WHAT IS THE TRUTH: CREATION OR EVOLUTION?

The secular culture in which we live operates under the assumption that evolution is true. But the proof points to the biblical story of creation as being the Truth. As you read this book, you will learn:

How scientists proved that “in the beginning God created the heavens and the earth” (Genesis 1:1).”

In The Esa, we will examine God’s plan as it is laid out in the Bible. His plan has included:

working with the Jews to be His witnesses in the ancient world

Of course, we humans, both Jews and Christians, have failed greatly in our roles down through the ages. Thank God that Jesus did not fail.

The Esa is for Jewish people who want to know the truth about Jesus. It is also good for Christians who want to learn about the Tanakh, or Old Testament.

About the author

Mark has a passion for the Bible, which he has been studying and teaching for over 40 years. It has always been Mark’s goal to learn the message that each Bible author intended as opposed to trying to make the Bible agree with his beliefs. Out of His grace, G-d called Mark to write this important four volume series. Indeed, the subject of these books was never Mark’s idea.

In the year 2129, an elite team of Space Defenders uncovers a mysterious metallic vault buried deep within a distant alien pyramid. But they are not alone. Rival alien forces wage a brutal battle to claim the powerful object, triggering a chain of events that unleashes twelve enigmatic energy beings—ancient entities with unimaginable intelligence and purpose.

These entities are not mere observers—they are players.

Diving into the minds and ancestral memories of humanity, they select warriors from different eras—Vikings, Zulus, ninjas, soldiers, and more—to represent them in a high-stakes, interdimensional “game.” Each faction brings its own brutal history, strategy, and instinct for survival into a contest where the rules are unclear and the consequences are deadly.

As past and future collide, and as humanity becomes an unwitting pawn in a cosmic competition, one question remains:

Who will control the game… and what happens to those who lose?

Packed with intense battles, imaginative world-building, and a unique fusion of history and sci-fi, The Entity Game delivers a gripping adventure that challenges the limits of time, power, and destiny.

In 2020, Tony Paquin’s small medical supply company faced an impossible task—fulfilling a federal contract to procure one billion needles and syringes for America’s COVID-19 vaccination effort. What followed was a high-stakes battle against cutthroat factory owners, shady middlemen, relentless scammers, and even the Chinese Communist Party itself.

Through this ordeal, Paquin uncovered a dangerous truth: America’s dependence on China and foreign sources for life-saving drugs, medical supplies, and high-tech devices is a ticking time bomb. Nearly everything that keeps Americans alive is manufactured overseas—often under the control of a geopolitical rival.

The End of Us is more than a real-life thriller. It’s an urgent wake-up call about a critical national security threat—one that could be weaponized in a future conflict. With firsthand insights from inside the global supply chain, Paquin exposes the hidden dangers of America’s medical dependence and lays out what must be done to reclaim control before it’s too late.

This book of word songs in unexpected melodic patterns will surprise you by its equally unusual liveliness. I’m so eager to begin singing for you that, as you noticed, I’ve already written a prefatory poem in one of the varied kinds of triple rhythm units I’ll be illustrating (la LA la; weak STRONG weak; one TWO three; x/x). The strangest thing I’ll be doing in my collection is to bring about a resurrection of ancient stanza patterns embodying the musical structures I love. The uncustomary triple-rhythm stanza forms richly displayed will acquire a real if unlikely novelty by presenting tools so extremely old.

James S. Wynecoop began his public safety career in 1975 at the age of nineteen, becoming one of the youngest Tribal Police Officers on the Spokane Reservation. Those early years laid the foundation for a lifetime of service rooted in community, responsibility, and cultural heritage.

In 1985, Wynecoop traveled north to Alaska’s North Slope, where he served as a Security Officer, Firefighter, and EMT in one of the most remote environments in the United States. Building on his experience, he founded Argus Security, a company that grew rapidly under his leadership—employing more than 500 security officers before being acquired in 1989.

Returning to law enforcement in 1990, Wynecoop accepted the position of Police Captain for the community of La Push, Washington. He later continued his federal service as a Police Officer with the U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Indian Affairs, serving the North Idaho District and the Nez Perce Reservation until the position was eliminated by a reduction in force.

In 1999, Wynecoop joined the Kalispel Tribe of Indians to establish security operations for the Tribe’s new casino. His leadership and vision propelled him into broader responsibility, and he was soon promoted to Executive Director of Public Safety. In this role, he oversaw the Police Department, Fire Department, and Emergency Medical Services, helping guide the growth of the Tribal community’s modern public safety system.

After more than four decades in policing, security, fire, and emergency services, James S. Wynecoop retired in 2022—leaving behind a legacy of leadership, service, and commitment to Tribal communities across the Northwest and Alaska.
