In On the Afterlife: You Will Get There from Here, author G. V. Loewen presents a new, fascinating model of the concepts of the afterlife, from early human societies to our own. Based on four "types," this theory stands apart from any kind of personal evaluation or judgment, whether or not the reader believes in the afterlife - either in the form of a return to life in this world, or a continuation of life in some other realm - or not. A fifth "type" is designated by the concept of "nothingness," an integral element of understanding what happens when we die. Beginning with a discourse on how we remember and memorialize life in death, and ending with a chapter on ethics, On the Afterlife: You Will Get There from Here demonstrates how the obligation is on us as human beings to make our lives worth dying for. This intriguing book will change the way you think of the afterlife. About the Author: G. V. Loewen is professor of the sociology of religion at The University of Saskatchewan, in Saskatoon, Canada. The author of twelve scholarly books, he is currently writing about people's personal experiences of art.

In today's world, it can be difficult to maintain your faith. Those seeking a greater understanding of the Bible have numerous excellent theological commentaries available to them, but due to volume and depth, many of these are out of reach of laypeople. Others lose contact with the Bible, because it no longer seems relevant to life. They use a superficial knowledge of science and evolution to exclude God and faith from their experiences.

The abandonment of loyalty may be applied to many different issues in life. Here are four abandonments of many:
The abandonment of the living God
The abandonment of marriage between husband and wife
The abandonment of raising one's children in the ways of Jesus' Word
The abandonment of Jesus and the Holy Spirit for the American lifestyle and culture

God's Word says in Hosea 6:4 and 6, "What shall I do with you, O Ephraim? What shall I do with you, O Judah? For your loyalty is like a morning cloud And like the dew which goes away early," and, "For I delight in loyalty rather than sacrifice, And in the knowledge of God rather than burnt offerings" (NASB).

God destroyed disobedient people in the Old Testament, some of whom were His chosen people.

Jesus says in the New Testament, in Luke 6:46, "Why do you call Me, 'Lord, Lord, ' and do not do what I say?" (NASB). Hebrews 13:8 says, "Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever" (NASB).

Jesus will destroy disobedient Christians in the end. Who are His chosen people? Do not kid yourself into thinking that because you are a Christian, you are secure, if you are disobeying Jesus' commands.

"The Layman's Commentary: Volume 4-Books of the Major and Minor Prophets "presents a passage by passage explanation of the seventeen books of the Bible, known as the Prophets. In this fourth volume, author John Devine covers the period from the division of the United Kingdom of Israel to the end of the Monarchy and the Return of the Remnant from exile in Babylon. He explains God's continued self-revelation and plan for a relationship with humankind in his dealings with the nation of Israel. He considers the conflict and consequences of the desire of the individual to be independent from God. Further understanding of God's moral standard, which has been the backbone of Western society, is given. Devine also lays out the basis for a full and rewarding relationship with God.

"The fourth book in The Layman's Commentary series, Volume 4-Books of the Major and Minor" Prophets shows that the prophetic messages are still valid today because God's character has not changed - nor has the frailty of human nature. People look for an anointed One who will come and put all things right. Predicted by most of the prophets he is seen as the 'Hope of Israel', a prophet, priest and king who will include all nations of the earth in his eternal kingdom.

The Layman's Commentary: Volume 5-Books of the Gospels presents a passage-by-passage explanation of the four books of the Bible, known as the Gospels. In this fifth volume, author John Devine covers the biblical records of the life and teaching of Jesus Christ. In a coordinated approach to the four accounts he emphasises the significance of the claims that confirm Jesus as the Son of God and means of securing eternal life for those who recognise him as Savior and Lord. The evidence shows that Jesus is the most relevant person in history and why it is vital for each individual to make an informed decision about him. From personal experience Devine lays out the basis for a full and rewarding relationship with God. Study aids on prophecies, parables, miracles, healings and harmony of the Gospels are also provided.

I asked in Volume One of the series "This World's War on Fathers and Family," Is she crazy or demon possessed? With the mounting number of incidents where women have harmed or even killed their own male children, spouses or significant others, I think that we can now see that there is more going on than a little agitation. What is ultimately inside of any woman that would blatantly deny the scriptures has come to a place where it wants to be out in the open AND accepted by all. What is really going on? The truth here is that there is no such thing as a woman who is not submitted to "Something." The real question is "What" is she submitted to. The answer goes all the way back to the Garden of Eden. These are not "Women." They are something different completely. "Jezebel Rising" is a study of just what drives our sisters to this place and how it fits within the context of scripture.

Ruth: Gleaning the Fallen Sparks illuminates the biblical story about a Moabite widow of a Bethlehemite, who became a righteous convert inspired by her mother-in-law Naomi. Her name was Ruth and her story has the ability to teach us so much about the laws concerning relationships, levirate marriage, true kindness, redemption and gleaning from the fields both literally and spiritually. She married her older kinsman, Boaz, in order to preserve her deceased husband's legacy and became the mother of Oved, the grandfather of King David. But there is more to Ruth's story waiting to be discovered below the surface. In these fascinating and utterly enthralling pages, the story of Ruth is dissected in a way that it never has been before. Through intensive analysis and chassidic insight, Rebbetzin Chana Bracha Siegelbaum illuminates the book of Ruth and enlivens it in a manner that's accessible to all readers. Ruth, the mother of Royalty, is the perfect role-model and inspiration for women who aspire to walk in her path of righteousness and make a difference in the world. Through this thorough analysis, Rebbetzin Siegelbaum shows us Ruth, the woman and the righteous convert, in a totally new way that is truly inspirational. Praise for Ruth: Gleaning the Fallen Sparks: "Rebbetzin Siegelbaum's inspiring and thoroughly enjoyable book Ruth: Gleaning the Fallen Sparks, exemplifies a deep, comprehensible and refreshing insight on the Book of Ruth. It not only grants special attention to its women-oriented aspects, but gives the reader an exhilarating view of the subject from the angles of the Oral Torah and Kabbalah as well." - Rabbi Lazer Brody "The immense effort invested to explain and clarify Megillat Ruth is evident in this important book. The book is based on the teachings of our sages in the way of Chassidut. It is certainly extremely beneficial to learn and study this book in depth. It is a great merit to disseminate Torah and to understand the depths of the concealed matters of the Torah." - Rabbi Ben Tzion Rabinowitz of Biala

This book is one of a series of Bible study helps designed to provide a systematic set of literature for any serious student. The basic (no computer language pun intended) concept of this system involves the word Exegesis. That word means the Elucidation of the Truth (to read out the Truth). It is defined as: Exegesis: is the Correct Application of sound Hermeneutical Principles to the Original text of Scripture in order to Declare its intended meaning. This definition opens the door of systematic Bible study to subjects that include but is not limited to: Hermeneutics; Biblical Introduction; Study of the original Languages of the Scripture which include Greek, Hebrew, and Aramaic along with Tectual Criticism of such texts; Homiletics; Systematic Theology; and Christian Apologetics. This has been my writing/teaching aim for the past 40+ years.
