Dawn of Destruction - Where was God On September 11? God has had an enemy for several millenniums. His name is Satan. He is and never will be an opposite of God and he will never be a successful counterpart to the Almighty God - the Creator of the Universe! Satan has already been defeated but he is a crafty foe and a methodical manipulator of mankind. He wants to control the minds and lives of all who walk the earth. His primary target, however, is to bring destruction to God's people. On 9-11, he chose to bring his destructive hand to the United States of America. Everyone knows that God is not an "American." But the United States of America is and will always be a "Christian" Nation. Thus the attack on the sacred soil of our Country. In order to tell the outcome of this story, one has to begin at the beginning - with Abraham and Sarah. With Hagar and Ishmael. With God's promise of sending the "Child of Promise" - Isaac. With the Prophetic Word from the Creator of Life, Himself, when He declared that he would send the "Seed" to redeem all of mankind. On September 11th, 2001, God was where He always was and is right now - standing at the threshold of humanity - waiting for someone to call for His help and intervention. Dawn of Destruction is a fictional work based on the Truth as the Bible states it.

It is tempting to regard the perpetrators of the September 11th terrorist attacks as evil incarnate. But their motives, as Bruce Lincoln’s acclaimed Holy Terrors makes clear, were profoundly and intensely religious. Thus what we need after the events of 9/11, Lincoln argues, is greater clarity about what we take religion to be. Holy Terrors begins with a gripping dissection of the instruction manual given to each of the 9/11 hijackers. In their evocation of passages from the Quran, we learn how the terrorists justified acts of destruction and mass murder “in the name of God, the most merciful, the most compassionate.” Lincoln then offers a provocative comparison of President Bush’s October 7, 2001 speech announcing U.S. military action in Afghanistan alongside the videotaped speech released by Osama bin Laden just a few hours later. As Lincoln authoritatively demonstrates, a close analysis of the rhetoric used by leaders as different as George W. Bush and Osama bin Laden—as well as Mohamed Atta and even Jerry Falwell—betrays startling similarities. These commonalities have considerable implications for our understanding of religion and its interrelationships with politics and culture in a postcolonial world, implications that Lincoln draws out with skill and sensitivity. With a chapter new to this edition, “Theses on Religion and Violence,” Holy Terrors remains one of the essential books on September 11 and a classic study on the character of religion. “Modernity has ended twice: in its Marxist form in 1989 Berlin, and in its liberal form on September 11, 2001. In order to understand such major historical changes we need both large-scale and focused analyses—a combination seldom to be found in one volume. But here Bruce Lincoln . . . has given us just such a mix of discrete and large-picture analysis.”—Stephen Healey, Christian Century “From time to time there appears a work . . . that serves to focus the wide-ranging, often contentious discussion of religion’s significance within broader cultural dynamics. Bruce Lincoln’s Holy Terrors is one such text. . . . Anyone still struggling toward a more nuanced comprehension of 9/11 would do well to spend time with this book.”—Theodore Pulcini, Middle East Journal

On September 11, 2001, Sujo John was on the 81st floor of the northern tower of the World Trade Center when the first plane struck the building. Do You Know Where You Are Going? tells in compelling detail the harrowing story of Sujo's descent down the stairwell, and how, as he was about to exit, the building began to fall around him. He talks about his desperate attempts to contact his pregnant wife, who worked in the southern tower of the Twin Towers, and how they finally arrived home some twelve hours after the planes struck. But Do You Know Where You Are Going? is much more than a gripping account of that terrible day. It is a tale of faith in the power of Jesus Christ and a dynamic call for all of us to recognize how short and vulnerable are our lives and how important it is that we welcome Jesus Christ into our hearts. As September 11 showed so vividly, we may plan for a long life in this lifetime, but much more pressing is how we plan for our next life. Sujo argues that only through the saving grace of calling upon Jesus Christ can we be guaranteed the life to come and offers ways we can turn our lives over to Him. Book jacket.

We each remember where we were, what we thought, what we felt, what we heard, and especially what we saw on September 11, 2001. In words, images, and nearly two hours of video, What We Saw captures those moments. Now, in this tenth anniversary edition, Joe Klein delivers an introspective and intimate look at those catastrophic events—along with what we have learned, and how we have changed, since that fateful date. As the world came to a halt that September morning, CBS News journalists worked tirelessly to provide detailed, accurate coverage, from the first interviews with eyewitnesses to a plane crashing into Tower 1 of the World Trade Center to the Towers of Light tribute six months later. In addition to the events that shook America’s biggest city and its capital, What We Saw documents the tragedies that occurred elsewhere: from the crash of United Airlines Flight 93 outside Shanksville, Pennsylvania, to the waves of pain that moved across a New Jersey commuter town. Among the contributors are Jules Naudet, a French filmmaker who was working on a documentary about New York City firefighters when his subjects were called into service; Anna Quindlen, whose thoughts turn to a young family aboard United Airlines Flight 175; David Grann, who captures the hopelessness felt by families searching for missing loved ones; and CBS’s Steve Kroft, who watched a small investment firm that lost dozens of employees slowly pull itself up from despair. In What We Saw, each moment of September 11 and its aftermath is portrayed with candor and honesty by the CBS News correspondents, photographers, camera operators, and journalists who were there. This is an invaluable documentary of a day that forever altered our world.

Two days after the terrible attack against the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001, a union construction worker made a remarkable discovery within the ruins of World Trade Center 6. He saw a cross-like beam that stood on top of a heap of debris. He was stunned by its significance as were countless others after him. The purpose of this book is to trace the thirteen-year odyssey of this iconic cross from World Trade Center 6, to its position atop a concrete abutment within the World Trade Center during the recovery and rebuilding period, to the outside wall of St. Peter’s Roman Catholic Church across from Ground Zero and finally to the National 9/11 Memorial Museum where it remains today. The odyssey also includes a three-year legal battle whose appellate decision found that the Constitution of the United States does not preclude the presence of the Ground Zero cross within the National 9/11 Memorial Museum. This book is the author’s personal memoir. He is a Franciscan priest who, through many uncertain days, was the unofficial guardian of the Ground Zero cross. The concurrent themes of the book treat spirituality, grief sharing, selfless sacrifice, architecture, church history, biblical theology, and litigation. The book tells the story of many obstacles transcended on the way to the triumph of the Ground Zero cross.
