Book Description
Don't Be Ignorant of Satan's Devices came to me in a night vision. The Lord literally showed me the book. It was around 2:30-3:00 a.m., and I awoke with a clear sense of the presence of the Holy Spirit. The book seemed to be suspended in air before my eyes. When I saw my name on the cover, a Holy Ghost thrill ran through me like fire. Then the Lord showed that DON'T was an acronym. D is for division, O is for offense, N is for negativity, and the T is for timidity. He gave me a base scripture for each letter, and I quickly wrote down the notes. Since there is so much scripture in the book, it is very possible that someone could be saved through reading it. Yet the purpose of the book is to educate Christians about Satan's schemes and tricks. In the writing of this book, I have attempted to compare scripture with scripture since only the Word is the absolute truth. At times, it may seem that I am pounding the nail right through the board, so to speak. Yet it is my heart's desire to teach the whole counsel of God on every subject which I attempt to teach. Even though it was written from prison and the incidents related in the book occurred in prison, the teachings contained in this book apply to all Christians. Paul wrote that "We are not ignorant of Satan's devices." Yet today, March 30, 2020, much of the church in America allows Satan to divide the church, to steal our power, to kill our effectiveness, and to destroy our witness. We must learn to work together as one body of Christ. Wake up, church! Don't be ignorant of Satan's devices!

Deliberate Ignorance
Author: Ralph HertwigPublisher: MIT Press
ISBN: 0262045591
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 398
Book Description
Psychologists, economists, historians, computer scientists, sociologists, philosophers, and legal scholars explore the conscious choice not to seek information. The history of intellectual thought abounds with claims that knowledge is valued and sought, yet individuals and groups often choose not to know. We call the conscious choice not to seek or use knowledge (or information) deliberate ignorance. When is this a virtue, when is it a vice, and what can be learned from formally modeling the underlying motives? On which normative grounds can it be judged? Which institutional interventions can promote or prevent it? In this book, psychologists, economists, historians, computer scientists, sociologists, philosophers, and legal scholars explore the scope of deliberate ignorance.
What Love Is This?

ISBN: 9781928660125
Category : Calvinism
Languages : en
Pages : 590
Book Description
Many sincere, Bible-believing Christians are Calvinists only by default. Thinking that the only choice is between Calvinism (with its presumed doctrine of eternal security) and Arminianism (with its teaching that salvation can be lost), and confident of Christ's promise to keep eternally those who believe in Him, they therefore consider themselves to be Calvinists. It takes only a few simple questions to discover that most Christians are largely unaware of what John Calvin and his early followers of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries actually believed and practiced. Nor do they fully understand what most of today's leading Calvinists believe. Although there are disputed variations of the Calvinist doctrine, among its chief proponents (whom we quote extensively in context) there is general agreement on certain core beliefs. Many evangelicals who think they are Calvinists will be surprised to learn of Calvin's belief in salvation through infant baptism and of his grossly un-Christian behavior, at times, as the "Protestant Pope" of Geneva, Switzerland. Most shocking of all, however, is Calvinism's misrepresentation of God, who "is love." It is our prayer that this volume will enable readers to examine more carefully the vital issues involved and to follow God's holy Word--not man's teachings. "The first edition of this book was greeted by fervent opposition and criticism from Calvinists. In this enlarged and revised edition I have endeavored to respond to the critics." --Dave Hunt
The New Testament of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ
Author: Understanding Ignorance
Author: Daniel R. DeNicolaPublisher: MIT Press
ISBN: 0262036444
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 264
Book Description
Ignorance is trending. Politicians boast, "I'm not a scientist." Angry citizens object to a proposed state motto because it is in Latin, and "This is America, not Mexico or Latin America." Lack of experience, not expertise, becomes a credential. Fake news and repeated falsehoods are accepted and shape firm belief. Ignorance about American government and history is so alarming that the ideal of an informed citizenry now seems quaint. Conspiracy theories and false knowledge thrive. This may be the Information Age, but we do not seem to be well informed. In this book, philosopher Daniel DeNicola explores ignorance -- its abundance, its endurance, and its consequences.
