Christs Saints

Two years into his term as President of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, John Taylor published Mediation and Atonement. As you listen to John Taylor's Mediation and Atonement, we hope that you receive his prophetic witness of the Lord's sublime act of redemption and can come to prophesy of its reality and supreme importance. In other words, we hope that you come closer to becoming a prophet of the Lord's atonement.

Anne Catherine Emmerich was born in Germany in 1774. As a child she believed that angels, saints, and the Holy Family visited and talked with her as she worked in the fields. At twenty-four, she had her first mystic vision of the sufferings of Christ, accompanied by stigmata and bleeding as if from the crown of thorns. At twenty-nine, she became an Augustinian nun and continued to have visions and stigmata. In her visions, she recounted scenes from the life of Christ, which she seemed to have witnessed.

From the pulpit of the cross, Christ gave His final and most riveting sermon: His seven last words. In times past, Christ frequently spoke in parables, but no more. No, Christ penned these words with His royal blood like a calligrapher using the most delicate of strokes. Christʼs seven last words are the greatest utterances ever recorded in the history of the world—greater than the words of any esteemed orator, heroic leader, or even saint, because they were the last words of God to mankind.

All Loves Excelling is John Bunyan's sermon on Ephesians 3:18-19: "That ye...may be able to comprehend with all saints, what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height; and to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge." It was first titled The Saints' Knowledge of Christ's Love, is worthy of being ranked alongside Sibbes, and deals with a much neglected subject area.

Can you answer this question: Who is the Antichrist and what is the Apocalypse? The earliest Christians following the Twelve Apostles often spoke and wrote about the arrival of the Antichrist before the return of Jesus Christ at the end of time.

Quoi qu'en disent les pragmatiques à outrance, les utilitaires, ce que l'Homme cherche tout le long de sa vie, ce qu'il poursuit plus que le pain et tout le bien-être matériel, c'est le savoir. L'essence même de notre vie est de tendre non pas à être mieux, mais à être plus. Or, un instinct plus fort que toutes les remontrances des sceptiques et des faux sages nous en avertit : pour être plus, il faut d'abord que nous sachions plus.

In May of 2013, Max and Joyce Eliason entrusted their estate valued in excess of $250 million to the LDS law firm of Kirton McConkie located in Salt Lake City, Utah. They did so with the belief that their estate rich in oil properties was just as safe as the millions of dollars they had paid in tithes and offerings over the 59 years they were married. What has followed is the most criminal and heinous display of corruption which has led to Kirton McConkie and the leaders of the LDS Church unable to account for $1.00.

The Roman legions quit Britannia in 410 AD with the Roman emperor Honorius advising them to "look to their own defenses." This was too good to be true for so many warring despots seeking kingships and plunder in a divided land. In the centuries that followed one such man was the Pendragon, an unmerciful tyrant whose cruelty stretched the most barbaric warrior's imagination. What this king, along with a few demonic, wannbe wizards, did not bank on was a man who thought - "I'll fight back, to the death, if need be." The courageous rebel had something special up his sleeve - his arrows never ...

This book is different from other books about the Latter-day Saints (LDS) in at least two ways. First, it focuses on details of LDS doctrine that are relatively unknown, even to church members. Second, because its purpose is to inform, not persuade, it presents these details in a neutral, unflinching, warts-and-all way. The listener can then decide for him or herself what to believe.

Lingering Human Spirits Unraveling the Mystery Old ways of thinking often are slow to change. It takes radical engagement to bring about needed change. Revelation always brings revolution and the revelation contained in this book is truly revolutionary! This is not a concept conceived by the author, but Dr. Ron Horner carefully unveils a mystery lost shortly after the early church. It is not a sci-fi book. It is based in a realm of reality of an unusual nature–a dimension of the unseen. This mystery involves how human spirits still lingering on the earth long after their human host has ...
