Book Description
Find your faction with this aptitude test! Ever wonder what faction you'd be placed in if you were a part of the bestselling Divergent series? Would you be dauntless like Christina, erudite like Caleb, or divergent like Tris? Filled with hundreds of personality questions, this book guides you through different scenarios to help you demonstrate your virtues, uncover your strengths, and discover your true faction. You'll go through the rigorous process of determining what group you belong to--the Abnegation (the selfless), Amity (the peaceful), Candor (the honest), Dauntless (the Brave), or Erudite (the intellectual)--or if you're divergent and best suited for more than one faction. Your results will also detail why you belong in that division and how your life will change upon initiation. Complete with advice for being the best member of your faction, The Unofficial Divergent Aptitude Test challenges you to prove that you have what it takes to live in Tris's world.

The Heavenlies
Author: Stan Nix
Publisher: Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.
ISBN: 1098057635
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 228
Book Description
The Heavenlies is a story of the third heaven spoken about by Paul. In Christianity, heaven is traditionally the location of the throne of God as well as the holy angels. In most forms of Christianity, heaven is also understood as the abode for the righteous dead in the afterlife, usually a temporary stage before the resurrection of the dead and the saints' return to the New Earth. In 1 Corinthians 2:9, it is stated that no mind can imagine what magnificent things are in store for us there. The author uses many biblical scriptures to back up the fictional stories he created to where one can believe that this may be what it is really like. Christians get new bodies with no infirmities. They have many lost treasures restored, such as friends and relationships. This is a one-of-a-kind book that opens one's eyes about heaven and shows how works on earth did not get one to heaven, but they reap their heavenly rewards from their good works done.
