Beschreibung

There is an African axiom that says; smooth seas do not make skilful sailors. Whatever our level of faith, it is obvious that life is never smooth. God allows temptations to serve as the hard knocks of life that soften man’s rough edges and shape him into something more refined and resilient. Even Jesus our “high priest was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin – Hebrews 4:15”. Consequently, He admonished man in John 16:33; “These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.”

Starting with Salvation as the qualification to access God’s way of escape from temptations, the author takes the reader through Temptation, Types and Sources of Temptation, Temptation by Their Names, and Consequences of Failing Temptation. He assures that Temptation is surmountable, making available the steps to resist temptation before unveiling the Word that wards off various Temptations. He skillfully rounded up with additional educative quotes on temptations.

Read, apply and be blessed. Jesus is Lord!

    Every Christian can live a more heroic faith. "Heroic Faith" is not a new concept describing biblical disciples. For more than two thousand years, heroes of the faith have endured terrible suffering as they dedicate their lives to Jesus Christ. They choose to obey the Lord daily in order to advance Christ and his kingdom at any cost, like Boun, who is willing to risk everything in order to have a copy of God's Word.What do biblical disciples, who possess a heroic faith, value and live out? How can our own faith be more heroic? In Heroic Faith, you will meet and be inspired by biblical disciples who exemplify the foundation of the fruit of a heroic faith. And as you read the stories of these persecuted Christian brothers and sisters and realize that we are knit together –united by the blood and lordship of Christ–you will be inspired by how they live with heroic faith.

    In this riveting exploration of one of the Bible’s most iconic stories, Reaching for the Heavens delves into the epic saga of human ambition, pride, and divine intervention. The Tower of Babel, an ancient symbol of mankind’s desire to reach the heavens and become like God, stands as a monument to the dangers of overreaching and the fragile nature of human unity. 
    Drawing on historical context, biblical insight, and rich storytelling, this book takes readers on a journey through the rise of the Tower—a colossal effort driven by the people’s collective will to conquer the heavens. But what began as an ambitious feat of engineering and unity soon spirals into confusion and chaos as God intervenes, scattering the people and confusing their languages. 
    Through a mix of profound reflections and timeless lessons, Reaching for the Heavens unpacks themes of pride, human folly, the fragility of unity, and the consequences of overstepping divine boundaries. It’s a tale of both human greatness and downfall, and the reminder that, while we may strive to build empires, it is only by the grace of God that we truly stand united. 
    Perfect for readers seeking inspiration and insight from ancient stories with modern-day relevance, this book is a powerful call to reflect on the pursuits of power, the need for humility, and the eternal quest to know our place in the vast design of creation. Will we build towers that reach to the heavens, or will we learn to walk humbly in the shadow of a far greater power?

    The world of contemplative Christianity has yielded to the same voices for far too long, many of whom are from centuries before our time, with lives unlike our own, and often from experiences disconnected from marginalization, oppression, and what it feels like to be an outsider. 
     
     
     
    Cassidy Hall, an LGBTQIA+ Christian contemplative scholar and podcast host, takes us on a journey to queer the contemplative tradition. 
     
     
     
    As queerness reawakened her own contemplative life, Hall discovered that queering and questioning the tradition allowed her to listen more closely to voices that are queer, marginalized, and oppressed. In showing us the way, she helps us envision what contemplative faith can look like, what spiritual spaces we can reclaim for welcome—and how queering contemplation, and lifting up queer contemplative voices, frees us to seek the infinite possibility of our own identity and engage our spiritual lives with open hearts and open hands. 
     
     
     
    Whether you're queer or want to queer your own perspectives, Hall throws open the doors of contemplative spirituality for all, bringing us to contemplation in very new, sometimes old, but always queer ways.

    This insightful narrative speaks to the deep truth of human life and the amazing potential we all hold within us. Dr. Nolan's latest work chronicles a powerful narrative, tracing a woman's journey from childhood divine visitations through the depths of mystical psychedelic experiences, passages to India to meet her guru and divine revelations. 
    The authentic descriptions of little miracles, mystic moments, and the undying love of the infinite for all beings mark the book as a must-read for those seeking an understanding of the unity of all existence and the profound depths of spiritual awakening. 
    As a real-life story, the memoir encapsulates the highs and lows of spiritual transformation, self-doubt, loss of faith, and the emergence of a deep, lifelong relationship with the Divine, manifesting as an inner Guru/Guide. It presents an unparalleled account of what it is like to experience the God Self. 
    “Into the Heart of the Infinite” by Maetreyii Ma Nolan is a luminous beacon for spiritual seekers, offering a stirring testament to the power of love and the transformative journey of the soul...

A captivating exploration of divine wisdom that will appeal to readers seeking deeper spiritual connections." - Kirkus Reviews

    The greatest event to have ever happened in the entire world is undoubtedly the resurrection of our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ. There has always been a great deal of controversy about the crucifixion, burial, and resurrection of our Lord. 
    Christians have many beliefs about this all important incident. Most Christians believe he was resurrected from the dead on the first day of the week, Sunday, and have used this belief to justify Sunday as the day they worship God. You may be surprised to learn that this is incorrect and Jesus was resurrected on the Sabbath day. Please continue to listen to this book to discover the truth. 
    With so many ideas on this topic, I will seek the truth of this topic from the only source that really matters, and that is the Holy Bible. The full story from the time of Christ’s crucifixion until his resurrection from the dead was recorded in great detail in this amazing book. You will need patience and be willing to search the scriptures to find the truth God has buried in this book. We will not find the answer in just one place, a careful study in several original books of the bible will be needed to find the truth. 
    The bible is the inspired word of God and must be what influences our thoughts on all things. Keep in mind the following scripture as you read this book. Also remember this verse is referring to the entire bible, not just the new testament. Jesus quoted the bible often, and every time he quoted only from the old testament. This is because none of the new testament was written while Jesus was alive on this earth. This part of the bible was written mostly by his disciples and after his crucifixion and resurrection. 
    2Ti 3:16 Every Scripture is God-breathed and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for instruction in righteousness.
