Download or read book The Chosen for Such a Time Like This written by Uwemedimo Ekaette and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2014-07-23 with total page 155 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Underlay Gods purposes and programs throughout all the ages is to bring to a climax the full Salvation of man, which is having the fallen man recreated or regenerated and growing up into perfection in the image of Him who created Him or having man attain the full measure of the stature of Christ, who is the express image of God. In this realm of life, sickness, poverty, sorrow, and pains are no more, and death is completely abolished. This is Eden, this is paradise, and this is the kingdom of God where righteousness dwells. This realm is attainable now! I know you wouldnt want to miss out on this. Consequently, the curtain is ready to be drawn up; all things are ready, and God is now set to unveil His Sons. To this end, God is restoring the Sonship message and the reality of the establishment of the kingdom of God upon the earth. This gospel seems to have been lost and put aside for over a century now. God is causing as many as are ordained or predestined for this to enter into this realm of life. This is the fullness of the spirit. In this book, the author, in prophetic undertones, unravels the mystery of the coming salvation by the Elect and Chosen ones, who are the manifestation of the Sons of God at this close of the church age, to the intent that those whom God apprehends may be fully apprehended and persuaded to know the exceeding riches of His grace towards us whom He has Chosen in love before the foundation of the world to the praise of His glory and to know the exceeding greatness of His power that is available to us, in us and through us, whom He has Chosen, and to display the manifold or many-sided wisdom of God unto the principalities and powers by the Church in this age and that which is to come. This book is very timely. Be warned! This book is revolutionary. It will upturn your conventional religious worldview and beliefs and set you ablaze on fire and holy desire to lay hold of the fullness of God in Christ. Above all, it promises to be a blessing to all who read it and give heed to the words of this prophecy. Remain blessed!

Download or read book Esther written by Trudy Morgan-Cole and published by Review and Herald Pub Assoc. This book was released on 2003 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Trapped in the sensual swirl of an alien culture, her poise, beauty, and skill with the four-stringed oud caught the eye of Hegai. As she rose through the harem ranks, her true identity carefully concealed, her faith in eclipse, Esther had no inkling that the fate of a nation would hang upon her courage. Based on meticulous historical research, Trudy J. Morgan-Cole weaves the biblical story of Esther into secular history. Her deep narrative, involving more than 70 characters, brings to life the Zoroastrian society of ancient Persia and chronicles the known exploits and foibles of king Xerxes in authentic detail. Her amazing story shows how God turns women with common fears, struggles, and identity crises into heroines of faith. If you liked Terri Fivash's Joseph, you'll love Trudy J. Morgan-Cole's Esther.

Download or read book Esther written by Hanna Kahana and published by Peeters Publishers. This book was released on 2005 with total page 532 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is essentially a very exacting comparison between the Septuaginta translation of the Esther Scroll and its Hebrew text. Each and every verse in the Scroll is graphically presented in a four columned table in which we inserted the Hebrew text, broken up into syntactically coherent short phrases, its Greek counterpart and the English translations of the Hebrew and Greek phrases respectively. In the running commentary we discuss the additions and the omissions, examine how the Translator succeeded in rendering especially difficult and complicated Hebrew verses, and try to throw light on his language, his methods and his translational idiosyncrasies. We also quote the Vulgate, the Aramaic Targumim and the Greek A Text and, in most cases translate them too in English. The added value of this book is the synoptic graphic presentation of each verse which enables one to get an immediate impression of the two texts and their juxtaposition.

Download or read book The Thomas Watson Collection Illustrated written by Thomas Watson and published by Strelbytskyy Multimedia Publishing. This book was released on 2021-06-14 with total page 1667 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thomas Watson was a 17th-century minister at the church of St. Stephen Walbrook in London. As a pastor, he set himself two goals. First, he wanted unbelievers to grieve over their fate and realize the necessity of God's grace. On the other hand, he wanted believers to rejoice in the assurance that they had received God's grace. His books are simple but exciting commentaries with many practical examples and applications. He explains the paradox that both good and bad events contribute to the benefit of believers. He spends a great deal of time explaining what it means to love God and be called by His will. In this book, Watson manages to answer one of the most plaguing theological questions of all time: Why do bad things happen to good people? This eBook includes the following 14 volumes by Thomas Watson: Body of Practical Divinity The Ten Commandments The Lord's Prayer The Beatitudes The Godly Man's Picture The Art of Divine Contentment A Treatise Concerning Meditation The Great Gain of Godliness The Doctrine of Repentance The Mischief of Sin A Divine Cordial The Christian Soldier The Christian's Charter The Duty of Self-Denial

Download or read book Radical written by David Platt and published by Multnomah. This book was released on 2010-05-04 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New York Times bestseller What is Jesus worth to you? It's easy for American Christians to forget how Jesus said his followers would actually live, what their new lifestyle would actually look like. They would, he said, leave behind security, money, convenience, even family for him. They would abandon everything for the gospel. They would take up their crosses daily... But who do you know who lives like that? Do you? In Radical, David Platt challenges you to consider with an open heart how we have manipulated the gospel to fit our cultural preferences. He shows what Jesus actually said about being his disciple--then invites you to believe and obey what you have heard. And he tells the dramatic story of what is happening as a "successful" suburban church decides to get serious about the gospel according to Jesus. Finally, he urges you to join in The Radical Experiment -- a one-year journey in authentic discipleship that will transform how you live in a world that desperately needs the Good News Jesus came to bring.
