Download or read book The Doleful Creatures of Outer Darkness written by Tina M. Moore and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2023-05-22 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Perhaps you or someone you know exhibits patterns of instability in a particular aspect of life. This fluctuation may show up as erratic mood changes, excessive fears or worries, extreme feelings of guilt, bouts of depression, double-mindedness, addictive behaviors, sexual bondage, etc. In the New Testament, Paul teaches us that our struggle is not against flesh-and-blood enemies, but against evil rulers and authorities of the unseen world, against mighty powers in this dark world, and against evil spirits in the heavenly places. The evil spirits that Paul referred to here are synonymous with the “wild beasts” that tempted Jesus in the wilderness for forty days. As a matter of fact, they are the same spirits that pressure us today, compelling us to the bitter realm of what the Bible refers to as outer darkness. The Old Testament reveals that these spirits embodied animals, the metaphorical doleful creatures mentioned in the book of Isaiah and throughout the entire Bible. However, God’s desire is to shine a light on these irritants so that we can cast them out and be made whole again. After all, Paul encouraged us to be openly aware of Satan’s devices, lest he should gain an advantage over us. The revelation knowledge you receive from this book will give you the insight you need to recover the parts of your life you’ve once lost or handed over to the enemy.
Download or read book Three Ugly Sisters written by C. E. Hastie and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2022-10-18 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For over thirty years C. E. Hastie has struggled with these three conditions: Covetousness, Jealousy, and Envy. She eventually realized that was partly because they are so closely related and interconnected. They blend one into another, and this makes them difficult to identify and deal with. She knew and experienced the spiritual symptoms but needed a clearer diagnosis to gain a better understanding of each one. It was also noticeable that other Christians were quite reluctant to admit to having problems in these areas, which made them hard to discuss. This is understandable; they are ugly in nature, especially envy. The overall aim of this book is to give a working definition of each “sister” with some ideas for combatting these conditions using accounts and verses from the Bible. There is a final section on the evil eye, which, though related to the other three, is not quite the same. The author still struggles with these three issues but believes that with the Lord’s help she and the reader can make progress together.

Download or read book The Bible in the Hospital written by Rev. Doug Allen and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2008-04-16 with total page 133 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The minister in the hospital setting can build relationships with patients faster than any other member of the health care team. Patients who have only a brief time with the minister may feel like he is a long-time friend to them. In some case they may view him as a life-long friend. I call this fast bonding the temporal life long relationship. The reason behind this is that the patient sees the minister in the hospital as a link in the life long chain of ministers they have known and loved. Use this advantage without taking advantage of the patient. This book is written to minister to those who minister to others. It is more of a ready reference than a book to be read cover-to-cover in a sitting. Take advantage of what you need for the moment. The rest of the book will have use at a latter time.
