Everyday countless numbers of believers experience crisis that tests their faith. Once thrust into the storm, the sifting begins, and we must make a choice to stand on truth. To complicate the matter, we may respond in sin and continue in error by pointing the blame on others. After our faith falters through a trial, we may abandon it and suffer the stigma of what the Apostle Paul called, "a shipwrecked faith." Not understanding why this happens to loyal believers, who once felt so close to God, we turn away from our faith. Like spiritual nomads, we leave the congregation, fleeing for refuge in a desert of our own making. What we may not comprehend, or appreciate is that God's grace sustains us during our season of separation. This book helps the reader to regain stability during a stretch in the desert and see it as an opportunity for refining and redefining our faith. Alternatively, faith failure occurs when a believer naively misplaces faith to truth in a system of religious works, or persons and suffers when they do not uphold the teachings of Jesus. When we walk from false religious teachings, associates label us as failures and reject us. Broken hearted and disillusioned by our situation, we give up our religion and turn our back on everything we once believed in. We may spend years hiding in the desert making little progress in our faith, until we realize that we are spiritually thirsty. We long for God's love and wish someone would help us find the way to restore our faith. Our cry is like the title of this book, "Help Me I'm a Religious Wreck and You Can Find Me in the Desert" and here it is with care, placed into your hands, from one who understands the cy.
The Gospel Train left the station long, long ago filled with believers traveling on a straight, resolute track toward an eternal, spiritual paradise. But along the way, different cars of believers were switched off the main track and are now traveling in a somewhat different direction. Even though they are now following many different sets of rails, they all believe they are on the only true path that will take them to their desired destination. This book reveals the ways in which different religions deviated from a common trunk into contrary, discordant branches that are now essentially at war with one another. The book focuses on what Christian Bibles actually say instead of what believers are told they say. It gives an accurate account of religious history from verifiable documents that are both ancient and up-to-date records from many different sources. The most tantalizing revelation is the nature of God as stated directly from Christian Bibles. Readers are encouraged to use their own Bibles to verify all references to scripture. Both chapter and verse are supplied for reference purposes. After reading this book, you will never again feel exactly the same way about your religion.
Messages from God All messages in this book are from God, revealed by the Holy Spirit to the author. All scripture is taken from the King James Version of the Holy Bible. "I make known to you, brothren, that the Gospel which was preached by me, is not after man, for I neither received it of man, neither, was I taught it. but by the revelation of Jesus Christ." (Galatians 1:11, 12) Jesus said, "The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because He hath anointed me to preach the Gospel to the poor." (Luke 4:18) "God has sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised" (Isaiah 61:1-2) Reverend A. L. Dorrough Messages from God

One of the world's leading spiritual teachers returns with an inspiring and provocative message with solutions to our planetary crises, offering effective steps to change the world and integrate all levels of our Being. Religion is psychological entrapment promoting the controlled behavior of the herd civilization. Institutionalized organized religion is the cause of enslavement, violence, prejudice, hatred, classism, and war. False religious institutions created god in their own personal image and after the likeness of their own mind for control and money. Every religious holy book has been altered, dissected, rewritten, and censored to appear as the word of God, and all the gods of religious holy books are controlled by fundamentalists. Organized religion is a serious threat to the human race and a mental illness that afflicts over 80% of the world's population. It has nothing to do with spirituality and is no more than a collection of unholy lies. The spiritual terrorism of religion frowns upon free will, dispises questions, prohibits doubt, and survives on blind faith. Eternal life with God is only promised to the obedient religious-slaves who unconditionally follow rigid religious belief structures. This mythology was created based on division, not unity. Control is the essence of evil. The easiest way to control humanity is through fear, which is why the religious Elite created gods of intimidation and fear; to control others and solicit money. "The Awakening of Global Consciousness is a must read for the millions who've read Jawara's earlier classic books and a great beginning for those unfamiliar with his great works questioning the validity of the world's three major religions."
It is my first so perhaps a little rough around the edges, A scientifically religious and spiritual approach to our reality and how our perspective and thoughts create the environments of our social and physical humanity.including my thesis on the evolution of the big bang and life's energy cycles through eternity.To change your perspective is to change your life. The value of having a positive and progressive one is that the journey becomes more joyful and compassionate along the way. Humanity creates the mental and physical environments that we all collectively coexist in thus we must individually but collectively create a proper perspective and attitude before we can effectively make change in a constantly positive and beneficial direction. The key to happiness and proper attitude is our personal perspective, This only you can adjust. Compassion shown to another person is reflected back at you through karma and society. The real battle is with ourselves. When we can admit our own faults, we can solve the issues that affect our destination effectively and not arrogantly. By understanding the nature of matter and creation we can logically understand the connection between things that exist in our environment. From this knowledge of a continuous connection we can solve the problems of humanity, with Compassion, Physics, Logic, Mathematics, Philosophy, Metaphysics, and Theology in hand. We can do this as well as keeping our Equal rights to believe in our individual Religions. Evolution and Ecology are constantly advancing our practical applications in science and health. We have and will progress relevantly to the speed at which we can discover ourselves. Beneficial steps towards the progress of humanity and our future are continuously being made. But at times it seems the right hand does not keep the left up to date. This may, or may not be an intentional lack of control. But, It is thoughtless, and slows humanities' progress no matter the cause. We should all work as a team and pass the ball around, so that everyone can enjoy the game. If you know what I mean.
... is a collection of Christian poetry. This book shares my belief and faith in God, in prayer and in praise. I was a soul struggling for sanity. Thinking my life defeated, to Him - God - I wholly retreated. He enabled me to weather the storm. I hope my poetry will lift the spirit of readers in bleak hours, and encourage them to enjoy the beauty of this great world, and accept God's invitation to everlasting life. I would like to relate that God is always there to steer a fate if one in patience, in faith, in prayer -- wait. Ruby Dell Ross, Author
I wonder what the Samaritan woman who met Jesus at Jacob's Well was like. What were the circumstances that led to her being there, drawing water in the heat of the day? The New Testament does not give us much background on the people involved in some of the familiar stories. This book brings those characters to life by letting the reader imagine what their life might have been like. Consider Joseph as a man wondering how he got himself into a situation where he and his pregnant wife were traveling to Bethlehem. What happened at the birth of Jesus from the perspective of another guest in the Inn? Did the jailer in Philippi have a son? If he did, how might he have viewed the events that happened while Paul was a prisoner? A Centurion had a servant who was ill. What was the relationship between the Centurion and the servant? How did the Centurion happen to get sent to Galilee? These stories take New Testament stories as a starting place and consider a different possibility. They will challenge you to think again about the people who might have met Jesus in person.

This book is comprised of a compendium of motivational essays that are intended to stimulate the mind and stir the heart toward sensing the magnificence of the Almighty Lord, Allah (Glory be to Him, the Most High), as also to experience the beauty and wisdom of Islam, and to imbibe the principles and precepts of life taught by Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him). The style of these discourses is generally intended to educate both Muslims and non-Muslims on the spirit and values of Islam, and on recognizing humanity and human attributes within oneself, as well as to share Islamic ethics, morality, philosophies, and principles so as to promote the understanding of Islam and to illuminate the purpose of life. Each essay is motivated by several particularly insightful verses from the Qur'an and traditions and sayings of the Prophet, which in themselves are enlightening to read and reflect upon.

God, what's it all about? How often have you heard these exact words? How many people ask that question? What is it that they are asking? Why are they asking such a question of God? When do they ask these questions? Most importantly, how do we get our answers to what it is all about? These answers, just like all of the answers in the universe, come from God's will. This is why we always confirm with God, "God, your will, not mine be done " God loves us more than we could ever understand. That's why deep in our soul, we know God's will will be the driving force for our success here on Earth, but most importantly in heaven. With God's help, you will create an ongoing relationship with the Holy Spirit's message. Once you accept God's Word and you listen openly to it, you will only need to listen, and you will hear what God is saying to you. |
