The world is being brought to the “Valley of Decision” where all will have to choose between the light and darkness, good and evil, truth and lies. We are in the times that will separate the wheat from the chaff, and the nations as sheep or goats.  

         It is not just the U.S. that is headed for civil war. All of the social fault lines in civilization are having tremors, and we can expect increasing divisions with these social earthquakes. At the same time the greatest unity will be coming to...

         Sigmund Freud (1856-1939) was an intellectual giant of his time. Considered the founder of psychoanalysis, his research and theories helped popularize the study of mental function and disorders, and began to lift them out of the medical dark ages.

         Many of the first colonists to North America were Christians and Jews seeking freedom from religious persecution. Some were Christians who may not have been persecuted, but had a vision for establishing a truly Christian nation in America.

To this day, this remains the main draw for those who want to come...
