The summer season on Cape Cod is over - now it's time for the real fun to begin. Dominick is always just passing through. He is a professional houseguest who follows the sun and the leisure class from resort to resort.

An environmental protest against a proposed liquid natural gas terminal turns ugly, and by accident and happenstance Dominick becomes a mistaken suspect in terrorist bombings.

"The New Jerusalem in Heaven" is God's Jewish Kingdom. We may even speak Hebrew. Jesus Christ is the only common denominator of truth and righteousness of any probability. "God doesn't roll the dice." The Holy Bible gives it many other names throughout scripture, full of Jewish names. Such as Paradise or the Holy of Holies. Do you find it interesting that there is a "New Jerusalem" in heaven and a "Jerusalem" on earth? They are both associated with the inhabitants of this world and are God's capital cities of the Universe and the Earth.

Everlasting hell and divine judgment, a lake of fire and brimstone—these mainstays of evangelical tradition have come under fire once again in recent decades. Would the God of love revealed by Jesus really consign the vast majority of humankind to a destiny of eternal, conscious torment? Is divine mercy bound by the demands of justice?

En väckelserörelse tar form i en liten socken i Dalarna. Hellgum predikar om Jesu kraft och snart bildar människorna som samlas kring honom en sekt. Alla som inte ansluter till Hellgum stämplas som syndare, och när sekten börjar splittra familjer förvisas han från trakten. Några år senare skickar Hellgum ett brev från Jerusalem. Han uppmanar sina tidigare följeslagare att ansluta sig till honom på nytt, och socknen delas återigen upp i två läger – de som väljer att stanna kvar på sina gårdar, och de som offrar allt för att påbörja ett nytt liv i den heliga staden.

Many people imagine Heaven as a tedious, disembodied existence of endless worship. Jaród Murphey's Heaven and New Jerusalem: A Biblically-Accurate Survey of the City of God and Life in the Kingdom argues this is one of Satan's most cunning deceptions, designed to rob Christians of joy and deter unbelievers from seeking God. Instead, drawing extensively from God's Word, this book reveals that our primary purpose in Heaven will be to rule and reign with Christ as kings and queens in His global government, forever and ever.
