Transformed by Jesus Christ Alone who is the Grace of God
This book is about the Bible, and it's about God who wrote the Bible. The book speaks directly to the reader about the relationship between a holy God and a sinful human race. Its intention is to steer its readers to read and study the Scriptures for they are which that testify of Jesus Christ, the Lamb of God who alone is able to take away the sins of the world, for whosoever will accept the gift of eternal life through salvation by Jesus Christ. The Bible says that there is no other name under heaven given among mankind by which we can be saved. The Bible is where the answers to the issues of life are found and describes the true nature of mankind. The book highlights, from the Bible, who we are in the eyes of God and who He has created us to be. It seeks to motivate its readers to examine their lives in light of what the Bible has to say about humanity and its relevance to current events. It is a book written to help us think about what is mankind's purpose on this earth, based on teachings found only in the Word of God. The book lets us know that the Bible teaches that each one of us can do great things with the help of God, who strengthens and guides everyone that believes that the Lord is mighty and awesome. He is patient and kind. He is very forgiving and compassionate. He is not willing that anyone should perish for the wages of their sins. But His patience will not last for forever. God has set a judgement day to judge every human being who has ever lived regarding their condition as an unrepentant sinner. One of the book's main purposes is to also challenge its readers to look in the mirror of God's Word to see who we really are in the eyes of God and what each person must do to be saved from eternal destruction.
Serving God Brings Blessings and Unusual Events
This book contains many unusual events. My Christian life has been one big adventure and journey that not many has encountered. It has been full of excitement filled with both joy and sadness.
Blessed Are the Poor in Spirit
This book is about seeing deaf, hard of hearing, hearing-impaired, deaf-blind and hearing as well to come to know the Savior Jesus Christ. My main interesting is to help them understand the Word of God and apply it to their own life with God's help. It also gives us the need to be encouragement, help and inspire in the Word of God and that the Word of God is for us to receive His Word by faith. Salvation is a gift from God to us and to those you receive Him. God's Word is very real from Old Testament to New Testament; God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit become as one and that God is truly One. We are God's children; born-again; born of the Spirit; washed in His Own Blood to gather us to eternity in glory to live with Him for ever more. Is that too hard? God said: Nothing is too hard. Blessings!!!
All Spirit Matters
Each of us is called to be a special kind of mystic when we are formed in the womb in the Divine Image. Mystics seek to conform to the Divine Image from womb to tomb, for as the Indian Sufi Kabir sang, What hope of cutting loose after one's death The noose stifling heaven in every breath? As now, so shall be - seek liberation In Life, or be interred in illusion! This compilation of prose and mystical poetry draws upon the life and teachings of Jesus of Nazareth, a mystic who is revered as a rabbi in Judaism, messiah in Christianity, prophet in Islam, bodhisattva in Buddhism and a wise and compassionate teacher and healer in secular settings. References from several faith traditions are included throughout to emphasize the shared wisdom and spiritual heritage of humanity. Through these reflections, we explore the relationship and reciprocity of life-forms on the Tree of Life. We aim to foster harmony and healing among and across various form-branches. We seek to find common ground on universal themes, as well as unique expressions within our own secular and faith traditions. Hopefully these reflections will prompt us to conduct our own experiments on mystical universals in ways that are congruent and consonant with our primary language of Spirit Matters.

Reclaiming Your Divine Heritage
This book looks at some of the origins of our dysfunctional social structures and why humanity has not been able to grow beyond the primitive ideas of violence, wars, and the need to control others. While we have made great strides in technology, we are yet infants in our social and spiritual institutions and attitudes as a species. The author discusses her own spiritual journey and shares how she has been led by God to share, and how she was able to hear the word directly and keep her spiritual identity free from outside social and religious manipulation.
The Pursuit of Human Purpose
Sahida Sainato has always questioned human purpose since she was little. By the time she was eight, she understood the deep challenges that came along with finding the answers. Years later while working in the fashion industry, Sahida Sainato traveled extensively where she began noticing the struggle for human survival without any idea that this compassionate understanding would only deepen and eventually lead her on a thoughtful search for the truth about purpose. As she details her determined journey to find the answers, Sahida shares how she reconnected with her eight-year-old self and experienced a profound moment of awareness that prompted a series of questions to better understand the reason for separation from God-being spirits within a human vehicle and in a material world contrary to His spiritual world. While realizing that many events in her life had been orchestrated and that we live in unprecedented times where truths are emerging and coming to light, she reveals how she embraced the extraordinary experiences that occurred during her journey and throughout her life as they connected like a puzzle and led her to astounding and unimaginable discoveries. The Pursuit of Human Purpose details one woman's incredible quest to find the answers to a complex question that ultimately unveiled a manifestation of love.
So Longeth My Soul
Students of Christian spirituality often have an ambivalent attitude to primary sources from the past. On the one hand they are intrigued by the mysterious 'otherness' of their and the promise that this very 'otherness' my take them into exciting uncharted territory. On the other hand, they lack the confidence to navigate this territory, so that what begins as strangely intriguing can quickly become 'just too weird.'The SCM Reader in Christian Spirituality not only offers a collection of readings from the classic texts of Christian spirituality but also gives the reader a way into these texts that enables them to be received as living and relevant for both personal spirituality and ministry.An introductory section guides the student through the process and offers techniques for approaching these often ancient texts. The Reader then presents readings from the patristic to the end of the early modern period, encompassing both the Eastern and Western church traditions, grouped around key themes, and including extensive notes and contextual material.
Beyond Religion and the Secular
Deploying a distinctive disaggregative approach to the study of 'religion', this volume shows that spiritual movements with extensive counterfactual beliefs have been much more creative than one might expect. Specifically, Wayne Hudson explores the creativity of six spiritual movements: the Bah獺'穩s, a Persian movement; Soka Gakkai, a Japanese movement; Ananda Marga and the Brahma Kumaris, two reformed Hindu movements; and two controversial American churches, The Church Universal and Triumphant and the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Most of these movements have counterintuitive features that have led Western scholars making Enlightenment assumptions to dismiss them as irrational and/or inconsequential. However, this book reveals that these movements have responded to modernity in ways that are creative and practical, resulting in a wide range of social, educational and cultural initiatives. Building on research surrounding the ways in which spiritual movements engage in cultural productions, this book takes the international research in a new direction by exploring the utopian intentionality such cultural productions reveal.
Neo-Spiritual Aesthetics
Tracing embodied transformation in the context of Gaga, the Israeli dance improvisation practice, this book demystifies what Lina Aschenbrenner coins as "neo-spiritual aesthetics." This book takes the reader on an analytical journey through a Gaga class, outlining the effective aesthetics of Gaga as an example for the broader field of neo-spiritualities. It distinguishes a threefold effect of Gaga practice-from a momentary extraordinary experience, to a lasting therapeutic effect, and finally Gaga's worldview potential. It situates the effect in an assemblage of interrelating aesthetics of environment, movement, and bodies. The book shows why seemingly leisure time activities such as Gaga form fruitful research objects to an academic study of religion and opens up research on neo-spiritual practices. In understanding the sensory effect of practice and its cultural and social implications, the book follows an Aesthetics of Religion approach. It departs from the idea that cognition is embodied and that the body is thus central to understanding cultural and social phenomena. Drawing upon a wide array of data gathered in the context of Gaga at the Suzanne Dellal Center in Tel Aviv, the book weaves together different methods of discourse, ritual, movement, body knowledge, and narrative analysis, while acknowledging insights from neuroscience and cognitive science.

Understanding the Real Teachings of Moses and Jesus
One of the greatest challenges Jesus faced during the course of His ministry on Earth was the unfortunate misinterpretation of the laws of Moses by Jewish religious leaders. The Synoptic Gospels contain a litany of altercations between Jesus and the Jews in this direction. In fact, these incidences eventually carried a high price: they cost John the Baptist his head, and they got Jesus nailed to the cross. Sadly, today, Christians are repeating the same mistakes. Bible scholars all over the World have differed in understanding of very critical Scriptural teachings. Consequently, the Scripture suffers carnal, physical, and literal interpretations in the hands of these "religious merchants." The outcome has been confusion, delusion, needless controversy, and ignorance in the body of Christ.In this book, Dara Ndu aims to correctly interpret what He spoke in the Books of the Law, the Synoptic Gospels, and the Revelations to Apostle John (the Beloved).Emeka Ude, J. grew up in the Eastern part of Nigeria. He studied Accountancy and Finance in Nigerian Universities; and obtained Ph. D (Accounting) from one of the prestigious Universities in United States of America.

Waves of Madness, Waters of Tranquility
Waves of Madness, Waters of Tranquility is my best articulation of the way the mentally ill mind works. The water theme is given to portray how overwhelming the task of recovery can be, but also relaxing. One can be lost at sea, but find serenity in the oceans. This book speaks of the inner turmoil of the mentally ill, seeking to set the psyche free in poetic verse. I suffer from schizoaffective disorder. Utopian ideals are ever-present as I attempt to explain my situation. I have found my poetry to be a cathartic and therapeutic outlet to regain my composure in living. If I can reach just one soul, I can alter the course of society in whole. If I can change your mind about my kind, then it's plain to see we're both being set free.

Since the mid-1960s, new religious movements--some exotic, some homegrown--have burgeoned all over the United States. A sense of self-awareness and spiritual sensitivity have found expression in the lives of large numbers of people, especially among youth. Why would this happen? What do these movements teach, and what effect do they have on the future? How does religious consciousness relate to other manifestations of social change, such as communal living, group therapy, and radical politics? Beginning in 1971, an extensive research project was undertaken by a team of sociologists, historians, and theologians seeking answers to these questions. Through a combination of interviews and participant observations, they studied new religious and quasi-religious groups in the San Francisco Bay Area, a spawning ground for upwards of one hundred such movements. The New Religious Consciousness opens with reports on three Eastern-based movements: the Healthy, Happy, Holy Organization, Hare Krishna, and Divine Light (more popularly known by the name of its leader, Maharaj Ji). Three quasi-religious movements are then considered: the New Left, the Human Potential Movement (Esalen, EST, Scientology, etc.), and Synanon. Next, three movements having their roots in Western religious traditions are examined: the Christian World Liberation Front (an offshoot of the Jesus Movement), Catholic Charismatic Renewal, and the Church of Satan (whose members believe in witchcraft). Succeeding chapters are devoted to estimating the impact of these movements on established religions and the population at large and to the history of earlier periods of religious ferment in the United States. The book concludes with provocative essays by the editors in which they present separate and differing analyses of the sources, nature, and meaning of the new religious consciousness. A variety of perspectives are represented here: phenomenological, theological, experiential, sociological, and social psychological. The result is a book rich in insight about the nature of new religions. Taken together with a companion volume, Robert Wuthnow's The Consciousness Reformation, also published by University of California Press, The New Religious Consciousness provides the first comprehensive study of American countercultural belief systems.

The call led Geoffrey to perform Mark's gospel as solo theatre in New Zealand, USA, Ireland and Northern Ireland. In reflective and often amusing personal detail, he recalls performances in most New Zealand cities, a thirty-five-day, eighteen-performance walk down New Zealand's South Island in winter (966 km/600 miles), a prison ministry, an encounter with legendary Irish hospitality, an illustrious ancestor in Northern Ireland and a successful online meeting and marriage. He relates his sometimes risky but always rewarding journey with complete acceptance of God's guidance upon it It's not just Geoffrey's journey. He looks at Jesus's with a series of short commentaries that focus on the purpose of every walk with The Lord. A stimulating and accessible post-performance purchase.
