By Antonio Carlos Mongiardim Gomes Saraiva. 2018
Este libro es un relato (narrativa) y busca ser una reflexión, sobre realidades y situaciones que el autor observó en…
un cortísimo periodo de tiempo en el que vivió en una comunidad (luz) en Minas Gerais/Brasil, de valores y prácticas sociales muy diferentes del escenario común. Por tratarse de un enfoque personal, subjetivo y limitado, su contenido es aquello que el observador consiguió registrar, con extractos en los que participa y es parte integrante de rituales, ceremonias y liturgias con un determinado propósito. Por eso, el libro está lejos de trazar caminos, mostrar resoluciones, dar respuestas y mucho menos tiene la pretensión de hallarse encima del bien o del mal. Tierras de la hermandad es también sentimiento, aprensión y angustia, provocación, en un ambiente en el que el autor es constantemente puesto a prueba y conoce otras formas de conocimiento y elevación. Independientemente de las ideas y opiniones de cada uno, en el libro es posible percibir cuanta seriedad y enfoque existe en esas prácticas, al ser realizadas de una forma atenta y teniendo siempre en cuenta la preservación y la valorización de las especies. En Tierras de la Hermandad, el autor pasa por un periodo muy difícil en el que siente la necesidad de encontrar (construir) un eje de vida para poder encontrarse, ya que atraviesa graves problemas familiares que lo limitan y al mismo tiempo lo alientan. Eso hace que su relato oscile entre situaciones de gran tensión, melancolía y frustración, y otros de júbilo, alegría y contemplación ante la vida, a medida que la acción va transcurriendo y caminando hacia su cumbre. Más que una aventura inusitada, de carácter espiritual y religioso, Tierras de la Hermandad es también un granero de personas y comportamientos que interactúan en un ambiente riguroso, difícil, pero religiosamente prometedor.

By Jonathan Cahn. 2020
The Harbinger II will open up the mysteries of the Watchmen, the Half Moon, the Day of Tammuz, the Parchment…
in the Ruins, the Tree, the Inscription, the Image, the Eastern Gate, and much, much more. It will ultimately lead to mysteries concerning the future, which include the Window, the Island, the Other Mystery Ground, and the Prophecy. As with The Harbinger, the revelations of The Harbinger II are completely real and manifesting in the events of our times. And as with the first book, the mysteries are revealed through a narrative. So, The Harbinger II will bring the return of Nouriel, Ana Goren, and the mysterious figure known as “the prophet.” The prophet will now take up the revelation where he left off and open mysteries as stunning and mind-blowing as in the first book. The mysteries will be opened up, as in the prophet’s first appearance, through the giving of ancient seals, but also in dreams and through a little girl as mysterious as the prophet. In The Harbinger II you will be taken on an epic journey from the shores of New England, to the steps of the Supreme Court, to the towering heights of a Manhattan skyscraper, to a boat on the Hudson River, even to the White House and the pedestal of the Statue of Liberty. One thing is for certain: when you finish reading The Harbinger II, you will never see the world the same again. A New York Times BestsellerThe Unstable Boys: A Novel
