If you love Jesus but distrust religion there is a reason. The
reason you feel that way is Jesus came to bring the Light and the
Word to lead mankind out of the darkness. You are meant to live in
communication with the Father through the Holy Spirit every day of
your life. Mankind was created to be a spititual being within a
human body. We are being called to an awakening of a New Age fo God
that wants us to start living within the spirit as it was intended.
Man took the Word and subverted Jesus' intent and created a
religion. The seeds of deceit have mislead generations to follow
doctrines that are an abomination to the Father. Mans logic and
Pagan beliefs have been infiltrated into the churces and God wants
you to see the truth. Learn how to hear and follow the guidance of
the Holy Spirit. You can discern the truth for yourself and begin
to live in the New Age of true worship. If you seek the truth the
Father of us all will stretch forth his hand to lead you, to heal,
and to give us signs and wonders. He will bring miracles back to
the world ( Acts 4:30). When the Holy Spirit moves, the miracles
worked by the Son will be to glorify the Father (Acts 3:13). Isn't
it time to start living a miraclous life instead of being at the
mercy of a world that could care less about you. The world seeks to
keep you distracted but you can begin to live a life of purpose.
People have not been taught the truth about worship. Instead they
have given you words without intent and a bunch of manmade rules
and regulations. You can learn to live in His glory and grace. Put
aside the deceits of the world and start seeking the truth for
yourself. This book holds the keys to opening your eyes, your heart
and how to control the mind. Everyone is struggling, searching and
wondering what is missing. Why is this life so difficult? The
Doctor cannot write a prescription for what is troubling people.
Give me a chance to show you an alternative to the madness of the
world. God wants to restore faith to His children. The love of the
Father is reaching out to His children. Isn't it time to come back
to the truth? Answer the quickening in your spirit and take a step
closer to the truth.
On February 18, 2009 at 8.15 pm, Lorenzo Bouchard sent to honorable
court elected members a message under the title: BAN ISLAM (
PETITION ON GOOGLE), as it is in capital letters. He addressed it:
TO: THE WORLD COURT. He describes the message as phase 1, in
controlling Islam. For those who are concerned "about "Slavery,
especially of Women in our modern World" and asked politely the
members " please read the following item." Now you know the sender
and the subject matter and the receivers of the petition are: those
who are interested in human values and "Universal Love" which in
his belief are "THE WORLD COURT" to judge his request. The
undersigned are representing International petitioners. Their
request is to "ban on the organization called Islam." The author
responded to this petition published under the title "Banning
Islam: A Petition of Ingnorance." It is good to read. Islam
however, is the most ignored and misunderstood faith in the West,
until recent years. The author, also a poet, he is a former
professor of sociology authored more than 140 books available for
readers in both Arabic and English, and his works are translated
into dozens of other languages. Dr. Yahya, an Arab American scholar
resides in Michigan, USA, have four children and 10 grandchildren.
Its publication now in pamphlet form is due to its delivery at
Harper's Ferry, W. Va., on Decoration day, 1881, and to the fact
that the proceeds from the sale of it are to be used toward the
endowment of a John Brown Professorship in Storer College, Harper's
Ferry-an institution mainly devoted to the education of colored
youth. That such an address could be delivered at such a place, at
such a time, is strikingly significant, and illustrates the rapid,
vast and wonderful changes through which the American people have
been passing since 1859. Twenty years ago Frederick Douglass and
others were mobbed in the city of Boston, and. driven from Tremont
Temple for uttering sentiments concerning. John Brown similar to
those contained in this address. Yet now he goes freely to the very
spot where John Brown committed the offense which caused all
Virginia to clamor for his life, and without reserve or
qualification, commends him as a hero and martyr in the cause of
liberty.
Secularism, Theology and Islam offers a uniquely theological
analysis of the historic Danish cartoon crisis of 2005-2006, in
which the publication of twelve images of the Prophet Muhammad in
the Danish newspaper Jyllands-Posten ignited violent global
protests. The crisis represents a politically, culturally, and
religiously important event of the early 21st century, and Jennifer
Veninga explores the important question of why the cartoons were
published in Denmark when they were and why this matters to the
larger global community. The book outlines three main
interpretations of the affair as they were framed by international
news media: as an issue exclusively about freedom of speech, as
related to a 'clash of civilizations', or exclusively as a matter
of international politics. Whilst these are important to note, the
author argues that the crisis was far more complex than any of
these interpretations suggest, and argues that an alternative
methodology can be found in philosopher Charles Taylor's concept of
the 'social imaginary', which refers to the shared norms,
expectations, images and narratives of a community or nation that
inform many of its shared practices. Describing the Danish social
imaginary as a paradox of Christianity and secularism, Veninga
explains why the new presence of Islam has been perceived as such a
threat to Danish identity. The author also maintains that despite
tendencies toward exclusion, the Danish imaginary also supports a
move toward authentic religious pluralism. Understanding the Danish
cartoon crisis is important for any community struggling with new
religious diversity, especially those with largely secular
identities. Furthermore, the method used to examine the crisis
provides a theological analytical framework applicable to a wide
variety of contemporary social and political movements and issues.
Much of the confusion is caused by the Chinese government, which
deceives journalists and foreign missionaries with promises of
religious freedom that are never kept.
The truth is, the house churches of China are growing at a
phenomenal rate. Never in the history of the world have so many
people in such a short time left one belief system for another
without a hostile revolution. Lives in China are being transformed
daily by the gospel of Jesus Christ and the display of His
miraculous power.
The Underground Church demystifies the Chinese house church
movement, with real-life examples and personal testimonies from
Chinese Christians. The movement's unique characteristics both good
and bad are addressed, as well as how they have led to the church's
astonishing growth.

Rutilio Grande, SJ, was the first Jesuit to be assassinated in El
Salvador. He was killed on March 12, 1977, for having done the
works that Jesus commands with regard to one's neighbor as a priest
in the Roman Catholic Church. This volume of his writings and
homilies illustrates how he applied the social and ecclesial
teachings of the Second Vatican Council (1962-1965) in his ministry
with the poor and marginalized of El Salvador. His use of the
social sciences to understand the problems in his context, his
prophetic denunciation of power and wealth, and his ministry to
empower laypeople to lead their faith communities all speak to the
Holy Spirit working through the courage of a true servant leader.
