In spite of endless claims of prostate cancer cures, where is the proof? Tom McLaughlin has set out on a quest to find that proof and is asking other prostate cancer victims to join him in his quest by providing vital information through a prostate cancer survey
om McLaughlin has prostate cancer. He has been on ‘Watchful Waiting’ for 13 years, all the while watching his PSA go steadily up. He believes there are cures, he is determined to find them and he is asking others to join him.
“As with all the men attempting to find a way out of the death sentence imposed by a prostate cancer ruling,” McLaughlin stated, “I plan to be part of the quest for a solution…to find needles in any number of haystacks…real cures! But this work needs the combined efforts of a multitude of prostate cancer victims, all working together to pass on to us the real gold, the cures that they have used themselves and found to work in shutting down their rising PSA test scores. Working together, we can do this.”
The plan is simple. Prostate cancer victims are asked to fill out a simple ‘Cure Success Survey’. Any prostate cancer sufferer can participate in the survey whether that victim has been successful or has perhaps struggled through any number of attempts to find a cure to control PSA test score results. The survey collects only the key information that clearly identifies what works and what does not. This information will greatly help other prostate cancer victims.
The stakes are high. Every year about 35,000 men will die of prostate cancer. One in six men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer during his lifetime. Prostate cancer is the second leading cause of cancer death in American men, behind lung cancer and about 1 man in 36 will die of prostate cancer.
McLaughlin's quest is to assemble empirical data about prostate cure claims - that are not yet proven - but may be. Those who fill out the survey and become members will receive information as to the veracity of prostate cancer cures…information that at first is simply unproven claims. As time goes by the collection of information will hone in on prostate cancer cures that have been PROVEN and repeatedly verified by the very prostate cancer victims who have pioneered their use.
“We are asking,” continued McLaughlin, “the lucky few who have discovered a prostate cancer cure that really worked for them to fill out a ‘Cure Success Survey’ as soon as possible. It only takes a few minutes and there is no cost or risk involved. The multitudes of prostate cancer victims need to hear about these success stories. And we need to hear about failures too, so that hopeful prostate cancer victims do not waste precious time pointlessly chasing their dream of a cure.”
Tom McLaughlin is available for media interview and can be reached using the information below. More information is available at the group’s website. Prostate cancer victims can take the ‘Cure Success Survey’ by visiting http://www.surveygizmo.com/s3/706793/Cure-Success-Survey
Profile:
Tom McLaughlin holds an MBA in Executive Management and has extensive experience in directing a wide range of software and product development projects for Fortune 500 companies. He is particularly well suited to head up an operation to collect and organize Cure Success Survey responses to ensure that the compiled information presented to members is easily understood and suitable for intuitive usage.
Mr. McLaughlin was diagnosed with a Gleason 8 prostate cancer in year 1998 and soon thereafter underwent a radical prostatectomy. Since the surgery his PSA has gradually risen to 5.2. He has been on a program of “Watchful Waiting” for the entire time. He devotes much of his time to researching cures for prostate cancer.

Prostate Cancer – The Time For A Prostate Cancer Cure Is Here
Saturday, November 26, 2011
Kimberly Vargas, Award Winning Author Of ‘Gumbeaux’ To Appear On The Authors Show Radio
In ‘Gumbeaux’, Kimberly Vargas’ award winning adventure novel, readers have an opportunity to immerse themselves in vivid and richly drawn experiences of Louisiana people, culture and traditions
Author Kimberly Vargas will appear on The Authors Show radio version beginning on November 28, 2011 to discuss her award winning adventure novel, ‘Gumbeaux’.
Nearly driven to homicide by an alcoholic caretaker, a sheltered, rebellious young heiress disappears into New Orleans to heal in peace from the death of her parents. In moving from Washington, D.C. to Louisiana, she experiences culture shock and freedom for the first time. The title refers to a Cajun restaurant where she takes a job as a waitress. There she engages in many misadventures with often hilarious results. Years later, she is haunted by the conviction that she may have left part of her soul behind in the deep south, and must face her dark, reckless past in order to win it back.
A Washington, DC psychologist is surprised to discover that her new patient is the wealthy and powerful philanthropist Mary Fait. Mary is the granddaughter of one of the greatest painters of the 20th Century. Despite her position, Mary is troubled by, what she refers to as, "a fracture in her soul". She is haunted by memories of her past and feels she must confront them but is afraid to do so.
“I am excited and honored,” stated Ms. Vargas, “to make an appearance on The Authors Show. The characters of ‘Gumbeaux’ are ready to take on a new group of readers to delight and entertain. I hope readers enjoy the adventures of Mary Veronica Fait and the Louisiana cultural immersion program the book presents.”
In a recent review, Andrea Glass of Writer’s Way stated, “To me, the mark of a successful novel is that I care about the characters, and I did! The protagonist has a problem that she is seeking help for. Her therapist, and the reader, through her diaries, follows her coming of age journey through the men, money, and mysteries of the South. When I finished reading ‘Gumbeaux’, I was ready to book a flight to New Orleans, and I envision seeing ‘Gumbeaux’ on the big screen”
‘Gumbeaux’ was a 2011 Gold Medal literary contest winner awarded by Readers Favorite.
Kimberly Vargas is available for media interviews. She can be reached using the information below or by email at vavavargas@gmail.com. More information is available at her website. ‘Gumbeaux’ is available at her website and at Amazon.com.

John Meacham Reports Hearing God Speak From A Fiery Cloud In 'Divine Revelation'
Meacham believes Christ is calling upon Christians to join the Armies of Heaven to form Heavenly Churches in America and the rest of the world
In his new book ‘Divine Revelation: A Call From Christ To Join The Armies Of Heaven,’ John Meacham reported hearing God speak from a Fiery Cloud as described in the Bible passage Exodus 13:21. John revealed that the gigantic column-shaped cloud was one hundred meters wide and three hundred meters high. Inside the cloud, a swarming mixture of purple, pink, orange, red, and yellow fire illuminated the predawn sky. From the cloud, Meacham reported that God said these words loud and clear: “Make it simple. Get it right.”
In ‘Divine Revelation,’ John Meacham shares that the Holy Spirit interpreted these words to mean simplify our lives, seek righteousness, accept Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior, and put God first. In his discussion of God speaking, John describes the Holy Spirit parting the pages of his Bible and leading him to the development of a church Shepherd Group Program to help Christians live out these words God spoke from the Fiery Cloud.
In ‘Divine Revelation,’ John Meacham details AIM (An Involved Membership), a five-year Shepherd Group Program focused on spiritual development. This Shepherd Group Program employs a theme Bible passage for each year and provides materials for individual Bible study, class curriculum for group study, and a theme passage for preaching at Sunday worship. Meacham shares how the Holy Spirit parted the pages of his Bible to reveal these theme passages for each of the five years: Romans 12:1-21 – Put God First, John 3:1-21 – Born In Christ, John 6:35-58 – Grow In Christ, Matthew 6:1-21 – Live In Christ, and John 14:1-21 – Conquer In Christ. John listed some of the benefits to a church that institutes the AIM Program as a spiritually hot congregation, Pastors preaching about “Putting God First,” Christians making Christ the core of their lives, elder/leader training in prayer and pastoral care, visiting the sick, fellowship, and both devotional and group Bible study.
In ‘Divine Revelation,’ John Meacham closes his discussion of God speaking by recognizing God’s guidance and strength in his life and the realization that, as is written in Psalm 118:23, “The Lord has done this, and it is marvelous in our eyes.”
John Meacham’s book ‘Divine Revelation: a Call From Christ To Join The Armies Of Heaven’ is a message from Jesus Christ to everyone who calls themselves a Christian. Through the divine revelations of John Meacham and numerous Bible passages, Christ speaks to the reader about accepting Him as their Lord and Savior, about being born again, about leading a rich Spiritual Life, about joining the Armies of Heaven, about Church Reform, and about helping Him prepare the church for His Second Coming.
‘Divine Revelation: A Call From Christ To Join The Armies Of Heaven’s’ primary objectives are to prepare the reader to meet Jesus face-to-face in heaven and to help prepare Christian Churches for the Second Coming of Jesus Christ. This book blesses the reader with the Holy Light of Jesus Christ and then inspires the reader to a closer walk with Jesus.
In addition to ‘Divine Revelation: a Call From Christ To Join The Armies Of Heaven,’ John Meacham wrote the book ‘Is Your Church Heavenly? A Question From Christ For Every Christian.’ John wrote ‘Is Your Church Heavenly?’ when Jesus called him to the Sea of Galilee in January, 2005 to write this book for Him. ‘Is Your Church Heavenly?’ is a current day application of the Seven Letters to the Seven Churches in the Bible book of Revelation and includes a Group Study Guide to be used by churches. Jesus continued to send John Meacham messages about the church when He sent him Seven Messages for Seven Churches in September, 2011. The seven churches Jesus Christ sent messages to where the Episcopals, the Presbyterians, the Methodists, the Pentecostals, the Independents, the Catholics, and the Baptist. John has included each of these seven messages from Christ on his website at www.johnmeacham.tateauthor.com.

Allen Schatz, Author Of 'Game 7 Dead Ball', Named As One Of '50 Great Writers You Should Be Reading'
Schatz was picked from a field of hundreds of authors who appeared on The Authors Show. His work, entitled 'Game 7: Dead Ball', is a thriller filled with secrets, lies and revenge set against the backdrop of baseball's World Series
Allen Schatz, author of 'Game 7 Dead Ball', has been named one of '50 Great Writers You Should Be Reading'. His award came as a result of his appearance on The Authors Show. Schatz was chosen from a field of hundreds of authors through a public voting process. 'Game 7: Dead Ball' is the first in the Marshall Connors series of novels, that also includes '7th Inning Death' and 'Rally Killer'.
"I feel honored," stated Mr. Schatz, "to be included in the '50 Great Writers You Should Be Reading' book. Knowing that so many thought my work worthy of a vote is humbling. My journey into the publishing world has been challenging to say the least. Having the support of readers makes it all worthwhile."
In 'Game 7: Dead Ball', the story follows fictional events over a two week period during the 2008 baseball World Series. Locations include Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, Tampa / St. Petersburg, Florida and New York City. In the storyline, a puzzle takes shape as the Series unfolds, but the pieces don’t seem to fit: missing women, strange threats, gambling problems, kidnappings, and relationships long dormant are all somehow connected, but major league umpire Marshall Connors may run out of time before he can solve the mystery. With the help of his best friend, Thomas Hillsborough--ex-CIA spy--Marshall fights to solve the puzzle before the Series reaches its climax.
A recent Amazon review stated, "Allen Schatz, in his first novel, has proven a welcome newcomer to an overcrowded thriller market sadly diluted with average ho-hum fare... I would highly recommend this book to any thriller fan who is tired of the same old mediocre drivel that is plaguing our bookshelves currently. Schatz has proven he belongs in the writing game."
Allen Schatz is available for media interviews and can be reached using the information below, or by email at allen.schatz@yahoo.com. More information is available at his website: allenschatz.com. 'Game 7: Dead Ball' is available in softcover at Amazon.com, Barnes&Noble.com and CreateSpace. The book is available in ebook format at Amazon.com, Barnes and Noble, iTunes, Diesel, Sony, Kobo and Smashwords.
Profile:
'Game 7: Dead Ball' is the first book in what is now known as the Marshall Connors Series of novels. Allen has been writing in various forms throughout his 25+ year professional career (CPA/accountant; currently providing consulting services out of his home office). He added fiction writing to the mix beginning in 2008 and has built a solid following of fans in the time since.
Known throughout his career as a creative problem solver, the transition came naturally to Allen. He believes writing offers him the opportunity to dive deeper into that side of his personality, without the inherent boundaries of the business world. His goal in creating works of fiction, on top of letting that part of his persona shine, is to give the reader an escape, if only for a moment, from the day-to-day grind.
Allen currently lives in southwestern PA with his wife of 26 years.

John Meacham Reports Being Born Again By The Holy Spirit In 'Divine Revelation'
Meacham believes Christ is calling upon Christians to join the Armies of Heaven to form Heavenly Churches in America and the rest of the world
In his new book 'Divine Revelation: A Call From Christ To Join The Armies Of Heaven,' John Meacham reports being Born Again by the Holy Spirit as described in the Bible passage John 3:1-8. John discloses that in the shower he asked God to take control of his life because the fear of going to prison and haunting thoughts of a recent anxiety attack consumed his mind and had spun his life out of control. John described that while curled in a fetal position on the shower floor and as the water fell over him, the Holy Spirit entered him and he experienced a new birth.
In 'Divine Revelation,' John Meacham shares that after this Born Again experience he knew that he must relinquish total control of his life to God and he started a routine each morning that included prayer, meditation, and Bible study. He tells the reader that he thanked God for taking the reins of his life and guiding him down the Lord’s path.
In 'Divine Revelation,' John Meacham discusses Jon Meacham’s (no relation) Newsweek article about the death of Christianity in America and the declining number of Christians who are Born Again. Like David Platt in his book 'Radical,' John names the American Dream as one of the primary detriments to Christianity in the United States. Meacham also poses questions about the life focus of Christians in America on such issues as health, financial security, good times, homosexuality, and intellectual endeavor as other life choices, in addition to the American dream, that prevent Christians from being Born Again.
In 'Divine Revelation,' John Meacham closes his discussion of being Born Again with a word of thanks to God for his new spiritual life and a prayer request that every Christian will someday be Born Again.
John Meacham’s book 'Divine Revelation: A Call From Christ To Join The Armies Of Heaven” is a message from Jesus Christ to everyone who calls themselves a Christian. Through the divine revelations of John Meacham and numerous Bible passages Christ speaks to the reader about accepting Him as their Lord and Savior, about being Born Again, about leading a rich Spiritual Life, about joining the Armies of Heaven, about Church Reform, and about helping Him prepare the church for His Second Coming.

Author Tom O'Grady, Jr. Releases ‘Degree of Difficulty’ In Paperback And EBook Formats
Set in Acapulco in the seventies, a hot spot for the rich and famous, the plot of 'Degree of Difficulty' centers around cliff diving and, in the tradition of Hitchcock movies, sweeps the reader along in a mixture of suspense, murder and romance
Author Tom O'Grady Jr. recently released his second novel, 'Degree Of Difficulty'. The book is now available in both paperback and Kindle formats.
Ian Connors, a young professional with a desire to succeed in the business world, sets off on a vacation to fulfill his childhood dream; to dive the cliffs of Acapulco. A trained diver, Ian knows the risks, but little does he know that the most dangerous part of his trip won’t be the Dive. Led by Manny Arroyo, a smiling twelve year old tour guide with a heart of gold, Ian and his friend Spook take in the beauty of Acapulco Bay and its surroundings, including Robyn Baldwin and her girlfriends. But ever-present behind the beauty lurks the ugly reality of greed, and a cast of devious characters who will do anything necessary to get what they want. In the world of competition diving every dive has an assigned Degree of Difficulty. Standing eighty five feet above the churning waters of the canyon at La Quebrada and the corrupt world he’s stumbled into, Ian must make the most difficult decision of his life; step to the edge and make a leap of faith, or run away.
"I had a lot of fun writing this book," stated Mr. O'Grady, "because the plot twists and turns. You never know what might happen on the next page but you want to find out. Even I wanted to find out. It’s like being on the edge of a cliff with the main character, Ian Connors.”
Set in Acapulco in the seventies, a hot spot for the rich and famous, 'Degree of Difficulty' sweeps the reader along like a Hitchcock movie, from the downtown canyons of Philadelphia to the blue water canyon of La Quebrada, twisting and turning like the treacherous mountain roads of Mexico.
"I find Ian Connors to be an interesting character," stated Mr. O'Grady, "who will probably end up in future books. Readers will want to get to a beach or curl up in a chair because they won’t want to get up till the last word."
Tom O'Grady is available for media interviews and can be reached using the information below. More information is available at his website. 'Degree Of Difficulty' is available at Amazon.com, Barnes and Noble and at most book retailers. The book is available in Kindle, Nook, Sony EReader, Apple Ipad and other digital formats.

Author Michielle DJ Beck Releases ‘Sorry I Thought I Loved You’, Help For Relationship Addicts And Codependents
Zsa Zsa Gabor has been married 9 times, Larry King and Elizabeth Taylor 8 times each. Kim Kardashian filed for divorce after 72 days and Dr. Drew has admitted he is codependent. Relationship addicts and codependents are not only found in the world of celebrities. These types of relationships affect a very large percentage of the general population. Author Michielle DJ Beck offers hope and real answers in her new release ‘Sorry, I Thought I Loved You’
Relationship addiction and codependency are found in the media today like never before. This does not necessarily mean these are on the rise, as it is more likely the general public is becoming more aware of these problems as the result of that media coverage. Relationship addiction and codependency have as many causes as there are relationship addicts and codependents. The question for those involved in such situations is perhaps not, ‘What caused this?’ but rather ‘How can I heal myself of this?’
Unlike books written by psychologists or mental health professionals, Michielle Beck’s groundbreaking work, ‘Sorry, I Though I Loved You’, offers down to earth, practical advice. There is no technical jargon or one-size-fits-all advice. Ms. Beck hopes her audience will understand that the book was written by a real, normal person for other real, normal people who are struggling with their relationships - any kind of relationships, not just romantic ones. She knows her subject matter intimately, being married for the first time at age 17 and divorced for the fifth time at age 34. There aren't many other books like this one, but there are many, many people who have relationship problems who can immediately benefit from Beck’s new release.
"I've been fortunate,” stated Ms. Beck, “to have quite a bit of encouragement to write this book - people telling me my story sounds like something that should be on Oprah or Dr. Drew, or maybe a Lifetime movie. I didn't write it for that reason, though. I wrote it because I wanted to show that real people can have these kinds of problems, and they can come out healthy and happy on the other side.”
"I know there are people out there like me who have struggled, and are still struggling, with relationships. They aren't alone, and they need to know that someone else has been where they are - and has gotten past that point in life. They can, too. Hope and help are available to everyone, but the addicts or codependent has to want to get better. We must grant ourselves permission to put our interests first, and care enough about ourselves to get the help we need."

Truth or Hoax – Christ Sends Seven Messages to Seven Churches
Meacham believes Christ is calling upon Christians to join the Armies of Heaven and fight in a Righteous Revolution to form Heavenly Churches in America and the rest of the world
In April, 2009, Jon Meacham reported the end of Christian America in Newsweek. Now in September, 2011, Jesus Christ has sent John Meacham (no relation), author of ‘Divine Revelation,” Seven Messages for Seven Churches’ a series of messages and is recruiting Christians to join the Armies of Heaven and fight in a Righteous Revolution to form Heavenly Churches in America and the rest of the world. This release includes these Seven Messages to the Episcopal Church, the Presbyterian Church, the Methodist Church, Pentecostal Churches, Independent Churches, the Catholic Church, and Baptist Churches. We recommend that these messages from Jesus Christ be studied by everyone in preparation for the coming events of 2012.
This is a message from Jesus Christ to the Episcopal Church. “I am the one who has the seven spirits of God and the seven stars. I know what you are doing; I know that you have the reputation of being alive, even though you are dead! So wake up, and strengthen what you still have before it dies completely. You celebrate the Eucharist, but I am not there. You read from the Book of Common Prayer, yet the Word of God falls on deaf ears. You speak of advocacy, but you do not proclaim my message of salvation to the lost. You speak of community, yet you have lost the children that I love. You speak of networking, but you are not reflecting My Holy Light into the world. You speak of partnerships, yet you bless unholy unions. I challenge you to shed your sin-soiled clothes, to put on My White Linens, to join the Armies of Heaven, and to help Me restore My Church. If you have ears, then, listen to what the Spirit says to the churches.”
This is a message from Jesus Christ to the Presbyterian Church. “I am the Son of God whose eyes blaze like fire, whose feet shine like polished brass. I know what you do. I know your love, your faithfulness, your service, and your patience. But this is what I have against you: you tolerate those lesbians. You have placed those lesbians in a position of divine ordination and now you knell beside their beds and worship a world of sexual pleasure rather than praying to My Father to forgive your sins of sexual immorality. If you do not turn from these hideous sins and repent, you will forever know the suffering that Satan brings upon those who worship in his house of sensual pleasures. To those who see My Holy Light and come out of the darkness of sexual immorality, I will give them eternal peace and forever let them glow in the light of the bright morning star. I challenge you to shed your sin soiled clothes, to put on My White Linens, to join the Armies of Heaven, and to help Me restore My Church. If you have ears, then, listen to what the Spirit says to the churches.”
This is a message from Jesus Christ to the Methodist Church. “I am the Faithful and True Witness, who is the origin of all God has created. I know what you have done; I know that you are lukewarm. How I wish you would hear me knocking on your thousand doors and let Me in. For I would advise you, that, you need to strive for spiritual riches rather than filling your Conference Coffers. You need to put on the My White Linens of My Army rather than your Processional Robes. You need to focus your sight on the Kingdom of Heaven rather than your earthly kingdom. Repent! And turn away from your path of heavenly indifference and run toward the spiritually hot world of My Father’s Kingdom. To those who win the victory, I will give the right to sit beside me on my throne. I challenge you to shed your sin-soiled clothes, to put on My White Linens, to join the Armies of Heaven, and to help Me restore My Church. If you have ears, then, listen to what the Spirit says to the churches.”
This is a message from Jesus Christ to Pentecostal Churches. “I am the one who has the sharp two-edged sword. I know where you live, there in those cities where Satan has spread his reign. You are true to me, but I have these things against you: There are some among you who follow the teachings of those prosperity preachers who have thought My Followers to live for themselves and not for Me. You have not shown the courage to stand against these false teachers and now I command you to turn from your sins and take up My two-edged sword and fight against those people that lead My Followers astray. To those who win the victory I will give some of the bread of My body and I will also give each of them a white stone with their new heavenly name known only to those who receive it. I challenge you to shed your sin-soiled clothes, to put on My White Linens, to join the Armies of Heaven, and to help me restore My Church. If you have ears, then, listen to what the Spirit says to the churches.”
This is a message from Jesus Christ to Independent Christian Churches. “I am the first and the last: who died and lived again. I know that you preach about a turning point and that you are trying to lead My Followers down the path of righteousness. I know that you teach My Followers about a new beginning in their spiritual life and show them a life of holiness. I know that you are giving My Followers insight into living a divine spiritual life and are preparing them for eternal life in My Father’s Heavenly Kingdom. Even though much of your world belongs to Satan, I tell you do not be afraid and I encourage you to continue leading My Followers to a life of heavenly riches. For along your divine path, you will come from the shadows into My Holy Light. You will find a stone with your new Christian name. And you will gather the harvest of My Father’s Chosen Children. Remain faithful to Me, even if it means you must suffer, and I will give you life as your prize of victory. I challenge you to put on My White Linens, to join the Armies of Heaven, to lead My Followers, and to help Me restore My Church. If you have ears, then, listen to what the Spirit says to the churches.”
This is a message from Jesus Christ to the Catholic Church. “I am the one who holds the seven stars in His right hand and who walks among the seven lampstands. I know what you have done; I know that you have worked hard and followed all your rules. But this is what I have against you: you do not love me now as you did at first. Think how far you have fallen! Turn from your sins and do what you did at first. Be My Church again and dispel all the greed and hate that infects My Holy Priests, show My Followers the loveliness of lives made free from sin, teach My Followers the freedom of faith in Me, pray for My Peace in the world, seek My Father’s Divine Path for My Holy Church, herald the good news of My arrival, and unite the world in My Holy Name. Fight for freedom and to those who win the victory I will give the right to eat the fruit of the tree of life that grows in the Garden of God and to drink of My Eternal Blood. I challenge you to break free from your chains of orthodoxy, to put on My White Linens, to join the Armies of Heaven, to help Me restore My Church, and to sound the Trumpet of Glory. If you have ears, then, listen to what the Spirit says to the churches.”
This is a message from Jesus Christ to Baptist Churches. “I am the one who is holy and true. I have the key that belonged to David, and when I open a door, no one can close it. I know what you do; I know that you have a little power; you have followed My teaching and you have been faithful to Me. I have opened the door of heaven in front of you and wait with open arms to greet those you send to meet Me. Listen! As for that group that belongs to Satan, those who worship the ways of the world, I will make them come and wash in your Holy Waters of Baptism. I am coming soon. Keep safe what you have, so that no one will rob you of your victory prize. I will make him who is victorious a pillar in the temple of My God, and he will never leave it. I will write on him the name of My God and the name of the city of My God, the new Jerusalem, which will come down out of heaven from My God. I will also write on him My new name. I challenge you to put on My White Linens, to join the Armies of Heaven, to seek the lost for Me, to help Me restore My Church, and to make ready for My Return. If you have ears, then, listen to what the spirit says to the churches.”
John says that, “Jesus Christ is now calling Christians everywhere to experience spiritual birth, to store up heavenly riches, to live a divine spiritual life, to join the Armies of Heaven, to fight for church reform, and to prepare the church for His Second Coming.”
