Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Written nearly two thousand years ago, the Bible is a lengthy, complicated book with at least sixty-six books and over forty human authors (but one Divine Author). While reading, studying, and attempting to understand the ancient text and apply its lessons to modern life, many can feel overwhelmed, lost, and discouraged. Thankfully, there is an easier way to study and understand the messages of the Bible through the use of the seven major biblical covenants. In an insightful guide, seasoned pastor Kevin Rudolph explores the story of the Bible shaped around these biblical covenants that represent the great movements in Salvation History woven into both the Old and New Testaments. Within his overview of the seven covenants, Rudolph shows believers how they form the arc of Salvation History by responding to the need for Salvation after the Fall; answering how God chose to provide that salvation; identifying who the Messiah would be and how He would come; and anticipating the eventual return of Jesus Christ to close the books on Salvation History and to open the books on the Kingdom of God that is to come. Never Be Lost in the Bible Again is a thoughtful manual to better understanding the Bible through seven major covenants that provide a guideline for the overall message of Scripture.…

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Plastic Cars and Plywood Houses is less about plastic cars and plywood houses, and more about other stuff. The book follows the life journey of a blundering, bumbling 'trust fund kid' from private boarding school through middle age. There is quite a bit of allusion to recreational drug consumption and alcohol abuse humorously, but discouragingly depicted. In fact, deadpan humor is the driving force of the book, offering more gags for the dollar than just about anything else in print, and that includes Mark Twain, Oscar Wilde, and James Thurber. With little to no redeeming personal qualities or integrity, our main character is, let's face it, a social misfit, or an odd fish, if you will. His self-destructive, trust fund fueled, purposeless lifestyle puts him so out of touch with the rest of society that he never even realizes what a putz he really is. Although he suspects something's amiss, and perfunctorily tries to sort his life out, it's obvious that he's clueless, (or in the least won't admit) that his substance abuse is at the root of it all.…

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - The author contends that a review of the evolution of Imam W. Deen Mohammed's community will provide insight into halting society's decline. Volumes I, II and III sought to chronicle the transformation of the Nation of Islam from a black, reformist organization -built by the Hon. Elijah Muhammad-into an 'orthodox' Islamic community. The son, Wallace D. Mohammed (aka Imam W. Deen Mohammed), who assumed leadership after Mr. Muhammad's death, was responsible for the group's entry into 'orthodox' Islam. This volume further documents the transition. Yet, the transformation cannot be seen in physical or material terms. At this point in history, it is more of a spiritual and conceptual evolution. In fact, Imam Mohammed's 'community' is defined more by a particular spirit and mentality than by geography or a dogmatic doctrine. Imam Mohammed's uniqueness is his deep understanding and application of al-Islam, which is the brick and mortar of his community. Therefore, his Islamic orientation and interpretation, which has elevated the followers as a community above all other Muslim communities, is precisely what, the author believes, will help raise fallen society.…
