Book Description
Are you a Thief? Yes, I am a thief or was at one time. That may seem strange to most people but that was actually what I was. To give you a perspective it is like a very rich man attending a soup kitchen or going to a food handout organization where the poor or hungry and homeless depend on food made available to them. He goes there every day, taking away and storing food that is needed by the poor. The food provided to the poor is a blessing but for the rich man, it is theft of a blessing not meant for him. While we could go full political at this point and talk about things like taxes and laws, that is not the purpose of my confession of being a thief of God’s property. Also, the purpose of this blog is for you to answer the question “Are you a thief as well”? Like me, you may have spent your whole life never actually thinking that thought. Like me, you may have been happy with your state in life. All was well? Or was it?

Book Description
The Friend of God "And the scripture was fulfilled which saith, Abraham believed God, and it was imputed unto him for righteousness: and he was called the Friend of God." (James 2:23) In every instance where you find the word "believe" in either testament, it involves trust, obedience, fidelity, and behavior. To believe and not conform to that belief is unbelief! James is plain-spoken, allowing little room for modern word parsers to twist his meanings. In another verse, James plainly says faith without works is dead. If we are to believe James, then it's clear that faith and belief prescribe submission for our own good to the loving rule of divine authority, else they are--dead! The Prescription is not intended to be an entertaining storybook; rather it is a study book teaching righteous government. It is a commentary on those aspects of the books of Moses that pertain mostly to godly government; personal, community, institutional, and state government. Although it addresses some religious aspects, its focus is upon the underlying principles of conduct which are both universal and eternal, whether one agrees with them or not. Wherever there are two or more in close proximity, there must be understanding and agreement in order to maintain harmony, without which either tyranny or anarchy will rule by force. Anyone who disregards God's loving instructions for righteous behavior cannot rightly call himself the friend of God. This malady can be remedied by applying godly principles revealed in The Prescription.

Book Description
This book is a comprehensive treatise on the concept of a right, or entitlement from the time of the ancient Greeks to the present. The author follows the evolution of a right from philosophical concept to its adoption in the late twentieth century. He is especially interested in teh development and current state of a natural right, which he defines to be the combination of laws that harmonize the workings of the universe, including our own little corner of it, as designed by God.

Book Description
Major innovations have occurred in the study of biblical law in recent decades. The legal material of the Pentateuch has received new interest with detailed studies of specific biblical passages. The comparison of biblical practice to ancient Near Eastern customs has received a new impetus with the concentration on texts from actual ancient legal transactions. The Oxford Handbook of Biblical Law provides a state of the art analysis of the major questions, principles, and texts pertinent to biblical law. The thirty-three chapters, written by an international team of experts, deal with the concepts, significant texts, institutions, and procedures of biblical law; the intersection of law with religion, socio-economic circumstances, and politics; and the reinterpretation of biblical law in the emerging Jewish and Christian communities. The volume is intended to introduce non-specialists to the field as well as to stimulate new thinking among scholars working in biblical law.
