Sinossi

This is a translation of the Kebra Nagast, a tremendous collection of Ethiopian Biblical folklore. The Kebra Nagast tells the legend of the Queen of Sheba's son by King Solomon, Menyelek (also known herein as Bayna-Lehkem and David II). Menyelek engineers a plot to take the Tabernacle of the Law of God (i.e., the Ark of the Covenant) to Ethiopia. This is done at the behest of an Angel of God who predicts the downfall of the kingdom of Solomon.
Comitted to writing in the fourteenth century, the Kebra Nagast was derived from Ethiopian oral traditions of the Queen of Sheba and her state marriage with Solomon. The Kebra Nagast has been cited as one of the sources of the Rastafarian movement because of its support of Ethiopian theocracy.

    What would happen if you were to allow everything to be exactly as it is? If you gave up the need for control, and instead embraced the whole of your experience in each moment that arose? In the 14 years that he studied Zen Buddhism, Adyashanti found that most seasoned meditators had used the practice as a means to a goal they never reached. Ultimately he realized that only when you let go of all techniques—even the concept of yourself as a meditator—will you open to the art of true meditation: dwelling in the natural state. True Meditation invites you to join the growing number of seekers who have been touched by the wisdom of Adyashanti to learn:How to make the "effortless effort" that will vivify the present moment• Meditative self-inquiry and The Way of Subtraction—how to ask a spiritually powerful question, and how to determine the real answer• Three guided meditations intended to reveal what Adyashanti calls your home as awareness itselfWe've been taught that awakening is difficult, explains Adyashanti, that to wake up from the illusion of separation takes years. But all it really takes is a willingness to look into the depths of your experience here and now. True Meditation gives you the opportunity to reclaim the original purpose of meditation—as a gateway to the objectless freedom of being.

    A Biblical Vision of Gender Identity 
    Since the beginning of humanity, people have recognized the distinct creation of the male and female gender in God's design. But with today's gender revolution, people are increasingly questioning who they are designed to be. In our society, gender identity has been divorced from biology and rerooted in psychology. Do the core teachings of the Bible uphold these modern ideas?
    In this concise booklet, Samuel Ferguson carefully and compassionately compares the core beliefs and practices of the transgender movement with fundamental truths expressed in Scripture. Ferguson argues human identity is not determined by the individual but is given to us by our Creator, who designed our bodies and minds with purpose and encourages us to live in Christlikeness—choosing the path of God-given transformation over man-made transition.

    The Fulfillment Framework is a powerful three-part seminar that reshapes how we read, understand, and interpret the Bible—through the prophetic lens of Christ-centered fulfillment. Rather than treating Scripture as a collection of disconnected stories, this course reveals the infrastructure beneath the text: a unified message built on prophecy, pattern, and purpose. 
    Mark John takes listeners on a journey through the Old and New Testaments, showing how every covenant, command, and shadow ultimately points to one central figure—Christ. This interpretive approach, grounded in biblical context and covenantal continuity, highlights not just what the Bible says, but how to rightly discern what it means. 
    In this seminar, you’ll learn: 
    * How prophecy and fulfillment form the backbone of biblical revelation 
    * Why Jesus is not just the subject of the New Testament, but the key to unlocking the Old 
    * Essential rules of interpretation (hermeneutics) that honor historical context and divine intent 
    * How themes, types, and symbols unfold across Scripture with consistent clarity 
    * A practical framework for reading the Bible as one unified story—from Genesis to Revelation 
    Whether you're a Bible teacher, a curious believer, or someone seeking a deeper, Christ-centered reading of Scripture, The Fulfillment Framework will equip you with the tools to see the Bible in a fresh way.
