The Two Altars
Author: Robert Arthur Elam -. Ph. D.
Publisher: Xulon Press
ISBN: 1615798501
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 378
Book Description
The book deals with the subject of the Tabernacle and its two altars. The study seeks to apply the concepts of these two altars to churches and individual Christians of today. The study deals with salvation, and priesthood. We enter into the Holy place before God and because of God for a purpose. Our place is in front of the Golden Altar where we are to praise God, pray, supplicate and intercede for others. Dr. Robert Elam is now a retired missionary living in Florida after spending thirty-six years on the mission field of Brazil. There he worked with the people in starting churches and teaching in Bible Institutes. He has taught the Tabernacle, one of his favorite subjects, from entrance to the mercy seat several times and has used the material time after time to witness to people about their need for salvation. He is listed in the Princeton Premier Business Leaders and Professional catalogue for 2008-2009-2010 listings. He has taught from coast to coast and has written essays on several subjects, one being printed on the site (CreationDesign.org.): "The Body-an Engineering Masterpiece." Another series of lectures was written on Evolution: A Perfect Creation verses a Continual Evolution. Dr; Robert Elam has created and taught courses like Comparative Theology and Baptist History: reading between the lines of History. Dr. Elam graduated from Baptist Bible College in 1967 after studying three years in Electrical Engineering at the University of New Mexico in Albuquerque. Seeing the need to get a more advanced degree, Robert went to the Louisiana Baptist University in Shreveport and finished his Masters in 2000 and his doctorate in 2002. He has also translated this book into Portuguese and desires to publish the book in Brazil.

Jewel in the Ashes
Author: Brian D. Ruppert
Publisher: BRILL
ISBN: 1684173388
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 535
Book Description
Focusing on the ninth to the fourteenth centuries, this study analyzes the ways in which relics functioned as material media for the interactions of Buddhist clerics, the imperial family, lay aristocrats, and warrior society and explores the multivocality of relics by dealing with specific historical examples. Brian Ruppert argues that relics offered means for reinforcing or subverting hierarchical relations. The author's critical literary and anthropological analyses attest to the prominence of relic veneration in government, in lay practice associated with the maintenance of the imperial line and warrior houses, and in the promotion of specific Buddhist sects in Japan.

Alexander the Great
Author: Lewis Vance Cummings
Publisher: Grove Press
ISBN: 9780802141491
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 484
Book Description
Reissued to coincide with the release of Oliver Stone's epic movie on Alexander the Great (slated for fall 2004) and the Summer Olympics in Greece, Lewis Cummings's comprehensive and readable biography of Alexander the Great gives us the full portrait of this brilliant and tyrannical leader. A sagacious ruler and a volatile, often violent commander, a sensuous youth and a paradigm of chastity, Alexander the Great of Macedonia remains one of the most fascinating and contradictory figures in world history. Son of King Philip and the tempestuous Queen Olympia, educated by Aristotle himself, a swift succession of military victories gave him an empire that extended from Greece to India. From his first conquest in northern Greece at the age of sixteen, to a swift succession of victories over Macedonia, Egypt, Persia, and Asia, Alexander possessed almost inhuman energy and hubris that defied Zeus himself, until his death at the age of thirty-two. Alexander the Great is an epic history of a man who became one of the most heralded rulers and despised geniuses of all time.

Altar Ego

Publisher: Zondervan
ISBN: 0310333725
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 213
Book Description
Discover your true identity in Christ. Many of us live for the approval of others. We let the world decide who we are, or we look to those around us to discover who we think we’d like to be. The problem is that living for what people think of you is the quickest way to forget what God thinks of you. In Altar Ego, pastor and author of Winning the War in Your Mind Craig Groeschel will show you how to sacrifice your broken ideas of approval-based identity on the altar of God’s truth and become who you were meant to be in Christ. You'll learn how to: Expose false labels and selfish motives. Live according to God's higher values with a deeper confidence in His calling. Trade in your broken ego and unleash your “altar” ego as a living sacrifice to Him. Understand how God continuously shapes you into His vision of you. Once you know your true identity and are growing in Christ-like character, then you can behave accordingly with bold behavior, bold prayers, bold words, and bold obedience. Altar Ego reveals who God says you are, and then calls you to live up to it. Rather than living a timid, halfhearted, shallow cultural Christianity, you'll boldly live in the confidence of the God who believes in you.
