There is a new book nonfiction "True My Operating As An Angelic Being." The first part of the book decribes where you come from before born and real paintings inside the other place including Father God the boss from a real 50 feet away. The middle has health chapters of people now well from about everything. The last chapters Earth Prophecy: The Answer. How it can be in 2 years with energy from the orbit rings, magnetic lift vehicles, no more money worry and no more debt. Yes, the crooks will be getting out soon.
