Description from the Book • This book is about how the Bible describes Satan; for example, he was evil from the beginning, and what the Bible says about his story. Christian culture occupies the largest chapter in the book and is modified from previous books. Topics include the commandments of the Apostles and the proper physical appearance in society. • A chapter on the nature of God follows the chapter on culture. Next is a chapter on the use of idols and how people love to lie about their idol usage. Instructions on how to and how not to interpret scripture compose the next chapter, followed by a chapter on how to hold a Christian service or meeting. Also, information designed to help you start a Christian community is provided. • The purpose of this book is to assist in bringing back to life Christianity. We differentiate Christianity from Chruchianity and religions claiming to be Christian. For example, those who extort money from you with guilt, shame, and false promises to build their own wealth, power, and legacy are neither honest Christians nor true believers. • This book focuses on the Christian story of Satan. • To develop your spiritual skills, read Life Skills: 10 Spiritual Skills and Spiritual Surrender’s Seven Steps. • To rediscover the Christian life, read The Seventh Way, Second Edition, Christian Idols, and Christian Scripture.

Your God is Too Glorious


Book Description

Most of us are regular people who have good days and bad days. Our lives are radically ordinary and unexciting. That means they're the kind of lives God gets excited about. While the world worships beauty and power and wealth, God hides his glory in the simple, the mundane, the foolish, working in unawesome people, things, and places.In our day of celebrity worship and online posturing, this is a refreshing, even transformative way of understanding God and our place in his creation. It urges us to treasure a life of simplicity, to love those whom the world passes by, to work for God's glory rather than our own. And it demonstrates that God has always been the Lord of the cross--a Savior who hides his grace in unattractive, inglorious places.Your God Is Too Glorious reminds readers that while a quiet life may look unimpressive to the world, it's the regular, everyday people that God tends to use to do his most important work.




SATAN'S UNDERGROUND


Book Description

Lauren Stratford's story is one that everyone needs to read, though it deals with a subject most of us would rather not discuss, a subject that for many is too horrendous even to believe. Lauren Stratford lived a life of unending nightmares. As a small child she was offered sexually to strange men. Soon after, she was forced into a torturous routine of pornography, was controlled by mind- and body-altering drugs, and constantly received threats to her life. Though she sought help several times from adults she thought could be trusted with her secrets, no one was willing to risk becoming involved. After years of suffering what many would call the ultimate evil of sexual abuse, Lauren was held captive in the even more appalling world of Satanism and ritual abuse. Forced to participate in some of the most evil satanic rituals imaginable, Lauren was witness to shocking crimes against children and others, all performed in the name of Satan. Tormented sexually and mentally by the cult members, Lauren survived the torture because of her strong faith in God and her belief that He would deliver her from the evil of which she had become a part. It is an undisputed fact that this type of abuse occurs in the world today. Through this shocking story, anyone who is caught in the trap of sexual or ritual abuse can learn that there is a way out--that with the help of God and others, victims like Lauren can break free. Parents, counselors, law-enforcement personnel, and anyone who may know of or suspect a case of abuse will find in this book invaluable advice.
