Book Description
Many people never bother to find out what God's plan for their lives is. Rather they blindly and hastily pursue their personal ambition. But the truth is that God will not support you in a mission He has not sent you. As a result, many are building on a faulty foundation while others are busy erecting faulty foundations for their generations yet unborn. All these have consequences. Foreskin Dowry takes an incisive look at the effects of these actions on our foundation and teaches what we must do and the kind of prayers we must pray in order to overcome the ugly consequences.

The Amusing Bible
Author: Arthur Tovmasyan
Publisher: iUniverse
ISBN: 1491761946
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 525
Book Description
Another consideration, which just logically unfolds is that apparently, God had an ulterior motive, and he was eventually glad for the fall of man. Basically, the man had the right to tell him: My dear Daddy-God! If I am not mistaken, the good is what you like and what is morally good, and the bad, on the contrary, is all that is bad and all that you do not like. Is it like that or not? That is right, my son, would have answered the Creator. In this case, could continue Adam, let me know what is wrong, so that I could avoid it. Otherwise, why is this tree here, if I cannot touch it? However, instead of God, the priests concealing themselves under his name give answers. They say, God put our newborn humanity to a test. God wanted to see if Adam would obey, when he requires minor hardships from him. However, this statement is easily disproved. According to theological imaginations, God is all-knowing and he knows the future. Therefore, he should have foreseen what would happen, because nothing is done without his will. This means that God himself wanted the people whom he created to sin. There is no doubt in that.

Pages : 229
Book Description
Today, there is a lot of discussion in Christian circles about brokenness. Most of the discussion views it as a negative to be overcome through Christ. The Beauty of the End-Time Bride: Brokenness takes a very different approach. Psalm 51:17 says there is a brokenness that God desires from you as a sacrifice, namely a broken heart and spirit.

Through reading this book, you will examine in depth little-explored issues that affect how you live a God-pleasing life. When was the last time you questioned how the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil governs your life today? You will then see how this mostly overlooked spiritual truth empowers deeper exploration of well-known themes like dying to the flesh. Right now, if this brokenness talk sounds like a downer, dont worry. You can discover how its the key to unlocking the full potential of the Bibles wonderful promises to us.Catch the vision of a much bigger reality to Christian life than we have previously known.

Women and Crime
Author: Judith Ann Warner
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing USA
ISBN:
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 201
Book Description
Drawing on government data and interdisciplinary expertise, this timely book seeks to explain why the changing economic and legal status of women has not reduced the gender gap in criminal offending. Women and Crime: A Reference Handbook examines how women's patterns of offending have changed over time in America, from the Colonial period to the present. The book sets the stage with a historical overview of women's criminal activity. Subsequent chapters cover such topics as changes in women's status and patterns of offending; the impact of childhood abuse on the development of criminality; and how changes in law, the War on Drugs, and other crime policy have, in fact, increased the frequency of women's imprisonment and arrests. International issues, such as legalization of prostitution, sex trafficking, and women's involvement in organized crime, including drug cartels, are also explored. Each chapter examines theory, research, law, policy, and key players in the evolving response to women's crime patterns. Throughout the work, the author links women's status, victimization, and offending patterns, and suggests how crime control policy, far from saving women, is increasingly making it impossible for female offenders to live on the outside.
