Secrets of Eternity
by Annalee Skarin“My increasing love has been the reward for my efforts, for my love is great and my vision true. All that I have I give freely to the world. I seek no credits or rewards. I only ask that men read that which God has revealed through me in humble prayer. If man will but be as prayerful in reading as I have been filled with humble prayer in the writing, then there is still hope for the world.“And so, beloved ones of earth, I say, come stand with me upon the mountain top and permit me to show you the cause of the darkness that it might be dispelled. Let me lead you to the great Christ Light that you might step out into its glory and abide in the new day.“With compassionate love, unfeigned and true, I reach out to tear asunder the veil of the “Gross darkness that has covered the earth and blinded the minds of the people.” With love and tenderness increased a thousand-fold, I will reveal first the weaknesses and the evils and the errors and deceits contained within the earthly mire that you might fully comprehend the issues involved and so step forth into His great Light, redeemed and glorified.”—Annalee Skarin
