Download or read book How to Overcome Life s Endless Trials written by Ray Comfort and published by Destiny Image Publishers. This book was released on 2020-09-01 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Diamonds, gold, and precious pearls don't lie on the earth's surface. We have to search for them. And so it is with the precious gems of the Bible. We have to dig for them. They have been hidden from the eyes those who fail to "search the Scriptures." The life of Joseph in particular is filled with enigmatic meaning and biblical types that are easily missed by a superficial reading of the wonderful story. From his initial strange dreams, to the continual attempts to seduce him by Potiphar's unfaithful wife, to being thrown in jail as an accused sexual predator, to his divinely assisted interpretations of the bizarre dreams of the butler, the baker, and Pharaoh-all carry amazing truths that will comfort, encourage, and thrill the godly soul. And how we need comfort, because almost every day has a fresh curveball-the unexpected job loss, bills that come from nowhere, sickness, the neighbor's barking dog, and the car that breaks down. It seems that the whole world has conspired to make our short life miserable. And it certainly would be, if we missed the great lessons from a young man whose life was as colorful as his famous coat.

Download or read book The Solution to an Injustice in Trials written by Sinclair Banks and published by Sinclair Banks. This book was released on 2019-03-01 with total page 690 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This 664 page law and logic book contains the most comprehensive and detailed description of the composition of argument ad hominem ever published, revealing this form of argument to be a far broader fallacy than was previously known. Like perjury, argument ad hominem can deceive juries and cause unjust trial verdicts. There is, fortunately, already a criminal law against perjury, but, unfortunately, there is currently no law that expressly prohibits argument ad hominem in trials. The book includes the text of a proposed criminal law that expressly prohibits argument ad hominem in trials, and shows the necessity of such a law to counter effectively this quite common form of injustice in jury trials.

Download or read book Spiritual Truths for Overcoming Adversity written by Greg Hinnant and published by Gatekeeper Press. This book was released on 2024-05-05 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jesus said, “Tribulation or persecution arises because of the word” (Matthew 13:21, NKJV). This implies, while everyone has troubles, committed Christians have them for different reasons. “Because of the word” means we are learning God’s Word, living it, and spreading its saving light. “Christian difficulties” are adversities Satan sends to destroy our faith and usefulness to God. Yet God permits them to build Christian character—if we respond properly. Spiritual Truths for Overcoming Adversity explores the deep ministry of adversity, revealing God’s loving guidance and wise purposes in all our difficulties. Its biblical insights illuminate God’s path through every shadowy valley and help us stop fighting and start cooperating with God, so He can mature our faith, draw us nearer, and use us more fruitfully. Search this Word-light, and let it search you. Obey it, and it will change you. Share it, so it can shine through you! Book Review 1: "Words fail me to express how much the Lord spoke to me through this book . . . and comforted me and strengthened me and guided me to withstand my sufferings and adversities." -- Evangeline Spurgeon, India Book Review 2: "Using Scriptures, this book will teach you how to understand and overcome your spiritual battles. This book is full of Godly wisdom. I praise God for . . . using it to open my heart and mind to know how to overcome." -- E. Brennan

Download or read book The Nuremberg Trials International Criminal Law Since 1945 written by Herbert R. Reginbogin and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2011-11-30 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 60 years after the trials of the main German war criminals, the articles in this book attempt to assess the Nuremberg Trials from a historical and legal point of view, and to illustrate connections, contradictions and consequences. In view of constantly reoccurring reports of mass crimes from all over the world, we have only reached the halfway point in the quest for an effective system of international criminal justice. With the legacy of Nuremberg in mind, this volume is a contribution to the search for answers to questions of how the law can be applied effectively and those committing crimes against humanity be brought to justice for their actions.
Download or read book The Black Church Studies Reader written by Alton B. Pollard and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-04-29 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Black Church Studies Reader addresses the depth and breadth of Black theological studies, from Biblical studies and ethics to homiletics and pastoral care. The book examines salient themes of social and religious significance such as gender, sexuality, race, social class, health care, and public policy. While the volume centers around African American experiences and studies, it also attends to broader African continental and Diasporan religious contexts. The contributors reflect an interdisciplinary blend of Black Church Studies scholars and practitioners from across the country. The text seeks to address the following fundamental questions: What constitutes Black Church Studies as a discipline or field of study? What is the significance of Black Church Studies for theological education? What is the relationship between Black Church Studies and the broader academic study of Black religions? What is the relationship between Black Church Studies and local congregations (as well as other faith-based entities)? The book's search for the answers to these questions is compelling and illuminating.
Download or read book Guiding Spirits Veritas written by Michele L. Sayre and published by Michele L Sayre. This book was released on 2023-06-17 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: GUIDING SPIRITS (VERITAS) . . . The beauty of poetry is that we try to express with the fewest words possible the entirety of life and our natures and what it is like for us to live upon this planet. Words become a song that we sing out into the universe, trying to reach out to like-minded souls. It is our nature to express ourselves and share who we are with the cosmos. There’s a certain fearlessness attached to a poem when it’s presented to the world. There’s always that one iota of fear where the poet feels that they are alone in their views and someone else will not get them at their most basic level of humanity. Poetry is saying, “Here I am universe. Take me as I am. I hope you love me, but, if that cannot happen, I will be satisfied if you just don’t ignore me.” To be heard is to matter, and that is all any of us want – to fulfill the wish that our lives matter. That what we think and feel and hope matters to someone other than ourselves. This book is an exploration and experiencing of the world around us through the poet’s eyes when she was much younger than she is now. Through any age, we all experience the same emotions, desires, wants, dreams, and just a heart-felt wish that we matter to someone in this universe – even if it’s ourselves. POETRY EXCERPT FROM THE BOOK: Sweet Music Like the truest violin, my heart sings in me. It quivers and vibrates with my love for thee. It shivers and shakes and begins anew. This pulse in my heart, it sings just for you. An enchanting melody that follows me ‘round; not a more haunting melody can ever be found. You are that violin, and I am your bow; Stroking you, touching you, loving you so. The hardness, the softness, the shimmering air – fills with sweet music because I’m with you there. It resonates and rings with the love we’ve found. My world is just music; it rings with our sound. I know our last note will never be played, because I know this: true love never fades.
