Book excerpt: Excerpt from Paul and the Revolt Against Him Many readers will remember the story told of some advocate of renown - probably it was Rufus Choate that after he had addressed a jury in an important case (which, of course, if it was Choate, he won), a friend of his who had listened to his argument rallied him by saying: Do you know, Mr. Choate, there was one point in your address to the jury that you went over not less than six times? Yes, I know that very well, was the reply; I got six men of the jury the first time I made that point. The rest, all but one man, fell in one after another, as I went on; but to get the twelfth man I had to go over that point, as you noted, up to six times - but on the sixth I got him.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Paul Revere: The Torch Bearer of the Revolution IT has been Wisely said that Time must lay a finger on events to make them into history. The further away we stand from certain pictures, the more dis tinct they appear. The events we read of in today's newspaper are not history, but twenty years, or fifty, or a century hence, our descendants will pore over the musty, dusty files, and history will be born. Paul Revere never imagined that he was living in an epoch - making period; yet the story of his eventful life holds a fascination of its own, appealing strongly to the interest of readers, old and young. He stood for so much in the history of our country in those stirring Revolutionary times, that we cannot lightly pass over the many services he rendered to the cause of Liberty.

Download or read book History of Christianity written by Paul Johnson and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2012-03-27 with total page 816 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1976, Paul Johnson’s exceptional study of Christianity has been loved and widely hailed for its intensive research, writing, and magnitude—“a tour de force, one of the most ambitious surveys of the history of Christianity ever attempted and perhaps the most radical” (New York Review of Books). In a highly readable companion to books on faith and history, the scholar and author Johnson has illuminated the Christian world and its fascinating history in a way that no other has. Johnson takes off in the year AD 49 with his namesake the apostle Paul. Thus beginning an ambitious quest to paint the centuries since the founding of a little-known ‘Jesus Sect’, A History of Christianity explores to a great degree the evolution of the Western world. With an unbiased and overall optimistic tone, Johnson traces the fantastic scope of the consequent sects of Christianity and the people who followed them. Information drawn from extensive and varied sources from around the world makes this history as credible as it is reliable. Invaluable understanding of the framework of modern Christianity—and its trials and tribulations throughout history—has never before been contained in such a captivating work.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Twelve-term Texas Congressman, Presidential candidate, and #1 New York Times bestselling author Ron Paul returns with a highly provocative treatise about how we need to fundamentally change the way we think about America's broken education system in order to fix it. Whether or not you have children, you know that education is vital to the prosperity and future of our society. Yet our current system simply doesn't work. Parents feel increasingly powerless, and nearly half of Americans give our schools a grade of "C". Now, in his new book, Ron Paul attacks the problem head-on and provides a focused solution that centers on strong support for home schooling and the application of free market principles to the American education system. Examining the history of education in this country, Dr. Paul identifies where we've gone wrong, what we can do about it, and how we can change the way we think about education in order to provide a brighter future for Americans.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Paul and His Epistles WE have called this book Paul and His Epistles, but it might be Paul in His Epistles just as well, for the book aims to be not only an Introduction to the Pauline Epistles but also a Study of the Personality of the Apostle Paul as revealed in them. They are fragments of his life. They are all autobiographical in character. They ought not to be read as treatises in theology, for none of them was intended to be merely theological. They ought to be recognized as the products of personal experience. They ought not to be pre sented dry as dust and dead as a doornail. They are full of vitality. They were written to meet the real needs of real people, and they were written by a man who wore his heart on his sleeve and who never dictated a letter without putting himself wholly and unreservedly into it. We shall endeavor to make this apostle and the peoples to whom he ministered in these epistles live again in these pages, being assured that if we succeed in any measure, we only shall bring to light the life and immortality which has be longed to them by right from the beginning.

Download or read book St Paul s Epistle to the Romans Classic Reprint written by Alexander MacLaren and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-09-23 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from St. Paul's Epistle to the Romans God forbid that any words that ever drop from my lips should seem to cast the smallest shadow of doubt on that great truth, God so loved the world that He gave His Son ' But God forbid, equally, that any words of mine should seem to favour the, to me, . Repellent idea that the infinite love of God disregards the character of the man on whom it falls. There are manifestations of that loving heart which any man can receive; and each man gets as much of the love of God as it is possible to pour upon him. But granite rock does not drink in the dew as a flower does; and the nature of the man on whom God's love falls deter mines how much, and what manner of its manifesta tions shall pass into his true possession, and what Shall remain without. So, on the whole, we have to answer the questions, Does God love any? Does not God love all? Does God specially love some with the one monosyllable, Yes. And so, dear brethren, let us learn the path by which we can pass into that blessed community of those on whom the fullness and sweetness and tenderest tender ness of the Father's heart will fall. If a man love Me, he will keep My words; and My Father will love him.' Myths tell us that the light which, at the beginning, had been diffused through a nebulous mass, was next gathered into a sun. So the universal love of God is concentrated in Jesus Christ; and if we have Him we have it; and if we have faith we have Him, and can say, 'neither life, nor death, nor things present, nor things to come, nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.'

Download or read book The Christian Truth written by Ernesto Ferreira and published by Publicadora Servir / Maxishiled International. This book was released on 2015-07-29 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A growing part of the world population today suffers of an authentic existential void, ignoring the roots of their past, the profound reason of their present life and what perspectives does the future hold for them.

That variety is clear evidence that the final solution transcends the purely human endeavor. It is in this context that the person of Jesus and The Christian Truth come in, as the divine solution for the human tragedy. And that is the reason for The Christian Truth in the Light of Reason, Divine Revelation and Tradition. A reference book about the Christian message in Bible and history that reaches its climax in a personal testimony of the author, a testimony that is, at the same time, a statement of true belief.

Download or read book Unprepared To Die written by Paul Slade and published by Soundcheck Books. This book was released on 2015-11-01 with total page 151 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Gory Stories Behind The Murder Ballads Cheerfully vulgar, revelling in gore, and always with an eye on the main chance, murder ballads are tabloid newspapers set to music, carrying word of the latest ‘orrible murders to an insatiable public. Victims are bludgeoned, stabbed or shot in every verse and killers often hanged, but the songs themselves never die. Instead, they mutate – morphing to suit local place names as they criss cross the Atlantic and continue to fascinate each generation’s biggest musical stars. Paul Slade traces this fascinating genre’s history through eight of its greatest songs. Stagger Lee’s “biographers” alone include Duke Ellington, James Brown, Bob Dylan, Dr John, The Clash and Nick Cave. No two tell his story in quite the same way. Covering eight classic murder ballads, including “Knoxville Girl”, “Tom Dooley” and “Frankie & Johnny”, Slade investigates the real-life murder which inspired each song and traces its musical development down the decades. Billy Bragg, The Bad Seeds’ Mick Harvey, Laura Cantrell, Rennie Sparks of The Handsome Family and a host of other leading musicians add their own insights.
