The Beckoning Light and Home to the Light are combined in one book to indicate to the reader the scope of messages brought to us by Archangel Gabriel from 1987 to 1999.

May the reader glean from the pages all that s/he needs to know to awaken and return home to God.

Ancients traveled far and paid handsomely to hear the sibyls and oracles channel wisdom from the gods. The Holy Bible writes of many prophets and seers, but divination by ordinary people was strongly prohibited. As a result, mediums and psychics have since been laughed at, ostracized, and even burned at the stake.

He clearly stated that this book is not about a horrific end-time but, rather, humankinds journey back home to God. Also, Jesus the Christ told us about his true journey two thousand years ago, correcting some...
