Book Description
Jesus the Master Builder kept me up all night. Few books have that power.' -- Jonathan Glancey, The Guardian Did Jesus visit Britain? The activities of Jesus before the start of his ministry at the age of thirty have been the subject of much speculation. Did he travel beyond the bounds of Palestine in his search for wisdom knowledge? Where did he acquire the great learning which amazed those who heard him preaching and enabled him to cross swords in debate with Scribes and Pharisees? A number of legends suggest that Jesus travelled to the British Isles with Joseph of Arimathea, who worked in the tin trade. With these legends as his starting point, Gordon Strachan uncovers a fascinating network of connections between the Celtic world and Mediterranean culture and philosophy. Taking the biblical image of Wisdom as the 'master craftsman', Strachan explores the deep layers of Mystery knowledge shared between the Judaic-Hellenic world and the northern Druids -- from the secret geometry of masons and builders, which Jesus would have encountered in his work as a craftsman in Palestine, to the Gematria or number coding of the Old and New Testaments. This book is the basis of the film documentary 'And Did Those Feet'.

Book Description
To be a wise Master Builder you need to be a kingdom leader. And to lead in the kingdom and walk in kingdom authority, you need to know how to use the keys to the kingdom that Jesus gave us. The Lord disclosed to me what I would consider to be the "key of keys" for kingdom leadership. He said, "If My leaders want to walk in the authority of the Lion, they need to walk in the meekness of the Lamb."

Pages : 142
Book Description
Before Jesus was a teacher and a healer-before his life changed the world - he was a carpenter. Woodworking was his occupation for most of his time on earth, and the years he spent in Jospeh's shop clearly shaped his message and ministry. Now, by gaining an understanding of first-century carpentry, you can see how Jesus rebuilt broken people and constructed a new world. His workmanship still amazes all who put themselves in his hands, and his principles for constructing a solid life are as relevant today as they were two thousand years ago.

The Secret Code of the King James Bible
Author: Abdullahi Mubarak
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 1479751251
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 352
Book Description
This book, I believe, for the first time reveals knowledge that has been buried in the Bible under a secret code. There have been many attempts to uncover this code, and all previous attempts have contributed in a positive way to this writing. The book is my personal contribution to improvement of mankind through the acknowledgment of the truth and the defeat of falsehood. I am not, though, writing this with rose-colored glasses. There will always be those who hate the Truth for personal worldly gains, those who take comfort in falsehood, those who would follow blindly what their ancestors believed (true or false), those who worship at the altar of their base desires, and those who benefit from evil in the world. The ultimate victory of Truth over falsehood is with God Almighty, and I wish that the reader is guided to the Truth. This book is also a way to thank God Almighty for guiding me away from falsehood, and this book is for others like me.

Disciples' Literal New Testament
Author: Michael Magill
Publisher: Reyma Publishing
ISBN: 9781937368036
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 476
Book Description
If You Love God's Word You Will Love This New Testament! The Disciples' Literal New Testament sets you free from our artificial 460 year old chapter and verse structure, replacing it with paragraphing that reflects the flow of thought in the original Greek writings. Paragraph headings make that flow of thought explicit to you, speeding your understanding of the NT books. This translation retains the writing style of the apostles themselves, rather than transforming their Greek ways of writing into an elegant or contemporary English writing style, as has been beautifully done so many times. It is the same translation as the author's New Testament TransLine, first published by Zondervan in 2002. Now you can read the New Testament as the original writers intended it, and see it with a clarity formerly available only to those who could carefully study their Greek New Testament. You can even see the difference in writing style between Matthew, Mark and Luke! Used along with your standard Bible version, you will profit from both methods of translation. *Easily grasp the relationship of the whole and the parts of each book with the big-picture overview outlines that use the words of the original author. *Gain quick insight into the flow of thought from descriptive paragraph headings that summarize the main point of each paragraph in its context. *You can visually follow the apostles' thinking because the 'Intelligent Paragraphing' visually displays their main and subordinate thoughts. *The hindrance to your understanding caused by our artificial chapter and verse structure is eliminated by paragraphing based on the Greek writings. *You will more fully appreciate the minds and thinking patterns and intent of the original writers because the translation corresponds more closely to their words and their grammar and their sentence structure. *Deepen and expand your understanding of the New Testament by meditating on the notes containing alternative renderings, explanations of what is being said, and different views of the meaning.

The Wise Masterbuilder Series
Author: Pastor J. Harold Martin
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 1456809881
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 291
Book Description
Pastor Martin began his ministry work at Crenshaw Christi an Center in Los Angeles, CA where he was Born Again in 1975. In 1977 his training was completed as a Counselor and in the years that followed, many were counseled in the Word of God, in the area of receiving Christ as savior, receiving the Holy Spirit, Assurance of Salvation and Basic Christian Doctrine. These “mini-teaching sessions were invaluable in providing a foundation of Christian stair steps to maturity.” In 1980 Mr. Martin enrolled at Confi rmed Word Christian Bible College and was first Ordained in 1982 at his home church in Los Angeles: Song of Solomon Ministries. As Associate Pastor and Administrator of The Evangelistic Rescue Ministries, Pastor Marti n was Ordained again in 1987. A wise Evangelist advised me to get Paperwork from several organizations because you never know when you will be in a remote area of the world where people will only honor paperwork from their own, he said. In 1992 Pastor Martin worked with the regional outreach of RTV (Reclaiming the Valley) and as a team member, ordained many who sought training and supervision through RTV, at which point he was ordained again through RTV since their paperwork was recognized in many regions of the world. In the early period of the 1990’s Pastor Martin was elected Chairman of the Local Concerts of Prayer, a worldwide prayer movement with a highly successful branch in Pasadena. Not long after a term as Press coordinator With the March for Jesus (a worldwide march of millions), Pastor Marti n became Chairman of the Board of Harvest-Time Ministries, Inc. in Pasadena, and then Associate Pastor at Grace Community Bible Church. Pastor Martin is also a teacher-on-staff at CBI (Christian Bible Institute), a Bible teaching college with satellite campuses across Los Angeles.
