IS THERE REALLY A BOOK ABOUT EVERYTHING?
This is the new Millennium. Hardly a week goes by without us seeing or hearing of another world-changing discovery. Yet have we missed out something special that may provide for us a time-tested way to remake any civilization in love, truth, and beauty?
Nebuchadnezzar was without question, the most powerful world leader in all human history. His achievements in physical perfection, social success, technological touch, mental mastery, spiritual sensitivity, political power and cultural cool were a legend.
He conquered the world in more ways anyone else has ever done without destroying or enslaving its children. He sought to build the best in the young of each culture, to pass on his significant achievements and direction to their nations. His three-year global test had one astonishing result; four young people from a tiny nation in every major way excelled in all areas. Not just two, three or even four or five times superior in their abilities and accomplishments, but in a quantum leap of being ten times better. What did they know? Who were these unbelievable kids? What could make in them such a massive difference?
Their great value was seen by others. How else could they not only survive three rival governments, but retain their significance, power and place in each area for their new rulers? What did they know or find of such influence that this king, the greatest human ruler in all global history, finally adopted the core of what they had for his own life?
Nothing you are about to read of here is new or wholly unseen by those who have looked before in these areas and made us many significant studies. Yet what you are about to see has not been applied in quite this way in over twenty centuries of excellent collections of multiplied millions of writings. Oddly enough, it is not about religion, but relationship.
What they did have is still available today. We have not paid heed to one of the most important lessons of all time. What you are about to find here may be your key to open a missing door for the needs of our world.
Spiritual Vocations is such a record. More than three millennia in the making and ten years in this assembly... May it become an epic journal for you to discover your own destiny.
