Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On a sultry South Carolina island, sunlight teases out the darkest secrets of the heart, in this novel from the author of An Undisturbed Peace. Joe and Abigail Becker, a Jewish couple from Boston, have inherited a house on Sweetgrass Island in South Carolina’s Lowcountry. Though they feel like fish out of water, the couple is excited to give the South a try—and maybe even find it a place to finally call home. Their Boston friends are convinced they won’t last the summer. But the South works its magic on the Beckers, holding them fast to misty marsh, farmlands, and grand oaks, the sweet twang of banjos and the blues. Even the locals have put aside their usual mistrust of transplants. Joe is convinced that has more to do with Abigail’s beauty than with his dubious charms—especially in the case of Billy Euston. A celebrated pit master and womanizer, Billy is transfixed with Abigail at first sight. And though Joe is used to his lovely wife’s effect on men, he misjudges their playful flirtations—a tragic mistake that will tear through the island like a hurricane, leaving the broken and the battered in its wake . . .

Download or read book Heavenly Things To Die For written by Min. Dr Tony M Thurston and published by Outskirts Press, Inc.. This book was released on 2023-01-27 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a team member of Amazing Things The Church, the origin of this book is a result of Dr. Tony Thurston finding a way to express what The Lord God gave to all of the saints who will be joining Him soon in glory. Corroborating with Elder Sharon Bright Boxley, also of Amazing Things. I demonstrate the will of God for believers on this side of the grave and then show the awesome splendor and majesty that He’s revealing to us beyond the grave and into eternity. Upon completion of my graduate work in ‘End Time’ ministry, I was convinced that there were not many books that covered both sides of the grave simultaneously. I also noticed that the blow of death to families was just too monumental. So, I felt compelled to offer, not only for the living but also additional hope to people and families facing grave or terminal experiences. During these difficult times, I provide hope not arguing points. Thus, the book ‘Heavenly Things to Die For’ targets four potential groups. The downtrodden, those searching for Gods’ proof text, the sick, terminally ill, and the elderly. Scriptures are being discussed that will lift you up knowing that there in our midst is the compassionate God that loves you no matter what the situation is. It delivers hope to those who are living or hope to people who are terminally ill. (Phil 1:21-27) The goal that is met in this offering is to bring you to a point of accepting whatever God has ordained for you including the beginning of real life which in fact is death. Pleasure Being Mine, Minister Dr. Tony Thurston

This book was released on 2019-11-27 with total page 719 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With facts and information, insightful commentary, and even a few flights of fantasy, The Story Behind the Bible trilogy weaves a magnetic journey through the ancient texts of the Bible for believers and non-believers alike. It's a journey that can draw readers into a universe that is larger and more incredible than they ever thought possible. A highly comprehensive overview of the entire Bible, the trilogy also proves that the prophets of scripture made impossible and miraculous predictions and prophecies concerning future events, including our current era, and virtually proves that God's hand steers the broad stream of world history. Now, over two thousand years hence, much of scripture has been misinterpreted, misapplied, or simply lost to traditions and folklore. The books address those issues with commentary and doctrine, and, through the elegant story and amazing people of the New Testament, bring the biblical story to a triumphant end.

Download or read book The Black Babylon America written by Charlie Williams and published by Charlie Williams. This book was released on 2023-11-28 with total page 167 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In America, Babylon is often used as a metaphorical term referring to a city or a cultural phenomenon that represents excessive materialism, corruption, or moral decay; it is derived from the ancient city of Babylon in Mesopotamia known for opulence and decadence. In American literature and popular culture, Babylon is sometimes used to describe cities like New York or Las Vegas, which are seen as centers of commercialism, consumerism, and superficiality. It can also be used more broadly to critique societal values and the influence of money and power. Let us build our Black Babylon right here in America; we (Black people) are already a popular culture that everyone tries to mimic our music, style, and skin color. Every state in America has Black people living in Babylon, for which they have no power. So, let me tell you series of true short stories about my life that involve the history and plight of black people. Self-improvement, true crime, politics, economics, spirituality, and religion. I’ve heard Black folks always talking about being Kings and Queens in Africa. Well, we all weren’t Kings and Queens and I really never believed in royalty in any race, who decided their blood was royal. I’m just looking for Black excellence. The things I went through are how it was, and in some form or fashion still is; by the end of this book, I hope you can see how it should be in a Black Babylon filled with Black excellence. You can’t be free by yourself, and no amount of money will make you free without us all being free. I now know and understand how we can build our own power base right here in America. Then and only then will we be free. Just me being me Black, proud, and determined to be free. Bro Will Babylon Philly
Download or read book Born in Babylon written by Jane M. Iery and published by TEACH Services, Inc.. This book was released on with total page 71 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A fantastic read! Great for sharing with others that they too may ‘Come out’ of Mystery Babylon into freedom in Jesus Christ and Bible truth. Highly recommended!" ~ Steve Wohlberg, Speaker/Director, White Horse Media Jane Iery was born into a large, happy family, the fifth of seven children. Born and raised a Catholic, Jane was active in her church much of her adult life, but that was after her tumultuous teenaged years. Smoking and drinking led to an unplanned pregnancy and an unwanted marriage. Not surprisingly, the marriage dissolved after a few years, and her drinking led her to meet another man in a bar. They soon married and moved back to Jane’s hometown, prompting her to return to her childhood church. Life threw Jane some hard curveballs, but as it did, she became more earnest to know more about Jesus. She became involved in her church, singing in the choir and serving in various capacities until working her way up to becoming a pastoral assistant. Her world began turning upside down when she found a flyer to an evangelistic series titled Unlock Revelation. There she learned that much of what she’d been taught and believed in was not scriptural but false doctrine. She recounts: Pastor Crews asked us, “Have we been true to the biblical text? I propose that the antichrist is the Roman Church-State church, the historic Christian church, the medieval Christian church; the church that was married to God itself became the antichrist!” After hearing and seeing this, I paused the video. My mind was screaming, how can this be? How can this be? This cannot be so! I began to cry, and my entire body trembled uncontrollably. What was I going to do? Journey with Jane as she navigates Bible truth as compared to the teachings of the Catholic Church. You’ll rejoice as truth triumphs in her life and the life of her husband.

Download or read book When Angels Cry written by Robert Wright and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2006 with total page 355 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book culminates years of study and research by its writer, Robert Wright. While still a child, Robert, intrigued by discussions held by his parents and family friends as they celebrated the Sabbath hours on Friday evenings and Saturdays, developed a love for Bible prophecy and history. Educated in both public and private Christian schools, Robert has a Masters degree in Educational Psychology. Of his many interests, Bible prophecy is his passion. In this book, the writer examines Seventh-day Adventists beliefs concerning Babylon the Great. He addresses the issues head-on, challenging traditional views, providing alternative perspectives, yet leaving in tact the essential truths espoused by the church regarding the Papacy. The symbols of Revelation 12, 17, and 18 are re-examined as the writer presents evidence that suggests Babylon the Great does not symbolize the Papacy as traditionally taught. This book offers a bible-based defense of what Babylon symbolizes. Most importantly, this book encourages the reader to rely on the Bible as its own expositor, the only source upon which to establish faith as it introduces compelling insights regarding the message of the angel of Revelation 18. The message of this angel, the fourth angel's message, accompanied by the outpouring of the Latter Rain, represents God's final warning to the inhabitants of a planet destined for destruction. Yet at the same time, the message offers hope, a means of escape for all people that heed the Divine invitation to come out of Babylon.
