that the Assyrians were worshiping, there are several similarities that stand out:

Calf’s Foot
Multiple Wings
Face of a Man

Is this a coincidence or is this proof that the hybrids of mythology have their origins in Lucifer’s attempt to “be like the Most High?” This is where spiritual warfare crosses over into the physical realm. It is entirely possible that when we look at the carving of a Shedu, we are looking back into a period of history in which abominations conjured in the mind of Lucifer and the other fallen angels, actually walked the Earth. Even more disturbing is that science is actively pursuing the creation of animal/human hybrids much like those mentioned in the myths and legends throughout history.

The Origin Of Demons – Part 2

The Origin of The Sa’iyr

The Sa’iyr are an interesting group of spiritual beings because, like the Shed, they too were considered to be hybrids. Here is how the Strong’s Concordance defines the word Sa’iyr:

Sa’iyr (Hebrew) – Satyr, Faun, He-Goat, Shaggy

The origin of the word Sa’iyr is sa’ar (to shiver, be horribly afraid), which we went over previously. Stories of Fauns and Satyrs are most prominent in the myths and legends of other cultures, but here we find a reference to the same creatures in the Old Testament. So what exactly are Fauns and Satyrs?

“The faun is a half human – half goat (from the head to the waist being the human half, but with the addition of goat’s horns) manifestation of forest and animal spirits which would help or hinder humans at whim. Romans believed fauns inspired fear in men traveling in lonely, remote or wild places.”

As we have seen, the origin of the Satyr beliefs have their root in the Hebrew word for fear. Over a thousand years later, the Romans held the same belief that these hybrid creatures struck fear in the hearts of men that traveled alone. The Hebrews feared these creatures and as a result, also worshiped and made sacrifices to them.

“And they shall no more offer their sacrifices unto devils, after whom they have gone a whoring. This shall be a statute for ever unto them throughout their generations.” – Leviticus 17:7

The words God uses, while speaking to Moses, in the above verse are interesting because it provides a link between the Sa’iyr and another legend surrounding these creatures. God refers to the people “whoring” after the Sa’iyr. The Hebrew word used is zanah, which is translated as prostitute, whore, whoring, and fornication in the Old Testament. Much of the Church teaching on fornication has been diluted down to only mean sex. However, throughout the Bible, there is a strong connection between fornication and pagan worship. In every legend of Fauns and Satyrs, they are well known for their sexual escapades with human women and sometimes men.

“Satyrs are described as roguish but faint-hearted folk, subversive and dangerous, yet shy and cowardly.As Dionysiac creatures they are lovers of wine and women, and they are ready for every physical pleasure.”[2]

Among the list of activities in Satyr mythology, is their associating with music, dancing, playfulness, and orgies. The Old Testament actually contains a reference that associates the Satyr with dancing.

“But wild beasts of the desert shall lie there; and their houses shall be full of doleful creatures; and owls shall dwell there, and satyrs shall dance there.” – Isaiah 13:21

The word translated as Satyrs in the above verse is the same word translated as devils in Leviticus 17:7. This leads us back to the question, “were stories of these creatures more than just myth and legend?” As we continue digging into the Sa’iyr, we encounter one in particular that is said to be the origin of the word “pandemonium”.

“Pan aided his foster-brother in the battle with the Titans by letting out a horrible screech and scattering them in terror.”

According to legend, it was this scream of Pan that led to pan-demonium among his rivals. The Greek word daimonium refers to being under the influence of a demon. Pandemonium literally translates as “under the demonic control of Pan”. The story of Pan is linked to a great battle for the heavens in the Greek culture, but when we look deeper into the Hebrew culture, we find a similar story of a fallen angel by the name of Azazel. The name Azazel was used in the movie, Fallen, starring Denzel Washington. In the movie, Azazel was presented as woodland demon that had the power to possess humans and animals. Surprisingly, we find mention of Azazel in the Bible in association with sin and goats.

“And Aaron shall cast lots upon the two goats; one lot for the LORD, and the other lot for the scapegoat.” – Leviticus 16:8

It is important to point out that this particular goat was not the fallen angel in question. The Hebrew word translated as scapegoat is Azazel, which means, “the goat that has gone astray.” The story of Azazel is actually a very old Hebrew belief that does not come from the Bible, but from events that they believe happened prior to Noah’s flood.

“Azazel is represented in the Book of Enoch as one of the leaders of the rebellious Watchers in the time preceding the flood; he taught men the art of warfare, of making swords, knives, shields, and coats of mail, and women the art of deception by ornamenting the body, dying the hair, and painting the face and the eyebrows, and also revealed to the people the secrets of witchcraft and corrupted their manners, leading them into wickedness and impurity; until at last he was, at the Lord’s command, bound hand and foot by the archangel Raphael and chained to the rough and jagged rocks of [Ha] Duduael (= Beth Ḥadudo), where he is to abide in utter darkness until the great Day of Judgment, when he will be cast into the fire to be consumed forever.”

This particular belief comes from 1 Enoch, which was hidden in Qumran, along with other books of the Bible. 1 Enoch also appears in the Ethiopian Bible and many other early translations. It was also a very popular book during the 2^nd Temple period, and is referenced by both Peter and Jude. While it is not considered scripture, both Jews and early Christians considered this book to be a very important book that reflected early beliefs about Noah’s flood. Did the creation of Satyrs begin with a fallen angel that rebelled against God? While we can’t say for sure, it seems to fit the motive of fallen angels that want to corrupt all of God’s creation.

The Origin Of Demons – Part 1

The Origin of The Shed

The Shed were well known throughout the Middle East as powerful spirits. The first place in the Bible that we encounter the Shed is in reference to Israel worshiping them.

“They sacrificed unto devils (Shed), not to God; to gods whom they knew not, to new gods that came newly up, whom your fathers feared not.” – Deuteronomy 32:17

The deeper we look into the words of Moses, the stranger the entire verse becomes. The first thing that we notice is that sacrifices are being made to these Shed by the Israelites. The second aspect to this strange scenario is that Moses points out that these were new “gods” that not even their fathers feared. In order to keep this in perspective, we have to remember that the Israelites had just been freed from Egypt, where they worshipped many different gods. The Shed were completely different than the gods that were worshiped in Egypt. Moses also tells us that they were “new gods that came newly up”.

New – Chadash (Hebrew) – New thing, something new.

Not only were the Hebrews sacrificing to these Shed, Moses points out that their fathers did not fear them. This seems to imply that the Israelites may have had a genuine fear of the Shed that did not exist in previous generations. Let’s take a look at the word used for fear in Hebrew.

Fear – Sa’ar (Hebrew) – to shiver, to be horribly afraid.

The Israelites were much more than scared; the English equivalent to the word sa’ar would be terrified. Not only were they terrified, but it is in the book of Psalms that we find out just how terrified they were and what kind of sacrifices they were making to the Shed.

“Yea, they sacrificed their sons and their daughters unto devils,” – Psalm 106:37

The Israelites were so scared that they began to sacrifice their own sons and daughters. What kind of entity would make a person so fearful that they would kill their own flesh and blood in a sacrifice? Unfortunately, the Bible does not give us a description of these entities, but there was another culture in the area, that were worshipers of the Shed and kept very detailed records of them, including carvings and depictions.

The Assyrians and Babylonians worshiped creatures known as the Shedu. Both cultures were closely connected and spoke the Semitic language Akkadian, which was very similar to ancient Hebrew. According to the beliefs at the time, the Lamassu (female) and the Shedu (male) was the same creature. These beings were depicted in the following manner:

According to the Assyrian and Babylonian cultures, the Shedu were hybrids with the body of a bull, wings of an eagle, and the head of a man. Stories of hybrid creatures generally appear in two time periods: very ancient history and modern times. As we continue digging into the origin of demons, we will see that there is a very strong connection between demons and hybrid creatures.

The Context of Matthew 24:37

Over the last few months there has been a lot of heated back and forth over the text in Matthew 24. Some people claim that Jesus was only stating that things would be going on as usual, which makes absolutely no sense if you read the story of Noah. Nothing was usual at all. In my opinion, anyone holding this view is completely ignoring scripture in order to hold onto their own theory. That is known as private interpretation and it’s not Biblical at all.

What I find to be interesting is how much stuff is sitting right in front of our faces, yet we skip over it all the time. If we stay true to the Biblical text, we can indeed see that Jesus was including angels in His end time prophecy.

“But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.” – Matthew 24:36

While verse 37 is the most debated, the verse before it goes largely ignored by people on both sides of the issue. Jesus is clearly saying that NO MAN or ANGELS know the day or the hour of His coming. This is very important to keep in mind if we are going to stay within the context of what is being said.

“But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.” – Matthew 24:37

Contrary to popular belief, Noah’s story doesn’t end at the flood. It starts in Genesis 5 and ends in Genesis 11. The entire scope of my book, As The Days of Noah Were, is based on these seven chapters in Genesis so I won’t go back over that information here. In verse 37, Jesus is referencing events that most researchers agree involved the union of angels with human women. So far Jesus has clearly referenced angels and humans in one verse and an event involving angels and humans in another.

“For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark,” – Matthew 24:38

Anyone actually attempting to research the truth in scripture would have already turned to Genesis and re-read the Noah story for clarity. While we don’t find any reference to eating and drinking, we can safely assume that eating and drinking was going on. The marriage issue is another story altogether. In Genesis 6:1-4 we find the reference to the “sons of God” (angels) marrying the daughters of Adam (human women). Once again, Jesus references events concerning humans mixing with angels.

“And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.” – Matthew 24:39

Most researchers agree that the flood wiped out everyone except Noah and his family. Most researchers agree that the angels that participated in the pre-flood events were bound in Tartarus (2 Peter 2:4). The question now becomes, “how and when were they rounded up and imprisoned?” If we are staying completely in context, the “they” being mentioned over and over again by Jesus and scripture refer to both angels and humans. Jesus clearly says that the flood took them all away, but how is it possible for the flood to wipe out angels? Let’s step outside of the Bible very briefly in order to demonstrate something strange found on a Babylonian tablet.

“The gods feared the deluge.” – “Gilgamesh XI, 113

I personally believe that all the gods of mythology were the fallen ones posing in order to obtain worship and re-direct it from God. What we have is Jesus making the statement that the flood took them ALL away (humans, angels, Nephilim). Why would angels/gods fear the flood? Jude may provide some strange insight into what happened before Noah’s time.

“And the angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, he hath reserved in everlasting chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great day.” – Jude 1:6

I’ve touched on the Greek word oiketerion before, which refers to a spiritual body. It is translated in Jude 1:6 as “habitation”. The only other place in scripture that the word is used is 2 Corinthians 5:1, while Paul is referring to spiritual bodies that believers long to put on. How did the angels remove their spiritual body? I have no idea and anyone telling you that it is impossible is providing their own speculation at best. Regardless of how they managed to pull this off, scripture says that they did pull it off. Here is where I speculate a little myself. If they altered or did away with their angelic state, they likely become something very similar to humans. In this altered state they may have been incapable of escaping the great flood, which would explain why the flood wiped them out and the Babylonian tablet makes the claim that they feared the flood. Again, this part is speculation, but it seems to make sense in context to what was going on. If you want to take your research a step further, there are two more questions that come from all of this:

Can angels die?
Where do angels go when they die?

The above two questions are discussed in greater detail in my upcoming book, Beyond Flesh and Blood. In conclusion, only someone that completely ignores scripture can make the claim that Olivet Discourse isn’t talking about angels mixing with humans. Christ did not make any exceptions to the days of Noah and every reference surround verse 37 references both humans and angels. If you are following a ministry that isn’t teaching what the Bible says or is stripping the context of what it is referring to, you have the right to question them about it. If they are basing their teaching on personal beliefs, traditions, etc. that does not equal scripture and never will.

As The Days Of Noah Were – Feedback

First I’d like to thank everyone that has left feedback on my book, As The Days of Noah Were: The Sons of God and The Coming Apocalypse. I’d also like to thank all of you that have purchased and read the book so far. It is very appreciated.

For those of you that have read it, I’d like to ask you to leave your reviews and comments on Amazon.com. If you haven’t bought the book yet, here are a few reviews that it has received so far:

“This book takes the reader to a deeper look into many misunderstood passages from the Bible. I have read this book twice and I have recommended many friends to pick up a copy for themselves. Minister Fortson takes a deep forensic study of the history of angels and the way human see them. It open up many discussion with my friends about what others call mythology may be true. History has a way of masking the angelic presence if you don’t what you are looking for. I recommend this book to anyone that is ready for a little meat of the word. Great job! I cannot wait for the next book.” – Tavare Hill

“Interesting and well explained. Though this goes totally against all I was taught growing up it has given me allot to think about. There are so many places in scripture that just didn’t make much sense to me. M.F.’s explanation does make these passages fit better. But I still have allot of study to do before being totally convinced. I mean, you really have to open your mind up to even consider it. But There are many other supporting writings as well. Like I said, allot to think, and pray about. But I do suggest you read it with an open mind. So if ET does show up you won’t be caught off guard.” – Carol Motsinger

“Wonderful book! Can’t say enough good things about it. It totally opened my eyes to so many things I couldn’t explain. I had a ton of questions about the flood and giants that no one could answer for me until now. He added numerous brushstrokes to the big picture. I’ve passed this book around the entire family so they will know what’s coming.” – Tracy L. Buford

“If you want to have your cookie-cutter Sunday School faith and not be challenged to think – do not buy this book! I enjoyed this book and the basic Bible research coupled with outside sources. The authors’ world-view is very broad but based on the Bible. The book is very very complete – to the point of “ok, get on with it” but I respect the author because most have not read as widely or researched. The meat is in the final chapters and while there are some inconsistency’s – it is all 100% based on the Bible. (I know I said that before) Referenced and cross referenced – it is an excellent compendium of “interesting” yet little discussed in church verses in the Bible and the authors unique but well researched opinion. Good Book! worth the $$ and the author corresponds with the reader if you have a question.” – Billybob Cornfed

Reverse Seed Sowing Campaign

In February I’m launching my Reverse Seed Sowing campaign. Normally a ministry will ask you to sow a seed in order to receive some kind of blessing in the future. My campaign works a little bit different. The only seed you need to sow is your time (30-60 second per day) and I will give you 50% of the profit from my book, As The Days of Noah Were. More details coming in February.

Round Table #1

If you missed last week’s round table on The Omega Hour, you missed a great show. The round table consisted of the following individuals:

Minister Dante Fortson
