Book Synopsis The Holy Spirit, An Experimental And Pratical View by : Octavius Winslow
Download or read book The Holy Spirit, An Experimental And Pratical View written by Octavius Winslow and published by Darolt Books. This book was released on 2020-01-27 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Holy Spirit, An Experimental And Pratical View is a message of meditation based on the Bible and written by Octavius Winslow (1 August 1808 – 5 March 1878), also known as "The Pilgrim's Companion", was a prominent 19th-century evangelical preacher in England and America. A Baptist minister for most of his life and contemporary of Charles Spurgeon and J. C. Ryle, he seceded to the Anglican church in his last decade. Octavius's mother, Mary Forbes (1774 – 1854) had Scottish roots but was born and raised in Bermuda and was the only child of Dr. and Mrs George Forbes. On 6 September 1791, when she was just 17, she married Army Lieutenant Thomas Winslow of the 47th Regiment. Shortly after this, she came under spiritual convictions and was brought to gospel deliverance while pleading the promise, "Ask, and ye shall receive" Octavius seems to have been given his name because he was then the eighth surviving child. As a child, Octavius and family would worship at Pentonville Chapel under the ministry of Rev. Thomas Sheppard. During this time of his life, he suffered from what seemed to be a life-threatening illness. While staying in Twickenham, a nurse accidentally administered an incorrect medicine that doctors would later say would have killed ten men. Octavius's father was from a wealthy family but by 1815, following his retirement from the army, he suffered ill health and the loss of his fortune due to one of several national financial disasters that occurred in this period. A decision was soon made to move to America, but before Mr. Winslow could join his wife and children in New York, he died. At the same time, their youngest child died too. Octavius was but 7 years old. Widowed at 40, responsible for a large family, and scarcely settled in America, Mrs Winslow's entire life was turned upside down. Worst of all, spiritual darkness and despondency overwhelmed her for many months. They were a deeply religious family and Octavius later wrote a book about their experiences from his mother's perspective in a book entitled Life in Jesus. Family historian D. Kenelm Winslow recorded their plight: "Mary had the youngsters out on the streets of New York selling matches and newspapers as soon as they were old enough for such tasks. She set them to any job they could tackle, gathering them around her at night for scripture reading followed by a good sound evangelical harangue and prayers." Mary and her children lived in New York City until 1820. Then, after a four-month visit back to England, they would then move to Sing Sing, NY on the Hudson River for "four years of congenial repose". In 1824, they would move back to New York City for a season of "special revival" where brothers Octavius, Isaac, and George would become converted and later convinced of God's calling to ministry.
Book Synopsis Basics Design 07: Grids by : Gavin Ambrose
Download or read book Basics Design 07: Grids written by Gavin Ambrose and published by AVA Publishing. This book was released on 2008-05 with total page 187 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Basics Design: Grids aims to introduce the basic principles of grid usage in graphic design as practised by contemporary designers. Although these design principles have a long history, methods have been refined, improved and complemented many times, and this process continues today, as new technology creates new media contexts. The book is not intended to be a prescriptive guide to setting up and using grids. Instead it looks at the principles behind grid usage to give the reader the ability to tackle a wide variety of graphic design problems. The book’s main message is that a static and repetitive approach to grid use does not result in effective and creative designs. By developing a clear understanding of the many facets of the grid, order can be delivered to a design but also ample opportunities for expression and creativity. The book also includes case studies juxtaposed with key creative ‘basics’. Contemporary work is supported by concise descriptions, technical expansions and diagrammatic visualisations, enabling the reader to fully understand the work being discussed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first book to provide a full and coherent introduction to the photography of Victorian Scotland.

This authoritative introduction, building upon these other publications, will provide a wide-ranging appreciation of early Scottish photography and in particular that Scottish photography was in the vanguard of many international trends. The material has been structured and the topics organised, with appropriate illustrations, as both a readable narrative and a foundation text for the subject.

Download or read book Island Heat written by A C Stone and published by Grosvenor House Publishing. This book was released on 2022-11-24 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Island heat: Deep Water Octopus is a satirical story that began its conception due to a paper mache octopus. From that humble beginning, began a series of running jokes, and eventually a story. A story which follows Trae, a medic in the army. Trae is a perfectionist, and seeking something that is unattainable - perfection. He wants a new unit, a new beginning, and is about to set off on his long-awaited transfer, which comes in the form of a secret location. A new beginning. Is that too much to ask for? Trae didn't think so, and despite that this move was his last opportunity, as he had been moved several times previously, he eagerly sets off on his next assignment. That is until he meets Octavius, and wherever Octavius goes, chaos is sure to follow. Island heat: Deep Water Octopus highlights a society at its best, and its worst. Octavius is Trae's nemesis in more ways than one, and uses his manipulative ways to control those around him. Only Trae is able to see through Octavius's ways, or is it more of a case that the others are complacent in the way they enable Octavius's behaviour? Follow Trae as his once in a lifetime opportunity, turns into his worst nightmare, or is it really the new beginning he was looking for.
Book Synopsis Ancient African Christianity by : David E. Wilhite
Download or read book Ancient African Christianity written by David E. Wilhite and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-14 with total page 422 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Christianity spread across North Africa early, and it remained there as a powerful force much longer than anticipated. While this African form of Christianity largely shared the Latin language and Roman culture of the wider empire, it also represented a unique tradition that was shaped by its context. Ancient African Christianity attempts to tell the story of Christianity in Africa from its inception to its eventual disappearance. Well-known writers such as Tertullian, Cyprian, and Augustine are studied in light of their African identity, and this tradition is explored in all its various expressions. This book is ideal for all students of African Christianity and also a key introduction for anyone wanting to know more about the history, religion, and philosophy of these early influential Christians whose impact has extended far beyond the African landscape.

Download or read book Celestial Inclinations written by Anne-Marie Lewis and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2023 with total page 561 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Celestial Inclinations: A Life of Augustus provides a new perspective on the life and career of the first Roman emperor Augustus (63 B.C.-A.D. 14) and presents the case that Augustus used his knowledge of the celestial sphere in various ways to confirm for himself and convey to others that the heavens supported his activities on earth and his inevitable greatness. The book is based on fresh assessments of relevant ancient historical, literary, astronomical, astrological, and artistic sources for the years prior to and during the life of Augustus. The book combines these sources with astronomical sky maps and astrological diagrams to offer fresh interpretations of critical events in the life of Augustus at a time when the celestial sphere had come to play an important cultural and political role. Topics include the identification of the celestial object that appeared at the ludi in honor of Caesar in 44 B.C.; the Battle of Actium; the iconography of the Tellus Relief Panel on the Ara Pacis Augustae; the Ludi Saeculares; Augustus' major building projects in Rome; and Augustus' interactions with major figures of the period such as Cicero, Caesar, Agrippa, and Antonius"--

Book Synopsis Christianity and the Roman Empire by : Ralph Martin Novak
Download or read book Christianity and the Roman Empire written by Ralph Martin Novak and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2001-02-01 with total page 351 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The rise of Christianity during the first four centuries of the common era was the pivotal development in Western history and profoundly influenced the later direction of all world history. Yet, for all that has been written on early Christian history, the primary sources for this history are widely scattered, difficult to find, and generally unknown to lay persons and to historians not specially trained in the field. In Christianity and the Roman Empire Ralph Novak interweaves these primary sources with a narrative text and constructs a single continuous account of these crucial centuries. The primary sources are selected to emphasize the manner in which the government and the people of the Roman Empire perceived Christians socially and politically; the ways in which these perceptions influenced the treatment of Christians within the Roman Empire; and the manner in which Christians established their political and religious dominance of the Roman Empire after Constantine the Great came to power in the early fourth century CE. Ralph Martin Novak holds a Masters Degree in Roman History from the University of Chicago. For: Undergraduates; seminarians; general audiences
