    At the end of His earthly ministry, Jesus called his disciples together and gave them His final command for their lives and ministries. Matthew 28:18-20 records Jesus saying, "All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen." Jesus had a specific purpose and plan for His disciples in His absence. They were to represent Him to the world around them by teaching the nations of His Gospel of salvation, baptizing those who believed as a public testimony of their faith and then teaching the believers to observe, or put into practice, His teachings (Mark 16:15-16).In Bible times, the title disciple was given to students of a religious teacher. It was expected that such students would not simply learn the information that their teacher provided but also that they would "observe" or diligently apply that teaching to their daily lives so that they would begin to live like him (Matthew 28:20). That is why the apostle John recorded Jesus as saying "to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed" (John 8:31). He later added, "By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another" (John 13:35). Finally, He stated, "Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be my disciples" (John 15:8). Jesus expects all those who believe on Him to become His disciples by learning and living according to His Word, displaying His love, and glorifying God the Father by allowing Him to produce spiritual fruit in their lives (Luke 14:21-33).One of the primary words used in the New Testament and within Christianity today to describe how a disciple of Jesus Christ is to "observe" His commandments is the word walk. In this context the word walk takes on its figurative meaning of making consistent choices, based on one's beliefs, that form a direction of life for either good or evil, resulting in a habitual lifestyle.It is the purpose of this Bible study to address the forty-seven uses of the word walk in their thirty-two passages, to highlight ten specific biblical truths that should be applied to each believer's daily activities so that the believer can truly be one of Christ's disciples and represent Him to the world.

    Kiedy w czerwcu 1940 roku Królestwo Wloch przystąpilo do wojny w Europie, zrobilo to tylko na chwilę, by przyspieszyc upadek Francji i zmusic Wielką Brytanię do negocjacji pokojowych. Z każdym kolejnym miesiącem okazywalo się jednak, że Wlosi wplątali się w wojnę, która nie mogla zakończyc się ani szybko, ani zwycięsko, a stan ich wlasnego nieprzygotowania do konfliktu byl zatrważający. Co oczywiste, wojna rozprzestrzenila się również na odleglą dla Europejczyków Afrykę Wschodnią, gdzie ścieraly się interesy mocarstw kolonialnych. To wlaśnie tam, we wloskich koloniach w Rogu Afryki sytuacja Regio Esercito okazala się najtrudniejsza. Tamtejsze oddzialy, skladające się w większości z tubylców, byly fatalnie uzbrojone, wyszkolone jedynie na potrzeby wojny kolonialnej i utrzymania porządku wewnętrznego, odcięte od zaopatrzenia przez sąsiednie posiadlości francuskie i brytyjskie, a na dodatek miejscowemu wloskiemu dowództwu brakowalo umiejętności i możliwości prowadzenia regularnej nowoczesnej wojny. Imperium Brytyjskie również rozpoczęlo bitwę o Róg Afryki slabo przygotowane, ale szybko zdalo sobie sprawę ze znaczenia tej kampanii dla zapewnienia bezpieczeństwa linii komunikacyjnych biegnących przez Morze Czerwone, Nil i Afrykę. Po szybkiej mobilizacji sil alianci przystąpili do sukcesywnego eliminowania wloskiego zagrożenia w tej części świata. Praca szczególowo przedstawia kampanię trwającą do listopada 1941 roku, w której żolnierze okolo dwudziestu narodowości z trzech kontynentów walczyli po obydwu stronach o kolonialne interesy Wloch i Wielkiej Brytanii. Kampania w Afryce Wschodniej to nie tylko walki na froncie, ale także brutalna wojna pomiędzy Wlochami a etiopskimi partyzantami, która miala doniosle skutki dla planów Mussoliniego. Szeroko omówiono również zagadnienia z szerokiego kontekstu: sytuację gospodarczą Wloskiej Afryki Wschodniej, losy zamieszkujących ją Wlochów, opór stawiany przez konspiracyjne organizacje wloskie, którego plomień tlil się aż do samego zawieszenia broni między Wlochami a aliantami oraz dzieje państw wchodzących w jej sklad po zakończeniu kampanii.

    Herman Melville, an American author, wrote "Moby-Dick," a novel first published in 1851. Among the most influential pieces of American literature and a tremendous work of world literature, it's frequently cited as a "classic of literature." The novel is a complicated and varied investigation of subjects like obsession, revenge, the nature of bad and human interaction with nature.Ishmael is a man who joins the whaling vessel Pequod, commanded by the vengeful and mysterious Captain a Hab, and recounts the story. Ahab is determined to catch and eliminate the white sperm whale Moby Dick, who bit off his leg during an earlier expedition. The story follows the crew of the PequoD as they try making this risky and symbolic journey - and come across several adventures as well as challenges in the process.The "Moby-Dick" is famous for its symbolic acuity and philosophical breadth. It looks at the intricate nature of human beings and the effects of unchecked lust and ambition. The novel is likewise full of detail as well as complexity because of comprehensive and frequently scientific descriptions of whales and whagging practices.The book has been examined as well as interpreted scholarlyally because of its symbolism and themes, and has been adapted into movies, plays along with other literature. The canon of American literature consists of it as an important and important work.

    The book "Old-Time Maker, Medicine" is a tremendous contribution to the history of pioneers, practice, and medical thought. James J. Walsh offers a comprehensive evaluation of exactly how medicine has evolved due to personal genius and the wider cultural, political, and intellectual current of the period. A more complete historical context specific to this work:Historical Context for "Old-Time Makers of Medicine"Ancient Foundations:Spiritual and religious views were strongly associated in ancient civilizations through medicine. Egyptians, Greeks, and the Mesopotamians combined divinity and health, assuming that diseases had been both natural functions in addition to divine punishments.The Greeks especially started emphasizing the significance of natural reasons for diseases. This marked a major advancement from blaming illnesses exclusively on the whims of god.Interplay of Civilizations:The Roman Empire had a huge expanse and absorbed and gathered medical knowledge from each one of the territories it conquered, including Greece. The outcome was a rich tapestry of practical yet profoundly Greek - rational medical thought.As Europe entered the Dark Ages post the fall of the Roman Empire, the torchbearers of medical and scientific knowledge had been the Islamic civilizations. They not only preserved Greek and Roman sources but also expanded on them, creating complete medical works.The Church and medieval Europe:Europe experienced upheavals and invasion throughout the early medieval period. The Church was a significant preserver of knowledge throughout turbulent times. The monasteries served as sites of repose and study for old texts.Universities appeared in Europe as stability resurfaced with time. The foundations for formal medical education were laid by these institutions while they routinely studied medicine.Renaissance - A Rebirth:Art, science, and thought experienced a rebirth throughout the Renaissance. A return to classical sources entails re - reading ancient Greek and Roman texts.This period also saw challenges to traditional thoughts. The universal acceptance of Galenic medicine was disputed and oftentimes denied, particularly with the growth of exact anatomical studies.Cultural and Intellectual Currents:Medicine wasn't restricted to managing ailments during these times. The society's wider intellectual currents were reflected in it.

    В России около тысячи политических заключенных. Этих отважных людей лишили права жить и действовать на свободе.Но оказалось, что их невозможно лишить ни внутренней свободы, ни права высказывать собственное мнение. Их голоса - самые свободные голоса внутри сегодняшней России. Они звучат из залов судов, в письмах, блогах, социальных сетях. Им не страшна цензура. И точно так же, как мы перечитываем письма и речи советских политзаключенных, следующие поколения будут перечитывать слова узников российского режима.В этой книге представлены письма, интервью, посты и выступления Ильи Яшина - политика в стране, где не осталось политики.
