Are you just an average person walking the path of life and wondering what your purpose is? Are you wondering what God could do with someone like you, or if God knows you are here, or even if there is a God? If so, this book may help you understand the answers to any questions that you may be mulling over. I have found in walking life, that if we give God even half a chance in our lives He will take that and set a path before us that will be exciting and well worth following. He will chase us until we find Him, or until we cease to exist on this earth. Whether we find Him or not depends on us. He loves us so much that He will not normally override our will. We make the choices and He honors them, and when He does life will become totally different. Learn to know God, not just know about Him. He desires that personal relationship with each of us and when we establish it, it is such a blessing. If I could live my life over the only thing I would change would be getting to know my Father God at a much earlier age. If I had known Him instead of knowing about Him during the first forty years of my life, who knows what else He would have set before me and what else we could have done together. I pray this book may provide you some insight into how you, an average person, can walk with God and know His love and His presence.

The Legends of many cultures claim that the world was once destroyed in a cataclysmic flood. Many cultures also claim that someday the world will again be destroyed in a similar fashion. In the Bible we are told that the disciples once asked Jesus if there would be a warning sign prior to this destructive event. He said that there would indeed a sign. Jesus said that whatever was happening in the Days of Noah will happen again before the end of this age. The Bible has only a few verses about Noah's Flood. So we are forced to turn to the ancient flood legends of over 350 other cultures to learn more about this prophecy. But Noah's days did not end with the flood, he lived for many years afterward. He saw the creation of a tower in Babylon. This is interesting because the Freemasons claim that their Order originated here. Here is the most thorough examination of Freemasonry ever undertaken, using their own texts, to solve the Days of Noah prophecy.

The KJV Apocrypha in a single volume. The Apocrypha (''hidden things'') are contemporaneous with the Hebrew Bible, but were not officially accepted as part of the Bible. They did, however, form part of the Greek Scriptures and came into English Bibles by that route. The writings of the Apocrypha run the whole gamut of literary genres: histories, romances, devotional works, proverbs and sermons. Many complement parts of the Hebrew Bible and readers will recognise some familiar Biblical characters in the narratives, such as Daniel and Esther.
