Thief in the Night: The Case of the Missing Millennium

£4.95

William Sears

The problem. In the first half of the nineteenth century there was world-wide and fervent expectation that during the 1840's the return of Christ would take place. The story made the headlines and even reached the Congress of the United States. From China and the Middle East to Europe and America, men of conflicting ideas shared in the expectancy. Scoffers were many but the enthusiasm was tremendous, and all agreed on the time. Why? And what became of the story? Did anything happen or was it all a dream?

The solution. Patiently, and with exemplary thoroughness, William Sears set out to solve this mystery. In 'Thief in the Night' he presents his fully detailed 'conduct of the case' in an easy style which enthuses the reader with the excitement of the chase. The solution to which all the clues lead comes as a tremendous challenge.

This is a mystery story with a difference: 'the mystery is a real one', and of vital importance to every human being. The author presents the evidence in 'The Case of the Missing Millennium', in such a way that you can solve it for yourself.

This is an introduction to the Baha'i Faith for Muslims. The Baha'i Faith has its roots in Islam yet many Muslims do not have accurate information about this fast-growing religion.

He describes: The Baha'i view of the Prophet Muhammad and of Islam; The spiritual and ethical teachings of the Baha'i Faith in comparison to Islam; The claim of Baha'u'llah; Baha'i spirituality; Baha'i law, social teachings and community life, and provides a brief history of the Baha'i Faith. Easy reading and full of useful information, this book will also be useful to Baha'is who want to see how their religion relates to Islam.
