Book Description
God delivered Israel from Egyptian bondage to captivate them for Himself. In the arid wilderness He planned to reveal His nature and ways to them, but they drew back. How different are we today? Many confess the Lordship of Jesus and acknowledge His saving power, yet like Israel, they've drawn back. Rather than pursuing His heart they have cleaved to this world's form of worship-the worship of self. As a result we have changed the image of Jesus to be like us. Fire can alter these images. The fire we need is found in the Holiness of God. God is calling us to draw nearer still...to tremble on Mt. Zion...transformed to touch others.

Helene Fischer is a professional killer who arrives in West Cumbria with instructions to shoot dead 12 people. She has two specific targets, the other ten are chosen at random. Accompanying Helene is Nasseem Ahmed, a computer hacker who is peculiarly averse to the sight of blood. The final shooting takes place at a kart circuit near Rowrah is clearly an example of world class marksmanship. Such precision convinces police that they are dealing with professionals. Henceforth, it all turns into a car-crash in more ways than one as investigations spread out to three different countries. Who has organised the hits?

Cleaning the DECEIVING HEART
Author: James Tarter
Publisher: Lulu.com
ISBN: 1329161777
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 98
Book Description
Biblically, the heart is the source of a person's behaviors, beliefs, thoughts, attitudes, desires, motives, and values. The heart is so important to who we are: our inner nature that is given a new body for our eternity in Jesus. God made the heart naturally stable by making it greatly fear getting changed. This is good, but also causes the heart to be very self-deceptive. If it needs to be cleaned, how can we proceed? This book shows the Biblical picture of the heart more fully, so that we can see ways for believers in Jesus to work with Him to clean our deceiving hearts for our eternity and for our close life-giving fellowship with God on earth. I gave two related books the same cover, so that readers can choose the best fit. Purifying the Heart puts solutions of heart-problems with their discussion: this complicates the picture of the heart. Destroying Spiritual Strongholds more fully explains this picture from the Bible, which is a harder introduction to this picture.

This book is about spiritual deceit the invisible enemy that has become a part of our nature. It is about that which is hidden in the hearts of man connecting him with the desires of his flesh.

This book reveals to us the blindness and influence that is the result of not accepting the fact that we must struggle spiritually in every area of our lives to overcome deceit and starting within. We can not accomplish this without the help of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

God hates deception even the practice of it for any reason. (Galatians 6:7, KJV)

Minding the Heart
Author: Saucy, Robert
Publisher: Kregel Publications
ISBN: 0825479908
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 292
Book Description
The heart is the most important biblical term for the person's nature and actions. Indeed, the heart is the control center of life. It is the very place where God works to change us. But how does this growth take place? How are Christians to discover the steadfast spirit of David's psalm? In Minding the Heart, Robert L. Saucy offers insightful instruction on what spiritual transformation is and how to achieve it. He shows how renewing one's mind through meditation, action, and community can begin the process of change, but ultimately the final change—the change that brings abundant life—can only come through a vital relationship with God. "The renewing of the heart is an inescapable human need," writes Saucy, "but the solution lies only within the realm of the divine." Drawing from inspiring Bible passages as well as selected scientific studies, Saucy demonstrates how to make lasting change so Christians can finally achieve the joys of becoming more like Christ.
