Rise of the New World Order 2: The Awakening
J. Micah'el Thomas Hays - 2015
If you have not read my first book, “Rise of the New World Order: The Culling of Man”, this second-in-a-series book you are now reading will not make the best sense because it builds on and assumes you know what we went over in my first book. There is terminology and information in the first book that I reference often in this second book. Also, you need to know what my particular positions on various things are so there are no surprises for you here. As you know from my first book, the same occult group of people who have been ruling over humanity for thousands of years continue to do so to this day. The reason they have been able to do this and do it consistently is that their families worship Satan, who is called the ‘god of this world’ in the Bible.It is always those who are closest to Satan that get to rule the world throughout history, just like it is today, and the demonic torch has been passed down the family bloodlines for millennia…all the way back to King Nimrod, who you know from my first book is the ‘Antichrist’ that they will resurrect from the dead via his DNA sample. It is important for the brethren to know everything we can about Satan because he is exactly the puppet master of the 'New World Order'. This is a very deep subject that was put upon me to work through, and we are going to connect the dots of ancient history to formulate a focused image of who and what Satan really is. Information in this book that I'm basing my position about Satan on comes from the Bible, extra-Biblical sources such as the Book of Enoch, and the historical record of the ancient mythologies of empires gone by. I'm going to show you how the Bible confirms the basis of what turned into all those ancient religions, which we call mythologies today. This is probably the most revealing book ever composed about Satan, I have found none like it in existence or I wouldn't have taken the trouble to construct it, just like my first book.The time for a mass-awakening of humanity is short and I need your help! I'm working on the next book of this series right now and hope to have it out within one year. This book will be called “Rise of the New World Order 3: Sentinel of Yahshua”. Please support my efforts by purchasing a copy of my book, and telling others about the existence of my ongoing work here. Thanks for backing me up, friends! God bless all. -Sentinel Jeff Hays
The Master Key System
Charles F. Haanel - 1912
The Master Key teaching has been published in the form of a Correspondence Course of 24 lessons, delivered to students one per week for 24 weeks.

Otherwise the later parts will tend to be misunderstood and the reader's time and money will be wasted. Used as thus instructed "The Master Key" will make of the reader a greater, better personality, and equipped with a new power to achieve any worthy personal purpose and a new ability to enjoy life's beauty and wonder.

The Devil in the Shape of a Woman: Witchcraft in Colonial New England
Carol F. Karlsen - 1987
A wealthy Boston widow, Ann Hibbens was hanged in 1656 for casting spells on her neighbors. The case of Ann Cole, who was "taken with very strange Fits," fueled an outbreak of witchcraft accusations in Hartford a generation before the notorious events at Salem.More than three hundred years later, the question "Why?" still haunts us. Why were these and other women likely witches—vulnerable to accusations of witchcraft and possession? Carol F. Karlsen reveals the social construction of witchcraft in seventeenth-century New England and illuminates the larger contours of gender relations in that society.

The Holocaust Chronicle: A History in Words and Pictures
John K. Roth - 2000
During World War II, six million Jews—as well as other targeted groups including Poles, the handicapped, and homosexuals—were systematically murdered by Adolf Hitler’s Nazi Germany and its collaborators. Although the weight and heft of The Holocaust Chronicle cannot capture the immensity of its subject, the book’s 768 pages suggest that the Holocaust is a topic that must be openly confronted. Written and fact-checked by top scholars, the chronicle offers:A 3,000-item timeline pinpointing specific events that contributed to the Holocaust, such as Nazi Germany occupation during World War II, the sealing of urban ghettos in Europe, and the deportation of millions of Jews to death camps.Nearly 2,000 photographs chronicling the Holocaust in starkly visual terms, including images of the massacre of more than 33,000 Ukrainian Jews at Babi Yar and pictures from the liberation of Auschwitz and other concentration camps.Fourteen chapter-opening essays that put the most important years of the Holocaust and its immediate aftermath into perspective, beginning with Hitler’s rise to power and ending with the convictions of such Nazi officials as Hermann Göring at the Nuremberg Trial.More than 250 sidebars detailing the significant places, issues, events, and people of the Holocaust, including Anne Frank and Heinrich Himmler.An extensive prologue and epilogue that discuss the buildup to and aftermath of the Holocaust.* This is an alternate cover of Holocaust Chronicle: A History in Words and Pictures (ISBN-13: 9781680228328), content is the same. *
Become What You Are
Alan W. Watts - 1955
For the present moment is infinitely small; before we can measure it, it has gone, and yet it exists forever. . . . You may believe yourself out of harmony with life and its eternal Now; but you cannot be, for you are life and exist Now."—from Become What You Are In this collection of writings, including nine new chapters never before available in book form, Watts displays the intelligence, playfulness of thought, and simplicity of language that has made him so perennially popular as an interpreter of Eastern thought for Westerners. He draws on a variety of religious traditions, and covers topics such as the challenge of seeing one's life "just as it is," the Taoist approach to harmonious living, the limits of language in the face of ineffable spiritual truth, and the psychological symbolism of Christian thought.
