In life, Kevin Fahey was an unremarkable cop. But he hasn’t let death stop him from doing his job when he sees something amiss among the living.

| angels among us nyc: The Rebel Angels among Us Timothy Wyllie, 2020-08-04 Writing together with Timothy Wyllie, the angel Georgia details the events of Earth’s ancient history during the fall of Atlantis • Reveals, in detail, the devolution of Atlantean life during its society’s decline, the calamities that enveloped the civilization, and the migration of this sophisticated culture to other areas of the planet • Shares Georgia’s travels to the planet Zandana, a world facing the same problems as Earth yet taking a very different approach to their resolution • Exposes the supreme significance of Earth and how our planet is one of the worlds on which the rebel angels are reincarnating An angel of Seraphic status, Georgia arrived on this world with the first of the celestial missions, over half a million years ago. During the angelic rebellion 203,000 years ago, which led to the quarantine of Earth and 36 other planets from the Multiverse, she aligned herself with Lucifer and the rebel angels. After the rebellion, Georgia was permitted to remain on this planet as a Watcher, making occasional side-trips to Zandana, a sister planet also under the thrall of the angelic rebellion. Writing together with Timothy Wyllie, Georgia provides her personal account of Earth during the fall of Atlantis as well as accounts of her trips to Zandana. Georgia reveals, in detail, the devolution of Atlantean life during its society’s decline, the calamities that enveloped the civilization, and the migration of this sophisticated culture to other areas of the planet. She shows how the fate of Atlantis ties in with the Lucifer Rebellion and also offers us understanding of where human civilization is now in contemporary times. Her travels to the planet Zandana reveal a world at the same stage of development and facing the same problems as Earth, yet taking a very different approach to their resolution. Through her revelations, Georgia exposes the supreme significance of Earth in the larger Multiverse context and also how our planet is one of the worlds on which the rebel angels have been accorded the privilege of a mortal incarnation. She describes how this unprecedented interspecies mutation--rebel angel incarnations--started in Atlantis in the eighth millennium. Interwoven with Georgia’s narrative are her observations of Timothy Wyllie’s current and previous lives, including his involvement with the Process Church and his struggle to leave it. Georgia shares her words, in part, to awaken the 100 million rebel angels currently living their human lives, most unaware of their angelic heritage. She reveals how a mortal incarnation for a rebel angel is an opportunity to redeem their past and help prepare for the imminent transformation of global consciousness as the rebel-held planets, including Earth, are welcomed back into the Multiverse. |

| angels among us nyc: The Better Angels of Our Nature Steven Pinker, 2011-10-04 “If I could give each of you a graduation present, it would be this—the most inspiring book I've ever read. —Bill Gates (May, 2017) Selected by The New York Times Book Review as a Notable Book of the Year The author of Rationality and Enlightenment Now offers a provocative and surprising history of violence. Faced with the ceaseless stream of news about war, crime, and terrorism, one could easily think we live in the most violent age ever seen. Yet as New York Times bestselling author Steven Pinker shows in this startling and engaging new work, just the opposite is true: violence has been diminishing for millenia and we may be living in the most peaceful time in our species's existence. For most of history, war, slavery, infanticide, child abuse, assassinations, programs, gruesom punishments, deadly quarrels, and genocide were ordinary features of life. But today, Pinker shows (with the help of more than a hundred graphs and maps) all these forms of violence have dwindled and are widely condemned. How has this happened? This groundbreaking book continues Pinker's exploration of the esesnce of human nature, mixing psychology and history to provide a remarkable picture of an increasingly nonviolent world. The key, he explains, is to understand our intrinsic motives--the inner demons that incline us toward violence and the better angels that steer us away--and how changing circumstances have allowed our better angels to prevail. Exploding fatalist myths about humankind's inherent violence and the curse of modernity, this ambitious and provocative book is sure to be hotly debated in living rooms and the Pentagon alike, and will challenge and change the way we think about our society. |

| angels among us nyc: Ascension. Warrior. Celestial Legion. Angels Among Us Omnibus Books One-Three Sherry Hutchison, 2024-05-07 Ascension, Book One. On the same day, the sun set, and the moon rose as always but time had come for two young souls. Alyssa, a beautiful young woman, was an angel even before her unfortunate death. Aiden, however, was a wandering soul even after his time had come. What could two young people whose lives had been as different as night and day have to do with one another? Could the ties between these two young souls be deeper than what they know? With only seven days before ascension, Alyssa and Aiden must team up and come to terms with their past. They must learn forgiveness and in return be granted grace. Warrior Unchartered Ascent Book Two The Nephilim known as Timothy Aldaine, set high upon the local library rooftop in Danbury Connecticut waiting patiently for his assignment. She walked pass every night. If you’d told this young man two years ago, he’d be rescued and brought back from the brink of death as a young angel assigned to do the heavens bidding on earth he would have sneered and rejected any words. That was before faith intervened in the appearance of Archangel Michael and another young angel; a twin sister he’d never known he had. He was now a true believer; Nephilim, warrior; a young man with a huge responsibility placed on his shoulders as he sat patiently awaiting the command Celestial Legions Book Three Warrior stood gazing down upon the city at night. The lights were so beautiful giving off an ambiance, yet to a Nephilim, one understood they could be deceiving. He was saddened. A war was upon them. It wouldn’t be the first nor the last. Angels and Demons had battled for centuries for human souls. He clenched his teeth as Metatron read from the book. “First shall come the birds, flying in fear as the Angels blacken the sky in legions. The Demons and their dark lurkers gather down below; they walk among the humans as they do every day. They grow in numbers. This has become a battle for dominion. We fight for faithful souls, for loss souls crying out. We shall not be defeated. We shall always be. Heavenly beings. |
| angels among us nyc: Pioneers in the Attic Sara M. Patterson, 2020-05-01 Why do thousands of Mormons devote their summer vacations to following the Mormon Trail? Why does the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Day Saints spend millions of dollars to build monuments and Visitor Centers that believers can visit to experience the history of their nineteenth-century predecessors who fled westward in search of their promised land? Why do so many Mormon teenagers dress up in Little-House-on-the-Prairie-style garb and push handcarts over the highest local hills they can find? And what exactly is a traveling Zion? In Pioneers in the Attic, Sara Patterson analyzes how and why Mormons are engaging their nineteenth-century past in the modern era, arguing that as the LDS community globalized in the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries, its relationship to space was transformed. Following their exodus to Utah, nineteenth-century Mormons believed that they must gather together in Salt Lake Zion - their new center place. They believed that Zion was a place you could point to on a map, a place you should dwell in to live a righteous life. Later Mormons had to reinterpret these central theological principles as their community spread around the globe, but to say that they simply spiritualized concepts that had once been understood literally is only one piece of the puzzle. Contemporary Mormons still want to touch and to feel these principles, so they mark and claim the landscapes of the American West with versions of their history carved in stone. They develop rituals that allow them not only to learn the history of the nineteenth-century journey west, but to engage it with all of their senses. Pioneers in the Attic reveals how modern-day Mormons have created a sense of community and felt religion through the memorialization of early Mormon pioneers of the American West, immortalizing a narrative of shared identity through an emphasis on place and collective memory. |

| angels among us nyc: The Insanity of Unbelief Max Davis, 2012-10-16 How Science and the Supernatural Changed My Life “One day one of my professors asked me if it was true that I was a Bible-believing Christian. When I answered yes, his polite, upbeat attitude instantly turned rude and arrogant. In front of my peers, he insulted my intelligence, belittled my faith, and discredited the Bible. To him there was absolutely no doubt that science and academia had shown the pure ‘insanity of such belief,’” writes author Max Davis. Written from his journalistic point of view, The Insanity of Unbelief is a result of the author’s 30-year walk from childlike belief, to skepticism, and finally deep, secure faith. The contents are based on his expert and thorough research of solid facts versus what many atheists, agnostics, and even some believers tout. Different from other apologetic books is the addition of true, documented, supernatural experiences and miracles making a compelling—and exciting—argument for the reality and power of God! |

| angels among us nyc: The Wonder of Heaven Ron Rhodes, 2009-02-01 Increasing economic and cultural instability is leading North Americans to wonder more and more about existence beyond death.

| angels among us nyc: An Angel Among Us Elizabeth Michelle Billeaudeaux, 2010-03-09 I wrote this book to show my love, honor, and respect for Michael. I believe we are all ethereal creatures in material bodies, biologically electrical in nature. Michael used the term divine union and I love it. I use many sources such as: the Bible, Egyptian lore, Biblical and Traditional Numerology, Astrology, evolution of spirit in our society, writings on Archangel Michael, and Michael's life, to outline and prove His true divine nature. Michael was open, unique, curious, fearless, and loving, as children are. He wore His heart on His sleeve, as children do. He was just as easily hurt and mistreated as children can be. He had the ancient soul of an angel with the heart of a child. In order to live a spiritually enlightened, fully enriched life, a person must find meaning, love, and peace. I have always had these in my life because I have always had Michael in my life. What I outline in this book are no coincidences. They all form a pattern; a beat; a rhythm. That rhythm is the music of the spheres, of Heaven, of the universe. Michael knew this and He tried to bring everyone together to sway as one..... one family under love. With His songs and dances He captured the world's attention. We let Him into our hearts where He planted the seeds of love. We watched Him channel the white, hot, energy of God's love. This incredible energy is what we were all driven to love and admire. Michael was God's chosen messenger for our modern times and He wanted us to understand we were all sisters and brothers, all children of God. His strong, shining, spirit will live forever within the heart of each of us. He said, We were never separate, you and I. If you read this book with an open heart and open mind, not presuming to know God's will, I am sure you will feel immense love and brilliant surprise! It's all for love....... L O V E |

| angels among us nyc: Angelology Dylan David Potter, 2017-01-01 Angels have fascinated people for millennia because they point to an invisible dimension that parallels our own. This book examines the different ways that angels have been portrayed at certain key points in biblical and theological history. By tracing patterns in the appearance of higher-order beings from their ancient Near Eastern origins, the Hebrew Scriptures, the writings of Pseudo-Dionysius, Thomas Aquinas, Karl Barth, and even modern New Age writers, Angelology demonstrates that angels allow various authors to emphasise divine transcendence, immanence, and creativity. Identifying the theological purpose underlying the depiction of angels at certain key points in the history of their use raises new questions about how angels are to be understood by people today. |
| angels among us nyc: Trance Forms Ronaldo Morelos, 2010-05-21 This study investigates forms of theatre/performance practice and training that can be seen to employ 'trance' states or engage the concept of 'states of consciousness' as performative practice. Trance is considered to be the result of sustained involvement with detailed information that is structurally organised, invoking imaginative and affective engagements that are maintained as interactions between the performer, other performers, the environment and audience of the performance. This thesis investigates trance performance through the conceptual lens of dramatic arts practice. In their respective cultural contexts, trance and theatre attain qualities considered as sacredness. Trance practice and performance, across a range of cultural contexts, are analysed as social processes - as elements of power relations that influence the performer, audience and environment of the performance. As performance traditions and events, this study will examine strands of praxis that can be drawn from Constantin Stanislavski to Lee Strasberg to Mike Leigh; from Antonin Artaud to Samuel Beckett and Jerzy Grotowski; from the Balinese trance performance form of Sanghyang Dedari in the 1930s to the 1990s; from the Channeling practitioners in the U.S. in the 1930s to Seth and Lazaris in the 1970s to the 1990s; and from traditions of military training, performance violence, and rhetoric associated with the attacks of the 11th of September 2001 in the U.S. and its aftermath. |
| angels among us nyc: Knowing the Facts about Angels John Ankerberg, John Weldon, 2012-08-07 Angels make one of the most intriguing subjects one could study. According to the Bible, angels have helped to shape the course of human history &continue to do so today. Consider the fallen angel in the Garden of Eden who slyly engineered the moral fall of the entire human race (Genesis 3). There have been thousands of angelic encounters throughout history—good & evil—in the lives of ordinary and famous individuals. The word angel appears some 300 times in 24 books of the Bible (not including the synonyms used for angels). As people are searching for answers & meaning to life, angels are thought to play a vital role in providing those answers. This book gives important information on how to tell the difference between the good and the bad angels. |
| angels among us nyc: Religion and the Culture of Print in Modern America Charles L. Cohen, Paul S. Boyer, 2008-05-29 Mingling God and Mammon, piety and polemics, and prescriptions for this world and the next, modern Americans have created a culture of print that is vibrantly religious. From America’s beginnings, the printed word has played a central role in articulating, propagating, defending, critiquing, and sometimes attacking religious belief. In the last two centuries the United States has become both the leading producer and consumer of print and one of the most identifiably religious nations on earth. Print in every form has helped religious groups come to grips with modernity as they construct their identities. In turn, publishers have profited by swelling their lists with spiritual advice books and scriptures formatted so as to attract every conceivable niche market. Religion and the Culture of Print in Modern America explores how a variety of print media—religious tracts, newsletters, cartoons, pamphlets, self-help books, mass-market paperbacks, and editions of the Bible from the King James Version to contemporary “Bible-zines”—have shaped and been shaped by experiences of faith since the Civil War. Edited by Charles L. Cohen and Paul S. Boyer, whose comprehensive historical essays provide a broad overview to the topic, this book is the first on the history of religious print culture in modern America and a well-timed entry into the increasingly prominent contemporary debate over the role of religion in American public life.
