What picture does the Bible paint about the future?
Many Christians are scared, worried and anxious about the future. They are in a spiritual fog and are baffled by the many prophecies and events of the end times and what they mean. They really do not know that the Bible has much to say about that future; in fact, one-fourth of the Bible is about prophecy and end time events. This book will provide insight into questions such as the following:
How does the panorama of prophecies and events fit together?What are all the various viewpoints of the future?What is my place in the future?What is prophecy?Who are God's chosen people?What are the prophecies concerning Israel?Will I live again after death?Are there covenants between God and Israel?Biblical prophecy and end times - are they understandable? What does Christ say in the Olivet Discourse about the future?Where are we in the flow of God's Plan for Humankind?This book will challenge you, will help you understand Biblical prophecy and end times, and will bring you hope that the future is fully ordered and will occur in a specific sequence as described in the Bible. It will help you develop a solid foundation on the future of God's Plan for Humankind.

This story grew out of an extended family system in rural Mississippi in the early 1940s. This occurred at a time when many black families were immigrating North. A young African American boy of age 18 months had the misfortune of being caught in the middle of squabble between his two parents who were desperately trying to escape the rigor of Southern plantation living that they were in. Finally, his mother was told by his father in no uncertain terms to just bring the girls to Detroit and leave the boys behind with their grandmother. This put such a strain on this young child that even after he had been potty trained, he eventually had to be put back in diapers.
Emerick has written an engaging and inspiring work that should appeal to both football fans and readers of Christian nonfiction.

The book explores the soul and how it projects to others. Two examples, Steve Jobs and Jesus Christ, are examined for what each did as an 'extreme entrepreneur,' to provide a position that has changed and will continue to change humankind. In his words, Steve Jobs provided technology that provide a 'bicycle for the mind,' putting complex technology in the hands of the non-technical masses. Jesus Christ converted living in fear to living in love as a way to tap the God within each of us.
This book explores the opportunities and the benefits of being a good neighbor and having good neighbors in personal and professional life. Two model examples are used, Mr. Rogers and Jesus Christ with explanations of characteristics, traits, and attitudes you can follow to improve your 'neighborhood.' The text provides excellent food for thought and action in our daily lives.
The book compares and contrasts the courage of two people, Martin Luther King, and Jesus Christ. Courage to stand up for individual freedom. Courage to not use violence as a means to an end. Courage to love all people, even enemies. Courage to spread the word to anyone who would listen.
This is the time of Christ's return. The book's object is to teach the readers what they must do to become Heaven-ready. The presented narrative will walk the reader through Daniel's seven-year Timeline including the emerging Antichrist, False Prophet, and the final battle between Satan and Him at Armageddon.
The story is about Zephaniah, a man named after a biblical author who proudly proclaims himself a Cushite in the Old Testament. The author uses italicized words from the Bible, so the reader is made aware of the racial identity of the biblical characters who wrote them.
As Zepha travels each town takes on the characteristics of one of the ten Sefirot. We can see how the levels affect what he will directly or indirectly experience, as we become part of the invisible hand that guides him toward self-awareness.
The towns are separated by 22 paths, weaving a road toward each Sefirot. These paths are named and numbered for the letters of the Hebrew Alphabet in an ancient Cabalistic system attributed to Abraham, the father of three religions and author of the Sefer Yetzirah.
In traveling these underground formations we acquire the knowledge of good and evil, as we learn that one character's good may be unfortunate for another. Conversations reveal inner complex realities only the reader is aware of. By getting inside each character, we gain insights into the spiritual and mystical understanding attributed to the Cabala.
The revelation of the African presence may bring a deeper enjoyment for those interested in astrology which was first described as a way to remember navigation and agriculture. For some, the numbered paths will elevate numerology when they see its connection to the Gematria.
Tarot readers will find solace in the borrowed wisdom from these ancient people who first wrote that the world was created when a breath formed a word.
Sometimes we believe we know enough about people. But everyone has sides and aspects that other people don't know and that, for whatever reason, they keep hidden. We can never know everything about people, even the ones we consider our closest friends.
