About the book: 2024 / Antonio The mentor always appeared unexpectedly and always on foot. At evening or at dawn, a tall figure of a man in a purple robe and shepherd's sandals appeared, and people began to flock to him from all sides. In his constant calm, simplicity and imperturbable seriousness there was an irresistible attractive force that attracted the hearts of people to him. He began his instructions at that hour when the sunset is blazing in the sky, and fires are lit on the ground to ward off mosquitoes and prepare dinner, when the suffocating heat subsides and a light breeze blows, from which a person’s spirit rises and the strength appears to withstand the adversity that has befallen him. He he spoke about simple and important things, about things that concerned and worried everyone. The fact that their long-suffering country has been hit by droughts, epidemics and hordes of snakes, and the government is doing nothing to somehow make life easier for its fellow citizens, that officials are robbing the already disadvantaged people, and the police and military are only help them with this. He said that the Antichrist had already come to this world; and its name is Republic. The time has come to forget about immediate needs and devote the remaining time to the salvation of the soul. It's time to gather an army to fight the Antichrist.
