Download or read book More and More Veils Lifted from My Face written by Esther Okwata and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2010-03 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More and More Veils Lifted From My Face is more than just Esther's life experience. It will inspire and encourage you as a reader to walk with Jesus. You will also learn to persevere knowing that even amongst hardship, there is also happiness, but only if you receive Jesus Christ as your savior. For Esther, she thought that to be a good Christian was to be humble, carry the Bible and go to church every Sunday. But that was not enough. It was not until she realized God's amazing Grace through the way of salvation that she saw a different page in her life. She was redeemed, became a happy and hopeful person. She confesses that God lifted a veil from her face to know and see the hidden things that she had not known. She remained stagnant for a long time, trying to rely on people to help her stand and walk as a saved Christian, but it wasn't easy because they failed her. Yet another veil was lifted from her face, and she began to rely on God, not man. It is very interesting to know that our faces are covered by so many thin veils, that God Himself lifts for us to see what is happening in the spiritual world. The pivotal part in this book is the instant miracle God performed in Esther's life. That was her biggest turning point, and she encourages people who are not certain about miracles, that they are real, and they still happen

Download or read book Lifting the Veil written by Jane Kamerling and published by Fisher King Press. This book was released on 2012-05 with total page 167 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lifting The Veil: Why They Hate Us brings awareness to the unconscious and underlying dynamics that are reflected in the history and present day conflicts between the Islamic and Western worlds. The devastation and shock of 9/11 reached every community in America. It raised questions never before considered. Inspired by that event, research became critical to organize our thinking and make sense out of nonsense and organization out of chaos. Political literature addressing the dynamics leading up to the catastrophe of the collapse of the Twin Towers has been prolific as the urgency to understand the Islamic world has increased. International relations theory offers a variety of concepts of why and how nations may respond to one another for expansion, defense or peace. These theories develop with objective quantifiable equations and leave no room for immeasurable, subjective variables. Perception is one of those variables that can not be left out of the equation when looking at what motivates nations and international diplomacy. As Jungian analysts, Gustafson and Kamerling analyze an underlying psychological dynamic that fuels the conflict between the west and the Islamic world. They have distilled information from a variety of readings, interviews, documentaries and personal experiences in the Islamic world.

Download or read book Lifting the Veil on the Lost Continent of Mu the Motherland of Men written by Jack Churchward and published by Ozark Mountain Publishing. This book was released on 2011-08-01 with total page 425 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A re-issue of the 1926 classic by James Churchward, The Lost Continent of Mu: Motherland of Men supplemented with fresh research and new material by the author's great-grandson. In the 1920s, James Churchward wrote a series of groundbreaking books about the lost continent of Lemuria which he called the land of Mu. The basic premises are these: • The Garden of Eden was not in Asia, but on a sunken continent in the Pacific Ocean. • The Biblical story of creation came not from the peoples of the Nile, but from this now submerged continent of Mu—the Motherland of Men. • Mu was an advanced civilization of 64 million inhabitants… He obtained the information by living with monks and translating unknown manuscripts. Over the years, his books have come to be considered occult classics. Now his great-grandson, Jack Churchward, has resurrected this valuable work and added his own research. Included: · The Lost Continent · The Land of Man’s Advent on Earth · Egyptian Sacred Volume, Book of the Dead · Symbols of Mu · North American’s Place Among the Ancient Civilizations · The Geological History of Mu · Ancient Religious Conceptions · Ancient Sacred Mysteries, Rites and Ceremonies

Download or read book The Three Veils of Ibn Oraybi written by Vincent Czyz and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2021-07-06 with total page 67 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Vincent Czyz, author of the #1 Kindle bestseller The Christos Mosaic and the award-winning Adrift in a Vanishing City, has crafted a tale of regret, revenge, and redemption--set in the fading Ottoman Empire of the nineteenth century. Accused of heresy by a powerful Ottoman pasha, an aging Turkish alchemist flees his native Constantinople, exiling himself to a small town in the hinterlands of the East. A Muslim and a foreigner, as well as a man of letters, he finds life among a populace of stubbornly pagan peasants difficult. Yet when the pasha tracks him down, Ibn Oraybi realizes that the rural folk he's settled among are quick witted, resourceful, and fiercely loyal. Suspecting he has more to learn from them than they do from him, he reveals the secret that has haunted him for so much of his life. The Three Veils of Ibn Oraybi entreats readers to let go of the unalterable past and explore new vistas and alternative worldviews. Praise for The Three Veils... "I loved ever fluttering veil." -- Albert Goldbath, Winner of the National Book Critics Circle Award for Poetry "Czyz weaves mystery, history, religious fervor, and social inspection into this story of struggle, which ends with a surprising twist... Its lovely, lyrical language and thought-provoking encounters not only bring the times to life but explore the politics and psychological profiles of cultures that lived side by side, but in very different worlds." -- D. Donovan, Senior Reviewer, Midwest Book Review "The Three Veils of Ibn Oraybi is an enchantment, that rare fusion of poetry and fiction, intellectual query and sensuous revelation, narrative tension and ease of telling, that I hope for each time I open a new work. In the context of a deadly struggle between dogma and reason, it spins a tale of loyalty and betrayal in which powerless women alter the fates of powerful men. Enriched by pagan and Islamic lore, it transports the reader in fresh ways to wise places. Once I started reading it, I couldn't put it down until I finished it." -- Donald Levering, author of Previous Lives and winner of the Tor House Robinson Jeffers Prize in Poetry Praise for Vincent Czyz... "There are people who can write ripping yarns. And there are people who can write fine, risk-taking prose. Not that many can do both ... Vincent Czyz pulls off that daring double-feat with style and verve." -- Peter Blauner, author of Slow Motion Riot and Sunrise Highway "Czyz is more than a bit mystical; indeed, he searches for rapture ... What he's really after, however, is to find mystery within mystery, to have experiences he cannot live without yet cannot pin down." -- Paul West, author of The Place in Flowers Where Pollen Rests Praise for Adrift in a Vanishing City... "Deeply romantic ... and darkly evocative, Czyz's lush style explores regions well beyond simple narrative, probing the constantly shifting, oblique connections between failure, memory and the forever-incomplete nature of human desire. A moody, gorgeous and formally innovative collection, Adrift deserves a wide audience ... who understand[s] that fiction is about more than getting a character from one room to the next." -- Greg Burkman, The Seattle Times "The writing, more like poetry than prose, calls attention to language, to the fullness of a word, a sentence, with the purpose of expressing inexpressible emotions and experiences ... Adrift is ... lyrical and pensive, an odd and often beautiful portrait of longing." -- Capper Nichols, Minnesota Daily "Even as these stories sprawl they vanish, even as they roam and carve, as plotlines wheel off on their own orbits, so too do they come clawing back together." -- Nate Liederbach, Logos Journal
