They were not all giants many were very animal like while many looked normal and they have slowly bread out the obvious mutations. Goliath and his four brothers, the occupants of Canaan. The myths of many nations. They are here, today, amongst us pretending to be us.

Back on topic...

Hi Ilene, I picked up the book Thursday at lunch from my local Chapters bookstore (here in Canada). I believe they moved up the release date because of the controversy. Read the first couple chapters so far it is pretty good. Lots to ponder if you are willing to let yourself think...

If God's word(Jesus Christ) does not accomplish that which it is sent out for to seek and save the lost(hands up who was never lost), then love lost.

You truly have some scary and troubling beliefs, Robin.

There is controversy attached to him, of course but what I've heard so far I like. The book is being released on March 29th.

I believe it was released the 15th. I know a friend of mine got a copy last week. We discussed it here too.

I ONLY address the Living Word of God Jesus the Christ, Robin . . . and His commands to "love God and each other." Everything else you believe is vanity and pride in the "precepts and doctrines of men" corrupted by belief in the ancient ignorance about the nature of our loving God.
