About the Book

It's finally here! the book that's been discussed on several TV shows including, TBN & Daystar. Five years in the making, given to you in plain & simple language about "Life Before Adam". Here you will find Biblical answers to questions that some of us had since childhood. For example:

* What happened to the Dinosaurs?

* Why was Lucifer's name chainged to Satan?

* What happened to the Cavemen?

* Was Adam the first man?

* Where did Cain get his family?

* What actually hit the earth Millions of years ago?

* And other subjects that we dare not talk about in the Pulpit.

As I prepared to write this book, I prayed to God that it would be a success. I believed that he would work it out, as I stepped out on faith. You, who are about to read this book, prepare to be spiritually blessed of God through his divine words that he has given me to give to you. It’s a ministry within itself to be able to put into words what God has shown you in vision. God has given all of us a ministry to fulfill, one that places a source of joy in our hearts. God has revealed to me that Christians have a duty to spread the message of the gospel through their various ministries. We must let the world know that He is alive. We are to lift Him up in praise and bear witness of the light. In doing so, we allow those that are in darkness to see the light and believe in him.
