Exhortations For The Church: Volume 12 by Joan Boney (1 Review)    Price verified 7 minutes ago

We, in the church today, are in the position of preparing ourselves for the return of Jesus. Many of the exhortations in this book are given to help us to position ourselves in the scriptures in all things so we will stand approved in Jesus, the Word, in the last days. The apostle Paul said the day of the Lord would not come until the apostasy came first into the churches. II Thessalonians 2:3-8 NASB Let no one in any way deceive you, for it (the day of the Lord) will not come unless the apostasy comes first, and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the son of destruction, who opposes and exalts himself above every so-called god or object of worship, so that he takes his seat in the temple of God, displaying himself as being God. Do you not remember that while I was still with you, I was telling you these things? And you know what restrains him now, so that in his time he will be revealed. For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work; only he who now restrains will do so until he is taken out of the way. Then that lawless one will be revealed whom the Lord will slay with the breath of His mouth and bring to an end by the appearance of His coming; The apostasy was restrained by the Holy Scriptures. This held antichrist back. Antichrist is opposite of scripture. When churches began removing various portions of scripture, the restraint holding the lawlessness back from the church group was removed and antichrist moved into the church. Jesus said: The man who marries a divorced woman commits adultery. Mt. 5:32 & Mt. 19 When churches changed this doctrine and permitted divorce and remarriage at will in the congregation, it opened the door for antichrist in the church group. But Paul said this had to happen before Jesus returns. This really puts us at the end-times. Many other doctrines of Christ are also being changed in churches today. We must be sure we are living in God's truth on these matters such as divorce, remarriage, ...

The Wrong Apocalypse by Philip J Dennis (7 Reviews)    Price verified 8 minutes ago

... a very entertaining and eye opening read. - Helen - Amazon review ... if you're like me and enjoy your zombies with a side of humour than this is a book you should be checking out! - Adam - Amazon review One moment we are spending time with friends, family, lovers. Then, before we knew it, the whole world went to hell and we find ourselves hiding indoors, scared for our lives over what is happening outside. It's the Apocalypse.

ROOSEVELT AND CHURCHILL men of secrets (David Stafford World War II History) by David Stafford (84 Reviews)    Price verified 2 hours ago

A THOROUGH EXAMINATION OF THE VITAL RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN TWO OF THE MOST SIGNIFICANT STATESMEN DURING WORLD WAR TWO. 'However much they valued their special relationship, neither man allowed it to trump national goals. David Stafford's fascinating book is a useful reminder of how complicated the Grand Alliance actually was.' New York Times 'An intriguing book which makes a very good read.' Irish Independent 'A swift, well-documented assessment of the relationship's "volatile mix of friendship, rivalry and resentment".' Kirkus Reviews 'Much of this book upsets accepted views... Stafford has the precious gift of making technical subjects easy to follow; he writes clearly, and maintains a strong narrative flow. This is most readable history.' The Sunday Times Roosevelt and Churchill were titans of the twentieth century with a unique relationship. It was based on interlinked national histories, partially shared nationality (Churchill was half-American), love for the navy and a common belief in the superiority of Anglo-Saxon institutions. Above all, it was cemented by shared enemies: Nazi Germany and Imperial Japan. On these foundations, Churchill and Roosevelt constructed a fighting alliance unlike any other in history. A Combined Chiefs of Staff, Anglo-American war-making boards, and an atomic alliance helped to deliver victory in 1945. The two men also developed an extraordinary personal relationship, communicating almost daily. Their camaraderie ended abruptly with Roosevelt's death on 12 April 1945, just hours before American and British troops liberated Buchenwald and Belsen. At the heart of this special relationship, hidden by layers of secrecy, was a far-reaching sharing of intelligence which would endure well beyond their own premierships. In this fascinating account, David Stafford draws on declassified information and his own specialist understanding of intelligence to illuminate the relationship between two men who, as leaders and allies, were ...

Mackie's Law (Mackie's Law Trilogy Book 1) by Graeme Wright (Elmfield Editions) (34 Reviews)    Price verified 3 hours ago

The discovery of a skull in high-country New Zealand sets in motion events that peel away the past to disturb the lives of men and women in small towns not used to outside eyes. For too many years their local affairs have been hidden away by time and back roads: a farmer's missing wife, their daughter the biker chick, a pregnant waitress, the go-to man "stooped as often as not over a truck engine, some farm machinery or a table at the tavern", the politician with both eyes on the main chance and a dark secret even he has forgotten. Central to them all is Pete Mackie, the only law back of beyond where sometimes the best way of upholding the law is by bending the rules. But like the towns he serves, not everything about Pete Mackie is what it seems - as rookie radio journalist Sandra Blaine discovers when she ventures off the highway on to gravel roads in search of someone else's story. A witty, racy page-turner, Mackie's Law sees the iconoclastic London-based sportswriter Graeme Wright return to the people and roots of early short stories set in his native New Zealand. It may not be a New Zealand all readers will know but it will certainly be one that many recognise in spite of themselves.

The Staircase of Life: The Story of the Origin and Evolution of Life and Humankind by Gerard Alexander Willighagen (9 Reviews)    Price verified one hour ago

Even though we are all different in our own ways, we all have an underlying thread in common: our evolution, our history. However, only roughly 0.0001% of the Earth's whole history has been occupied by human beings with behaviorally contemporary traits. We are, in fact, right at the start of everything. Yet, in order to survive even for such a short period of time, a seemingly unending line of fortunate events was necessary. But what were these fortunate events? How did Homo sapiens get here after many billion years and virtually infinite evolutionary crossroads? How did humankind ultimately conquer the world? And how did life emerge in the first place? In this epic and compelling story, Gerard Alexander Willighagen strives to answer these and many more intriguing questions by taking you through space and time to explore the origins of life, the evolution and rise of Homo sapiens, the dawn and development of civilization, and the emergence and formation of the modern world we know today. In the process of meandering through this multi-billion-year story, we'll come to appreciate the incredible good fortune that all living organisms, including our own highly evolved yet essentially Stone Age-wired species, have of just simply existing. So, let's take a huge step back in time -- right at the initial steps of life -- to ponder how exceptional our story truly is. However, as a short sneak peek in advance: our story is indeed exceptional, notable, and utterly captivating.

Jac and Billy: Blood Drive by Steven Daniels (1 Review)    Price verified 8 minutes ago

Seventeen-year-old Jac Kelley's sheltered life had kept her and her little brother Billy safe from the outside world and the world safe from them. As young vampires, they were still learning to control their cravings. But after the murder of their father and the disappearance of their mother, they suddenly must face the world on their own. Unexpectedly, Jac receives a handwritten note from their mother with instructions to shepherd Billy across the country to stay with family friends in California. Fearing the ruthless leader of the local coven was behind the demise and vanishing of their parents, Jac and Billy escape a coven handler and venture out into the world to make their own way. After a deadly encounter, Jac and Billy find themselves lost and alone on the streets of a small town in Oklahoma. Serendipitously, Jac finds help from a local who offers to drive them to San Diego. But just when it seems the trio is safely on their way, they face threats from proxies sent by the coven leader, and worse, Jac begins a fight against the most significant danger -- her need for blood. Dear Readers, Jac and Billy: Blood Drive is a young adult, supernatural novel about vampire siblings who suffer life-altering events, must flee their home, and fight for survival. The story contains language and violence often found in films labeled as viewable for ages 13 and above. Consider the following content list to determine if the book is right for you or the intended reader. • Some coarse language • Death of a parent • Violence and death • Suicidal thoughts I feel it is also important to mention that Jac and Billy: Blood Drive is about the strong bond between siblings, resiliency, friendship, and learning there is love and beauty in the world.

Stress? With four kids, a talent for burning dinner in under five minutes, and crusted applesauce on the yoga pants that haven't seen the inside of a gym in a decade, I've cornered the market on stress. Sometimes I find myself fantasizing. Totally benign, stress-relieving fantasies... like running away with the hot pool boy next door, or finding out that the child who's annoying me most that day was switched at birth. At least it was harmless until Jason Collins moves in across the street and my wild imagination goes feral. I can't deny Jason's easy on the eyes, but something about him and his family's just not adding up. My kids' safety is my priority, so I spy on the neighbors like it's my job. And that's when my teenage daughter and I stumble upon the body. The dead body. Before I know what hit me, I'm thrown together with Jason in the most unpredictable way. Tied to a chair in an abandoned cabin in the woods. And no, despite my fantasies, there's nothing kinky about this... just pure horror that might be the death of me.

A Guide for Life Is God for Life by James Thomas Lee Jr (1 Review)    Price verified 8 hours ago

In this book, eight brief scenarios about nine imaginary people will be presented. Even though the people will not have been modeled after anyone in particular, their intent will be to mirror what many people in this world consider the important issues of this life. The point that will be made with each scenario, however, is that every person, no matter what, will someday die. So if there is an afterlife and if that afterlife lasts forever, then rational, intelligent human beings to be rational and intelligent should be at least a little concerned about that life after death. While the topics of this book are serious, playful names have been used to describe the type of each person being discussed. For example, scenario one is about Abercrombie Gotitall. With a name like that, it should be obvious that he is very successful. Scenario two is about Barking Godislove. His main claim is that a loving God would never impose eternal condemnation on anyone. Scenario three is about Causing Imsogood. She believes that it is important to be a good person and to be involved in positive civic causes. Scenario four is about Doing Moregoodthanbad. Neither saint nor devil is what seems most important to him. Scenario five is about Eternity Doesnotexist. Eternity tends to rely on the smart people in the world to let her know the truth about the afterlife. Scenario six is about Foolish Religionisforothers.

666: Mark of the Beast by Will Clark (4 Reviews)    Price verified 8 hours ago

This story depicts a scenario of how and why the Battle of Armageddon could happen in the near future. It incorporates current events and international relationships to show who is most likely to initiate that apocalyptic battle against Israel? That answer is simple, by considering who wants to destroy Israel at this very moment. Clearly, it's the Islamic nations. The leader of that battle will be the one-world leader at that time. This means the one-world leader must be a Muslim. Muslims might even consider him their Messiah, while he pretends to be the other Messiah. How can this happen? Simple. That leader is described in prophesy as the 'Great Deceiver.' He is such a great deceiver that no one really knows his home of origin. When his reign begins he will be lauded as a 'man of peace' and will be respected and revered by all nations. His power will begin by becoming leader of the ten European nations that once were part of the Roman Empire. Those countries will lose their historical identities and will become Muslim through continued massive immigration and exploding propagation. That condition will soon be achieved and will propel the Beast to unleashed power. Through treaties, sanctions, and threats, he will disarm countries and make them vulnerable to his real plans of destruction. He will also initiate his 'mark' to allow people to transact business. Without his mark, people will not be allowed to buy or sell items. The mark will be an interactive computer chip that will identify each person as a follower of the one-world leader. Once he has computer control over every person, he will evolve into the 'Beast' and begin his inhuman acts against humanity. Before this Beast can attack Israel, he must first destroy the strength of America. Presently, America is the 'great restrainer' that protects Israel against that planned annihilation. Can patriotic Americans repel the invaders who plan to kill them? Will the Islamic attacks at the Jezreel ...

Billy, Eric & Adolf: One War, Two Brothers by Chris Whitfield (273 Reviews)    Price verified 9 hours ago

In January 1941 with the Liverpool Blitz at its height, twelve-year-old Billy Whitfield was evacuated to live on a farm without running water or electricity in the rural town of Bridgnorth, Shropshire, an event that was to shape him for the rest of his life. In the same year, his elder brother Eric volunteered to join the RAF, subsequently serving as a flight engineer in Bomber Command, the most dangerous of the Allied Services. Based on the true story of these two brothers and their contrasting experiences during the Second World War, Billy, Eric & Adolf is a tale of courage, innocence and love, a poignant, funny and moving account of ordinary lives impacted by extraordinary times. "The newspaper headline read more like a plot line from an episode of Dad's Army. 'Hitler wanted sleepy Bridgnorth to be Nazi HQ after the invasion of Britain.' I laughed out loud... surely not? Innocently searching the internet for wartime photographs of the Shropshire town, I had inadvertently uncovered one of life's unexpected ironies. The article, from the Daily Telegraph 21st April 2005, explained that newly discovered secret papers had revealed Bridgnorth as Adolf Hitler's preferred choice for the headquarters of Nazi GB after a successful invasion of the British mainland. The town's central location, the nearby RAF base, the fortification possibilities from its unusual 'town on a hill' geography, all contributed to earmark the place as ideal. The documents proved that German invasion plans were still up and running one year after the Luftwaffe's Battle of Britain setback. They were dated 1941, the same year that my dad was evacuated away from the dangers of the Liverpool Blitz... and yes, he was sent to Bridgnorth. The absurdity of the young, twelve-year-old Billy Whitfield escaping the bombings by relocating to the town Adolf had chosen to make his home from home appealed to my sense of fun. The idea for a book about my dad's wartime experiences arose from conversations ...

America 20XX: The New World Order by Will Clark (2 Reviews)    Price verified 9 hours ago

Although fictional, the characters in this story discuss many important events and practices occurring in the lives of every American, and many citizens throughout the world. The strong movement by leaders of many countries to establish what they term 'a new world order' is a hidden danger many citizens do not recognize. That idea concerns 'globalism,' where citizens of all countries are ruled as if they were citizens of only one universal country. How are we almost there, and what are the dangers of globalism? Our national resolve has been attacked, and influenced to accept globalism in three major areas: education, religion, and free speech. First is education. National education policies now promote a standard student rather than a successful student. Second, religion must be destroyed or diminished to allow world compatibility. Third, every free citizen must guard every word he or she says, or be subjected to criticism and threat by our government. What are the dangers of globalism? The dangers are many, but two dangers expose their ugly faces in the forefront. They are authoritarianism from the elite, and mediocrity from the masses. Why is a strong, independent, and separate America necessary? We must continue to be a beacon for the world. Without the example we set for every nation and every world citizen, those citizens will not be shown the vision of what can be if they strive for success. Progress and success are not free and random gifts. This novel answers the question: If America is ever defeated, how could it happen? If it were to happen, it would require conspiracy and treason from our highest level of government. It would begin with a federal constabulary, and supported by disregard for our Second Amendment. In this story, Vision is the new federal constabulary force established by U.S. President Arabar when funding is not available for states and municipalities to fund their own police and security forces. This major funding crisis results ...

The History of Eternity by James E. Winder (7 Reviews)    Price verified 9 hours ago

You cannot help but wonder what and why you are. The History of Eternity is a book that again and again answers these questions, as it celebrates the tragic joy of wonder at the enigma of your existence. There will always be a clamoring after elusive fact. There will always be a hankering for some durable theory that will explain the fact. There will always be an inability to match the one wholly with the other. Because something is always left out, there will always persist a stubbornly invisible and intractable remainder. And this remainder, this dark matter behind every thought, behind every desire, behind every joy, behind every sorrow, will continue to populate your universe with wonder. Read this book, if you will, and share that wonder. You are born into a conspiracy of significance, already entangled with your equally lonely others. The history of eternity, the tension between nowhere and now here, defines the struggle between the life you are living now and whatever there may be of the life to come. The History of Eternity is a series of broken elegies to those who have mattered, to their moments and your moments, to their sanity and your sanity, to their madness and your madness. The History of Eternity is one man's meditation on the reverberating shock of his encounter with Henry Adams, Aristotle, Augustine, Bach, Balzac, Beckett, Bergson, Bloch, Boehme, Bonhoeffer, Cervantes, Chekhov, Cicero, Claudel, Dante, Darwin, Derrida, Emily Dickinson, Dostoevsky, Eckhart, Emerson, Ezekiel, Faulkner, Gide, Goethe, Heraclitus, Herodotus, Hume, Isaiah, Henry James, Jeremiah, Samuel Johnson, Kafka, Kierkegaard, D.H.

When private investigator Lawrence Mallory's daughter, Susanna, brings a note home from school, she's not the one in trouble. Her teacher is... It's March 1950 in Central City and the teacher in question is John Franklin. He is also North High School's legendary basketball coach, and he has something in his past which if it ever got out, could mean he'd be trading his classroom and coach's office for a prison cell. There's nothing Franklin won't do to keep that from happening. When he learns that his ambitious young assistant found out about the "something" and may be planning to use it to force him out, Franklin contacts Mallory about investigating the matter. However, he won't tell him anything about his past transgression other than it was an "unpleasant incident." Undeterred, Mallory goes back to school where he majors in murder with minors in obsession, blackmail, narcissism, and dark secrets from the pasts of nearly everyone he meets. He finds himself dealing with such things as: a rumor going around that Franklin killed his first wife, a student-run gambling ring complete with point shaving and the involvement of adult bookies, the assistant's flirtatious wife who's very much a daddy's girl, her father who's also president of the school board, and Frankin's best player, a troubled kid with a hot-tempered father and a best friend who's only in school because of the terms of his probation. In short order, the school board president almost loses his head to a shotgun blast, and Franklin vanishes leaving the body of a lady of the evening in his house. Then Mallory learns about a thirty-year-old murder that sounds a lot like the one Franklin was rumored to have committed. Along with his wisecracking wife, Kate, who is also his secretary, and Susanna, whose goal is to be Central City's first female homicide detective, he'll try to find some answers. But will this family of sleuths find them before another body turns up, quite possibly Mallory's? SPOILER ...

Found, Lost, Paved and Sunk: Paradise by Jay Maclean (12 Reviews)    Price verified 8 minutes ago

Where is paradise on earth? Somewhere far from the maddening crowds, the cold, the politics, work, of course. People have been searching for their paradise for centuries, even before taxation was invented. The stories of those who wrote about their exploits often reveal more about themselves than the nature of the paradises they sought and sometimes found. Did you know that Sir Walter Raleigh was the world's first pusher of paradise real estate? Or that among the explorers of tropical paradises, the infamous Captain Bligh of the Bounty was quite humane and considerate? Or that Captain James Cook was the first westerner to get a tropical, full body massage -- and was pretty coy about describing it? That the original Shangri-La paradise was a mix of ascetic monks on top of a Tibetan mountain and a tropical village of loose women at its foot? That Thor Heyerdahl and his first wife honeymooned for a whole year in a remote tropical paradise, leading to his Polynesian migration theory and the Kon Tiki expedition? Found, Lost, Paved and Sunk: Paradise explores the mind set of artists, beachcombers, colonial administrators, developers, explorers, hermits, missionaries, mutineers, philosophers, scientists and writers, not to mention the native residents who were already living in the paradises they sometimes describe. Learn about the mechanics and problems of living in a paradise, dealing with neighbors both onshore and offshore, housing, water, and health. Learn about the fate of paradises under colonialism and climate change. Learn also about the opinions of other animals and plants; where is their paradise? The world is changing irreversibly. Where and how does paradise fit into its future? And finally, what does it all really mean? Found, Lost, Paved and Sunk: Paradise tells all.
