Initially it was not my intention to write a book, I was just looking for answers. Answers to questions I had after my involvement as an infantry paratrooper with the 101st Airborne during the Vietnam War. And my life after death experience after I was stung by Giant Black Wasps went into anaphylactic shock and flat lined. I suffered a cardiac arrest and complete repertory failure. I was later able to relate procedures the medical staff used to resuscitate me while I was dead. I don't have to wonder about life after death, I know. Things To Come will give the reader a thorough understanding of what the Bible says and what Christianity means for a believer. The book is divided into six sections; The Covenants, covers God's Covenants, His chosen people and God's will for mankind. The Holy Spirit, whom the Father sent to us after Christ's assentation, details the twelve current ministries of the Holy Spirit in our lives. The Prince of Darkness explains Satan's role in everyday life. Satan is not omnipresent so he cannot possible involve himself in the daily affairs of eight billion people. God's Providential involvement in everyday life is revealed in the 4th chapter. The Tribulation and the Rapture addresses the final eventual battle between good and evil; Christianity and Islam. The final chapter The Alpha and the Omega specifies the personal relationship a believer has with Christ. Things To Come is a very good book for anyone that desires a deep understanding of Scripture and either does not have the time for daily reading of Scripture or finds the Bible hard to understand. A word about PTS (PTSD), there is no D, PTS is not a disorder. PTS is natural reaction of stress experienced after a person is exposed to a traumatic event. Many people suffer from PTS, it can be the result of a rape, an assault, the loss of a spouse, a child, a sibling, witnessing a horrific event or an accident. What makes PTS different for soldiers is that they are subject to frequent traumatic events over a long period of time. People respond differently to traumatic events, some are more resilient than others. Frequency, duration, and the extreme nature of the event all play a role in recovery. A major component of PTS is the moral dissonance we experience. The event can completely destroy our belief system, the ideas we held that made sense of the world we live in. At any point in time we are a summation of what we know and the experiences we have gone through. Events and information change how we see the world and in effect change who we are. A traumatic event can be so life changing that we are in effect a different person and after a traumatic event, the new you. In order to recover from PTS, it is imperative we reconstruct a new belief system that encompasses our new reality and the new you. In Just War, I (Tom Newman) recount the events that destroyed my worldview and fundamentally changed the person I was. The Company I was with in Vietnam experienced a 97 percent casualties and fatalities. Within my first 30 days in country we had a friendly fire incident that killed eleven and severely wounded nineteen of my fellow troopers. I also witnessed the aftermath of the regular assassination of four year old children. Additionally, when we retook the city of Hue we found the shallow graves of 2,800; judges, doctors, clergy, policeman, and politicians, anyone that could organize a resistance against the communists. It was a very long process for me to make sense of my new realities and the new me. My other book; A Brief History of the Bible' Things To Come, is the information I needed to reconstruct a new worldview bases on my experiences and the new person I had become. If you want to get your life back after suffering from PTS, it is imperative you find a new worldview for the new you.
