The alarm clock just went off...,

This review is from: My First Encounter with an Angel: Revelations of Ancient Wisdom (Paperback)
My First Encounter With an Angel is an eye opener. The authortells the story of his life and of his background in the Jewishtradition, and eloquently leads the reader up to his first meeting with the medium who passes on to the author a foundation of knowledge that ultimately changes the life of the author...knowledge that opened his mind to a world outside of the rigid rules and limitations of the dogma that he has been taught growing up. As time passed, and his mind adapted to the new teachings, the author was chosen to be a scribe for the teachings of the angel AWAN...Angel without a name, whose essence was channeled through the body of the medium. It was made crystal clear as to why this angel preferred not to give his name, expressing that he had no desire to be deified and worshipped as so many teachers who have tried to transmit knowledge in the past have been. He did not desire to have a religion created in his name. AWAN's message, like so many of the messages from other great teacher's of the past is both simple and extraordinary. He simply informs the author of the contradictions that exist in his (the author's)dogmatic understanding, and also expresses in that first meeting the central theme of the book-- that the Bible had been changed. This message does not sit well with the author,being from the religious tradition of Judaism, and so he decides to study and research until he finds the proof for himself. The proof he finds is enlightening, and brings forth a myriad of emotions from clarity to great anger. For anyone who feels like something isn't quite right when they go to church and go through the motions...for anyone who is looking for the truth about the religious foundation of the world we live in...for anyone who isn't afraid to look at the hypocrisy within themselves, embrace change, and take steps foward into greater joy...this book is for you without a doubt. Tune into the God within...

Brilliant! A must-read book!,
By "richard_fuller" (Grand Rapids, MI) - See all my reviews
This review is from: My First Encounter with an Angel: Revelations of Ancient Wisdom (Paperback)
Author and seeker Sidney Schwartz questioned the bible, and the roles of religious leaders, since his college years. His destiny of finding truth, began when meeting Carl Hewitt, a trance-medium. AWAN (Angel Without a Name), a highly evolved Spirit, spoke to the author using the entranced medium's vocal cords. Though a series of unique conversations, AWAN provided ancient knowledge and truth.Eventually AWAN appointed Sidney Schwartz to be his messenger proclaiming, "You are to write down my teachings in the form of books that will help people raise their consciousness." The first of these books is My First Encounter with an Angel, the results of Dr. Hewitt's extraordinary mediumistic abilities, Sidney Schwartz's curiosity and scholarship, and AWANs astounding revelations. AWAN's first revelation: "Religious leaders have altered the Bible for their own purposes," inspired the author to research 160 versions of the bible. Much to the author's disbelief, he discovered AWAN was correct. A two word Hebrew phrase was translated 52 different ways in 107 Old Testaments! Mr. Schwartz asks: "If there is so much diversity in the translation of two words, how accurate can the translation of the other thousands of words from the original Hebrew text into English be?" Another of AWAN's revelations was that the bible is a book of psychic history. The events that theologians label as miracles were really demonstrations of psychic phenomena. What astounded the author was that many of the versions of the bible read Sidney Schwartz has given us a mind-opening book. My First Encounter with an Angel offers insight to a new, yet ancient, understanding of God's word. Here is a well-written book that can alter your perceptions, and change your attitudes!

My First Encounter With An Angel,
By Denise A. Baron (Connecticut, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: My First Encounter with an Angel: Revelations of Ancient Wisdom (Paperback)
I commend Mr. Schwartz for his thoroughness in his research, which proves the Bible is a history of psychic science that has been intentionally misinterpreted. I also can relate to his frustration in regards to being wrongly taught by religious leaders. It is very disheartening when you realize that everything you have been taught is wrong; but I am so grateful to these three entities for enlightening me to the truth. Perhaps someday Mr. Schwartz, Reverend Hewitt, and AWAN can combine their talents and publish a Bible translated with the correct interpretations, so humankind can learn from one true Bible.

My First Encounter With An Angel,
By Denise A. Baron (Connecticut, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: My First Encounter with an Angel: Revelations of Ancient Wisdom (Paperback)
Mr. Schwartz has written an amazingly clear and exhaustive work on the subject of psychic science in the Bible and in our present times. I applaud the divine entity whose wisdom and knowledge established the foundation for this book. Finally, I acknowledge the work of the accomplished medium, Reverend Carl Hewitt, in using his gift to bring this knowledge to the public. This book is a must for every family who has experienced the loss of a loved one and for every person who thirsts for answers to the meaning of life.

My first encounter with "My First Encounter with an Angel",
By Dana Moffett (United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: My First Encounter with an Angel: Revelations of Ancient Wisdom (Paperback)
If there are a couple of books you should have to consult your spirituality it is the Bible , Ramtha's White Book , and My First Encounter with an Angel. This book offers nothing but the truth. And you know what they say about the truth, its painful at times. There was a time when I believed in a god, but when I looked around all I saw was pain and suffering, what type of god would allow this? The answer is a religion god. I have read this book and it has change my views greatly. I could never believe in my whole life that humanity has been brainwashed for greed, and the brainwashing started with the Bible, the author Sidney Schwartz has translated over 160 different Bibles and has showed the crucial errors in his book of how religion has tried to cover up mediumship.This book is clearly written so that even a little kid could understand its concepts. In general this book says that "THE WORD OF GOD HAS BEEN TAMPERED WITH". I look forward to the continuation of this book series. I reccommend this book to all!

If you are looking for the truth, this is the book for you.,
By Susan M. Larrow (Connecticut) - See all my reviews
This review is from: My First Encounter with an Angel: Revelations of Ancient Wisdom (Paperback)
This wonderful book points out all of the flaws of religion, and how it manipulates and lies to the people to cover the truth. It compares over a hundred bibles to show how each one has been worded differently, so which bible is correct if they are all tampered with? The key aspect is to point out that the bible is a history book of spirituality, and psycic phenomena, not a book to be thought of as the word of "god". It will work wonders for those with open minds, and for those wanting to learn more about life. Highly Recommended.

Tom's review,
By Tom (USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: My First Encounter with an Angel: Revelations of Ancient Wisdom (Paperback)
Sidney Schwartz has done a tremendous service to humanity in the release of "My First Encounter With an Angel". This book clearly outlines many examples of religious obfuscation of biblical text dealing with natural, psychic science. By comparing the translations in over a hundred versions of the bible, the author shows us that so-called "Christians" have modified the meanings in the teachings of Jesus for their own personal gain.Jesus said "The truth shall set you free". In reading this book, the truth therein will set you free from the controlling dogmas of organized religion. Find out what the priests don't want you to know. |
