The Opinionated Spectator: Born to be Muslim by Pat Wary (3 Reviews)    Price verified 14 minutes ago

The Islamic way of life is not confined to only religious practices, which makes its scope knitted into all disciplines of contemporary academia. The content of this moral exhortation is an audacious attempt to reunite all the secular fragments of our knowledge back to their divine roots. The goal is to bring the focus back to Revelation and share certain truths that may continue to benefit others. What is the origin of today's Islamophobia? Where is the mainstream Muslim voice in the barrage of misinformation with the extremes of both sides dominating the discourse? This book aims to fill that void through a systematic dive into world history. It is a critical investigation for our time to help navigate a conflicted world of science, philosophy, and religion. The answers to many current issues are buried in the depths of a rich scholastic tradition, which are summarized concisely. Many myths are debunked, categories deconstructed, and then reconnected to demonstrate the Islamic way of life. Thousands of years of human achievements in philosophy, science, and theology are churned through a Muslim perspective to address contemporary concerns. It is a book about everything an author is advised not to write. It is dense and difficult but a must-read for all curious souls!

Considering Miracles: Lest thou forget by Joseph Dulmage (2 Reviews)    Price verified 14 minutes ago

Some miracles announce themselves like Jesus healing a blind man or raising the dead; while other miracles make less noise. Consider Jesus inexplicably disappearing in the midst of an angry crowd which seeks to kill him. Or Jesus knowing the exact number of years a person suffers with a disease. Or Jesus reading his accusers' minds and answering their thoughts. Scripture beckons careful examination. Bible students may read a miracle too fast. Rather like driving a familiar highway and passing an exit, never taken because we never knew it led to a place worth going.

As sad as this seems, one day, this will ring true for all of us. Remembering that we will die should be our greatest incentive to live. But sadly, it is not!

Bible Stories about the Heroes of the Faith by James Thomas Lee Jr (3 Reviews)    Price verified 56 minutes ago

Many but not all of the heroes of the Faith are named in the book of Hebrews, chapter eleven. Sixteen saints were specifically named in the first thirty-two verses of that chapter. But many others were implied indirectly in the last eight verses of that chapter. Hebrews 11:32-40 says, "And what shall I more say? for the time would fail me to tell... of the prophets: Who through faith subdued kingdoms, wrought righteousness, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions, Quenched the violence of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, out of weakness were made strong, waxed valiant in fight, turned to flight the armies of the aliens. Women received their dead raised to life again: and others were tortured, not accepting deliverance; that they might obtain a better resurrection: And others had trial of cruel mockings and scourgings, yea, moreover of bonds and imprisonment: They were stoned, they were sawn asunder, were tempted, were slain with the sword: they wandered about in sheepskins and goatskins; being destitute, afflicted, tormented; (Of whom the world was not worthy) they wandered in deserts, and in mountains, and in dens and caves of the earth. And these all, having obtained a good report through faith, received not the promise: God having provided some better thing for us, that they without us should not be made perfect." Therefore, chapter one of this text will identify how those people had become heroes of the Faith and how anyone can be a hero of the Faith. After that two stories will be shared about Abel. One story will be shared about Enoch. Six stories will be shared about Noah. Ten stories will be shared about Abraham. One story each will be shared about Sarah, Isaac, and Jacob. Five stories will be shared about Moses. One story each will be shared about Joshua and Rahab. Two stories will be shared about Gideon. One story will be shared about Barak.

Lessons Learned from the Godly Kings of Israel by James Thomas Lee Jr (2 Reviews)    Price verified 27 minutes ago

This text was not written to show how much better the godly kings were than the ungodly kings. It was not written to try to show that God had loved the children of Israel more than the people of all of the other nations. To the contrary, this text was written to show that, in some instances, the godly kings did some things that were just as bad as any of the ungodly kings of Israel. It was written to show that the Lord loved the people who opposed the children of Israel just like He loved the children of Israel. The notion that He had showed special favor to one type of people over another is not scriptural. God has always loved all of the people of His Creation even if He has not always loved everything that they have done. He has also always loved all of the people of His Creation even when they have not loved Him back. So it is hoped that those truths will be evident to those who reads this book. In the pages that follow, four truths will be emphasized. The first is that the Old Testament saints were not continually indwelled by the Holy Spirit in the same way as the New Testament saints. That means that they did not have the same advantages in trying to live for the Lord. The second is that the scriptures do not and were not intended to share exhaustive details about everything and everyone within their historical presentations. That means that they might share a very negative event about a godly king, without trying to offset it with a positive event. The scriptures were written to show the Lord's involvement with humanity and to show people how to find Him. They were not written to say that the godly kings really were godly. The third truth, that will be shared is that all people are sinners. So one should not expect too much from the godly kings of Israel. The fourth truth is that they did not lose their salvation even though some of them did some pretty bad things. So with those few thoughts, it is hoped that the readers of this text will find it ...

Self Proclamation: A Story Of The Spiritual Science Of Cycles by Nkosi Efa (23 Reviews)    Price verified 56 minutes ago

What's your story? Where did you land within the ongoing story of the Universe? This next question is a big one. Have you been a part of this universal story ever before? Look around you, examine your days; review your past, and delve a step deeper into the concept of 'story' as it pertains to how we experience life as humans. Within the story is your story. Your unique narrative is the road by which your lessons are delivered. It's your pathway, so to speak. It is the backdrop to your collection of experiences this lifetime. Without a narrative, your Soul would have no identities to attach to. You wouldn't know what character to be in the play of life. You wouldn't be familiar with any of the stage notes of the play, per se. Why does 'story' have so much impact or value? This philosophical question has a mathematical answer. The answer is this: your unique life story is set in the same format as every other story ever told. Your life's narrative has a plot, the parameters by which your story takes place. Your story has high points, low points, and the ebbs and tides of everything in-between. This structure is called a Bell Curve. The bell curve is the mathematical representation of how cycles transpire. Due to the energetic structure of a bell curve, we can accurately map data trends about various happenings within the life story. The story you were born into was chosen well before you arrived. You have a story chosen by you that is arranged specifically for you. All your experiences, good, bad, and in-between, are designed to further you on this spiral of ascension. On this journey of self-revelation, the goal is to arrive at a space of clarity, of understanding about who you are, who you want to become, and how you will service the One who sent you. We are all in this together, delicately intertwined, seeking the same clarity of self. If ever you wonder why you are here, know baseline that you are here to clear yourself of all things that block your ability ...

FIVE GREAT ARTICLES by JOHN TARTTELIN Price verified 2 hours ago

A collection of articles designed to stimulate and make you think. The first considers that everyday topic of conversation - dreams. Why do we dream? What do dreams mean? For thousands of years people have been asking these questions. From recent research to pure speculation, dreams are analyzed with interesting results. In the second article I give a personal view on what it means to be English. Who are the people and what are the events that founded and moulded the English nation? And why is the English language spoken in so many other countries today? In Descent into Darkness, the subject of the environment is discussed and how human arrogance has so often led to trouble not just for our own species but for many other animals that we share the planet with. The fourth article deals with Cryptozoology - the study of rare and speculative animals like the yeti and others, like the thylacine that are supposedly extinct. The final article is about a special individual I met some time ago, a rare treasure of a person who had a wealth of stories and jokes inside her - at the tender age of 84. Mrs Fletcher reminded me just how much an individual matters - even in a world of 7 billion people.

Ancient Civilization, Antarctica, 55.5 Million B.C.: 2023 Edition by Michael Hawking (7 Reviews)    Price verified 2 hours ago

Explore Evidence of a 55.5 Million Year Old Civilization on the Antarctic Continent. For decades the archaeological community labored under the theory that human civilization began only following the last Ice Age. Contemporary discoveries have undermined that conjecture. Modern research has unearthed hidden cities one after another -- previous academic accounts of the origins of civilization have fallen forfeit to evidence from archaeological sites worldwide, including Thebes (c. 37,900 BC), Edfu (c. 18,000 BC), Turkey (c. 12,000 BC), Bolivia (c. 15,000 BC), Indonesia (c. 22,000 BC), and most intriguingly, in Antarctica. The explorations in this book are organized as follows: ? Part I: The Ancient Civilizations -- Provides archaeological background regarding the pre-Younger Dryas Boundary event civilizations, circa 10,770 BC or earlier, and the known cataclysmic astronomical events that eradicated most evidence of prehistoric civilization from the historical record. ? Part II: An Incredibly Ancient City in Antarctica -- Provides a detailed account of the satellite imaging evidence for the remains of an extensive Paleocene civilization existing under the ice of Antarctica, including "intelligently-made structures, resembling some sort of pyramidal and rectangular buildings." Also examines the ice-core derived, isotopic record from the Paleogene and Neogene geologic periods indicating that the infrastructure of an advanced civilization existed on the Antarctic continent approximately 55.5 million years ago, and may have been inhabited for 300,000 or more years. Our planet is 4.543 billion years old and our species has been here for only the last 0.004% of the Earth's history. From our knowledge of the Milky Way Galaxy, we know that the Earth is an uniquely attractive planet with conditions ideal for life. Thinking we're the only intelligent species that could ever have been here is pure hubris. Modern humans have existed for just a few tens of thousands of ...
