Book Description
How many different views of the end-time Bible passages have you heard? Are the gospel accounts about the end-times only talking about Jesus's second coming, or do they include information on the rapture? What exactly happens when the rapture takes place? What happens to Fido, my cat, in the rapture event? What kind of body does my dad in heaven have right now if he doesn't get one until the rapture? Just how many resurrections are there? How can I know I'll be going up in the rapture to be with Jesus? And then there's the Ezekiel 38 and 39 war...the Gog/Magog war. How many different views have you sat through for that one? How many times has someone said there has to be a gap between the rapture and start of the tribulation for God to account for the Psalms 83 and the Gog/Magog wars? And what about Psalms 83...is it a war or a prayer? Are you tired of the unanswered questions or being told we can never know for sure? Then stop and read this book. Allow the words to, with prayer through the power of the Holy Spirit, walk you through the Scriptures to provide real answers to all the different prophetic teachings. You don't have to be confounded about these end-time questions anymore. I hope you're as blessed by God reading this book as much as I was by writing it. See you in the clouds...soon!

Our Separate Ways
Author: Ella L. J. Bell Smith
Publisher: Harvard Business Press
ISBN: 1633697568
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 358
Book Description
In Our Separate Ways, authors Ella Bell and Stella Nkomo take an unflinching look at the surprising differences between black and white women's trials and triumphs on their way up the corporate ladder. Based on groundbreaking research that spanned eight years, Our Separate Ways compares and contrasts the experiences of 120 black and white female managers in the American business arena. In-depth histories bring to life the women's powerful and often difficult journeys from childhood to professional success, highlighting the roles that gender, race, and class played in their development. Although successful professional women come from widely diverse family backgrounds, educational experiences, and community values, they share a common assumption upon entering the workforce: "I have a chance." Along the way, however, they discover that people question their authority, challenge their intelligence, and discount their ideas. And while gender is a common denominator among these women, race and class are often wedges between them. In Our Separate Ways, you will find candid discussions about stereotypes, learn how black women's early experiences affect their attitudes in the business world, become aware of how white women have--perhaps unwittingly--aligned themselves more often with white men than with black women, and see ways that our country continues to come to terms with diversity in all of its dimensions. Whether you are a human resources director wondering why you're having trouble retaining black women, a white female manager considering the role of race in your office, or a black female manager searching for perspectives, you will find fresh insights about how black and white women's struggles differ and encounter provocative ideas for creating a better workplace environment for everyone.

Healing and the Laying on of Hands
Author: Phillip E. Hopp
Publisher: Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
ISBN: 9781542536790

Languages : en
Pages : 130
Book Description
Is divine healing by the laying on of hands the privilege and right of every believer today?What is the "gift of laying on of hands?"What is falling down and being "slain in the Spirit" mean?Is laying on of hands used to cast out demons?What is the doctrine of apostolic succession by laying on of hands? These important questions as well as many others noted Bible teacher and author Phillip E. Hopp addresses and answers in his seminal book "Healing and the Laying on of Hands." Intended for ministers and lay-students of the Bible alike, "Healing and the Laying on of Hands" is an in-depth and scholarly look into the biblical origins and historical applications of the laying on of hands for healing, spiritual authority and Baptism (or filling) in the Holy Spirit. It is arguably the most comprehensive and intelligent analysis ever written on the subject of laying on of hands. As the consuming Pentecostal flame of the Holy Spirit is kindled and breaks forth into renewed power and anointing upon our generation, clothed in the glittering garments of great signs, miracles and wonders, there will be an increased need in the Body of Christ to understand this fundamental doctrine of the Church. Long regarded as the "Queen of the Gifts of the Holy Spirit" by some, laying on of hands is, when properly understood and ministered in faith, fragrant and rich with spiritual blessing for every believer. "Healing and the Laying on of Hands" cleaves asunder some of the fundamental errors and misconceptions of this important doctrine of the Church.

Approaches to Teaching Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings and Other Works
Author: Leslie A. Donovan
Publisher: Modern Language Association
ISBN: 1603292071
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 403
Book Description
A philologist and medieval scholar, J. R. R. Tolkien never intended to write immensely popular literature that would challenge traditional ideas about the nature of great literature and that was worthy of study in colleges across the world. He set out only to write a good story, the kind of story he and his friends would enjoy reading. In The Hobbit and in The Lord of the Rings, Tolkien created an entire world informed by his vast knowledge of mythology, languages, and medieval literature. In the 1960s, his books unexpectedly gained cult status with a new generation of young, countercultural readers. Today, the readership for Tolkien's absorbing secondary world--filled with monsters, magic, adventure, sacrifice, and heroism--continues to grow. Part 1 of this volume, "Materials," introduces instructors to the rich array of resources available for teaching Tolkien, including editions and criticism of his fiction and scholarship, historical material on his life and times, audiovisual materials, and film adaptations of his fiction. The essays in part 2, "Approaches," help instructors introduce students to critical debates around Tolkien's work, its sources, its influence, and its connection to ecology, religion, and science. Contributors draw on interdisciplinary approaches to outline strategies for teaching Tolkien in a wide variety of classroom contexts.

Thy Kingdom Come
Author: R. J. Rushdoony
Publisher: Chalcedon Foundation
ISBN:
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 170
Book Description
First published in 1970, this book helped spur the modern rise of postmillennialism. Revelation's details are often perplexing, even baffling, and yet its main meaning is clear: it is a book about victory. It tells us that our faith can only result in victory. "This is the victory that overcomes the world, even our faith" (1 John 5:4). This is why knowing Revelation is so important. It assures us of our victory and celebrates it. Genesis 3 tells us of the fall of man into sin and death. Revelation gives us man's victory in Christ over sin and death. The vast and total victory, in time and eternity, set forth by John in Revelation is too important to bypass. This victory is celebrated in Daniel and elsewhere in the Bible. We are not given a Messiah who is a loser. These eschatological texts make clear that the essential good news of the entire Bible is victory, total victory.
