Meet King Antiochus, coming very soon to an Apocalypse near you. When he died 21 centuries ago he never passed on; instead his spirit waited for resurrection. He's been preparing for his return, watching humanity until its fruit ripened, ready to be harvested for the New Age.To Christians Antiochus defines Antichrist. He is the "abomination in the holy place" who Jesus warned about. The "little horn" of the prophet Daniel who needs no God other than himself. He is also brilliant, supremely powerful, and capable of saving humanity from self-destruction. It's a recipe for Armageddon.Along the way meet Darianna, the beguiling queen of Antiochus reincarnated as the wife of an archeologist, who discovers his secret burial place beneath Mt. Nemrut, Turkey - a fantastic mountaintop sanctuary and historic site. Also meet Akbar, a local villager whose life is upended after learning that he lived before, long ago, but has a hard road ahead to finding out who he was in that past life.Then meet Demetrius and his two Brothers when they emerge from obscurity to lead a movement of peace and enlightenment based from Mt. Nemrut in Turkey, the sacred mountain. Three spiritual masters, followers of Antiochus, creating reality with their minds and teaching others The Way.Readers will meet more fascinating characters as they follow Antiochus from his first miraculous announcement to his Second Coming: an old-time preacher who sees the Antichrist at work; an atheist scientist confronted by proof of spiritual existence; a young brother worried about the people he loves embroiled in world-changing events; two Jewish sisters, descended from Judas Maccabeus, who take up their family cause to fight an ancient enemy they can't even prove exists. And more.Call it New Age, occult, or end times fiction, supernatural thriller or Christian fantasy - fans of many different genres will find something (and someone) to love in Something Coming by J.M. DeBord!Now on Kindle. Just follow the link to Amazon. Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |

While absorbing readers in a fascinating story populated by rich and detailed characters, Something Coming is also an education in a wide variety of beliefs related to the Second Coming. King Antiochus presents himself as the culmination of all beliefs, feeding off the collective energy to engineer his rise to power. We learn who he was: an ambitious king, brilliant and arrogant but also visionary and quite possibly the one person who could unite the world. And we learn who he is now: even more brilliant, reviled by the Jews and some Christians as an Antichrist, and ready after 2,100 years to live again. Working through a New Age version of John the Baptist, he brings the world together behind his version of world peace. But his old enemies remember who he was, and in opposing him, push the world to the brink of Armageddon. And that only scratches the surface of what this novel is about.
At a little over 500 pages and with a story spanning two years, Something Coming will keep you entertained for many days and nights. It is the best novel about the Second Coming on the market, and the author, J.M. DeBord, is a great new talent on the literary scene. ( )
