Synopsis:

As we enter into a period of history where in many parts of the world a Christian genocide is underway, it becomes expedient that people address their need for spiritual empowerment. In John 14:12, Jesus said, "Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father." The members of the early church often fulfilled this expectation of Jesus. However, Christians soon lost the ability to give sight to the blind, heal the withered hands, and raise the dead. It is the author's position that those spiritual powers can be restored if people will examine Jesus' view of His Father and His personal definition of salvation. How did Jesus actually view His Father? What does that view have to say to us today? How did Jesus define salvation in His own words? And what effect did modifying that definition during the Gentile Mission have on the empowerment of the saints? This study uses the King James Bible as its primary source material as well as support from the Book of Enoch, Jubilees, and others. This penetrating study has considerable ramifications for readers today as Elder Livingston examines the origins of Judaism and Western Christianity and traces their gradual shifts and developments through the lens of Jesus' View of His Father. It is a current expression of the Essene view of the Creatorship of Jesus, which topic is entirely undeveloped in Christianity. Historically, the Essene sect has been private in its teachings and scriptural knowledge. We have been a functioning Essene community for nearly 30 years and have followed this pattern of privacy until now, so this text is a work that provides a unique perspective and opportunity to today's faithful. We have authorized the author to make public these aspects of Essene theology and world view. - The Council of the Community Brotherhood of Christ Church

Review: I read this book and checked just about each and every reference in there and it all checks out for those of you who don't have the time to cross reference them. If you are searching for the truth, this book will prepare you to change your paradigm for the better. The book will convince you that our God isn't a vengeful and angry entity like the old testament teaches, but that he is a kind and loving God in the exact same mannerisms that Jesus portrays to us throughout history and even to this day. The author presents his case with evidences that even the smartest lawyers in the world couldn't turn over even if they had the mind to do so. This book will ween you off of milk and prepare you for meat. I wholly recommend that you read this book first as it will prepare you for a much deeper learning experience should the Spirit lead you. I have posted a link below to other books related to this one if you are ready for more. --R. Tilden

This book is well reasoned and thought-provoking. It is an excellent pastoral resource. A wide range of Christian ministers who preach every Sunday are always looking for intelligent resources, and this book fits the bill quite well. I'm passing it along to a couple of pastors I know and think they will find it useful. Maybe William will have his message preached in some conventional churches! It s a lot better than most of the sermons I hear, for sure. --Timothy Miller

The book was informative and enjoyable to read. I learned many things about Christianity, as well as a few things Essene. I recommend the book to anyone interested in Christ, disciple, or not. --Betty Baldwin
