Sinopse

"Angels and Demons" explores the diverse representations of these supernatural beings across religions and cultures, revealing their profound influence on ethical frameworks, social structures, and individual beliefs. The book examines theological definitions alongside their pervasive presence in art, literature, and folklore. 

 
One intriguing fact is how portrayals of angels and demons reflect a culture's core values and anxieties. Another is the evolution of these figures from ancient mythology to contemporary interpretations, demonstrating their enduring relevance. 

 
The book begins by introducing foundational concepts from various religious texts, then explores their evolution across historical periods and regions. Major sections cover origins and early interpretations, their roles in Abrahamic religions, and cultural manifestations in art and popular culture. 

 
The book uniquely connects religious studies, art history, and psychology to provide a holistic understanding of these entities. This approach illuminates how belief systems, cultural expressions, and human psychology intertwine.

    The kingdom of God is a profit-driven business, not simply a charitable organization or a non-profit business. Jesus presented the kingdom of God as a profitable business in all of his messages. The kingdom of God is a place to work for God, not just a place of begging God for something. God gives every believer equal opportunity to work in His kingdom. The very reason we are here on earth is to fulfil God’s mandate of expanding His kingdom on earth. However, the Kingdom of God must involve in our lives before we involve in God’s kingdom business. The kingdom of God must shape our lives before we get involved in God’s kingdom business. One qualifies to do business in the kingdom of God if personally admitted to the Kingdom of God by being born again. The book draws Biblical examples of people who effectively used their God given talents to work in the Kingdom of God and those who missed the opportunity in the kingdom of God by wasting their God given talents. 
    About the Author 
    Solomon Hailu, Ph.D. is a full Professor of Political Science at Oral Roberts University, Tulsa, Oklahoma. He has extensively published books and journal articles in the areas of International Politics and the Kingdom of God.

    Life often feels like a battlefield — a place where we face unseen forces, unexpected challenges, and overwhelming fears. Yet, in the midst of it all, God has provided a powerful promise of safety, favor, and peace under His wings. Psalm 91:4 declares, “He shall cover you with His feathers, and under His wings you shall take refuge; His truth shall be your shield and buckler.” This verse is more than poetry; it is a living assurance that we are never alone, never unprotected, and never without hope.

    How Sanctification Transforms Christians Into Glorified Beings
    Facing sin, suffering, and an uncertain future, it's easy to become pessimistic, but believers in Christ know the best is yet to come. God promises that one day he will redeem his image bearers and renew the earth. Few books are written on the doctrine of glorification, but its promise of restoration brings urgent hope for Christ followers.
    In this addition to the Short Studies in Systematic Theology series, Graham A. Cole examines the concept of divine glory as well as God's plan for redeeming individual believers, the church, and the universe. Identifying two phases of glorification—one in this life and a final transformation into Christlikeness—Cole defines the role of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit in the sanctification process. Through careful study of Scripture, he shows Christians how their future identity as glorified beings should impact their perspective today.
    
    - Thoughtful and Theological: Walks through the plotline of Scripture to explain redemptive history, the Trinitarian work of glorification, and the future of unbelievers
    - Thorough Introduction: Studies the Old and New Testaments to explain God's divine glory, including the stories of Moses, Isaiah, and Ezekiel, as well as the topics of creation, the incarnation, transfiguration of Jesus, and the picture of the new earth in Revelation
    - Great for Theologians, Pastors, and Students: This concise study dives deep into an overlooked area of eschatology and includes suggested resources for further reading

    FBI Special Agent Grace Billingsley tracks serial killers, using her skills as a psychiatrist and behavioral analyst to get dangerous people off the street and safely behind bars. But prison psychiatrist Sam Monroe knows that just because a killer is incarcerated doesn't mean they're not a threat. His own father, Peter, is a serial killer—in prison but certainly not out of Sam's life, as much as he wishes he was. 
     
     
     
    When bodies start showing up with Peter's MO, Sam and Grace are both called in to consult. They've met before—and though Grace thought they'd made a real connection, Sam ghosted her. They'll have to get past the awkwardness and mistrust to solve this case—especially because it's about to get personal. 
     
     
     
    USA Today bestselling author Lynette Eason doesn't give you time to catch your breath in this breakneck race to stop a serial killer.
