Ancient Creation

A Complete Journey Through the Age of Greek Gods The gods were not kind. They were not distant. They were magnificent, petty, lustful, and furious, and they made the world in their own image. Greek Mythology: The Age of Gods — Reader's Edition is the complete mythological journey: from the void of Chaos to the reign of the Olympians, through the wars, the loves, the punishments, and the tragedies that defined an entire civilization's understanding of what it means to be alive. It starts in absolute darkness and ends in the age of heroes, telling the myths the way they were always meant to...

Though it’s often too subtle to see, much of modern Christianity has fallen prey to the ancient Gnostic heresy which taught that the material world has no lasting spiritual value. Rediscovering the Goodness of Creation diagnoses the problem, takes us through its history, and helps us discover “the purposefulness of the material world, the goodness of the human body, and the eschatological hope of a transformed universe.”

Contrary to popular belief, the Atrahasis Epic is not merely a flood myth. In some ways it can be called a creation myth. However, it does not concern itself with the creation of the universe or even of the earth. Rather, the created work in question is one of culture and civilization. The work ostensibly includes, but may not be limited to, modern humans. The goals of this new paraphrase are to examine the ancient story in a new light free of religious and gender biases and to integrate geological and archaeological evidence that ties the story to a specific date in real history.

What if the story of creation you’ve never heard is the one you’ve been missing? Hidden within the traditions of the ancient Maya lies a narrative as powerful as any epic—filled with gods who shape the world with words, heroes who descend into the underworld, and a vision of humanity unlike anything found in Western thought.

Yet for many readers, it remains difficult to approach—dense, unfamiliar, and often misunderstood. This book changes that. Inside, you’ll uncover: The ...

How might premodern exegesis of Genesis inform Christian debates about creation today? Imagine a table with three people in dialogue: a young-earth creationist, an old-earth creationist, and an evolutionary creationist. Into the room walks Augustine of Hippo, one of the most significant theologians in the history of the church. In what ways will his reading of Scripture and his doctrine of creation inform, deepen, and shape the conversation?

The oldest stories ever written. The gods who came before all other gods. The myths that built every civilization that followed. Five thousand years ago, in the world's first cities, a civilization pressed its beliefs into clay. Those tablets contained the original versions of the stories the modern world thinks it knows — the Great Flood, the creation of humanity, the descent into the underworld, the hero who could not accept death. The Sumerians told these stories first, told them without apology, and told them with a brutal honesty about the nature of gods and humans that every ...

This volume brings together the oldest surviving sacred narratives in human history—restored, translated, and presented within a single critical edition. Drawn from the literary and theological traditions of Sumer, Akkad, Babylonia, Egypt, and Ugarit, these texts preserve the foundational mythic structures from which later religious systems emerged. Long before covenantal scripture, prophetic law, or canonical theology, these writings articulated the earliest cosmologies, divine hierarchies, and narratives of creation, order, catastrophe, and renewal. Most of the texts included here were ...

In just over a hundred years - from the death of Muhammad in 632 to the beginning of the Abbasid Caliphate in 750 - the followers of the Prophet swept across the whole of the Middle East, North Africa, and Spain. Their armies threatened states as far flung as the Franks in Western Europe and the Tang Empire in China. The conquered territory was larger than the Roman Empire at its greatest expansion, and it was claimed for the Arabs in roughly half the time.

Now revised and updated--John Lennox's acclaimed method of reading and interpreting the first chapters of Genesis without discounting either science or Scripture. What did the writer of Genesis mean by "the first day?" Are the seven days in Genesis 1 a literal week or a series of time periods?...

Some books explain ideas. This one changes how you see reality itself. The Demiurge is one of the most fascinating—and misunderstood—concepts in philosophy and religion. It begins with Plato’s vision of a rational cosmic craftsman… and transforms into a mysterious, controversial figure in Gnostic thought—a creator who may not be the highest God at all. What if the world is beautifully ordered… yet fundamentally flawed? What if the power that shaped reality is not the ultimate source of truth? This book takes you inside that question—and refuses to let you leave unchanged. ...

Ready for the truth that changes everything? Imagine fighter pilots in a late-night debrief uncovering the biggest secret in human history: the "aliens" we've been chasing aren't from distant stars — they're already here. They're indigenous.

In Aliens Among Us: Gods at War — The Hidden Factions Behind Ancient Myths (Book 2 in the groundbreaking Aliens Among Us series), retired U.S. military pilot and international airline captain Greg Pasden — the leading authority on cryptoterrestrials — delivers ...

“Before there was light, there was Silence. And in that Silence, a Thought — dreaming itself into form.” From the visionary author Etzel Edelweiss comes The Architects of the Unreal, an esoteric scripture of cosmic genesis, fall, and remembrance — a living grimoire that bridges myth, metaphysics, and mystic revelation. Told in illuminated verse and sacred prose, this Grand Grimoire unravels the forgotten story of existence: how consciousness divided itself to know itself, how the Watchers descended through curiosity and became the architects of humanity’s dream, and how the ...

Reality is not what you were taught. It is not fixed. It is not random. And it is not independent of consciousness. Reality Hacker’s Guide: Seven Hermetic Principles is a modern transmission of ancient Hermetic knowledge—revealing the hidden laws that govern mind, matter, vibration, causality, and experience itself. Long before modern physics questioned the nature of reality, Hermetic initiates understood a radical truth: The universe is mental. Consciousness is primary. Reality responds to mind. This book is not religion. It is not speculative philosophy. It is a practical guide to ...

The poem that invented the universe. Before Homer's heroes sailed to Troy, before Odysseus wandered the wine-dark sea, a Boeotian shepherd named Hesiod stood on Mount Helicon and received from the Muses the oldest surviving account of how everything began. The Theogony is the foundational text of Greek mythology — the poem that gave the gods their genealogy, the cosmos its architecture, and Western literature its first creation story. From the primordial abyss of Chaos to the rise of Zeus, from the castration of Uranus to the birth of Aphrodite from the foam of the sea, Hesiod's thousand-...
