Download or read book The Grand Substitution written by Dr. Glenn R. Tingling BBA MDiv ThD and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2021-10-12 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Firmly grounded in scripture, The Grand Substitution, by author Dr. Glenn R. Tingling, provides an explanation of Second Corinthians 5:21. God made his son to be the sacrificial offering for sin so he could justly pardon and remove humanity’s sin, and in its place impute his righteousness to them. Consequently, believers in Christ stand in Christ’s righteousness: the requirement for eternal life and heaven. The Grand Substitution, a follow-up book to The Imputation Triangle: delivers detailed descriptions and definitions in answering the questions: What is sin? What is the sin nature? How does it behave? How to control it? And, who is a sinner? explains the three types of righteousness: human/practical righteousness, self-righteousness, and imputed righteousness; addresses characteristics and roles of the three agents involved in the substitution transaction: sinful humanity, Christ the mediator, and an offended holy God; and provides, from scripture, a road map to obtaining assurance of salvation for believers in Christ. Tingling blends a wealth of experience of more than sixty years as a practicing and serving Christian, with a strong background in business and academic and theological education, to offer an insightful, challenging, inspiring, and practical discussion for those who seek a deeper understanding of salvation.

Download or read book Small Cinemas in Global Markets written by David Desser and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2014-12-18 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Small Cinemas in Global Markets addresses aspects such as identity, revisiting the past, internationalized genres, new forms of experimental cinema, markets and production, as well as technological developments of alternative small screens that open new perspectives into small cinema possibilities. Small and big markets for small industries reveal an unimagined diversification of the cultural product and consequently the need to analyze the impact at local, regional, and global levels. Much needed to continue and expand the existing scholarship in the field, this volume is based on research by authors who approach their subject from Western theoretical perspectives with a professional (mostly native) knowledge of the language, cultural realities, and film industry practices. It covers aspects from fifteen different countries, including Bolivia, Brazil, China (Hong Kong), Croatia, East Africa (Kenya, Tanzania, and Uganda), Greece, Indonesia, Lithuania, Bulgaria, Poland, Romania, Morocco, and the United States. Since both film and documentary distribution from certain areas of the globe on international markets remains problematic, it is important for the academic field to discuss and circulate them as much as possible, and to create the basis for further exploration. Documenting and reflecting on the role, state, and reception of the film industry provides scholarly understanding to the industry’s wide range of seemingly chaotic technological transformations.

Download or read book Valley Thunder written by Charles R. Knight and published by Savas Beatie. This book was released on 2010-05-10 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An “exciting and informative” account of the Civil War battle that opened the 1864 Shenandoah Valley Campaign, with illustrations included (Lone Star Book Review). Charles Knight’s Valley Thunder is the first full-length account in decades to examine the combat at New Market on May 15, 1864 that opened the pivotal Shenandoah Valley Campaign. Lt. Gen. Ulysses S. Grant, who set in motion the wide-ranging operation to subjugate the South in 1864, intended to attack on multiple fronts so the Confederacy could no longer “take advantage of interior lines.” A key to success in the Eastern Theater was control of the Shenandoah Valley, an agriculturally abundant region that helped feed Gen. Robert E. Lee’s Army of Northern Virginia. Grant tasked Maj. Gen. Franz Sigel, a German immigrant with a mixed fighting record, and a motley collection of units numbering some 10,000 men to clear the Valley and threaten Lee’s left flank. Opposing Sigel was Maj. Gen. (and former US Vice President) John C. Breckinridge, who assembled a scratch command to repulse the Federals. Included in his 4,500-man army were Virginia Military Institute cadets under the direction of Lt. Col. Scott Ship, who’d marched eighty miles in four days to fight Sigel. When the armies faced off at New Market, Breckinridge told the cadets, “Gentlemen, I trust I will not need your services today; but if I do, I know you will do your duty.” The sharp fighting seesawed back and forth during a drenching rainstorm, and wasn’t concluded until the cadets were inserted into the battle line to repulse a Federal attack and launch one of their own. The Union forces were driven from the Valley, but would return, reinforced and under new leadership, within a month. Before being repulsed, they would march over the field at New Market and capture Staunton, burn VMI in Lexington (partly in retaliation for the cadets’ participation at New Market), and very nearly capture Lynchburg. Operations in the Valley on a much larger scale that summer would permanently sweep the Confederates from the “Bread Basket of the Confederacy.” Valley Thunder is based on years of primary research and a firsthand appreciation of the battlefield terrain. Knight’s objective approach includes a detailed examination of the complex prelude leading up to the battle, and his entertaining prose introduces soldiers, civilians, and politicians who found themselves swept up in one of the war’s most gripping engagements.

Download or read book The Lost Peace written by Richard Sakwa and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2023-10-24 with total page 446 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The end of the Cold War was an opportunity – our inability to seize it has led to today’s renewed era of great power competition 1989 heralded a unique prospect for an enduring global peace, as harsh ideological divisions and conflicts began to be resolved. Now, three decades on, that peace has been lost. With war in Ukraine and increasing tensions between China, Russia, and the West, great power politics once again dominates the world stage. But could it have been different? Richard Sakwa shows how the years before the first mass invasion of Ukraine represented a hiatus in conflict rather than a lasting accord – and how, since then, we have been in a ‘Second Cold War’. Tracing the mistakes on both sides that led to the current crisis, Sakwa considers the resurgence of China and Russia and the disruptions and ambitions of the liberal order that opened up catastrophic new lines of conflict. This is a vital, strongly-argued account of how the world lost its chance at peace, and instead saw the return of war in Europe, global rivalries, and nuclear brinkmanship.
