Martin Zender and co-author Heidi Colpo encourage sexual freedom by breaking the bonds of sexual shame brought upon both children and adults by orthodox religion.

We are clay pots by design, not because we have gone afoul of God's intention for us. Wouldn't some of us love to shed our earthenware now and still walk among mortals? Our sins keep us from a perfect walk, and we mourn this. We do not yet understand, of course, that an imperfect walk is the main idea of this life. God puts the treasure of his spirit in earthen vessels now to keep the vessels from situating themselves upon high places. Humility is a blessed thing. Mistakes remind us of our clayhood and drive us toward Christ.

Human belief is a gift of God that acquaints people with something God already did. People do have faith, and they do have wills, but the believing and the willing originated outside themselves. Belief is a gift that follows salvation; it does not precede it. So no one should think: I did it! The startling result? We are not saved because we believe; we believe because we are saved.

In this groundbreaking work, Martin Zender asks the one question that no other book on human sexuality asks: Why is there sex in the first place? No other book makes procreation a side-effect rather than the raison d'etre of sexual attraction. Never content with knowing how things are, Zender explains why they are. From the genesis of eroticism in Eden to your bedroom, Divine Principles of Sexual Attraction demystifies the behaviors of both sexes, at the same time making both men and women content with who God made them.

As indicated by the title, this book presents a very critical look at the doctrine of Hell, which is rarely criticized within Christendom today. In the scriptures, there is no mention of "eternal torment" in the Old Testament, and in the Greek scriptures (the NT), there are three words translated to "hell": Gehenna, Hades, and Tartarus, none of which have anything to do with eternal torment. My objective is to guide you into the knowledge that the doctrine of hell is unbiblical and extremely harmful to those who hold to it.

Paul’s 13 letters are a radical departure from the rest of Scripture, including Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. The only place in the Bible where you will find details concerning God’s remedy for restoring the heavens is in the 13 letters of Paul. The only place in Scripture where you will find law tossed out the window is in the 13 letters of Paul. The only books in the entire Bible dealing with the special salvation of gentiles (non-Israelites), who sin as a vocation and have never even heard of Moses, are the 13 letters of Paul.

If you've wondered why you've generally felt worse rather than better after watching world and national news, here's your answer. At what point are we supposed to resist government—or is there even such a point? Zender's Beyond Politics will at first rock your political boat, but then anchor you to the most peaceful shore imaginable.

With childlilke boldness and profound logic, Martin Zender exposes the spiritual bankruptcy of the religious institution. Zender's mastery of satire separates him from the pious; his Scriptural expertise launches him as the primary spokesman for those who desire God, but don't trust the establishments that boast His name.

If prayer changed things, we'd all be in trouble. Imagine eight billion people storming heaven simultaneously. Imagine God throwing His papers all around and wondering what to do, who to answer. Imagine God finally plugging His ears and grinding His pearly white teeth in holy exasperation. This is a worse case scenario than if God just ignored us all and continues with His plan, which He came up with quite a long time ago when everything was calm and peaceful and humanity had not been invented.

You can take back control of your life and steer it in the right direction, despite how insecure or uninspired you may be feeling. Everything you need to get through tough times and rise above is already inside of you – you just need to recognize and harness it. Struggles and problems may come your way, but it’s what you do about them that makes all the difference.

Some verses in Paul's letters mislead women into thinking that God considers them to be inferior beings—passages such as, "I do not allow a woman to teach", "A woman must not speak in the ecclesia", "Man came before woman", and so forth. In Eve Raised, Martin Zender turns orthodoxy on its head, demonstrating that not only do these verses not disparage women, they actually show woman to be a superior creation worthy of protection.

Thirteen-year-old Reason Nelson attends a party that is busted by the local police. As he flees, he collides with a detective and a Black drug dealer. He snatches up what he believes to be his leather jacket and drunkenly crawls into a doghouse, dragging the jacket with him. In the pocket of this coat, Reason discovers a key that opens a safe-deposit box. The box contains evidence that will solve the murder of a young female informant. The second theme of the audiobook involves the fact-based event that took place in 1966 on the outskirts of Lincoln.

How to repair your credit report? The route you choose will depend on: Your budget, that is, how much you can afford. Your level of confidence in resolving disputes on your own.

If you don't have more than a few mistakes to fix, it could be worth the money you spend on a professional credit repair service. The money you save through lower long-term interest rates may justify a little money spent now.

Lucas intervenes on behalf of Ali Kharim and comes away from the encounter carrying a pistol with scorpions engraved on its pearl handles. Little does he know that inserted into the butt of the gun is a flash drive.

Lumpers is a family story, or rather, it’s a story about what constitutes a family, a lot like what constitutes a rock-and-roll band: If it works, it’s worth it, all other expectations be damned. The principal lumpers, Steph Abrams and Tony Zimbarco, chance to meet in Tripoli, Pennsylvania, in 1979, and commence assembling their ad hoc family piece by piece. Before long they are a full fledged unit, with a matriarch, of sorts, a patriarch, certainly, a designated pet, habits, rituals, even their own holiday. But it is in no way a textbook family, would never be sanctioned.

We fought corporate power then, and now we are fighting corporate power some more! Let's advance the progressive cause by fighting this type of corporate power.
