Was she truly the source – perhaps even the author – of one of the Gospels?

In 1917, two little girls and one small boy claimed to actually see and hear the Virgin Mary in a meadow near Fatima, Portugal.  Did these three children receive a powerful prophecy that still shakes the world today?  What was the promise made to three shepherd children that the Vatican kept secret for over 80 years?  Was it a true Marian apparition?  Something very strange and wonderful was witnessed by thousands of people, and it happened not once, but many times.  What did the Fatima children and the people of Portugal witness?  And what was the prophecy that was kept secret for nearly a century?  Learn the surprising answers.

BIBLICAL PROPHECIES: Are Ancient Prophecies today’s Reality?
Did biblical prophets have special abilities that allowed them to foretell the future? For thousands of years, history has recorded the words of prophets—men and women who seem to have uncanny insight into events of the future. For most of us, the notion of predicting the future seems inconceivable. Yet according to the ancient prophets, there are portents of doom facing the nations of the earth. . . times of famine, war, misery and cataclysmic natural disasters. Could it be these prophets were witnesses to our generation? 

Approximately 2,500 prophecies appear in the Bible . . . some 2,000 of which have already been fulfilled to the letter. Is it possible, as some scholars suggest that the remaining 500 may be unfolding before our very eyes? The ancient prophets wrote of impending disasters, war, earthquakes, and famine—events that seem to be happening with increasing regularity. But haven’t we implemented the mechanisms to lessen their impact on society? Or has our technology actually created the devices for these ancient predictions to come true . . . with all of their dire implications? Are some warnings more important than others? And if they are, what gives them more urgency? Explore the predictions of the prophets, then decide for yourself: Are ancient prophecies today’s reality?

BIBLICAL OLD TESTAMENT MYSTERIES: Did God Destroy Sodom, Gomorrah and the Tower of Babel?
The southern end of the Dead Sea is believed to be the ancient land of Canaan site of the legendary cities of sin?Sodom and Gomorrah.  According to the Bible, these cities, along with three others, were destroyed by fire and brimstone.  But did these cities even exist?  Were there really two cities called Sodom and Gomorrah. . . so wicked they were utterly demolished by God?  Has evidence been found that finally proves the biblical account and actually pinpoints the exact site of these five cities?  Archaeological discoveries include the findings of actual bodies encased in salt, as the Bible states in Genesis.  Join us as we shed new light on an age-old argument: were Sodom and Gomorrah real cities or moralistic myths?

Some of the animosity in the world today can be traced to a single event related in the Bible: the confusion of language and the dispersion of the races at the Tower of Babel.  But was there ever such a tower to begin with?  And if there was . . . has it really been found in ancient Babylon?  Can we actually confirm that there was a time in the distant past when everyone spoke the same language and essentially belonged to the same race?  Do the modern sciences of linguistics, sociology and archaeology tell us that a common language and common ancestry all arise from a single place on earth and a single point in time?  Surprising answers to this age-old mystery will connect you to your past and the sociopolitical problems in many parts of the world today.
