Sinossi

This brief introduction surveys Christian thinking on an array of topics related to security and peace from a just war perspective. Drawing primarily on Scripture and theology, Eric Patterson explores the moral dimensions of order, justice, and peace in light of key Christian doctrines such as love of neighbor, stewardship, vocation, and sphere sovereignty. He also examines the perennial questions of civil disobedience, terrorism, revolution, and holy war (including a discussion of Israel's removal of the Canaanites and the Crusades) and interacts with theological thinkers throughout Christian history. The volume concludes with a treatment of punishment and restitution, considering how these can help move a society toward conciliation. 
 
While ideal as a textbook for courses on Christian ethics, theology and politics, and church and society, this book will also appeal to pastors and lay readers questioning the morality of war and Christians' involvement in force. Christians who serve in government, law enforcement, and the military will also find helpful guidance for thinking theologically about their vocations.

    What is God saying to you in your dreams
     
    Your Dream Directory is a beginner's guide to understanding the true source of our dreams, dream classifications, and even dream symbols.Dreams are a series of thoughts, images, or emotions that occur during sleep. It is an activity observed or enacted in one's sleep and impressed in one's memory so that when you wake up, it will be vividly remembered. If you forget your dreams, or think you do not dream at all, or dream but do not know the right prayers to pray, you may face great loss, sudden disaster or abortion of divine provisions.
     
    This book answers questions like:
     
    *Can we control our dreams?* What is the meaning of my dreams?* How do I handle dreams I have forgotten?* How do I pray when I forget my dreams?* I used to dream all the time. Why has my dream life suddenly ceased?* Should I pray for the gift of dream interpretation?* What does it mean if I see people in my dreams who have already passed away?* When do I share a dream I've received and when do I keep it to myself?* Why should I pay attention to my children's dreams?* The prayers to pray when you dream and forget or fail to interpret rightly
     
    There are dozens of mentions of dreams in the Bible. From Abraham to Joseph, from Daniel to Pontius Pilot's wife, God has communicated with His people through dreams throughout recorded history.Why would God choose to speak to us while we sleep? Perhaps it's because we are too distracted during the day to sit still long enough for Him to share the deep secrets of His heart.Prayer Madueke is convinced God speaks to us in very personal ways. At times he may use pictures, memories, impressions, or even a still small voice.This book is everyone's book because dream is common to all people,rich, poor, and people from all race in all the countries of the world, welcome to your dream directory!!

    Preface 
    The season of rising and falling is a period of setback. The enemy has placed some embargo of progress against many. They cannot rise. They cannot complete their tasks. They cannot marry. They cannot achieve their God-given destiny. 
    This spirit can make a man succeed today and fail many times tomorrow. People affected by these demons have a problem with stable progress and finances. It is either they are rich today and poor tomorrow. So the circle evolves until there is a need for deliverance. 
    Rising and falling is an evil spiritual manipulation designed to make a person fail and abandon his project. It is the spiritual work to destroy the glory of a man and make him useless in his marriage, career, business, spiritual life, health, and finances. 
     
    Are you experiencing these following symptoms?Profitless hard laborUntold hardship and sufferingSpending money extravagantlyOppression and suppressionDisappointment and frustrationBlockage to blessingsProcrastinationPoverty and lackStagnation and embargoNightmaresMarital managementOff and on blessingsSorrow and setbacksLack of help from God and manDemotionSack from workBlaming peopleBad luckFinancial and marital problemUnexplainable hatred and rejectionSelling off properties graduallyQuarreling between husband  and wifeJoblessness spiritBorrowing without no money to payFrustration that leads to police case or arrestTerminal sicknessCobwebs attackMasturbationAnger

They will enable you to have unusual revelations that will give you a new direction in life and all closed doors against you will open, in Jesus name!

    Are You Ready To Give Your Words The Power To Change Your Life?
     
    Job Said Have You Commanded The Morning Since Your Days Began, And Caused The Dawn To Know Its Place!
     
    "Death and life are in the power of the tongue and those who love it will eat the fruit of it" - Proverbs 18:21.
     
    "By thy words, thou shalt be justified, and by thy words, thou shalt be condemned." - Matthew 12:37.
     
    "Thou shalt also decree a thing, and it shall be established unto thee: and the light shall shine upon thy ways." - Job 22:28.
     
    In this book, Command the Morning, Day, and Night, we were given biblical counsel on how to take charge of our morning, day, and night to control our environments. Commanding your morning, day or night is to exercise authority or giving command invested upon believers by God, to say what will stand without negotiation, compromise, or prior agreement. The command creates barriers to frustrate everything satanic and wicked people do. Evil decrees or commands from agents of Satan can be reversed, but commands from God and his saints cannot be reversed without God's permission. Believers command can make or unmake things, kill or give life. All creatures were created by God's command, believers are authorized and empowered by God to imitate Him.
     
    This book provides you with biblical cutting-edge counsel and powerful declarations that will guide you in commanding your morning, day, and night. A closed mouth is a closed destiny!!
