Book Description
In this 2006 text, Daniel M. Gurtner examines the meaning of the rending of the veil at the death of Jesus in Matthew 27:51a by considering the functions of the veil in the Old Testament and its symbolism in Second Temple and Rabbinic Judaism. Gurtner incorporates these elements into a compositional exegesis of the rending text in Matthew. He concludes that the rending of the veil is an apocalyptic assertion like the opening of heaven revealing, in part, end-time images drawn from Ezekiel 37. Moreover, when the veil is torn Matthew depicts the cessation of its function, articulating the atoning role of Christ's death which gives access to God not simply in the sense of entering the Holy of Holies (as in Hebrews), but in trademark Matthean Emmanuel Christology: 'God with us'. This underscores the significance of Jesus' atoning death in the first gospel.

Book Description
Have you ever wondered if the Apostle Judas Iscariot went to heaven or hell? Without Judas, could there have been the body and blood sacrifice and the resurrection that, as all Judeo-Christians believe, was the ultimate price for our salvation? Did God destine Judas, even before his birth, to be mankind’s representative at this sacrificial altar that caused the oblation of “The Lamb of God?” Judas: The Man From Kerioth examines this possibility and draws it’s own conclusion from established biblical information. It is a long overdue life story of the most misunderstood Apostle, chosen by God to help fulfill biblical prophecy. While some of Judas Iscariot’s life is developed fictionally in this novel for continuity, it closely follows all that is presently known about him today. This book is not intended to change anyone’s mind or their own beliefs. It is only intended to examine other possibilities that can be supported by biblical writings just as well as any other conclusion.

Book Description
This book takes place in three countries: Cambodia, Thailand, and United States of America. It is about how God has been good to me: before I knew him, when I first got to know him, and now that I am walking under his guidance. Paragraph 1: Before I Knew God (in the Killing Field) They are going to kill me in two days. One of the killers, we never met before. He could not rest. He came to me three times that day to tell me what I should do and what his plan was. I did escape successfully with the help of a nice and kind unknown person who was willing to put himself at risk to save me. I was at the care center. There are only two patients, the first-class citizen lady and me. She cannot sleep, and I cannot lie down to sleep. The day that they made the decision to kill me, she is the one who spoke for me and saved my life. What made these three people turn around and risk themselves to save my life? Paragraph 2: Introduced to Lord Jesus (in the Refugee Camp) I was injured by the bomb and was in the hospital for more than two months. At the lowest time in life, I was introduced to God by a Seventh Day Adventist missionary who brought slides about Lord Jesus to the ward where I stayed and by the group of healing service. Paragraph 3: Walking by faith (in United States of America) I was baptized at the end of 1994 after the Lord spoke to me out loud, Sorya! Its time for you to get baptized. Since then he has always watched over me and my family. He protected us, provided for us, blessed us, healed us, carried us, led us, guided us, gave us miracle after miracle. He let me hear his voice from time to time. He gave me visions and more. Walking by Faith is written in eighty-eight chapters. Each chapter has one page telling of what God has done for my family and my life, either a miracle of healing or calling for fasting or foretelling what is going to happen, a vision, or just about how God supernaturally answered our prayers, backed up with verses in the Bible. Conclusion: This book is not a story. It is a testimony about how good God is. How real, how powerful, and how merciful he is. This book is simply written to give God glory for all he has done for my family and me and to give others hope in God or to reconsider their faith. If you find in your heart that it is your call to help to make this book be used as a testimony for the world, please give our God the glory. Thank you! May God richly bless you in everything you do!
