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.

Book Description
My book is about the following: —My mother going into the hospital and literally dying 3 times and returning each time to this world. —Growing up with extreme allergies —An angel that appeared as a nurse in the Intensive Care Unit; she had a last question to relay to my mother. —The inside of an asthma inhaler (canister) that somehow popped out of the outside plastic holder. It had a special number on it when found on a special holiday. —The “warnings” of The Book of Revelation and wondering if I had said anything during my mother’s eulogy that could have caused me to be cursed, due to the serious eye problems I began having after the funeral. I had seen over a dozen ophthalmologists over the next five years. —Again, my asthma inhaler canister has a very special number at a very significant religious time. —A very special cat that I considered my “pal” and “buddy”. He lived to be about 105 or 110 years in human years. —The scene on the cover of this book which shows the top of the trees that turned “gold” and the “RAINBOW” that all appeared within minutes of each other the day Wheatie-Boy passed on. —Calling my oldest brother to see if he minded me writing a Christian book at this time. He did not mind. Then, minutes later wondering if God wanted me to write a book. Within about 15 minutes of getting off the phone with my brother; the phone rang and it was a representative of WestBow Publishing Company wanting to know if I was currently writing or contemplating writing any Christian books; I had contacted them 2 years and one month before. —Other miraculous signs that made me feel very blessed. —22 critically important topics with applicable Bible verses bolded. PRAISE JESUS, YAHWEH, AND THE HOLY GHOST!

Book Description
Most of us are regular people who have good days and bad days. Our lives are radically ordinary and unexciting. That means they're the kind of lives God gets excited about. While the world worships beauty and power and wealth, God hides his glory in the simple, the mundane, the foolish, working in unawesome people, things, and places.In our day of celebrity worship and online posturing, this is a refreshing, even transformative way of understanding God and our place in his creation. It urges us to treasure a life of simplicity, to love those whom the world passes by, to work for God's glory rather than our own. And it demonstrates that God has always been the Lord of the cross--a Savior who hides his grace in unattractive, inglorious places.Your God Is Too Glorious reminds readers that while a quiet life may look unimpressive to the world, it's the regular, everyday people that God tends to use to do his most important work.

Book Description
The symbolism of the Book of Revelation from the Bible is made clear. This helps to get an accurate view of the "big-picture" before jumping to mis-founded conclusions, or incorrect interpretations. Very well researched using the Bible, and the root meanings of the Greek & Hebrew words from which the English words were translated. The book is well written, and both fun & gripping to read.

Book Description
Did Jesus claim to be the "bridegroom"? If so, what did he mean by this claim? When Jesus says that the wedding guests should not fast "while the bridegroom is with them" (Mark 2:19), he is claiming to be a bridegroom by intentionally alluding to a rich tradition from the Hebrew Bible. By eating and drinking with "tax collectors and other sinners," Jesus was inviting people to join him in celebrating the eschatological banquet. While there is no single text in the Hebrew Bible or the literature of the Second Temple Period which states the "messiah is like a bridegroom," the elements for such a claim are present in several texts in Isaiah, Jeremiah, and Hosea. By claiming that his ministry was an ongoing wedding celebration he signaled the end of the Exile and the restoration of Israel to her position as the Lord's beloved wife. This book argues that Jesus combined the tradition of an eschatological banquet with a marriage metaphor in order to describe the end of the Exile as a wedding banquet.
