Mankind lives in an analog universe, the Physical World, where there is time, gravity, speed, distance, and location. Comparisons and communication of physical properties are the only world we know. Everything is on a continuum, from small to large, from minor to serious, from near to far. Time is our ruler. But God lives in a digital world of right and wrong, good and bad, sinful or sinless. There is no in between. The Spiritual Realm has no time, location, weight, or distance. God, and Christ with Him, can be everywhere at once, God was not created and will not die, there are no ...

As the times change and many more brothers and sisters recognize that God is giving us the glory and opportunity to help others recognize the love that he has for us we continue to see more of our brothers and sisters be saved and put up on the right path that God has laid out for us with his powerful grace and mercy. As we also continue our journey and we grow in major numbers to follow our savior Jesus Christ it will be God's will to lift up anyone who recognizes Jesus Christ as our savior as well as those who are blind to the light of life that he will lead us to our father in heaven.

Apocalypse of Mark is a Christian book written in the ancient style of apocalyptic literature and designed to be listened to like a short narrative book one would find in the Bible like Job, Ruth, or Esther. Narrator John Mark presents a linear retelling of the Biblical meta-narrative, heavily quoting from and alluding to the Biblical text. Beginning prior to creation and ending in the "new heavens and Earth" incorporating enigmatic Biblical passages, it demonstrates how they are indispensable to the overall redemption story.

The Four Loves (1960) by C. S. Lewis explores the nature of love from a Christian theological perspective. Making a careful distinction between “like” and “love", the author first defines the terms. The discussion is based on four Greek words for love: storgē, philía, éros, and agápe. These four types are friendship, affection, erotic love, and charity, or the love of God. Lewis defines each of these types of love and how they affect our lives. Lewis considers affection, friendship, and eros as natural loves, while charity is supernatural since it is closest to the form of love which is defined by the expression “God is love”. Lewis examines each of the four loves in detail, including their benefits and potential dangers.

"Un jour, ils sont là. Un jour, sans aucun souci de l'heure. On ne sait pas d'où ils viennent, ni pourquoi ni comment ils sont entrés. Ils entrent toujours ainsi, à l'improviste et par effraction. Et cela sans faire de bruit, sans dégâts apparents. Ils ont une stupéfiante discrétion de passe-muraille. Ils : les personnages. On ignore tout d'eux, mais d'emblée on sent qu'ils vont durablement imposer leur présence." S. G. D'où viennent les personnages des romans et quel chemin suivent-ils dans l'esprit de l'écrivaine ?

This book is inspirational and spiritual in scope and nature. I can think of no time in human history where the need for God is more apparent than today. This is an offering to the vacuum of plurality...the emptiness of doubt. There is a living God, and he has already come - hope for all mankind. A Savior to save us from ourselves. Do you truly desire to have "a closer walk with God"? Then open your heart to his truth...the living God of Israel herself and his chosen people (our brothers and sisters).

What was it that Jesus did that made some people hate him so much as to try to kill him? What was his message? Although there were those who sought to kill Jesus, he had a large following.

Kim tries to answer through his poetry. These poems will move you in ways that you have not imagined possible.

Before the beginning, there existed the Holy Trinity; Father Son and Spirit. Together, they called forth the Heavens and the Earth. Heaven was a celestial abode for the Heavenly beings, and Earth, a desolate waste. The first sons of God were the angels, magnificent beings who inhabited the Heavens. There was great joy and glory in Heaven, however, there was one amongst them who would plunge the entire world into darkness.

Incentivadas pelo racionalismo, que busca desvalorizar a experiência, muitas vertentes do cristianismo passaram a desenvolver teologias que explicassem a fé usando apenas a razão. Isso nos fez esquecer que, antes de tudo, Deus se apresenta nas Escrituras como o grande artista criador. De acordo com Makoto Fujimura—brilhante e reconhecido artista plástico—a resposta a esse movimento não deve ser um abandono da teologia, mas sim entendermos que, por meio das boas-novas do evangelho, da morte e da ressurreição de Jesus, somos parte da sua Nova Criação.

The big questions in life: Who am I? What is my purpose? Where do I find the answers? When will I die? Why am I here? How do I know what's true? The who, what, where, when, why, and how of your life, of my life, of anyone’s life. Whenever I pick up medications at the pharmacy, I’m asked, “Do you have any questions?” If it's someone new, I give the response, “Only existential ones, and we have to answer those for ourselves.” A philosopher, a physician, a recovering addict, a poet, a dreamer, a believer.
