First Flew the Raven is a powerful journey through Scripture, tracing the story of Noah, the flood, and the deep spiritual symbolism that reveals the path from death to resurrection life. In the days of Noah, humanity was torn between the raven and the dove, between the flesh that feeds on death and the Spirit that seeks life and peace. The ark became a tomb and a womb, carrying Noah through the flood of judgment into a cleansed world. First went the raven, never returning, content among the dead. Then came the dove, returning with a sign of peace and hope. Through detailed biblical ...

This book is the account of Sister Charlotte's escape from two cloistered convents in which she was held for over twenty-four years in the early 1900s. Read about her horrible treatment, experiences of torture, and self-inflicted brutality in efforts to please God. She gave her testimony as recorded in this book, explaining all the details, over a series of meetings on the West Coast that spanned a week when she spoke of details that have never before been placed in print. She exposes the depths of wickedness that the human soul can endure as well as the heights of glory with which God can ...

What difference would it make to our theology if we knew that Jesus presently rules from every throne that He is ever going to sit upon? All of the prophecies about His Kingdom are in effect already. So many think "Endtime Prophecy" is not important today, and that there are more important things to focus upon now, since those things have not even happened yet. They’re about the future. But what if the Kingdom prophecies of Christ’s dominion were already fulfilled millennia ago? With all of the New Testament focus upon leading of the Spirit, overcoming sin, Satan, the world, and even ...

The Lord's Prayer must be the most well-known prayer in all of mankind's history. How many billions of people have prayed in this manner for the last two thousand years? But what is not so well-known is that after the prayer was laid out to the disciples, Jesus Christ took each element from it and detailingly explained what it involved in the same sequence in which it is found in the prayer, itself! By the time He finished explaining the details of the prayer, Jesus said those who seek the Father in this manner, covering all these bases, will live an absolutely indestructible Christian life...

For centuries, passionate believers have wrestled with the role of the Old Covenant Law in the life of a New Covenant believer. Some cling to feast days and Sabbaths as eternal truths. Others claim freedom from the Law, yet still strive to walk in holiness. Both sides seek to honour God—but what does Scripture really say? In this bold and deeply contextual exploration, Days, Months & Years cuts through centuries of religious tradition to bring clarity straight from the Word. With a focus on Paul’s letter to the Galatians—especially chapters 3 and 4—this book uncovers the powerful ...

Psalm 110:1 is the most oft-quoted Old Testament verse in the New Testament. It is the Kingdom Scripture in the Bible. Mike Blume shows how the Lord’s Prayer is intimately linked to this most important Psalm of David. Paul’s letter to the Ephesians, Isaiah’s prophecy and the Book of Revelation open this truth up tremendously. Learn how Prayer is vital to see satan’s kingdom displaced by God’s. While Jesus told us to pray, “Thy Kingdom come,” the Book of Revelation reads, “Now is come… the Kingdom of our God and the power of His Christ.” Learn how this is fulfilled by ...

Nach jüdischer Überlieferung begründete Sem, Sohn Noahs, die Tradition der "semitischen" Schriftreligion, aus der u.a. das Judentum und Christentum sowie der Islam entstanden. Gegen diese weltverändernde Kraft der Schriftreligionen stemmten sich Gegenmythen, die den Zusammenhalt, die Bildungserfolge sowie den Kinderreichtum von Juden und anderen Semiten als bedrohliche Verschwörungen deuteten.

Der Islam scheint selbstbewusst zu expandieren. Doch das Gegenteil ist der Fall. Der Religionswissenschaftler Michael Blume erklärt das Szenario als Symptom einer weltweiten tiefen Krise des Islams. Er zeigt: Es ist nicht einmal mehr klar, wie viele Muslime es tatsächlich noch gibt. Michael Blume verweist auf massive Säkularisierungsprozesse in der islamischen Welt. Er benennt, was die einstige Hochkultur in Krisen und Kriege stürzen ließ.

Jesus was crucified at the third hour of the day. The sun went dark three hours later at noon and stayed dark until He died at the ninth hour. Half the time was clear and half was unclear. As though a time of clarity was followed by mystery, we find a spiritual message that really comes to the forefront in light of the conversions of Saul of Tarsus and Cornelius of Italy. Astounding parallels and amazing correlations between those men's conversions and even between the very hours that were associated with these men's salvation and Christ's crucifixion reveal serious issues that all of us as...

Take A Bite of Eternal Life — and step into God’s original plan for you. What if the story of Eden wasn’t just about the past—but a blueprint for your future? From the Tree of Life in Genesis to the river flowing through the New Jerusalem in Revelation, God’s purpose for humanity has never changed. In Take A Bite of Eternal Life, you’ll discover that what was lost in the Garden is being restored in Christ—and you’re invited to walk in it now. This isn’t just a book about theology.

John 17:20 “Neither pray I for these alone, but for them also which shall believe on me through their word;” In the powerful statement above, we read about Jesus putting His seal of approval on the apostles whom He entrusted to carry on His message after He ascended into heaven. Jesus was able to do this because of His foreknowledge of their future. If they would have strayed from His original intent for them to preach His unadulterated Word, He would have foreknown it, and accordingly would not have directed us to believe on Him through their word. Knowing this important truth, we can ...

Going deeper into Paul's message to the Romans, we learn how the Spirit of God empowers us to cease fulfilling the lusts of our flesh. More than serving God, the methodology with which we serve Him is shown to make all the difference in our Christian lives. Learn how progress in our behaviour, inspired by the Spirit, marks true spirituality. As the Ark of the Covenant was central in Israel's relationship to God, God's Spirit is key to our existence as believers. Old Testament accounts of Esther, Daniel and Joshua's conquest of Jericho are referenced to help explain the deep truths related ...

From the king’s choice of Esther, to her plan to thwart the genocide of the Jews in Syria, all of the experiences of Esther and her uncle, Mordecai, show us lessons of how we can overcome battles in life, based upon truth found in the Book of Hebrews. Learn how to apply the work of the cross to your everyday life’s struggles and challenges. So many focus on how to get saved,...

The doctrine of Resurrection is diversely understood today. Is it going to be physical or non-physical? What is a spiritual body? This book digs into the depth of the Word of God, delving into the overall point of the human race from before the time of Adam, how it’s not abandoned since the fall of Adam, and when and why the resurrection will take place. Apostle Paul asked the question that was immediately followed by the core distinction that separates truth from error concerning this subject: 1 Corinthians 15:35-36 But some man will say, How are the dead raised up? and with what body do...

What kind of faith can stand when everything else falls? Jesus declared He would build His church on the Rock—not on human opinion or tradition, but on the revelation of who He truly is. But that was just the beginning. In this life-changing book, you’ll discover the powerful truth that the Rock is more than just belief—it’s a life transformed by divine revelation. First, the Father revealed Jesus as the Son of God. Then Jesus revealed what we must do: take up our cross, deny ourselves, and follow Him. When Peter accepted the revelation of Christ’s identity but resisted the call ...
