FIVE NEW COMMANDMENTS?! Would Adam Approve of Humanity? | Michael J. Simmons | Writers With Purpose
What would the first man think if he returned to Earth today? Would he recognize humanity or question everything we've become?
On this episode of Writers With Purpose, Melvese welcomes Australian author Michael J. Simmons to discuss his provocative book, ADAM RETURNS & The Five New Commandments: The Uniting Testament. Michael recounts an extraordinary experience in Egypt that inspired his spiritual journey and compelled him to write messages he believes offer a new perspective on faith, greed, free will, and humanity's purpose.
Together, we explore his five new commandments, why he believes greed threatens humanity's future, and how embracing compassion, creativity, and personal responsibility could help unite a divided world. This conversation challenges listeners to consider what truly matters and what kind of world we're leaving behind.
