In the year AD 1492, North American was already a populated wilderness, abundant in natural resources sought by foreign conquerors. They were known as explorers. Wealthy societies were already developed by educated Indian tribes with knowledge of navigation, weather patterns, and astronomical cycles.One of the most exciting explorers (Christopher Columbus) was a man that attributed his motivation to God and wrote about it in the Book of Prophecy. Secular historians distorted or deleted many of the astonishing insights disclosed in his journals. Kingdom Road Volume 1 unlocks the mystery of ancient maps used by Christopher Columbus to reach the shores of North America. His journey may have been an effort to rediscover long lost treasures collected by King Solomon.Spreading the kernels of rebellion, Christopher Columbus and a small band of travelers known as Conquistadors triggered an all-out rebellion that erupts across the world and the continent of North America. During the search for treasures, this book reveals an untold story of wars that raged across the continents, between indigenous tribes and an ancient race of beings called "giants" or "Nephilim."

Doctrine of Discovery

But why did Christopher Columbus and his crew treat the Indians so barbarically?

We cannot fully understand or answer this question without first turning to the doctrine of discovery. What is the “doctrine of discovery?”

The ‘doctrine of discovery,’ originates with what historians call a collection of papal bulls issued by the Catholic Church between the years of AD 1452–1496.

I would like to point your attention to one specific papal bull “Dum Diversas” (until different) issued in the year 1452 by Pope Nicholas V (1397–1455). Here is an excerpt.

“We weighing all and singular the premises with due meditation, and noting that since KJV we had formerly by other letters of ours granted among other things free and ample faculty to the aforesaid King Alfonso—to invade, search out, capture, vanquish, and subdue all Saracens and pagans whatsoever, and other enemies of Christ wheresoever placed, and the kingdoms, dukedoms, principalities, dominions, possessions, and all movable and immovable goods whatsoever held and possessed by them and to reduce their persons to perpetual slavery.”

Armed with the doctrine of discovery, Christopher Columbus must have thought that he discovered a paradise. In reality, he landed in Cuba and Jamaica. He had a moral justification for thinking that the Europeans were superior to dehumanized people of color. This systemically racist worldview was reinforced by additional papal bulls issued by the Catholic Church in prior years. For example:

AD 1455—Romanus Pontifex (Roman Pontiff)

AD 1493—Inter caetera (“among other works”)

AD 1506—Ea quae pro bono pacis (“the things that are for the good of peace”)

Biblical text like Genesis 1:28 was a favorite scripture used by the early settlers in North America to morally justify their claim to new territory already occupied by Indian tribes.

And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth. Gen. 1:28, (KJV)

There was also the Treaty of Tordesillan. Signed on June 7, 1494, this meant that newly discovered lands outside of Europe were divided between the Portuguese Empire and the Crown of Castile (Spain).

The world was divided between these two empires.

Finally, as a historical detective, I was compelled to examine the last will and testament of Christopher Columbus. In addition to Christopher Columbus speaking very little Italian, he was more fluid in speaking and writing Hebrew.

In his will, Christopher Columbus made the following wishes, which were curiously consistent with Jewish customs:

1. He tithed 1/10 of his earnings to help poor girls.
2. He left money to a Jewish man that lived at the entrance of a Jewish community.
3. Columbus left monetary funding to support a crusade; he hoped others would use to liberate Jerusalem.

In addition to the doctrine of discovery, the legal justification for the acquisition of land and minerals found by early settlers were brought up in a U.S. Supreme Court case in AD 1823. The case was about rather Indian chiefs had a right to sale land to private owners.

Private buyers could not legally purchase land from the Indians because the courts ruled that Indians only had the right to occupy the land but did not have the right of ownership.

Here are some official statements from the Supreme Court case presided over by Chief Justice John Marshall in the case Johnson v. McIntosh, AD 1823.

This impairment of native sovereignty was subject to the recognition that the natives could live on the land but that they could not grant the land to a private individual.

This 1823 court ruling was made manifest because the land itself was subject to the dominion and control of the nation which discovered and conquered it.

The treatment of the Indian and the acquisition of their land would have been unacceptable if they believed that Indians were civilized and also full of the Spirit of God.

It was imperative that Indians were labeled as savages—a race without faith. The present-day neglect to teach on the present-day ministry of the Holy Spirit still invites unbalanced social and legal traditions between mankind and his neighbors.

The Atlantis of the Sands

In the Middle East, there is believed to be a lost city once populated by giants. This city is believed to have existed in 3000 BC, called “Iram.” It means “city of the tent poles.” It was located in a region named “Uber.” It has been described as the city of death or the evil city. A fictional book about the city was written and named The Call of Cthulhu (1926). The author was Howard Phillips Lovecraft (1890–1937).

In this supposedly fictional book, the author writes about the “Cthulhu Cult” and the “Old Ones.” The book examines how the human mind functions when confronted by a superior intelligence from another world. The society mentioned in the book is made up of the offspring of angelic beings having mated with human women. This society existed deep beneath t...
