Jeden Tag endlos lange To-do-Listen. Das hektische Tempo des modernen Lebens. Der stetige Kampf, als Unternehmen am Markt relevant zu bleiben. Die sehr reale Bedrohung von Superbazillen und Terroranschlägen in unserem Alltag... Es ist unschwer zu erkennen, weshalb heutzutage so viele Menschen unter Stress, Sorgen und Angstattacken leiden.

This short 19th-century book explores the evolution of the belief in the Devil, including historical, cultural, and religious influences. Who is this character Satan? Is he an adversary of man working on behalf of the Divine? Is he the archenemy of God, a hideous personification of the worst evil? Does the Devil truly exist, or is this a convenient way to rid humans of personal responsibility for their own evil inclinations? Revisiting the witch burnings in the Middle Ages—justified by alleged allegiance to a dark lord—the author questions the efficacy of such a belief.

"The Spirit of Christmas" is a collection of Henry Van Dyke's thoughts on the subject. "Power corrupts itself, and might cannot save. The Earth is full of ignorant strife, and for this evil there is no cure but by the giving of greater knowledge. It is because men do not understand evil that they yield themselves to its power. Wickedness is folly in action, and injustice is the error of the blind. It is because men are ignorant that they destroy one another, and at last themselves. If there were more light in the world there would be no sorrow."

Obadiah is a prophecy of judgment on Edom - descendants of Esau who bore a grudge against Judah, the descendants of Jacob. The Edomites viewed all the wealth and prosperity of Judah as rightfully theirs. This centuries-old envy caused them to seek every opportunity to do harm to God’s people. St. Augustine saw in Obadiah an early example of the City of Man opposing the City of God. R. J. Rushdoony brings the conflict even closer, condemning the “spiritual Edomites” of our day who believe evildoers have the power to frustrate the progress of the Kingdom of God.

Several years ago the Lord told me that I would write a book on Faith. I thought I knew what it would contain, I’m finding now that many chapters needed to be written in my life before I could dispense them to anyone else. In those days, faith was all about the supernatural life that resulted in miracles and healings and such things. In those days, it was enough to trust God for provision. Externally, some might conclude those are the most vital aspects of faith, but they are simply surface compared to knowing Him and the faith that He calls into my our lives on a daily basis. It is this ...

We live in an age of practical atheism where men pay lip service to God and then do as they please. Our time is marked by a failure to meet our responsibility while believing that nothing will happen—that God will not judge His church as He’s judged His people throughout history. As we know, judgment begins at the house of God because the church bears the greater burden of guilt for possessing the greater privileges of God’s covenant, grace, salvation, and courage.

Pray Before Reading is a biblical expedition that takes the listener on a journey through time and space, exploring the limitless imagination of God that is revealed to us in the Bible. This is an in-depth study of two different realities, two different realms of creation—the spiritual realm and the physical realm, the heavens and the earth. The author explores how these realms coexist and operate, separate, yet vitally connected.

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that there is in Matthew a thoughtful and carefully nuanced description of the activity of the Spirit. Specifically, Matthew is very careful to note that the eschatological redemption he describes in his Gospel is the direct result of the operation of the Spirit of God. Matthew does tend to be economical in his references to the Spirit, and this has no doubt contributed to the perception that he is not interested in matters of pneumatology. Yet such a cursory statistical assessment should not be permitted to obscure what is an important ...
