Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Passion di Orchi is no more than the obscenely rich daughter of a West Coast mafia boss - until she decides to rebuild Venice. In the middle of the Pacific. A century later, with New Venice ossified into a puritanical elegance, the daughter of Count Ryuchi slips away from her father's palazzo, out to the levels to play Lucifer's Dragon. A multi-level, self-perpetuating, true 3-D trawl through the Apocalypse, Lucifer's Dragon is coded so the game never repeats its own failures. But an altercation in a bar puts Karo on a collision course with NVPD officer Angeli, drafted in by media giant CySat to investigate a murder she knows way too much about. And then there's Razz, the silver exotic. Too tired and jaded to keep living, she takes on the job of guarding CySat's ultimate boss, the ten-year-old Aurelio. With all the high tech security in place, it should be a walk in the park. But the last thing Razz sees is CySat's child-ruler making too close an acquaintance with an Uzi, and then she wakes up in Zurich. Dead…

Download or read book Reviving Old Scratch written by Richard Beck and published by Fortress Press. This book was released on 2016-06-03 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The devil has fallen on hard times. Surveys say that even the majority of Christians doubt Satans existence. Burdened by doubts, skeptical believers find themselves divorced from Jesus dramatic confrontation with Satan in the Gospels and from the struggle that galvanized the early church. In Reviving Old Scratch, popular blogger and theologian Richard Beck reintroduces the devil to the modern world with a biblical, bold, and urgent vision of spiritual warfare: we must resist the devil by joining the kingdom of Gods subversive campaign to interrupt the world with love. Beck shows how conservative Christians too often overspiritualize the devil and demons, and progressive Christians reduce these forces to social justice issues. By understanding evil as a very real force in the world, we are better able to name it for what it is and thus to combat it as Jesus did. Becks own work in a prison Bible study and at a church for recovering addicts convinced him to take Satan more seriously, and they provide compelling illustrations as he challenges the contemporaryand strangely safeversions of evil forces. The beliefs of liberals and conservatives alike will be tested by Becks groundbreaking ideas, fascinating stories, and clear thinking. Because if Jesus took Satan seriously, says Beck, then so should we. Winner of the 2017 Book of the Year Award from The Academy of Parish Clergy!

Download or read book Lucifer written by Jeffrey Burton Russell and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 1986 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "If, as Chesterton claimed, the devil's greatest triumph was convincing the modern world that he does not exist, Jeffrey Burton Russell means to rob him of his victory. Lucifer: The Devil in the Middle Ages is both a scholarly assessment of the development of diabology in the Middle Ages and an impassioned plea to the 20th century to recognize and acknowledge the existence of real, objective evil. The third in a series of works tracing the history of the devil from his Judeo-Christian roots, it represents a formidable undertaking: the devil's history is integrally related to the problem of evil, which is in turn at the heart of Western religious thought. Each of the volumes on Satan comprises, in essence, a judicious and able tour of Christian theology from the villain's point of view... Book jacket.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prince and Dragon is the second part of the biography of Lucifer, closely based on the ancient and global traditions and texts from Eurasia that revere the two primal powers of the cosmos. Their opposition and reconciliation is cosmic history, but also the history of their human allies in an onging Cosmic War. Beneath the bloody and bloodline struggles in the Void and the Star Court are patterns working themselves out as destruction and creation. The fate of a conscious cosmos rests in Lucifer's hands, the stubborn hands of the Dark Space Diver, the Dark Energy Brother, who must attempt to unite even though betrayed. As two galaxies rush on a collision course toward each other, Lucifer tries to prevent a cosmic Ragnarok, even at the price of sacrificing himself. This is the continuation of the older, accurate and sophisticated accounts of Lucifer, part Pendragon, part Yahweh Prince.

Download or read book Gold Hall and Earth Dragon written by Alvin A. Lee and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2011-11-01 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aim of Gold-Hall and Earth-Dragon is to re-create as fully as possible for modern readers the original force of the poetic language of Beowulf. Lee makes use of a wide, archetypal literary context for Beowulf to provide illuminating parallels and contrasts with poems and fictions from other times and places. He demonstrates how the poem's symbolic system reveals itself through the metaphorical workings of the Old English words, patterns of imagery, and more general narrative structures, and how the poem might have been experienced and interpreted by the Anglo-Saxons in the light of other Old English poems. The critical tools that Lee uses - combining certain techniques of New Criticism and close reading with postmodern theories of the self-referentiality of language and with Northrop Frye's conceptions of structure and polysemy in literature - make possible a fresh new account of Beowulf as a work that is very much alive in its poetic language, a finely wrought symbolic work of imagining, still resonant with meanings old and new.

There is so much to know about his ways, and how he operates with his wicked angels. The world believes that Satan and Lucifer is the same wicked angel, but Satan is the dragon, and the most dangerous, wicked and powerful one is Lucifer. Satan only has seven crowns but Lucifer, the leopard, has ten crowns. The crowns represent power. I have unveiled all his evil and wicked works. Lucifer had destroyed a lot of great people in the Old Testament like Samson, Adam, Cain, and John the Baptist, and he tried to set up Jesus. Lucifer did not know that Jesus was setting him up instead, and you will see how God Jesus destroyed Lucifer and chopped off one of his heads and wounded him to death. You will also see how God Jesus used his good angels to do His great works for Him in the bible, from Genesis to Revelation, through the power of the Holy Spirit, in my three books.
