Book Description
Some of the most interesting and debated entities in the Bible are the Sons of GOD in the sixth chapter of the book of Genesis. I certainly agree they are interesting and the subject of much debate, but I believe they are more than that. I believe who and what they are can have a great effect upon one's understanding of the rest of the Bible. I understand that who and what these entities are is not a salvation issue, but it is an extremely important one. The devil is the great deceiver (John 8:44). It is his goal to deceive every man, woman and child he can. I believe having the incorrect understanding of these Sons of GOD can make people vulnerable to one of his greatest deceptions. That is why I wrote this book. As I said, this is a hotly debated subject, but I do not think the Bible is unclear about their identity. The issue is... Well, you'll need to read the book for that. I hope you are blessed by reading it.

Book Description
An idea becomes truly comprehensible, Leo Tolstoy once wrote, only when it gives us the feeling that we know it already, by heart, and were simply recalling it. This was how he felt about the amazing story of Incarnation. 'It all seemed so familiar. It seemed that I had known it all long ago, and that I had only forgotten it.' Sometimes we feel that way too. When we read or hear these reflections about the divine presence within all of us, about the holiness of our hearts, about the wonder of our bodies, it is not completely new. We have always carried that wisdom within us. We simply need to read and hear it, to be reminded of it. The purpose of these reflections is to reveal 'the dearest freshness deep down things', to disclose the secret of turning your life around, and of living more freely and more abundantly. Unmasking God reveals the intimate and liberating presence of the divine heart in ours, already waiting and hoping to be discovered at every moment, and in every experience of each new day. But usually we must dig persistently through the rubble of our lives before the beautiful gold surrenders itself. It is then that everything changes. We recover our lost happiness, our lost laughter. We begin to really live again. And so do those around us.

Inside the Atheist Mind
Author: Anthony DeStefano
Publisher: Thomas Nelson
ISBN: 0718080599
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 234
Book Description
"There is only one way to deal with bullies, even in this politically correct world—and that is to crush them." USA Today bestselling author Anthony DeStefano is tired of playing nice. After years of responding patiently and agreeably to the pseudo-intellectual arguments and tactics of today’s militant atheists, he’s had enough. In this entertaining, no-holds-barred retort to atheism and its proponents, DeStefano reveals the intellectual bankruptcy at atheism’s core and equips believers to respond to its hollow arguments. A witty and devastating takedown of the "new atheist" position, Inside the Atheist Mind systematically debunks the theories of Richard Dawkins, Christopher Hitchens, Sam Harris, and others, revealing how inconsistent, illogical, and frankly ludicrous their conclusions truly are. Poking fun at atheists in a clever and intelligent way, DeStefano demonstrates just how full of holes the new atheism is and reveals that it is actually a "religion" of its own, complete with a creed, a set of commandments and sacraments, and a rigid moral code with rewards and punishments. More than that, DeStefano exposes that atheism is itself a "superstition" of the worst kind. Using irony and a healthy dose of playful sarcasm, Inside the Atheist Mind lampoons, teases, and deflates the atheist position, unmasking it for what it is--an empty, intellectually barren philosophy, devoid of any logic and common sense.

Unmasking the Spirit of Injustice
Author: Angela Strong
Publisher: WestBow Press
ISBN: 1973656922
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 140
Book Description
It has always been the subject of my attention as to why bad things always happen to good people. Or why is it that innocent people are the ones that always get hurt? Or why is it that evil or evilness always seems to overshadow good or goodness? What calls my attention even more is how individuals, families, nations, and even ministries can be victims of an atmosphere of reoccurring negative events in their lives in which they are unable to give any logical explanations for. It’s as if they were fighting against an invisible force that’s opposing all their attempts to move forward in their lives. What spirit force is behind all these evil and unjust happenings that are occurring around our world? What is this spirit that leaves in its wake a trail of pain, hurt, and destruction? The spiritual force behind all these inexplicable atrocities has a name and it is called the spirit of injustice, the truth never before revealed behind the struggles we have to face daily. The assignment of this evil spirit is to cause opposition and difficulties in the lives of people. Here you will find out how to identify this evil spirit of injustice, how it operates, what strategies it uses to attack us, and how it can infiltrate our lives, families, and nations. You will learn how to break off with cycles of injustice in your life, how to come out victorious from its attacks, and how to activate God’s blessings over your life. You will also learn how to reaffirm your true identity as a child of God and start seeing yourself according to the parameters of God’s kingdom and not as your surroundings and circumstances dictate them to you. Our target is to unmask this evil spirit that has been doing warfare against God’s people for centuries. It is our greatest desire that you can reach the fulfillment of your purpose that God has prepared for you from before the foundation of the world.

Unmasking the Powers
Author: Walter Wink
Publisher: Fortress Press
ISBN: 150645383X

Languages : en
Pages : 240
Book Description
Angels, Spirits, principalities, powers, gods, Satanthese, along with all other spiritual realities, are the unmentionables of our culture. The dominant materialistic worldview has absolutely no place for them. But materialism itself is terminally ill, and, let us hope, in process of replacement by a worldview capable of honoring the lasting values of modern science without succumbing to reductionism. Therefore, we find ourselves returning to the ancient traditions, searching for wisdom wherever it may be found. We do not capitulate to the past and its superstitions, but bring all the gifts our race has acquired along the way as aids in recovering the lost language of our souls. In Naming the Powers I developed the thesis that the New Testament's principalities and powers is a generic category referring to the determining forces of physical, psychic, and social existence. In the present volume we will be focusing on just seven of the Powers mentioned in Scripture. Their selection out of all the others dealt with in Naming the Powers is partly arbitrary: they happen to be ones about which I felt I had something to say. But they are also representative, and open the way to comprehending the rest. They are: Satan, demons, angels of churches, angels of nations, gods, elements, and angels of nature.

Pages : 241
Book Description
Jesus Christ is the most famous man in human history, but exactly who was He? Some say a fable; others think just one option among many good teachers, or even a nice guy who taught morals. Do any of these descriptions capture the totality of who He was? Jesus Unmasked goes directly to the world’s greatest expert on Jesus Christ, Jesus Himself: Who Jesus said He was and why He said it the way He did What historical accounts and Biblical details reveal versus what we assume Why 4000 years of history, prophecy and chronology force every human being to render their verdict about this one man. When you encounter Jesus Unmasked, you will not be ambivalent. Jesus gives us clarity and insight into the nature of God. Interact with what Jesus taught about Himself and draw your own conclusions to the world’s most important question: “Who is the real Jesus?”

Who Are "The" Sons of God?
Author: Ray C. Van Tassell
Publisher: Xulon Press
ISBN: 160791235X
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 94
Book Description
John 1:12-13 states: "But as many as received Him, TO THEM GAVE HE POWER TO BECOME THE SONS OF GOD, even to them that believe on His name: Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God." What must we do to become a member of the Corporate Body Of Christ? In this writing, we delve into the various teachings through scripture, the facets of this many membered Tabernacles of believers who seek His face to have an intimate relationship with the Most High God. This relationship is face-to-face fellowship to learn of HIS HIGHER WAYS and walk in them if we so desire. This is an act of our free will choice, to be obedient to His voice if we so desire. We are on a road from a sinner to a completed saint who is freed from sin by Yeshua's completed work on the cross. We must put His living seed word, His written word, in our hearts and let it germinate growing into His DEVINE IMAGE AS AN OVERCOMER OF ALL SIN "IF" we will HOLD OUT PATIENTLY TO THE END of our total deliverance experientially. This overcoming life can only come about through fellowshipping with the Most High God as He pours out His wisdom into our being so in the end, He can fill us with His glory as He did both tabernacles of Moses and Solomon when they were completed. This is all in His timing as He moves in and through us as we move toward Him in Spirit and in Truth.
