Säulen im Regierungsbezirk, Obeliske auf Theatern, Prachttreppen, Atlanten, Putti und korinthische Kapitelle - die Hauptstadt ist voll von antiken Bezügen, ästhetischen Diebstählen und häufig auch von einem epochalen und stilistischen Durcheinander. Vom Brandenburger Tor bis zu unscheinbaren Hinweisen - die Stadt an der Spree zeigt sich als Meisterin des Zitierens. Nur muss man in der Lage sein, diese "Zitate" auch zu lesen, zu verstehen und einzuordnen.

Spiritual concepts can be very confusing, so much so, many people don't know where to turn or what to believe. But wait! Don't throw the baby out with the bath water; there is more to the story. There is more to learn, in fact, you will discover that it has been in God's plan and purpose for us to experience the confusion within all the different churches. (See why) For those of you that have never tried a church or others that feel church has failed you, I invite you to take a listen - I promise that you will be amazed at what you hear.

This little audiobook was first designed as a handout to inform all of the simplicity of God's requirements for being allowed to enter a promised land beyond our wildest dreams. Satan would like us to believe that the requirements are far too hard and complicated for anyone - but I'm here to tell you, that's a lie. So I challenge you to investigate for yourself, because it really is time to think. Use the good common sense God gave you. If you do that, you'll be amazed - asking yourself why you hadn't realized this before.

This little book was especially designed for those of you that somehow became discouraged with church, enough to fall off the wagon. So whatever your story is, I'll be the first to sympathize because I was once there myself. But the journey back has implanted a picture of God within me that no one will ever take from me. The most important thing I had to learn was what it really means to love God. Because most of us being raised in church were told from childhood that we were to love Jesus because of what he did for us. Of course, that might be fine for a child, but for us adults, it really should be more than an obligation type of relationship.

Der große Theologe, Arzt und Musiker Albert Schweitzer veröffentlichte seine "Gespräche über das Neue Testament" in den Jahren 1901 bis 1904, als er Privatdozent in Straßburg war, in der kleinen Zeitung Evangelisch-protestantischer Kirchenbote für Elsass-Lothringen. Gemeinsames Ziel der 33 kurzen, predigtähnlichen Texte ist es, eine Anleitung zu geben, "wie ein erwachsener Christ selbständig für sich die Bibel lesen soll".

When will Jesus return? Are there signs in the Bible that tell us? There are hundreds of books written about prophecy and the signs of the times showing that we are in the end times because of something the author interpreted from the Bible. The problem with signs of the end times is that there is nothing in the Bible to back up what they say. The opposite is true, Jesus said we will not know when he will return, he will come like a thief in the night, so we need to be ready all the time. There are many Bible prophecies that have come true and many more that will come true. God has given us...

La nostra vita non è che un costante accumulare di conoscenze ed un immagazzinamento dei risultati delle esperienze vissute. La legge di causa ed effetto è in costante azione e noi raccogliamo ciò che abbiamo seminato, non come punizione dei nostri errori, ma come effetto che segua la causa. La teologia dice che noi siamo puniti per causa dei nostri peccati, ma una più alta conoscenza ci dice che noi siamo puniti dai nostri stessi peccati, non per causa di essi.

Too many parents, pastors, and people focus on what they value but often neglect to express why it is critical or essential. The fundamentals of the apostles’ doctrine are eternally essential. They are not creeds of words of mere man; they are God’s absolute Word. Because we belong to Jesus, we should want to please Him and obey His Word.

Reality, which is the Self, permits of two aspects: the Manifest and the Unmanifest. This treatise elucidates the Manifest Reality as it is. Born from the writer’s first-hand experience of the Self, this work dictates that which has never been heard before. Beginning with the inherent nature and powers of the Soul, which is the Dreamer, Lucidity details the mechanics and laws of Reality to which all are subject. The esoteric qualities of the Deity are explained as both The One and his consort, The Mother of the Self.

We don't have to settle for dull, boring routine Christianity. We can keep on going and growing with God every day of our life. No more monotony. No more frustration. No more playing church. The real thing. We get there by staying hungry.

An eighteenth century Scottish poet wrote concerning war: "Rash, fruitless war, from wanton glory waged, is only splendid murder." An older preacher used this quotation when he wrote concerning a particularly brutal doctrinal attack on another elderly preacher by a group of younger, treacherous preachers. While many controversies among Christians and churches aren't this vicious, many Christians and congregations simply don't know how to navigate personal and doctrinal clashes; and thus, do more harm than good. Such situations expose some noble and naïve souls to some pretty treacherous ...

Society needs to Build Heresies. Ms. Basildeanism thus assumes responsibility for that. At a cafe she frequented, someone left behind a printout of Rikipedia's list of Heresies. This list of Heresies and its Basildeanism section changed Ms. Basildeanism's life.

Generational Sins The Bible reveals patterns of sin passed down through generations, sometimes as generational curses. To grasp this, we must understand the nature of a curse and how it's linked to sin. Just as the laws of gravity are unbreakable, the laws of sin result in curses and death. The Ten Commandments serve as a warning against generational curses. Exodus 20:3-6 emphasizes the consequences of idolatry, highlighting the repercussions of disobedience. These spiritual laws not only affect the initial generation but can also impact subsequent ones. The Bible recognizes sin as both an ...

One of the most important things you can do as a Christian is to know the attributes of God, since all the essential doctrines of the Faith flow from these important characteristics.We are magnifying who and what God is! As the church grapples with new and innovating ways to understand God’s nature, a flawed concept of God threatens to reduce not only the awe and majesty of the Almighty, but also the clear and crucial ontological (being) distinction between the Creator and creation, the eternal and temporal, and the infinite and finite.Open Theism (aka Free Will Theism, Neotheism, or ...

Whether you read the open chapters of Genesis, or reflect on the discipline of therapy, or simply listen deeply to someone in deep pain, you will discover that when your world seems to be in deep chaos, the capturing that chaos in words can enable you to discover meaning and hope. A Star and a Tear is a fictional attempt to tell the story of racism in our country.

I wrote this book mainly because of the confusion among Brethren. This book deals with sensitive subject matter; because God’s Truth matters. This book will clear up the divide concerning what’s correct Biblically and what’s not. It will divide God’s Truth and human error. It will bring clarity to those searching for God’s Truths on matters of Salvation concerning the unborn and including children who die without Christ. This book will help clear up the confusion once and for all concerning the Apostolic Age. It will also uncover what Catholics believe and what God’s Word truly ...

Much can be (and has been) written and said about Church Growth, and the Church Assimilation processes. My intention, in this book, is not to overwhelm you with the details of either of these two topics, but, rather, to give you a basic, workable, strategy that you will be able to build upon and customize to your own church, and culture. Church Growth is certainly important; especially to the heart of God. Nevertheless, if most of the people coming in your “front door” are very soon afterwards exiting through your “back door”, there will be very little, if any, church growth (more ...
