Bully, Bully, Back Off Me
I just hope that my book will inspire someone and to give them convenient to overcome any obstacle. There is so much bullying in our world today, not taking the time to get to know the person, their wisdom, their intelligence, and their harmony, before they're so quickly judged by their appearance. We all came face-to-face with hindrances or barriers in our life. It takes time to get the courage to jump over that hurdle to develop the strength to stand tall. (T. D. Jakes is my inspiration: Allow your enemy be your step stool.) Native words flow like a river. It has no end. Don't allow yourself to sink in the flow of water surrounded by words that has no meaning. Your fight is not against the words that hold your head underwater. Your fight is the fight of survival to rise above the water. Put your hand on your heart. Take a look in the mirror. Your heart beat for you. Love yourself!

Has the Bible Been Changed?
Muslims all over the world are ignoring the message of the New Testament because their teachers say its text has been corrupted. Yet very few of them have checked to see whether what their teachers say is true. - David Byle, chairman of the Bible Correspondence Course in Turkey (bccturkey.org) What does it take to persuade an entire Islamic nation to recall and rewrite their religious education materials in order to no longer teach that the Bible has been changed? Only one thing: the Qur'an itself. The Qur'an clearly states that the Bible has not been changed and, even more shockingly, says that anyone who teaches that the Bible has been changed is in fact doomed to hell. This book, Has the Bible Been Changed?, was the reason that in 1996 the Department of Religious Affairs in Turkey recalled their existing teaching materials. As you explore these pages, you will see exactly what the Qur'an says that is so powerful that even Islamic leaders are caused to reverse course. But this book is not persuasive with many words. Rather, it shows the reader Scripture verses and other pertinent facts that will help lead one to the ultimate Truth, that there is indeed only one God, and the way to Him is through His Son, Jesus Christ. It behooves you to read this book to know that you can put your faith and confidence in the entire Bible, that it is indeed the unchangeable, inerrant Word of God.
