Product Description

This is a rich, multi-faceted novel full of wisdom, a deep awareness of the meaning of sacrifice, and what love for God looks like showcased in utter and complete obedience. Essentially a massive parable, like a parable the novel inspires, instructs, warns, and admonishes. The story is a clarion call for Christians to put away their desires for the world. Gray challenges Christians to recognize and turn away from the massive deception enveloping the Church and uniquely confronts readers with Jesus' admonition to embrace their responsibilities to support and protect those Jews whom God sends to them during the close of the age. This is a serious novel for serious Christians looking for well-written, in-depth fiction, who are tired of insipid characters and instead seek inspiration and examples of total spiritual commitment. Gray shows readers the true cost of such sacrifices; some will choose to abandon everything for the love of God, while others, loving the world or some other god of their own, or worried about how they might appear to those in the world, turn away from that choice. It is a warning against the fatal dangers of ecumenism, Replacement theology, Dominionist theology, the Emergent Church, the Purpose-driven movement, the New Apostolic Reformation, along with a host of other deceptive pitfalls that are 'piling on' at the close of the age to deceive the Bride of Christ. Gray confronts readers with a frighteningly accurate picture of how Christianity today appears to unbelievers-weak, anemic, compromising, effeminate, and totally lacking in truth or power, to be utterly despised and rejected. We see 'cultural Christianity', in which 'religious people' choose to worship a god of their own making, where going to church becomes a replacement for true worship, obedience and the cross. This work is the first in the Aeon Regis ('Age of the King') series: fictional future historical novels that look back on the times just before the return of Jesus, produced in the early days of His millennial reign, written from a wide range of different perspectives - a pastor, a prophet, a physician, a stonemason, an artist, an engineer, an olive grower, a shepherd, a fisherman, a horse, and a lion. Of Seeds and Salt: A Parable of Judgment-the first volume-is written from the perspective of Sartorius Crux Vita, a warrior poet, the centurion who presided at the crucifixion of Christ. Volume I has two parts: Book One-Of Seeds and Salt: A Parable of Judgment. Volume I Book Two is forthcoming. It is a sweeping future historical novel that tells the story of the Ironbridge family-father, mother, the sons and their wives, as they face the maelstrom of assault, betrayals, and challenges Believers will face in a time of deception. As the Church falls away from the faith, deceived by its love for the world, and as America works to bring about a two-state solution in Israel, the novel tells the story of what a Russian and Chinese invasion of America would look like--a bitter but just judgment. It is a modern re-telling of the Parable of the Sower. The seed of God is sown into the hearts of characters as Gray depicts the struggles, obstacles, and opposition that occur as they wrestle against powers and principalities seeking their destruction. Reminiscent of C.S. Lewis in The Screwtape Letters, Gray provides insight into the strategies of deception and opposition generated in the spirit realm through the literary vehicle of 'Protocols' embedded in the novel. These are documents captured from various powers and principalities-demonic entities-that graphically depict how the enemy of mankind has worked to bring about our destruction. Above all, it is a story about the cross of Christ-what it means to embrace it and what it means to reject it. It is a story of salt that has lost its savor, which is then thrown out and trodden under the foot of men. Unless the Church makes immediate and radical changes, such will be its fate.
