Book Description
Excerpt from The Graven Palm: A Manual of the Science of Palmistry In presenting this volume to the public, I crave their kind indulgence for all its imperfections, asking them only to reserve their opinion of it until they have carefully read from cover to cover. I have tried to express myself as clearly and simply as possible, and I think that, if the pictures are studied attentively in the sequence in which they are placed (not looked at haphazard), my readers will find that Palmistry is a Science, though as yet an inexact one, and meant, if interpreted rightly, to be a guide and assistance to us on our journey through life. I doubt whether I should ever have attempted to write a book at all had I not received so much encouragement from many clever and well-known persons, amongst them the late Sir Walter Besant, who assured me that he believed a book of mine would be well received by many. I should also like to take this opportunity of thanking my many friends and clients for their kindness to me during the nineteen years I have been a professional.

Radical
Author: David Platt
Publisher: Multnomah
ISBN: 1601422210
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 242
Book Description
New York Times bestseller What is Jesus worth to you? It's easy for American Christians to forget how Jesus said his followers would actually live, what their new lifestyle would actually look like. They would, he said, leave behind security, money, convenience, even family for him. They would abandon everything for the gospel. They would take up their crosses daily... But who do you know who lives like that? Do you? In Radical, David Platt challenges you to consider with an open heart how we have manipulated the gospel to fit our cultural preferences. He shows what Jesus actually said about being his disciple--then invites you to believe and obey what you have heard. And he tells the dramatic story of what is happening as a "successful" suburban church decides to get serious about the gospel according to Jesus. Finally, he urges you to join in The Radical Experiment -- a one-year journey in authentic discipleship that will transform how you live in a world that desperately needs the Good News Jesus came to bring.

The Three Bibles
Author: Various Authors
Publisher: Good Press
ISBN:
Category : Bibles
Languages : en
Pages : 8615
Book Description
Good Press presents to you this unique edition of 3 most influential and important English versions of the Bible: "King James Version" is an English translation of the Christian Bible for the Church of England, commissioned in 1604 and completed in 1611 under the sponsorship of James VI and I. The books of the King James Version include the 39 books of the Old Testament, an intertestamental section containing 14 books of the Apocrypha, and the 27 books of the New Testament. James gave the translators instructions intended to ensure that the new version would conform to the ecclesiology — and reflect the episcopal structure — of the Church of England and its belief in an ordained clergy. Noted for its "majesty of style", the King James Version has been described as one of the most important books in English culture and a driving force in the shaping of the English-speaking world. "Douay–Rheims Version" is a translation of the Bible from the Latin Vulgate into English made by members of the English College, Douai, in the service of the Catholic Church. The New Testament portion was published in Reims, France, with extensive commentary and notes, while The Old Testament portion was published by the University of Douai. Marginal notes take up the bulk of the volume and have a strong polemical and patristic character. They offered insights on issues of translation, and on the Hebrew and Greek source texts of the Vulgate. "World English Bible" is an updated revision of the American Standard Version Bible (1901). This translation is one of the few English-language Bibles translated to be understood by most English-speakers worldwide. This version of the Bible incudes the main 66 books of the Old and New Testaments which are recognized as Scripture by all true Christians.
