We live in a culture where there is no time for ourselves. We need to slow down and make time for ourselves. Make time for the Lord. Everybody is self-sufficient in everything these days. We need to have the right attitude in our service to the Lord. God's strategy for successful living character is more important than intelligence. The Bible is God's word to man, not man's word about God. God's word reveals the purpose and plan for man. Satan is conditioning us for what he is bringing in the future, to make it look acceptable. God meant for sex to build a bond between a man and a woman in marriage, but man can pervert anything. Sex is one of the most powerful things humans have to deal with. The seventy weeks of Daniel: the cross is at the end of the sixty-two weeks, the cross is at the beginning of the seven weeks, and the cross is in the middle of the final week. The cross is what ties this prophecy together. The church age was put into place to reach the lost. Christ had five things to say about each of the seven church ages: description, commendation, criticism, instruction, and promises. Before Christ is the Tribulation period. After Christ is the End-Time Tribulation period. The Great Tribulation starts with the trumpets and goes until the return of Christ. The purpose of the Bible is to reveal Jesus Christ as the Messiah. Heaven and hell are real places. With one, we will always be with God, and with the other, we will always be separated from God. Both will be forever.

The increased movement of people globally has changed the face of national and international schooling. Higher levels of mobility have resulted from both the willing movement of students and their families with a desire to create a better life, and the forced movement of refugee families travelling away from war, famine and other extreme circumstances. This book explores the idea that the complex connections created by the forces of globalisation have led to a diminishing difference between what were once described as international schools and national schools. By examining a selection of responses from students attending international schools in Brazil, the United Kingdom, France, Germany, the Philippines and Switzerland, the book discusses key issues surrounding identity and cosmopolitan senses of belonging. Chapters draw from current literature and recent qualitative research to highlight the concerns that students face within the international school community, including social, psychological, and academic difficulties. The interviews provide a rich and unique body of knowledge, demonstrating how perceptions of identity and belonging are changing, especially with affiliation to a national or a global identity. The notion that international students have become global citizens through their affiliation to a global rather than a national identity exhibits a changing and potentially irreversible trend. Global Identity in Multicultural and International Educational Contexts will be of key interest to researchers, academics and policy makers involved with international schooling and globalised education.
