Book Description
Recorded history is a finely-woven magic fabric of intricate lies about events predating the sixteenth century. There is not a single piece of evidence that can be reliably and independently traced back earlier than the eleventh century. This book details events that are substantiated by hard facts and logic, and validated by new astronomical research and statistical analysis of ancient sources.

Calculations are only as good as your numbers.......2007-08-03
Yes, we can all agree that mainstream history is nearly 100% BS due to politics, economics, ego, problems with dating techniques, and various conspiracies. Agreed. But, I've been researching the distinct possibility that human history (in terms of civilizations) are much more ancient than we've been told, so coming across this book was very interesting to me. I wondered how Fomenko could be wrong (if at all) because he is very persuasive in his presentations. Then it dawned on me. If at previous times in prehistory, due to the various catastrophies that are well documented (comets, asteroids, planetary disruptions, plasma discharge, pole reversals, etc) the Earth was in a different position in relation to the sun, different tilt on its axis, different orbit, different rotation (in terms of velocity and DIRECTION), and the continents were in different positions, then would this not cause the ancients to see the sky (constellations) differently? In other words, is Fomenko making erronious assumptions about the physics of the Earth in pre-history, which then corrupt his data with regards to dating the relevant astrology? The last event to seriously disrupt our planet occured roughly 3500 years ago, according to other good researchers, so is it possible Fomenko has been confused by this? The vastly different physics of our planet in the not so distant past may explain this confusion, which is not to say the "mainstream" version of history is correct; on the contrary. I am not an expert in these fields, but wanted to see if this idea could spark discussion.
Pants on fire?.......2007-07-19
Will people ever read before spamming? Yes, Jesuits could not rewrite world history alone, they had help. Anyway, Dr Prof Acad A.Fomenko does not point to jesuits as the driving force of world wide history manipulation in published volumes 1,2,3;, actually he barely mentions the poor devils. Check it with 'Search inside' feature, please. China is rarely mentioned either, in fact, Dr Fomenko is completely eurocentric. Right, his theory contradicts all mainstream schools of history, because in their actual state they are all built on blatantly erroneus chronology. You don't need a mysterious cabal (conspiracy) to falsify history, the falsification is its modus operandi. It is inherent to history(ians) to falsify (distort) events, as it is inherent to humans to boast as it is inherent to power (authority) to legimize itself by referrring to glorious past made to its own order. Dr Prof Fomenko and team have identified scores of instances of such manipulation in Russian, European, etc.. history, and delivered valid statistical proof thereof. His own 'reconstruction' is completely another story. Forget c14 as a valid method of dating. W.Libby has initially discovered a brilliant method of INDEPENDENT dating. Too bad, c14 method has become a joke after a forced marrige with dendrochronology with consensual chronological scale inbuilt. Radiocarbon method can't stand blind tests, but is so very productive as a rubberstamp.
Accepted History & Chronology Must Be Changed. .......2007-04-09
There is no doubt that history as most know it is a sham, & institution's version of History both University & Church is fradulent & inaccurate. Everything was established with an agenda, The real "Dark Ages" are now when we have access to incredible amounts of information past authorities & more important 'common folk' didn't have but our institutions & educators are slow to evolve because of what has ignorantly & arrogantly been taught for too long. This is on many subjects not just Chronology.
For anyone to question "Why would a Mathematician have anything credible to say of History?" The answer is from Dr. Fomenko's preface in the book: "It would be worthwhile to remind the reader that in the XVI-XVII century Chronology was considered to be a subdivision of Mathematics." These volumes could possibly be some of the most important works to date & should be read by everyone with an interest in History, especially professors & educators who have a duty to the public. I have read both books & must say that 'Chronology 1' has some very eye opening & revolutionary information. Even if these volumes are part true the implications are profound & opens the doors to further investigations & questions which must be done. I speak several different lanquages & must say the logic Dr. Fomenko uses with "inflection" of words & words being read from left to right in one region & right to left in another then written backwards, the removal of vowels & get down to basics of words, or different cities & locations having the same name etc. is correct. Vowel usage has always been optional & varied, actually complicating linquistics & study. The first thing one has to understand is that words never had a fixed spelling in history like we do now, the spelling of words was mutable & regional, as well as names & titles of people were vast, varied & changed, NOTHING WAS FIXED or understood linear. Matters of Life & Death as well as financial profiteering yesterday & today were & are made with ignorant, illogical & conspiratorial views of history & reality, it's time people get closer to the Truth & society collectively grow up.
Very Interesting.......2007-03-07
It is a good proposal and I believe it will mature into something even better in the future. I think it deserves to be read.
History as Science Fiction.......2007-01-10
Anatoly Fomenko has written a very intriguing book, full of pictures, charts, and computer 'proof' of his thesis: backwards of AD900 we don't really know what happened or when. Between AD900 and AD1600 there is more certainty, but there is still a lot of fuzzy ground, and things don't get reliable until we get past the 1600's where the printing press made it very difficult for the perpetrators of this timeline manipulation to change anything that had been committed to print. The Dark Ages did not happen. Books were burned for a reason. One organization has doubled the actual length of its existence by expanding the real chronology. Read why.
I had always wondered why Christ died about AD33 and yet men waited until the 11th century to form the Knights Templar, the Cathars, etc and go after the Holy Land by force. Why the 1000 year gap? Turns out there wasn't more than a 10-12 year gap and he proves it using astronomy. This also implies that the planet is not as old as we have been told, and current Christian and other creationist scientists are already championing that idea without being aware of Fomenko's book. The two groups, creationist scientists and the Russian mathematical analysts corroborate each other. Fascinating.
Of course, all this flies in the face of what we have been told traditionally is the 'proper' chronology of western civilization, and most readers will experience 'cognitive dissonance' in reading this book. It means that our history going backwards from AD1600 becomes progressively more incorrect and unreliable until it cannot be trusted at all... in the space of 700-800 years.
Naturally, the curious, open-minded reader will want to know WHO did this, WHY, and did any of the events we think of as really ancient ever happen?
Dr. Fomenko is a respected scientist/mathematician at Moscow State University who has already answered these questions to the satisfaction of his initially skeptical colleagues. Most of them are now believers, a few still refuse to believe (the usual diehards), and of course the western press has ignored Fomenko's work -- for obvious reasons when you read the book. The ones who perpetrated this chronology ruse have a lot to answer for. They are still with us. That's why this book is a well-kept secret.
I gave the book a 4-star rating because I was unable to check out some of his claims; those I checked were as he said. But if even 1/3 of his claims are true, this punches a big hole in what we think is our history, the meaning of western civilization, our educational process (for repeating the ruse as gospel), and the trustworthiness of the organization that perpetrated this ruse, well-intentioned or not.
This book relates to current research into a Young Earth paradigm, to John Keel's discoveries about our planet, and Fr Malachi Martin's insights (in his now out-of-print books). We are indeed sheep who are manipulated and kept ignorant -- for a reason. While knowing what these men have to say may be the "booby prize" (as in: 'what can you do with this knowledge?'), it will provide interesting reading. Didn't someone say: "...and the Truth will set you free."?? For you to judge if this book contains the truth.

Classic 'revival history' book.......2000-08-26
Wesley Duewel has certainly done us a favour with the publication of this book. Written in a very readable style, it held my attention from start to finish, and that's a full 350+ pages worth! He gives more than a glimpse of a great many spiritual awakenings right through the centuries. Many are well-known stories, others less so; but all are absorbing and detailed accounts of fascinating moves of God's Spirit. An essential study for anyone interested in revivals. I loved it and continue to use it for reference.

Book Description
"Catch Fire" is a call to the professing Christian to pursue individual revival which could lead to corporate revival and, in turn, to an increased evangelistic impact upon society. 2 Chronicles 7:14 calls upon God's people to humble themselves, to pray, to seek God's face, and to turn from their wicked ways. This book explains in practical terms and with a sound theological foundation what each of these terms really mean and what they require from the church. It is a passionate call to recover faith in the power of God to do exceedingly and abundantly beyond all that the church could imagine.
Book Description
"This is not your father's revival," writes legendary youth leader Winkie Pratney to the youth of today, showing them the part they will play in the fresh, exciting move of God that is now beginning. In Fire on the Horizon, Winkie writes about two forms of divine fire: judgment fire and the fire of awakening. The first, he says, God will use to get the attention of our society and of His church in the coming days. The second he is using to display His greatness and glory to bring about revival and harvest in these end times. And contrary to popular sociological opinion, GenX and GenNext-the "slackers"-have a critical role to play, a divine appointment with destiny. Winkie documents how the participation of our young people in this new revival is vital to the fulfillment of God's purposes on earth.

Finally! A preacher with HOPE for the future!.......1999-11-28
In a year full of Christian doomsayers cranking out books about Y2K and the "last days," it's so refreshing to find a Christian author like Winkie Pratney, who expresses hope for this generation of young people. Winkie Pratney's passion for young people is evident throughout this very readable book, as is his sense of hope for the future.
As Pratney says in this book, "This is not your father's revival." And he's right. We in the ministry can benefit from Pratney's wisdom and prophetic insight to do what we can to guide young people -- while understanding that this is their revival, not ours.
Everyone involved in youth ministry -- or in *any* ministry, for that matter -- should read this book.
This is the revival generation........1999-10-29
Why is this generation different? This book will tell you as a very intelligent and very spiritual man (who doubtless has spent hours upon hours in broken prayer before the Lord)shows us what the coming revival will look like. Not like the false "revivals" that we see now. This will come and be world-changing and generation-shaking. I recommend it for youth leaders and youth alike. Get serious. Seek God. Read the Word of God after that read this book, too!
painful surgery that cuts straight to the heart... but live!.......1999-06-04
Mr.Pratney is a intinerant evangelist, speaking to thousands of youth yearly. Winning Decision magazines contest "Why I believe in God," Winkie is a gifted communicator.

Interested in Revival? A must read!.......1998-08-10
I have been a skeptic about non-conformist activities usually sighted at so-called revivals. This book has convicted me of not being "ready" to receive Jesus Christ, even though I thought I was "born again", and in every way, a practicing, serving Christian. Well written, well researched, but easy to read. This book is one of those few things that might well be life changing! A must read for those who are searching for Christ's coming.
Excellent treatise on the need for, the glories of revival.......1998-06-24
Dr. Brown gives a soul stirring treatise of the need for revival in our society. Taking past occurances and past revivalists he shows how we are so lacking today. He points out the glories and the pitfalls of the manifestations of revival as well. Makes you want to read more.
Book Description

Whilst each revival is different the author reveals the common characteristics and reoccurring experiences which come to the fore during times of God's visitation. Read about the heaven-sent blessings, conviction of sin, conversions, healings, physical phenomena, miracles, signs and wonders, deliverances and more. Learn from the past, be challenged for today and be inspired for the future! The book covers: Revivals in Scripture, understanding revivals and awakenings, the characteristic and fruit of revival, why revival is needed, how to see revival, prayer and intercession for revival, opposition, and why revivals cease, visions and prophecies of revival for the United Kingdom and beyond, our responsibility, repentance and personal holiness. The book features some of the most powerful revivals and awakenings from world history, including: The Great Awakenings (American and Britain), 1859 (USA, Ireland, Scotland, Wales and England) and 1904 revivals, Azusa Street Outpouring, Congo, Korean, Indonesian, Lewis and Harris, Pensacola and Argentinean revivals and includes moves of God in Cornwall, Dundee, Kilsyth, East Anglia, North Uist, Ghana, China, Japan, Manchuria, New Zealand, Soviet Union, Nigeria, India and many other places.

Revival Fires and Awakenings. Outpourings of God's Spirit.......2006-08-08
If you only have time to read one book about Christian revivals, then make sure you read this one. I'm glad I did.
I was inspired by this revival book!
If you want someone to spend years researching all the great revivals and bring all the stories and quotes from the revivalists together, so that you can benefit from them, then this book is for you.
All the hard work has been done for us!
When I was a teenager, I always wanted to find one book that covered all the important points of the most important Christian revivals in our history, but it was so hard to find.
Loads of books give brief overviews of various revivals, but I wanted something that was brief and indepth; normally I could only find one or the other. But in this book, I found all the depth and all the great revivals all in one book!
The author researched for years to write this book, he also visited many places where the revivals broke out. In the book, he gives firsthand information from people he met who were used in revivals, and he explains the revival from a firsthand perspective by revealing how much more he learnt about the revival when he visited the sites where some of the revivals took place.
I read Mathew Backholer's other book about missions and watched his programmes on Christian TV, which airs around the world. So I know this guy had dedicated his life to bringing truth to people.
You'll be glad you got hold of this book and you'll probably recommend it to others.
God bless.
I am the author and an avid reader of Church History.......2006-08-08
Being the author of this book: 'Revival Fires and Awakenings, Thirty Moves of the Holy Spirit, A Call to Holiness, Prayer and Intercession for Revival' i have spared no expense ('Diligence is mans precious possession' as the Proverbs declare) in trying to write the ultimate revival book in my labour of love for the past 2 years, to glorify the all powerful God through His Son Jesus Christ of Nazareth and to challenge all those whom call upon the name of the Lord...
God declares "By those who come near Me, I must be regarded as holy; and before all the people I must be glorified" (Leviticus 10:3). Revival is not an option; revival is a MUST. God will not stand to be mocked by popular society without either sending His judgement or revival. I MUST BE GLORIFIED are His words and only in times of revival will nations turn and truly glorify the Lord. God desires is to pour our His Spirit on all flesh, he has no pleasure in the death of the wicked...
A book that is not only educational but enjoyable and challenging, a book full of historical facts and Scriptural references, one that displays the power and majesty of God through the past 400 hundred years on six continents and in 19 countries in varying cultures, from men and women of God who have surrendered their lives fully to Him and have moved in mighty power as the heavens were opened and the Spirit descended to bring about spiritual awakenings; the hills melting like wax before the presence of God, a rending of the heavens, as God comes down and meets with Chrisitans and sinners alike - changing their hearts of stone into flesh, reviving the Church and bringing glory to Jesus.
The book covers:
Understanding revivals and awakenings.
The characteristics and fruit of revival.
Why revival is needed.
How to see revival.
Prayer and intercession for revival.
Opposition and why revivals cease.
Revivals in Scripture.
Visions and prophecies of revival for the United Kingdom and beyond.
Our responsibility, holiness and the need for repentance.
Thirty accounts of revivals and Awakening from around the globe.
The book features:
The Great Awakening, 1859 and 1904 revivals, Azusa Street, Lewis and Harris, Congo, Korean, Indonesian, Pensacola and Argentinean revivals. Revival in Cornwall, Ghana, East Anglia, China, Japan, New Zealand, Manchuria, North Uist and many others.
Read about:
Jonathan Edwards, George Whitefield, The Wesleys, Howell Harris, Charles Finney, General Booth, J.C. Lamphier, Evan Roberts, William Seymour, Jonathan Goforth, Jock Troup, Edwin Orr, Duncan Campbell, Tommy Hicks, Carlos Annacondia, Mary Morrison, Steve Hill, John Kilpatrick and many others.
In conclusion, what God has done in the past He can do again, through those who are surrendered fully to the Master's will, but who will pay the price? To live holy, to die daily, to glorfy Jesus in all that think, say and do, to honour the Holy Bible as the word of God, to allow the Holy Spirit to moves as He desires and to pray and plead the covenant promises of God whilst standing in the gap on behalf of your land.
We have the same Bible as George Whitefield, the Wesley's, Jonathan Edwards, Charles Finney, Howell Harris, J.C. Lamphier, Evan Roberts, William Seymour, Duncan Campbell and Steve Hill etc. They all saw revival in their lifetime as the appropriate Scriptural means were applied as God sovereignly poured out His Spirit to glorfiy Jesus and to change mankind...
