Download or read book Zakai written by Eve Langlais and published by Eve Langlais. This book was released on 2023-06-21 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I found more than religion in an angel’s kiss. My studies in theology didn’t prepare me to deal with angels from outer space. They’re real. They fly. And in their elevated arrogance, they don’t think they need anyone’s help. So, imagine my surprise when the shy but hunky Zakai asks for my assistance in locating Noah’s ark. Apparently, it’s not just a religious myth. The massive ship did exist, and it looks like humanity might need it if they’re going to survive an incoming invasion. As we work to uncover the mystery, we’re stymied by opposing forces doing everything they can to stop us. I’ll admit, I never thought I’d end up fighting demons, just like I never expected to fall in love with an angel. But when given a choice, will he choose me or God? A celestial, alien romance.

Download or read book The Tomb written by Stephanie Landsem and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2015-03-17 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this captivating retelling of a classic biblical story, Jesus shocks the town of Bethany with Lazarus’s resurrection from the dead, leading Martha—a seemingly perfect woman trapped by the secrets of her past—to hope and a new life. Everyone in Bethany admires Martha—the perfect Jewish woman. She feeds and clothes her loved ones, looks after the family farm, and meticulously follows every precept of the Pharisees’ strict laws. But Martha is hiding a secret. At her sister’s marriage feast, she gave her heart and her innocence to a young musician who promised to return and marry her, but instead betrayed her love and abandoned her. Seven years later, only two people in Bethany know of Martha’s secret sin: her brother, Lazarus, and Simon, the righteous Pharisee to whom Martha is betrothed. When Lazarus falls ill, Martha is faced with a choice: send for Jesus to save her dying brother—risking the wrath of Simon who threatens to betray her—or deny Jesus’ healing power and remain trapped in her tomb of secrecy and lies. Meanwhile, on the shores of Galilee, Isa roams the wilderness, tortured by demons and knowing only that someone is waiting for him. When he is healed by Jesus, he finds that seven years have passed since his descent into madness. Isa journeys home to Bethany only to find he is too late to win back Martha’s love. When Martha risks all to heal Lazarus, will Jesus arrive in time, or will he—like Isa—come too late?
Book Synopsis Theological Stains by : Assaf Shelleg
Download or read book Theological Stains written by Assaf Shelleg and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2020 with total page 481 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Theological Stains traces the growth of art music in Israel from the mid twentieth century to the turn of the twenty-first. In a riveting and provocative account, Assaf Shelleg explores the theological grammar of Zionism and its impact on the art music written by emigrant and native composers grappling with biblical redemptive promises and diasporic patrimonies. Unveiling the network that bred territorial nationalism and Hebrew culture, Shelleg shows how this mechanism infiltrated composers' work as much as it triggered less desirable responses from composers who sought to realize to the non-territorial Diasporic options Zionism has renounced. In the process compositional aesthetics gets stained by the state's nationalization of the theological, by diasporism that refuses redemption, and by Jewish musical traditions that permeated inaudibly to compositions written throughout the second half of the twentieth century. Accompanying this rich and dramatic story are equivalent developments in modern Hebrew literature and poetry alongside vast and previously unstudied archival sources. The book is also lavishly illuminated with 135 music examples that render it an incisive guide to fundamental chapters in modern and late modern art music"--
Download or read book Windwalker written by H.G. Chambers and published by H.G. Chambers. This book was released on with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the heart of the ancient desert lies a secret. Not one concealing jewels, treasure, or even an ancient tomb, but an entire people, hidden for a thousand years among the stony buttes and mesas. For sixteen years, Kiva has grown up climbing those buttes, hunting poisonous lizards, and learning to fight with her two older brothers. But all of that is about to change. The Proving Ceremonies are around the corner, and with them comes the pressure to choose a profession befitting a female. But Kiva, an outspoken youth whose mouth lands her in trouble as often as not, has never been one for tradition. Her eyes are ever turned upward, hoping to glimpse one of the deadly four-winged raptors that scour the desert skies. It is upon their backs that the windwalkers ride, keeping watch over her people. But women are strictly forbidden from joining the windwalker sect. What's more, the flying predators are said to kill any female attempting to bond them. With stubborn determination, Kiva formulates a bold plan that is as likely to leave her exiled or dead, as it is to succeed. But this is only the beginning of the dangers she will face. When signs of an ancient enemy appear upon the plains, a threat arises that will soon bury them all in a tomb of sand and stone—unless she can stop it.

Book Synopsis Numerical Methods for Stochastic Partial Differential Equations with White Noise by : Zhongqiang Zhang
Download or read book Numerical Methods for Stochastic Partial Differential Equations with White Noise written by Zhongqiang Zhang and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-09-01 with total page 391 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book covers numerical methods for stochastic partial differential equations with white noise using the framework of Wong-Zakai approximation. The book begins with some motivational and background material in the introductory chapters and is divided into three parts. Part I covers numerical stochastic ordinary differential equations. Here the authors start with numerical methods for SDEs with delay using the Wong-Zakai approximation and finite difference in time. Part II covers temporal white noise. Here the authors consider SPDEs as PDEs driven by white noise, where discretization of white noise (Brownian motion) leads to PDEs with smooth noise, which can then be treated by numerical methods for PDEs. In this part, recursive algorithms based on Wiener chaos expansion and stochastic collocation methods are presented for linear stochastic advection-diffusion-reaction equations. In addition, stochastic Euler equations are exploited as an application of stochastic collocation methods, where a numerical comparison with other integration methods in random space is made. Part III covers spatial white noise. Here the authors discuss numerical methods for nonlinear elliptic equations as well as other equations with additive noise. Numerical methods for SPDEs with multiplicative noise are also discussed using the Wiener chaos expansion method. In addition, some SPDEs driven by non-Gaussian white noise are discussed and some model reduction methods (based on Wick-Malliavin calculus) are presented for generalized polynomial chaos expansion methods. Powerful techniques are provided for solving stochastic partial differential equations. This book can be considered as self-contained. Necessary background knowledge is presented in the appendices. Basic knowledge of probability theory and stochastic calculus is presented in Appendix A. In Appendix B some semi-analytical methods for SPDEs are presented. In Appendix C an introduction to Gauss quadrature is provided. In Appendix D, all the conclusions which are needed for proofs are presented, and in Appendix E a method to compute the convergence rate empirically is included. In addition, the authors provide a thorough review of the topics, both theoretical and computational exercises in the book with practical discussion of the effectiveness of the methods. Supporting Matlab files are made available to help illustrate some of the concepts further. Bibliographic notes are included at the end of each chapter. This book serves as a reference for graduate students and researchers in the mathematical sciences who would like to understand state-of-the-art numerical methods for stochastic partial differential equations with white noise.
Book Synopsis Grid-based Nonlinear Estimation and Its Applications by : Bin Jia
Download or read book Grid-based Nonlinear Estimation and Its Applications written by Bin Jia and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2019-04-25 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Grid-based Nonlinear Estimation and its Applications presents new Bayesian nonlinear estimation techniques developed in the last two decades. Grid-based estimation techniques are based on efficient and precise numerical integration rules to improve performance of the traditional Kalman filtering based estimation for nonlinear and uncertainty dynamic systems. The unscented Kalman filter, Gauss-Hermite quadrature filter, cubature Kalman filter, sparse-grid quadrature filter, and many other numerical grid-based filtering techniques have been introduced and compared in this book. Theoretical analysis and numerical simulations are provided to show the relationships and distinct features of different estimation techniques. To assist the exposition of the filtering concept, preliminary mathematical review is provided. In addition, rather than merely considering the single sensor estimation, multiple sensor estimation, including the centralized and decentralized estimation, is included. Different decentralized estimation strategies, including consensus, diffusion, and covariance intersection, are investigated. Diverse engineering applications, such as uncertainty propagation, target tracking, guidance, navigation, and control, are presented to illustrate the performance of different grid-based estimation techniques.
Book Synopsis Jonathan Edwards's Turn from the Classic-Reformed Tradition of Freedom of the Will by : Philip John Fisk
Download or read book Jonathan Edwards's Turn from the Classic-Reformed Tradition of Freedom of the Will written by Philip John Fisk and published by Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht. This book was released on 2016-07-11 with total page 442 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Philip J. Fisk offers a critical reappraisal of Jonathan Edwards's Freedom of Will, interpreting Edwards from within his own tradition, Reformed Orthodoxy (±1550-1750), avoiding the outdated paradigms of the conventional interpretation of Edwards and his tradition, a so-called deterministic, reconciliationist Calvinism, and demonstrating from primary sources, such as Harvard and Yale commencement theses and quaestiones, that Edwards departed ways with Reformed Orthodoxy's robust and highly nuanced view of freedom of will, contingency, and necessity.
Download or read book Aziel written by Eve Langlais and published by Eve Langlais. This book was released on 2023-05-09 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It took an angel to make me believe in love. As a woman of science, I am an unabashed, agnostic atheist—until I meet my first angel. Aziel, with big, beautiful wings, claims he’s here to stop humanity from being annihilated. Sounds impressive, but I have questions. Full of arrogance and demands, he wants access to my life’s work while blaming me for the coming apocalypse. It seems my innocuous signal seeking life beyond our galaxy succeeded. Someone heard my invitation, and now the world is in grave danger. At least according to Aziel. As I get to know him, I find myself reevaluating everything I thought I knew. More surprising than my sudden belief in religion, though, is my irrational love for an overbearing angel. But will he defy Heaven’s orders to save me?

Book Synopsis God is a Communicative Being by : William M. Schweitzer
Download or read book God is a Communicative Being written by William M. Schweitzer and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2012-03-29 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past half century, there has been a proliferation of scholarship on the great American theologian Jonathan Edwards. However, the vast majority of this output confines itself to the details of his work. With some welcome exceptions, the forest has often been missed for the trees. In this ground breaking study William Schweitzer presents a new reading of Edwards: He starts with the question what is distinctive in Edwards' theology? The answer comes in Edwards' insight into Trinitarian life. God is eternally communicative of his knowledge, love, and joy among the Three Persons of the Trinity, and this divine communicativeness was for Edwards the explanation for why God created the universe. More specifically, however, Edwards believed that God's communication carries with it the Trinitarian hallmark of “harmony.” This hallmark is not always east to discern, even for the regenerate. Edwards' lifelong project-as demonstrated by the common purpose of all three unfinished “Great Works”-was to interpret the harmony found in and among the several media of revelation.
