From 1914 the Cruz family moved to Shanghai - it resonates with
today's conflicts and challenges of endless wars. And, it was truly
providential they had survived these many years As a historian in
his own right, is emerging as an author of alternative history.
Thus, an epic story on Moses of the Old Testament about the Exodus
of Israelites from Egypt into the Promise Land is being retold in
resemblance of this modern day narrative in The Eurasian
Gentile.

Every serious student of the Bible desires to understand the text,
discover the biblical principles, and apply the truths to his or
her life. This commentary is designed to help students, pastors,
and Bible teachers understand James and Jude in a simple manner.
Working from the popular New International Version (NIV), the
author provides helpful commentary on the text verse by verse. This
verse-by-verse commentary is different from others in two respects.
First, it is brief while some commentaries are unnecessarily wordy
and verbose. Second, it is Pentecostal in outlook. This implies
that we generally adhere to the doctrine of biblical inerrancy and
adopt a literalist approach to the interpretation of the Bible.
James and Jude are letters from James and Jude respectively, who
are half brothers of our Lord Jesus. The timeless truth that James
presents is that believers must harmonize their faith and action.
Our faith must be demonstrated in all situations of life-at home,
at work, in church, in the neighborhood. Jude writes to warn
believers about false teachers and their heresy. He calls on
believers to contend for the apostolic faith.
Each of us is brought into this world with an insatiable, often
misunderstood longing, a haunting of desire for something that is
beyond us. Mysteriously sensing our fractured incompleteness, A
Soul's Romancing: Experience the Holy exposes the source of our
shared inner desperation as the soul's expressive search for
unparalleled and consuming intimacy. A Soul's Romancing: Experience
the Holy offers insight into the mannerisms of the soul and offers
a much-needed language for the restless heart of humanity.
The Book of Revelation comes with a blessing to all who read it,
hear it and do what it says. The question is: How can we understand
it if is presented to us in the form of symbols?
Symbols can be understood after the prophecy has been fulfilled
and believers are encouraged when they look back in history and see
what the symbols represented. God uses symbols to keep what He has
planned a mystery before it takes place; that way neither man nor
Satan can compromise it.
Revelation teaches us that God blesses overcomers, warns of
judgment and tells us what will happen to those who do not
listen.
In The Book of Revelation Satan uses Paganism (symbolized by the
Dragon); The Antichrist (symbolized by the Beast) and False
Doctrine (symbolized by the False Prophet) to stop the truth of the
gospel.
The reader will learn from the Reformers what each of these
systems are: how they rose to power; how their power was taken away
and how they come on the scene again for a ? little season? before
the Second Coming of our Lord.
Growing up in the Midwest in the tumultuous 60s and 70s, the
author witnessed a foundational shift in American love and sex.
While traditional families showed us daily trials with characters
on black and white TV sitcoms, the country swirled with the
confusion of rapidly changing social norms. Relationships became
more experimental, and even those rooted in love for God were
caught up in trying to make this new life fit with what God defines
for us in the Bible.
For more than twenty years she hid her own life of substance
abuse, promiscuity, and same-sex relationships from family,
friends, and colleagues. She married, watched her marriage
disintegrate, and then despaired. As she finally found her
relationship with God, she found both the joy and the peace she had
been seeking. In this quest to share love as God intends and to
know family as he designed, she transparently offers her story so
others struggling with similar life decisions may find their
way.
"For a man's ways are in full view of the Lord - He examines all
his paths." (Proverbs 5:21)
This book is an autobiographical account of how a six-year-old girl
was diagnosed with terminal cancer and how her father coped with
the shock and trauma of it all. The illness, the death, and the
fathomless depths of anguish that followed are not sidestepped in
this volume, but are described as accurately as author Fred G.
Womack was capable of doing. As the great trial got underway,
Womack had a good idea of what he might expect of people in the
face of the challenges before them. But in all honesty, he did not
know what he might expect of God. Of course, he knew that God had
done some extraordinary things for people in the Bible who found
themselves in various predicaments. All the same, he had no
assurance that God would provide any comparable help to his
daughter and family in their painful plight. At this time, Fred
Womack's Christianity was much like that of a hypothesis that had
never been tested. Be that as it may, early in the illness it
became clear that the worst thing that had ever happened to his
family would be the occasion for spiritual revelations that would
amaze and enthrall himself and his ill daughter to the degree that
they would ameliorate the anguish being felt?and occasionally fully
compensate the emotional suffering that was so devastating. After
the daughter's death, God continued to bring to the father's
attention many inexplicable spiritual manifestations, all of which
correlated in some way with the spiritual happenings that took
place during his daughter's illness.
