Book Synopsis The Nature of God’s Divine Redemption by : John R. Matthew
Download or read book The Nature of God’s Divine Redemption written by John R. Matthew and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2014-08-18 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book was born out of a desire to lift your spirit. As we look around us today, we see a lot of pain and sorrow and misery. The concept of “The Nature of God’s Divine Redemption” is a deliberate intention to encourage you and to lift your hope, to put your mind on something better and a superior way. The book tells you, “If the son of man set you free, you are free indeed” (John 8: 36, King James Bible). That is what is “The Nature of God’s Redemption” is about. We are told that whatsoever a man thinks in his heart so is he. The idea behind the book is to help you to think good thoughts and to lift your minds from horizontal things to vertical things. God’s love is the most amazing thing. The book tells that faith is also amazing. “It takes far more faith to believe in the intellectually chic and fashionable evolutionary myth than it does to believe in the existence of God.” Moreover, it says, “Evolution is based entirely on faith because no facts or proof have ever been found to support it!” Faith does play a primary role in the life of a Christian. For the person who truly wants to seek God and learn to please Him, Hebrews 11:6 tells us that: “But without faith it is impossible to please God: for him that cometh to God must believe that He is and that He is a rewarded of them that diligently seek Him” Faith is vital to a Christian. In fact, without it, no one can please God. Notice this verse says that those seeking God “must believe that He is.” Also the book articulates that “a deep belief in God, who ‘rewards’ all who ‘diligently seek Him, requires proof of His existence.” It says it is “After proof has been established, then—and only then can one have faith—absolute confidence that what man does is being recorded in God’s mind, to be remembered when he receives his reward.” If you are uncertain that God exists because proof of that existence has not been firmly established, then, under fire, your faith will wane or disappear. But when you truly believe in what Jesus Christ did on the Cross of Calvary, God’s Divine love will redeem you and set you free from the heavy load of sin.
Book Synopsis The Gospel of Our King by : Bruce Riley Ashford
Download or read book The Gospel of Our King written by Bruce Riley Ashford and published by Baker Academic. This book was released on 2019-04-16 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This accessible overview shows how the Bible--with its 66 books, dozens of authors, and multiple genres--comes together to provide an overarching story about God the King and explains how the Christian gospel and mission address the totality of human life. Written by a biblical scholar and a theologian, The Gospel of Our King shows how any account of gospel and mission can only be understood in light of the whole biblical testimony. The authors help us understand the Bible's overarching narrative as the story that encompasses everything. This story, revealed by God and centered on Jesus the King, enables us to know and love God and to fulfill his purpose for our lives. It is the framework within which we come to understand the Christian worldview, the Christian gospel, and the Christian mission. When we understand how the whole Bible fits together to shape the totality of a Christian's life, we will be prepared to show the goodness of Christ and the gospel to others in our personal, social, cultural, and global contexts.

Book Synopsis The Queen of Harlem by : Brian Keith Jackson
Download or read book The Queen of Harlem written by Brian Keith Jackson and published by Crown. This book was released on 2003-04-01 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An African American Breakfast at Tiffany’s–a hip, refreshingly candid tale of identity and self—discovery from the critically acclaimed author of The View from Here and Walking Through Mirrors. Mason Randolph, a black preppie of impeccable Southern pedigree, is bound for Stanford Law School after graduating from college. Before embarking on the path to his golden future, however, he takes a detour through Harlem, where he intends to live "authentically" with "real black people." Mason takes the name "Malik" and moves into the orbit of the ever—fabulous Carmen, uptown diva and doyenne of Harlem. Carmen, always ready to have a handsome young man at her fabulous soirees and to add to her devoted entourage, happily takes him under her wing. Fueled by his parents' money and dodging the people who remember him as Mason Randolph, "Malik" masquerades as a "ghettonian," exploring the wonders and pleasures of a Harlem in the midst of a second Renaissance. But his odyssey takes a different turn when he meets Kyra, whose world mirrors the one he has abandoned. As he contemplates the choices Kyra has made, and begins to reexamine his own presumptions about identity and authenticity, Mason realizes that everyone has something to hide and that to get what we want, we have to be willing to let go of our secrets. People compared Brian Keith Jackson's remarkable first novel, The View from Here, to the works of Alice Walker and Toni Morrison, and Publishers Weekly called it "an extraordinary debut...[by] a formidable craftsman and exceptionally gifted storyteller." A novel rich in humor and insight, The Queen of Harlem will earn Jackson a much—deserved place in the center of today’s literary landscape.

Book Synopsis Kiss the Blood Off My Hands by : Robert Miklitsch
Download or read book Kiss the Blood Off My Hands written by Robert Miklitsch and published by University of Illinois Press. This book was released on 2014-09-15 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Consider the usual view of film noir: endless rainy nights populated by down-at-the-heel boxers, writers, and private eyes stumbling toward inescapable doom while stalked by crooked cops and cheating wives in a neon-lit urban jungle. But a new generation of writers is pushing aside the fog of cigarette smoke surrounding classic noir scholarship. In Kiss the Blood Off My Hands: On Classic Film Noir, Robert Miklitsch curates a bold collection of essays that reassesses the genre's iconic style, history, and themes. Contributors analyze the oft-overlooked female detective and little-examined aspects of filmmaking like love songs and radio aesthetics, discuss the significance of the producer and women's pulp fiction, as well as investigate Disney noir and the Fifties heist film, B-movie back projection and blacklisted British directors. At the same time the writers' collective reconsideration unwinds the impact of hot-button topics like race and gender, history and sexuality, technology and transnationality. As bracing as a stiff drink, Kiss the Blood Off My Hands writes the future of noir scholarship in lipstick and chalk lines for film fans and scholars alike.

Book Synopsis The Bamboo Cross by : Homer E. Dowdy
Download or read book The Bamboo Cross written by Homer E. Dowdy and published by . This book was released on 1964 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Bamboo Cross is the explosive story of a people who have been projected into the world's headlines by Communist terrorists. When Red guerillas swept down from the mountains, many of the tribespeople of Viet Nam turned desperately for help to the teachings of the American missionaries who had recently come among them. Miraculously, out of the chaos arose two tribesmen, Sau and his brother Kar, who had been converted to Christianity in their youth. Many of the tribes were still completely pagan, enslaved by sorcerers and offering blood sacrifices to their gods. Sau and Kar traveled untiringly from village to village, rousing the people against the Communists and proclaiming the Good News of the one true Spirit of the Skies. The Communist guerillas first tried persuasion, then threats, then outright persecution, but nothing could shake the new-found devotion to the bamboo Cross of Christ. The people abandoned their worldly goods, fled homeless into the night, at times heroically accepted martyrdom rather than renounce Christianity. - Back cover.

Download or read book Lions at the Gate written by Jeff Langer and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2020-01-13 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the late 1970's the cocaine was pure and the lust for sex, drugs, and money corrupted the body and soul. The casino boom was flourishing in Atlantic City; and the Natalie Crime Family was making millions. However, the son of a Brooklyn crime boss became slipshod and haughty, disregarding the code of silence and the old-world philosophy of Sicily. This leads to a series of catastrophic events all caught on F.B.I. surveillance tapes. This is a gripping look at the mafia mentality, narrated by a convict rotting away in a federal prison, who reflects back upon his life explaining what went wrong and how the events of the spring of 1977 destroyed one of the most powerful crime families in the world. What makes Lions at the Gate special is the naked depiction of the mafia, the kangaroo courts, and the corrupt incarceration system.
