Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - When the church falls short of being an excellent description of the Body of Christ, there is an urgent need for a reawakening. When the character of the church is no longer consistent with the character of Jesus Christ, the head of the Body of Christ, there is a need to sound the fire alarm. When the church can no longer influence its members and the world in doing what is scripturally right, but good and acceptable, there is an urgent need for a spirit-guided self-examination. When supposed church members are no longer guided or led by the spirit of God but the senses or the world, there is a need for transformation by the renewing of the mind. When church members can no longer tell the difference between the true gospel of Christ Jesus and the secular gospel both preached from the same Holy Bible, there is an urgent need to speak out to save many from the path of damnation. The focus of this work is not so much on those social and business empires branded churches but on the individual whose genuine spiritual state is hinged on a personal relationship with God. Everyone must press in.…

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - As a child, poet Erika Abbott recognized the struggles of disabled kids at her school. She therefore became an advocate, the ringleader of the disabled posse, but as she grew, she realized people are not always just physically disabled-many of us hide emotional, spiritual, and psychological disabilities, as well.Porgy's Revenge is a collection of Abbott's sometimes dark, sometimes funny poems that strike at the imagination as well as modern day politics. She blends literary references with show tunes and urban landscapes. The reader is called to see the colorful world-and the miracle of life-with fresh eyes.Abbott is more than a winder of words; she is a storyteller. She bites back against 'Ugly Laws' that would persecute the diseased, maimed, or mutilated. She recalls the magic of music in poems like 'Pippin' and 'War.' Her imagery haunts, as does her message-one that readers will not soon forget, even once the collection is closed. …

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - A Faltering American Dream is a jolting analysis of the current United States' decline in government capabilities and solvency compared to other advanced nations of the world. It documents infrastructure deterioration, high national debt and poverty, scarcity of good jobs, and decreases in affordable higher education. The origin of these problems is in Washington where the harsh, uncompromising clash of political ideologies has resulted in a functionally disabled Congress. In this book, the author collects a wide range of information to arrive at a unique perspective on the policy differences so bitterly contended in Congress: the size, functions, and business regulations of the federal government, and its tax support of traditional services. The author directly compares economic and employment results of contending party policies, since World War II when each party held the presidency. He demonstrates that government spending per person since the 1980's is increasing faster than inflation, population, and GDP growth. These increases have occurred through administrations of both parties and show little or no effect of ideological differences. He seeks answers for why is this happening. In this lucid book, the author clarifies how and why such changes are happening to America's economy and former world prominence. At the root of most of these problems, he identifies a fatal flaw in our governance structure, unanticipated by the framers of the constitution. This book concludes with an urgent call for a practical correction of this defect and a plea for the campaign rhetoric of the 2016 political candidates to express clearly the reasons why they advocate their policy positions on important economic issues.…

Because of the many denominations and doctrines the believer is left confused and not knowing what to believe anymore.It is hoped that this book will bring some relive and certainty to the reader by taking you on a journey through the Scriptures. It also attempts to deal with very sensitive issues hardly taught or wrongly taught in some churches. It will stir the waters and rock the boat; forcing the reader to come out of his/her comfort zone. This is its prime goal! Its secondary goal is to revolutionize the mind and create a hunger for the Word of truth.
