It is 1869 in America, and a group of Scillian immigrants have arrived on its shores, escaping from charges of murder in their home country. They form an organization called the Black Hand Gang, which becomes the modern-day Mafia. By using bribery, blackmail, and extortion, they gain control of contracts with the United States government and eventually gain so much power and influence they use it to decide who will become the president of the United States and control the government from the shadows and assassinate anyone who defies them, including the president.
...A nonpartisan hall of shame featuring the idiotic utterances, ridiculous slogans, mixed metaphors, and lame excuses that have fallen from the mouths of our fearless leaders around the world, and from the present and past (because stupidity knows no age).
This book explains from a neutral point of view, by the perspective of the Christian philosopher, professor and editor Milco Baute (who is neither a Democrat nor a Republican), the reasons why God and the citizens in most of the nation's states chose to Donald Trump as president. A personal investigation and through the opinions of many people of the two parties, registered independent, minor parties and unaffiliated to a specific party. Ten fundamental reasons why a man like Trump without experience as a politician, entrepreneur, ex-democrat and public celebrity, with his arrogant and despotic character, comes by God's will and election of the voters, to be the president of the the most powerful nation in the world. Written a year after being elected president of the United States of America.
Christianity is in crisis. We live in a time when millions of people profoundly misunderstand the message of the Gospel. They believe that being a Christian means little more than being a nice person. They view Jesus as a wise moral teacher who showed us how to live better lives, and they conclude that the love of humanity is our greatest cause and its progress our primary purpose. Whatever else may be said of this view of Christianity, it is certainly not what Jesus taught. It is an attempt to replace the concepts of sin, redemption, and salvation with the more socially acceptable virtues of tolerance, compassion, and social progress. It elevates humanity and the world above God and his kingdom and reduces Jesus to a mere moral philosopher. But who did Jesus say he was? What was the essential message of Christ? The Gospel According to Christ answers those questions by examining the words of Jesus, in their context and in their entirety. The answers will be shocking to many Christians.

Originally published in Spanish, Curbelo’s The History of the Mormons in Argentina is a groundbreaking book detailing the growth of the Church in this Latin American country. Through numerous interviews and access to other primary resources, Curbelo has constructed a timeline, and then documents the story of the Church’s growth. Starting with a brief discussion of Parley P. Pratt’s assignment to preside over the Pacific and South American regions, continuing on with the translation of the scriptures into Spanish, the opening of the first missions in South America, and the building of temples, the book provides a survey history of the Church in Argentina. This book will be of interest not only to history buffs but also to thousands of past, present, and future missionaries. Translated by Erin Jennings
