Jahiliyyah! - Before They Knew God
ADULT CHRISTIAN MEN ONLY! (Please order this ONLY AFTER having read "God Becomes Man.") Our adversary in the Middle East is using their religion as a military ordnance. Our secular government cannot dabble in religious matters. But the Constitution does not protect hostile ordnance in a foreign war, so We the People are free to address the religious questions. What horrid conditions in ancient Mecca compelled Muhammad to act and to speak so vehemently while advancing a new faith, that today's Muslim thugs can reference him as their highest authority? Are they misrepresenting their Prophet to us and to their own people? If Muhammad were not so desperate to put a stop to the horrid situation in Mecca, would he have preferred to advance Christianity? In order to form alliances with the neighboring cities to conquer his own hometown and his own tribe, how did Muhammad have to compromise his own faith? Muhammad was desperately disgusted, and as you read this, you will know how he felt.
The Penitent Thief
PART III: "The Penitent Thief" will offer many insights into the drama surrounding the crucifixion of Jesus. From the baptism by John, to Jesus' last words from the cross, you will see how precisely Jesus fulfilled the Law and the prophets. Here is the politics and the penury of how the world's greatest mission was concluded, with pragmatic characters in the material world. This third installment of the four Gospel novels in the "God Becomes Man" series will offer answers with depth and clarity to many questions that still trouble us today. Skeptics and cynics will appreciate the reality depicted in this story, and every reader will be able to find a more familiar bond with Jesus, without sacrificing any reverence.

God Becomes Man: A Complete PG-13 Realistic Gospel Romance Adventure Story of Jesus, the Nazarene
With this HANDY 6x9" edition, your teenager will be thrilled to discover how Jesus might have spent his youth in preparation to become the Messiah. This faux biography of Jesus reconstructs the historic settings in which Jesus lived as one of us. The "missing years" are an interpolation of the birth story and his mission. The characters are presented with mundane motives and concerns, offering familiarity to the Believer and relevance to those in doubt. This set of four Gospel novels depicts the Trinity at work as God prepares His son to deal with his own flesh in this material world. As you preview the carefully worded sexual passages, your eyes will open to the modern dilemma that young people face today. You will recognize the Holy Spirit's voice, as God molds and forges Jesus in the same way that Jesus can mold and forge you. Both the humanity of Jesus and his divinity are portrayed in this romantic story of the adventure that Jesus began - an adventure that continues to this day.
Simon's Own Cross
None
The Puzzled Priests
PART II: PG-17 ADULT TEXT! 18+ONLY. This story is an interpolation of the Biblical nativity and crucifixion reports. This is plausibly how Jesus grew up and was trained for his mission by his Father in heaven. Please read the other three novels in the "God Becomes Man" series first, in order to grasp the realistic settings and the pragmatic characters portrayed in this Gospel dramatization. You'll sense the meaning of "God is with us" and the full humanity of Jesus as God in the image of man, begotten out of heaven and captive in his own flesh. This most speculative and controversial of the four Gospel novels can help you to establish a more familiar bond with Jesus based on the flesh he shared with us. Although vulgarity is avoided, this novel depicts the learning adventures of growing up, with sexual exposures and experiences that are not recommended for children. With allusions as earthy as the Bible itself, parents should preview this novel before sharing it with their children.
1983
1983 was a great year for America. In 1983, President Reagan found what President Nixon had been looking for. The stock market began a historic bull run, and a thousand students were rescued from Grenada before being taken hostage by a new Communist regime. But it was a lousy year for me. I'd been framed for an arson by the same crowd that had tried to kill me in 1970. I should never have gotten mixed up with them. But in the long run, it's a good thing that I did. Let me tell you how all of this "teflon" happened. And while I'm at it, I'll tell you some of the things I learned about drugs and gambling and homosexuality and suicide and the "cultural revolution" and the Mafia Commission and the Vietnam war and how Communism nearly took over America. It's an adventure that I'm ashamed of, but I can't help being proud of having been part of something so historic, so important, so BIG! Join me in this adventure, and America will never look the same to you.
Mary and Early Christian Women
This book is open access under a CC BY-NC-ND license. This book reveals exciting early Christian evidence that Mary was remembered as a powerful role model for women leaders—women apostles, baptizers, and presiders at the ritual meal. Early Christian art portrays Mary and other women clergy serving as deacon, presbyter/priest, and bishop. In addition, the two oldest surviving artifacts to depict people at an altar table inside a real church depict women and men in a gender-parallel liturgy inside two of the most important churches in Christendom—Old Saint Peter’s Basilica in Rome and the second Hagia Sophia in Constantinople. Dr. Kateusz’s research brings to light centuries of censorship, both ancient and modern, and debunks the modern imagination that from the beginning only men were apostles and clergy.
