In his new book from Legends Library Press, author Timothy Ballard answers HOW and WHY the founding of America literally fulfills ancient biblical prophecy.Why did Christopher Columbus assert that he was "guided by an angel" at the moments of greatest distress? What prompted the original colonists to embrace the notion that the land of America was "New Israel" to them? What power urged Washington and his rag-tag army to successfully go against the greatest military power in the known world? What brought about the terrible national crisis that left our nation grieving, humbled and repentant after the desolation of Civil War?What is the secret behind the nation's unsurpassed record of prosperity, protection and liberty? What are the responsibilities and consequences incumbent upon a people so blessed?The answer to these, and many other questions relating to our country's real national treasure are found in the pages of THE COVENANT.Ballard's book explores an interpretation of American history that has not been fully expressed before. THE COVENANT: America's Sacred and Immutable Connection to Ancient Israel brings to light a bloodline inheritance connection between America and the Promises made to the Lords ancient Covenant People, the House of Israel. A concept referred to as "British Israelism" and "Two-House Theology."To be clear, this book is not about America's ties to the Jewish State formed by U.N. edict in 1948 called "Israel" but rather, the text hearkens back to the period of 720 B.C. to the Northern Kingdom of ancient Israel who with her Ten Tribes were scattered by the Assyrians into the "North" land of Western Europe, Great Britain and Scandinavia, who inherited by virtue of birth and bloodline, the right to invoke "the Promises made to the Fathers."Except for a very few cases, every freedom-loving patriot in modern times (regardless of his birth nation) has already tasted of the blessings which flow from the "just and holy principles" upon which America was founded. Could it be that America was designed to be much more than simply another political entity among many?
