Book Description
A church member came up to me after a church service and said in the course of our conversation \"I hope I never live to see the last days of the church. I would like to just skip all the problems that generation will face.\" Many Church members when faced with the biblical subject of the last days feel the same way. To many churches have failed to prepare God's People for the end times. They have allowed fear and not faith to dominate their thinking or have taught them to believe they will never have to face such troubling times. Such preaching is failing not only the church but God himself. Much of the church is not ready for God's last shaking. But God does not have a \"Plan B.\" God is going to get his church ready. Already He is raising up \"prophetic voices\" that will awaken his church. This is the challenge and calling God has given me and church leaders around the world-\"get my people ready.\" The greatest days of the church are ahead and will reveal some of the greatest heroes of the church. As the Prophet Haggai predicted-God is going to \"shake once again the heavens and the earth\" to cause the nations to realize that the only stability in life is found in the Kingdom of God. The Lord is not going to allow 50% of the world's population to go quietly into hell. Scripture is clear that God is going to become \"audacious\" in manifesting the life and power of the Kingdom of God. He will raise up miraculous witnesses on prime time TV that even Antichrist can not touch. He will assign angels to publicly preach the gospel to every village and city in the world. Such audacious events will form the greatest climatic harvest wave in Church history. It is true that this amazing harvest will be accompanied by the worst persecution the church will ever experience. We must face this fact that there will be a generation of the church that will face this great test and it will be sooner rather than later. Yet Jesus has instructed us how to face this difficult time with faith and not fear. Such a season of \"redemptive suffering\" will produce the most glorious and victorious church ever seen in church history. This is the first book in a series called the LAST SHAKING. Book one will deal with the biblical truth of the great climatic harvest wave the church must prepare for. Book two will deal with the the coming \"Elijah Revival\"-the greatest worldwide revival the church will have ever seen. Book three will deal with a study of some of the most amazing apostolic strategies that can quickly and effectively disciple this climatic harvest wave. It will also deal with the essential need of \"church unity\" and the forming of end time \"Arks\" to gather the harvest into. This is a must read book to help adjust the thinking of church leadership towards the work of the church in the end times. God is ready to shake the nations while manifesting a life giving unshakable church. Satan will do his worst but God will do his best.

Shaking the World for Jesus
Author: Heather Hendershot
Publisher: University of Chicago Press
ISBN: 0226326802
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 267
Book Description
In 1999, the Reverend Jerry Falwell outed Tinky-Winky, the purple character from TV's Teletubbies. Events such as this reinforced in many quarters the common idea that evangelicals are reactionary, out of touch, and just plain paranoid. But reducing evangelicals to such caricatures does not help us understand their true spiritual and political agendas and the means they use to advance them. Shaking the World for Jesus moves beyond sensationalism to consider how the evangelical movement has effectively targeted Americans—as both converts and consumers—since the 1970s. Thousands of products promoting the Christian faith are sold to millions of consumers each year through the Web, mail order catalogs, and even national chains such as Kmart and Wal-Mart. Heather Hendershot explores in this book the vast industry of film, video, magazines, and kitsch that evangelicals use to spread their message. Focusing on the center of conservative evangelical culture—the white, middle-class Americans who can afford to buy "Christian lifestyle" products—she examines the industrial history of evangelist media, the curious subtleties of the products themselves, and their success in the religious and secular marketplace. To garner a wider audience, Hendershot argues, evangelicals have had to carefully temper their message. But in so doing, they have painted themselves into a corner. In the postwar years, evangelical media wore the message of salvation on its sleeve, but as the evangelical media industry has grown, many of its most popular products have been those with heavily diluted Christian messages. In the eyes of many followers, the evangelicals who purvey such products are sellouts—hucksters more interested in making money than spreading the word of God. Working to understand evangelicalism rather than pass judgment on it, Shaking the World for Jesus offers a penetrating glimpse into a thriving religious phenomenon.

The Non-Israelite Nations in the Book of the Twelve
Author: Daniel Timmer
Publisher: BRILL
ISBN: 900429841X
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 315
Book Description
In The Non-Israelite Nations in the Book of the Twelve Daniel Timmer offers the first comprehensive survey of the ‘nations’ in the Minor Prophets. The study approaches this important but highly diverse theme through the lens of conceptual coherence and demonstrates the interrelation of synchronic/holistic and diachronic/compositional approaches. After exploring the theme in each of the individual books of the Twelve and noting the varying degrees of coherence evident in each case, Timmer brings his findings to bear on contemporary understandings of the Twelve as a collection, arguing for the theme’s coherence across the collection on the basis of each book’s unique treatment of the nations.

When a Nation Forgets God
Author: Erwin W. Lutzer
Publisher: Moody Publishers
ISBN: 0802493319
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 161
Book Description
This excellent book is so important. It clearly and powerfully explains what the parallels are between Germany's fall from grace and the beginning of our own fall. - Eric Metaxas, author of Bonhoeffer: Pastor, Martyr, Prophet, Spy In When A Nation Forgets God, Erwin Lutzer studies seven similarities between Nazi Germany and America today—some of them chilling—and cautions us to respond accordingly. Engaging, well-researched, and easy to understand, Lutzer’s writing is that of a realist, one alarmed but unafraid. Amidst describing the messes of our nation’s government, economy, legal pitfalls, propaganda, and more, Lutzer points to the God who always has a plan. At the beginning of the twentieth Century, Nazi Germany didn’t look like a country on the brink of world-shaking terrors. It looked like America today. When a Nation Forgets God uses history to warn us of a future that none of us wants to see. It urges us to be ordinary heroes who speak up and take action.

The Hour of Our Nation's Agony
Author: William Cowper Nelson
Publisher: Univ. of Tennessee Press
ISBN: 9781572335677
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 372
Book Description
The Hour of Our Nation's Agony offers a revealing look into the life of a Confederate soldier as he is transformed by the war. Through these literate, perceptive, and illuminating letters, readers can trace Lt. William Cowper Nelson's evolution from an idealistic young soldier to a battle-hardened veteran. Nelson joined the army at the age of nineteen, leaving behind a close-knit family in Holly Springs, Mississippi. He served for much of the war in the Third Corps of Robert E. Lee's Army of Northern Virginia. By the end of the conflict, Nelson had survived many major battles, including Fredericksburg, Chancellorsville, Gettysburg, and the Wilderness, as well as the long siege of Petersburg. In his correspondence, Nelson discusses in detail the soldier's life, religion in the ranks, his love for and heartbreak at being separated from his family, and Southern identity. Readers will find his reflections on slavery, religion, and the Confederacy particularly revealing. Seeing and participating in the slaughter of other human beings overpowered Nelson's romantic idealism. He had long imagined war as a noble struggle of valor, selflessness, and glory. But the sight of wounded men with "blood streaming from their wounds," dying slow, lonely deaths showed Nelson the true nature of war. Nelson's letters reveal the conflicting emotions that haunted many soldiers. Despite his bitter hatred of the "ruthless invaders of our beloved South," the sight of wounded Union prisoners moved him to compassion. Nelson's ability to write about irreconcilable moments when he felt both kindness and cruelty toward the enemy with introspection, candor, and sensitivity makes The Hour of Our Nation's Agony more than just a collection of missives. Jennifer Ford places Nelson squarely in the middle of the historiographic debate over the degree of disillusionment felt by Civil War soldiers, arguing that Nelson-like many soldiers-was a complex individual who does not fit neatly into one interpretation. Jennifer W. Ford is head of special collections and associate professor at the J. D. Williams Library at the University of Mississippi, where the where the collection containing Lt. Nelson's letters and other family documents is held.
