Review of Divine Eclipses: The Message of Tav and America's Call to Repentance
[Following is an official OnlineBookClub.org review of "Divine Eclipses: The Message of Tav and America's Call to Repentance" by L. Gardiner Williams.]
A total solar eclipse produced an 'X' pattern over the United States from California to Newfoundland on April 8, 2024. This eclipse was seen around places like Nineveh, suggesting a connection with the Biblical Nineveh, where Jonah preached atonement. The book implies this is a hint America should consider its ethics and pursue change. It also covers the connections between eclipses and historical events and personalities such as Prophet Muhammad and Julius Caesar. The book addresses topics including abortion, changes in adoption policies, and the value of prayer and faith in helping one to overcome obstacles in daily life.
Divine Eclipses: The Message Of Tav And America's Call To Repentance by L. Gardiner Williams is a thought-provoking exploration of how moral and spiritual lessons for America are entwined with events like eclipses. The author relates his own journey and considers the spiritual meanings of eclipses. The author starts off considering his life and the thrill of entering the twenty-first century. He shows interest in the future, particularly 2030, and pictures developments including flying cars and answers to world issues. Williams relates a turning point when he watched a video about an approaching eclipse and was motivated to ask God for direction. He took a reflection of an "X" in his home as a sign. Williams stresses the need for faith and divine direction throughout the book.
I love how the author calls for people to reflect on their actions and provides a critical look at current events in the world. When he connects this to the story of Jonah in the Bible, I really get the point he is making. The exploration in the book is amazing. However, I don't agree with some of the historical events he links to the eclipses, like Nelson Mandela's death and the Battle of Bosworth. As a result, I rate the book 4 out of 5 stars.
The author’s writing style in the book is really engaging and easy to follow. The book offers a deep reflection and a call for us to go back to God. The book also dives into themes like redemption, getting closer to God, forgiveness, divine guidance, and how eclipses are tied to deeper spiritual and moral lessons. I recommend the book to those who read books on spirituality and those who appreciate a critical look at how historical and current issues might be connected to spiritual lessons.
The book was well edited, though I found an error in it. The debate over abortion was also emphasized in the book. The author digs into the arguments on both sides of the issue: some people see abortion as a basic right for women, while others believe it's wrong because they think life begins at conception. The author explains how past beliefs and actions have influenced today's attitudes and practices related to abortion.
