It had been several years since Peter had delivered God?s message at Pentecost. The audience had come from all over the world.There was nothing novel in the message ? it consisted of things any good Jewish person would have known from their childhood. The difference was that this message was accompanied by the power of God?s Spirit. After our Lord?s ascension into heaven (Acts 1.11), Peter labored for his Savior tirelessly to the point of death. He understood well the urgency of the times and he desired to pass that along to as many believers as possible.These two epistles show Peter?s efforts in stirring up those who had been stirred up at Pentecost ? at the birth of the Body of Christ.
A Bible Handbook for Laymen" is not an in-depth theological study, but is a simple handbook with basic information that will help the pastor, Bible student and average church member get a handle on the environment of each Bible book.

Take some time and sit down with your Bible and a pen in hand. Your rewards will be great.

'It's hard to imagine a job that requires less education than that of government minister,' says John Hill. 'It's also hard to imagine a job where the occupant is less likely to seek help than that of government minister.' John Hill knew when he quit as a government minister that what he had learnt - often painfully - over 11 years was likely to disappear with him. So he wrote it down ...

The thought of angels brings about a variety of images. From imaginative cute little flying things that shoot arrows of love into the hearts of the forlorned romantic to the reality of mighty warriors protecting God's glory and holiness, angels have been discussed, described, illustrated and mostly misunderstood. In this volume, the author offers short devotionals which are true to God's Word and descriptive of these mostly unseen attendants. While it is not an exhaustive study, it does cover many of the more frequently asked questions. It is my desire to give biblical evidence for the reality of angels, of their work, and of their true nature.
When we think of devotional readings, our minds often consider attaching a verse, or part of a verse, to a nice story that ends with a thought for the day. We seldom think of readings that would stretch our minds and hearts spiritually-of offering to us something meaty that needs good teeth and a grownup taste. These devotional readings offer meat-a bit more than a "feel-good" bedtime story. Here are some unconventional thoughts for your consideration. "But Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the portion of the king's meat, nor with the wine which he drank: therefore he requested of the prince of the eunuchs that he might not defile himself. " Daniel 1.8
Depraved and insane. Destitute and frantic. Unwholesome and shattered. Characteristics not for the faint of heart, but integral to the vivid portrayals of the marginalized populations living on the fringe of society. Harbors of the Moon''s stories are unconcerned with political correctness, beginning with an look at the comings and goings of a seedy motel and culminating with a minimum-wage laborer''s stark observations of his repellent bosses. In between, you''ll find tales of the oddballs living in American subculture: a Sicilian father ruminating on his Sugar Daughter''s failed engagement, while a tacky nightclub regular settles down with a suspiciously effeminate momma''s boy, to name a few. Connecting them all is a desperate need for something--human connection, however unsavory, or even a sense of meaning in a seemingly absurd world.Harbors of the Moon offers a stunning examination of the authentic human experience, in a style reminiscent of literary great Charles Bukowski.
