Book Description
The closed, secret world of matchmaking in contemporary Israel provides the titillating pivot for a story of uncommon proportions. In Ruchama King's skillful hands, Seven Blessings maps out the complicated lives of five expatriate women and men whose search for a soul mate, in many ways, mirrors their search for God. At the center of this fascinating novel is Beth, who at age thirty-nine longs to be married but despairs she ever will be. When she finally meets the man of her dreams, he has what she believes to be an insurmountable flaw. Can she overcome her repugnance in order to forge a new life? Binyamin, a talented painter and student, lacks the humility to identify a worthy wife. He strains the matchmakers' patience until his search for perfect love finally becomes ridiculous, even to himself. Tsippi and Judith, the matchmakers, are stumbling themselves, with marriages that need propping up. In this land of miracles, seeking the right match, whether between singles, husband and wife, student and teacher, or man and God, becomes a quest that opens the Bible to us in a new way. Rich characters, an intriguing setting, writing that offers unique nuances, and ultimately a story that keeps you turning the pages all combine to introduce a remarkable newcomer. Seven Blessings redefines the Jewish experience, with a story that will ring with truth for anyone who's ever considered getting married.

Genesis
Author: Arvle Cooper
Publisher: WestBow Press
ISBN: 1490863567
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 606
Book Description
The Book of Genesis is a book of beginnings. It contains Gods promise of a safe end for us all; the promise that we can base our lives upon and it contains the knowledge of good versus evil. The goal of this book is to bring us a better understanding of Gods Word; to help us realize the peace and the love that comes with giving God first place in our hearts through our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. When God created this world, He knew what would happen. He knew that man would sin. But God wanted to give us freedom of choice. He wants a family that loves Him and wants to be with Him. Thats why He put a plan in place to help us overcome the penalty of sin. Gods Word, and the study of books like this, help us to grow stronger in the knowledge of Him. The more that we understand, the more we will tend to make Jesus Lord over. As you read this, you will come to understand how to walk in faith instead of fear. You will also come to know God through Jesus in a greater and more understanding way.

3 1-2 Days to Forever
Author: B. Craig Moore
Publisher: Fulton Books, Inc.
ISBN:
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 258
Book Description
3 1/2 Days to Forever is the book that unlocks the secrets of the identity of Mystery Babylon which are hidden in the name and number (666) of the beast, all the while proving the meaning of the rapture. The sum total of which is written in a sealed timeline until now. Daniel the prophet and John the apostle both saw it, and understood it, and now it is time for you to know it. The Bible, the whole Bible is a clock which proves our story. This world's days as we know them come to their end. It is time for you to drop your religion and believe what God has been saying all this time. A story, the same story, written from the beginning (Genesis) to the end (Revelation). All having the same purpose. A proving of whose image will still be standing when the smoke clears. Remember, this is not an allegory this is literal. The sixth trump nuclear war comes (soon), the first of three great end-time battles that will end mankind's reign as kings with dominion over this earth. Know this, the name and the number of the beast are here right now. Be warned. Noah was a preacher of righteousness who proclaimed the end was coming, and no one believed him. Read this book and believe what the Bible says because when Jesus (the Bible) says something, it means something that makes sense, something that affects the whole world. When you understand who's who and who the witnesses are, everything becomes clear. 3 1/2 Days to Forever proves the Bible's timeline and reveals the final reasons this piece of the master (the Bible) was given to mankind. And that reason is so that we can all know when the Holy One of God will return. Not the day and hour but a specific timeline to things past, present, and future. We are the timekeepers.
