A New York Times Book Review Editors’ Choice Selection A history with sweeping implications, American Messiahs challenges our previous misconceptions about “cult” leaders and their messianic power. Mania surrounding messianic prophets has defined the national consciousness since the American Revolution. From Civil War veteran and virulent anticapitalist Cyrus Teed, to the dapper and overlooked civil rights pioneer Father Divine, to even the megalomaniacal Jim Jones, these figures have routinely been dismissed as dangerous and hysterical outliers. After years of studying these emblematic figures, Adam Morris demonstrates that messiahs are not just a classic trope of our national culture; their visions are essential for understanding American history. As Morris demonstrates, these charismatic, if flawed, would-be prophets sought to expose and ameliorate deep social ills—such as income inequality, gender conformity, and racial injustice. Provocative and long overdue, this is the story of those who tried to point the way toward an impossible “American Dream”: men and women who momentarily captured the imagination of a nation always searching for salvation.

A timely and galvanizing work that examines how right-wing evangelical Christians have veered from an admirable faith to a pernicious, destructive ideology. Today’s right-wing Evangelical Christianity stands as the very antithesis of the message of Jesus Christ. In his new book, Christians Against Christianity, best-selling author and religious scholar Obery M. Hendricks Jr. challenges right-wing evangelicals on the terrain of their own religious claims, exposing the falsehoods, contradictions, and misuses of the Bible that are embedded in their rabid homophobia, their poorly veiled racism and demonizing of immigrants and Muslims, and their ungodly alliance with big business against the interests of American workers. He scathingly indicts the religious leaders who helped facilitate the rise of the notoriously unchristian Donald Trump, likening them to the “court jesters” and hypocritical priestly sycophants of bygone eras who unquestioningly supported their sovereigns’ every act, no matter how hateful or destructive to those they were supposed to serve. In the wake of the deadly insurrectionist attack on the US Capitol, Christians Against Christianity is a clarion call to stand up to the hypocrisy of the evangelical Right, as well as a guide for Christians to return their faith to the life-affirming message that Jesus brought and died for. What Hendricks offers is a provocative diagnosis, an urgent warning that right-wing evangelicals’ aspirations for Christian nationalist supremacy are a looming threat, not only to Christian decency but to democracy itself. What they offer to America is anything but good news.

This book was originally written by Ibn Kathir over 1300 years ago in many languages. Many writers copied his writing. All of Ibn Kathir's books can be found in Mecca's Library. He has written over 60,000 pages and he was blind. Amazing! In recent times things have become very confusing and we have begun to see in book stores and on websites speculations about future events. Sometimes you hear about the appearance of the false Messiah, sometimes you hear that the final battle between the Good and the Evil is close at hand, other time you hear something happening in the East or in the West. So, learn about the Final hour and it signs by reading this book which is backed by proofs from the Quran, Bible, and the Torah.

Pumphrey discusses how Christians can distinguish false prophets from true prophets in a timely fashion. According to the author, more than 1,000 false Christs appeared in the 20th century. (Christian)

Her name is MiMi. And she is convinced it's her God-given mission to abandon middle-class America and create a commune for like-minded women in the desert in Israel. Told in MiMi's voice, she describes her special relationship with God as she moves from the mixed-religion home of her early childhood to Orthodox Judaism in her teens, to the establishment and development of her cult. MiMi looks to the women in her life, in the Bible, and in other ancient texts, weaving modern and biblical dilemmas, as she shapes a truly unique place for her followers and herself. When her life and utopian community grow more turbulent and even violent, she questions her mission. Deeply affecting, Memoirs of a False Messiah is the richly told story of one woman's struggle to reach perfection in an imperfect world.
