Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Sorrows of Satan (1895) was one of the first modern bestsellers and was influential in establishing some of the major trends in twentieth-century bestselling fiction. `Breakers ahead! Throughout the world, storm and danger and doom! Doom and Death! - but afterwards - Life!' London, 1895, and the Devil is on the loose. He is searching for someone morally strong enough to resist temptation, but there seem little chance he will succeed. Britain is all but totally corrupt. The aristocracy is financially and spiritually bankrupt; church leaders no longer believe in God;Victorian idealism has been banished from literature and life; and sexual morality is being undermined by the pernicious doctrines of the `New Woman'. Everything and everyone is up for sale, and it takes a special kind of moral courage to resist the Devil's seductions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1895, The Sorrows of Satan is a Faustian novel by Marie Corelli. It is widely regarded as one of the world's first best-sellers, partly due to an upheaval in the system British libraries used to purchase their books and partly due to its popular appeal. Roundly condemned by critics for Corelli's moralistic and prosaic style it nonetheless had strong supporters in Oscar Wilde and various members of royalty. It is increasingly regarded as an influential fin de siècle text.

Download or read book Little Elegies for Sister Satan written by Michael Palmer and published by New Directions Publishing. This book was released on 2021-05-04 with total page 133 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shaped by the poet’s long view of history, these beautiful lamenting poems take sudden bracing plunges into close-up views of our apocalypse Little Elegies for Sister Satan presents indelibly beautiful new poems by Michael Palmer, “the foremost experimental poet of his generation, and perhaps of the last several generations” (citation for The Academy of American Poets’ Wallace Stevens Award). Grappling with our dark times and our inability to stop destroying the planet or to end our endless wars, Palmer offers a counterlight of wit (poetry was dead again / they said again), as well as the glow of wonder. In polyphonic passages, voices speak from a decentered place, yet are rooted in the whole history of culture that has gone before: “When I think of ‘possible worlds,’ I think not of philosophy, but of elegy. And impossible worlds. Resistant worlds.” In the light of day perhaps all of this will make sense. But have we come this far, come this close to death, just to make sense?

Download or read book The Gospel According to Satan written by Jared C. Wilson and published by Thomas Nelson. This book was released on 2020-01-14 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Not every lie sounds untrue. Some lies are repeated so often they seem to be common sense. That's why lies about God are so dangerous. The Gospel According to Satan examines eight lies the enemy wants us to believe and provides eight lines of counterattack against them. The lies include: God just wants you to be happy; you only live once you need to live your truth; and just let go and let God. Jared C. Wilson reveals why these lies appeal to us, shows how they harm us, and provides ways to counteract them. We can renounce Satan's counterfeit gospel, but first we must see it for what it is. "Enumerates the major ways the Devil uses his cunning and calculating ways of luring us off the narrow road of God's grace. We will all do well to read this book and confront the lies we are being sold."--Kyle Idleman, senior pastor of Southeast Christian Church and author of Not a Fan and Don’t Give Up "A unique, compelling, and even witty look at the devil's current greatest hits--lies we urgently need to unmask." --Sam Allberry, speaker for Ravi Zacharias International Ministries and author of 7 Myths About Singleness and Why Does God Care Who I Sleep With? "One of the most thought-provoking writers in the Christian world today... He doesn’t just describe the tantalizing falsehoods of our age, he exposes how they've slithered into our hearts."--Matt Smethurst, managing editor at The Gospel Coalition and author of Before You Open Your Bible

Download or read book The Conflict of Adam and Eve with Satan written by Michael Gore and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-03-31 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Conflict of Adam and Eve with Satan also known as “The First & Second book of Adam and Eve”, is broken up into two parts or books: Books 1 and 2 begin immediately after the expulsion by God our Father from the Garden of Eden, and ending with the testament and translation of Enoch. Great emphasis is placed in Book 1 on Adam's sorrow and helplessness in the world outside the garden.In Book 2, the "sons of God" who appear in Genesis 6:2 are identified as the children of Seth, and the "daughters of men" as women descended from Cain, who successfully tempt most of the Sethites to come down from their mountain and join the Cainites in the valley below, under the instigation of Genun, son of Lamech. This Genun, as the inventor of musical instruments, seems to correspond to the Biblical Jubal; however he also invents weapons of war. The Cainites, descended from Cain the first murderer, are described as exceedingly wicked, being prone to commit murder and incest. After seducing the Sethites, their offspring become or join with the Nephilim, the "mighty men" of Genesis. 6 who are all destroyed in the deluge of the Great flood of Noah, as also detailed in other works such as I Enoch and Jubilees. The Nephilim were the offspring of the "sons of God" and the "daughters of men" according to Genesis 6:4; and giants who inhabited Canaan according to Numbers 13:33. The term "Nephilim" occurs only twice in The Holy Bible, both in the Torah. The first is Genesis 6:1–4, and immediately before the story of Noah's ark. The second is Numbers 13:32–33, where the Twelve Spies report that they have seen fearsome man like giants in the lands of Canaan.The genealogy from Adam to Noah's sons is given, as in the Gospels, but including also the names of the wives of each of Jesus' ancestors, which is extremely rare. In general, this account begins where the Genesis story of Adam and Eve leaves off. Therefore the two cannot be compared; here we have a new chapter--a sort of sequel to the other. Here is the story of the twin sisters of Cain and Abel, and it is notable that here the blame for the first murder is placed squarely at the door of a difference over Woman. However perhaps the greatest evidence of Devine authenticity of this great “copy” correctly tells us of the number of days in a Solar Year, and that the earth was not flat but round, also that the earth is not the centre of the universe and the sun is the centre and all planets revolve around it… This “Copy” also details the number of planets and states that we have ten planets not nine as we teach today. However in 2005 a new planet was discovered in our Solar System named “Eris” which was discovered by the team of Mike Brown, Chad Trujillo, and David Rabinowitz on January 5, 2005, from images taken on October 21, 2003. These facts puts “The Conflict of Adam and Eve with Satan” un-deniable Holy Spiritual Devine Scripture and should be included in every Holy Bible translation in future times.

Download or read book The Sorrows of Satan written by Marie Corelli and published by BoD - Books on Demand. This book was released on 2022-10-24 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On the surface the plot follows the story of a penniless, starving author called Geoffrey Tempest. So poor that he is behind on his rent and can barely afford light in his room, he receives three letters. The first is from a friend in Australia who has made his fortune and offers to introduce him to a good friend who might be able to lift him from poverty. The second is a note from a solicitor detailing that he has inherited a fortune from a deceased relative. The third is a letter of introduction from a foreign aristocrat called Lucio, who befriends him and proceeds to be his guide in how best to use his newfound wealth. Tempest remains blissfully unaware throughout the novel, despite warnings from people he meets, that Lucio is the earthly incarnation of the Devil. Over the course of the book, his wealth leads to misery. Eventually, when confronted with the true nature of his companion, he renounces evil and returns to society penniless but content with the chance to purify his soul. Although the plot follows Tempest's fall from grace and subsequent redemption, he is in many regards a secondary character to Lucio. Both the title of the work and much of its philosophical content relate to the supreme yearning within Satan to achieve salvation. The book's main contribution to Faustian literature is the introduction of the concept that above all other people it is Satan who most truly believes in the Gospel, and yet he is forbidden ever to partake of it.
