  The Law of Moses - Or The Law Of...

  The holy scriptures are not always easy to read and understand. The Old Testament has many laws that are impossible for us to keep. Consider some of the following laws. Should we apply capital punishment for incorrigible children? (Exodus 21:18-21), for those caught in adultery? And if you will be honest with yourself, this will include a vast number of people today (Leviticus 20:10). What about the false teachers among us (Deuteronomy 13:1-11), should we be stoning them to death? 
  These laws were established for the Jewish nation. They were not then to be passed onto the Church. The Church was established just over 50 days after Jesus died on the cross. At his death the new covenant came into effect and this is the law Christians are meant to keep today. 
  Jesus has been described as being of greater worth than Moses, Moses himself tells us there would come another prophet, and we must listen to him. And that prophet was Jesus Christ. When Jesus was baptised in the river by John. God the Father's voice was heard, and he also said "listen to him". 
  We cannot keep both laws, so we must keep either one or the other. The new laws of Jesus Christ came into effect the moment Jesus died on the cross, and these are the laws all people must keep. Jews and Christians alike. Keeping these laws is the only way to be seen as righteous in the eyes of God.

  Sister of Darkness - The...

  The world’s only non-denominational exorcist—the subject of a forthcoming major motion picture—tells her astonishing true story: a riveting chronicle of wrestling entities from infected souls, showing how pain and trauma opens us to attachment from forces that drain our energy . . . and can even destroy our humanity. 
  As a secular exorcist, Rachel H. Stavis has cleansed thousands of tormented people, from small children and Hollywood moguls to stay-at-home moms and politicians. But for many years, the horror screenwriter and novelist denied her gift. As a little girl, she began to see ""monsters"" floating around her bedroom or attached to other children. Told it was only her imagination, Rachel learned to ignore the things she saw.  
  But a series of events in adulthood forced her to acknowledge her unique ability and embrace her power to heal. Since then, Rachel has dedicated her life to helping others cast off the forces feeding off of us. Performing her services pro-bono, she quietly worked in the shadows, until she unknowingly revealed her work to a journalist, who told her story to NPR. 
  A unique look at demonology removed from religious dogma, Sister of Darkness recounts Rachel’s journey to becoming an exorcist and chronicles some of her most extreme cleansings cases, including those that put her and her clients in peril. Going deep into her world, we meet the diverse range of people she has helped—young, old, famous and not—in gripping stories of danger and sometimes sadness, that are ultimately about redemption. Rachel teaches us that there are a diverse range of ""entities"" surrounding us—some of these are playful or misguided, while some are dangerous and harmful. She introduces each of them and explains their power, helping us understand what is attacking and hurting us, and what we can do to protect ourselves. 
  Frightening, eye-opening, and utterly enthralling, Sister of Darkness brings to light a world ruled by destruction, chaos and fear, and the woman who bravely fights to protect those who seeks her out.

  How should Christians faithfully engage with politics in an increasingly polarized and complex society?
  Faithful Politics by Miranda Zapor Cruz offers a thoughtful and balanced road map for navigating this challenging question. Rather than prescribing easy answers or simplistic checklists, this book invites readers into a reflective exploration of ten distinct approaches to Christian political engagement, providing meaningful tools for deeper understanding.
  In this book Cruz guides readers in forming a vision of citizenship that brings Christian convictions into political engagement while avoiding common pitfalls. Cruz also provides a measured, nonpartisan overview of different ways Christians have approached political participation. These ten views represent a range of theological approaches to the relationship between the kingdom of God and the country, including Anabaptist, social gospel, principled pluralist, and Christian nationalist. Cruz describes strengths and weaknesses of each view, with a focus on Christian faithfulness.
  In Faithful Politics, you'll find
  
  - Thorough Scholarship: Presents ten distinct approaches to politics, ranging from separatist to dominionist and more
  - A Balanced Presentation: Offers a nonpartisan perspective while addressing strengths and weaknesses
  - Scriptural and Theological Insights: Establishes guiding principles grounded in Scripture to help shape faithful political participation
  Cruz observes that in the United States Christians with shared faith convictions can often reach differing political conclusions. However, Scripture and theology provide guiding principles that shape our thinking and remind us that our ultimate citizenship is in the kingdom of God. Faithful Politics invites readers to learn from Christians of the past as we discern how to be salt and light in our own time and place.
