The Lost Ark of the Covenant by Tudor Parfitt Pdf

“A real-life Indiana Jones” narrates his attempt to find a sacred religious relic in an account “cinematic in tone, with scenes of heartstopping action” (Booklist). After 2,500 Years of Mystery, the Truth About the Ark of the Covenant Is Revealed The Lost Ark of the Covenant is the real-life account of an astounding quest—professor Tudor Parfitt's effort to recover the revered artifact that contained the Ten Commandments, sacred to Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. With painstaking historical scholarship, groundbreaking genetic science, and fascinating on-the-ground discoveries, Parfitt, who the Wall Street Journal calls “a British Indiana Jones,” debunks the previous myths and reveals the shocking history of the Ark and its keepers. “It’s worthy of a Spielberg epic: an intrepid British don’s 20-year mission to find the Lost Ark of the Covenant.” —Daily Mail “Parfitt’s passionately crafted new theory, like his first, could eventually be proven right.” —Time Magazine “Parfitt’s scholarly, fascinating work explains and explodes a pervasive myth.” —The Times “This real-life account [is] a gripping . . . yarn. Recommended.” —Library Journal

The Lost Covenant of the Kingdom by Lornah Stump,Lornah Stump Nelson Pdf

Covenant empowers you to prevail in chaotic times and have peace in the midst of storms. What is Covenant? Why do I need it? Covenant is about Jesus. It's not about what you can do for Him, but what He wants to do in and through you. In Covenant, you'll experience new adventures and have greater intimacy with the Trinity. Covenant connects you to God's purpose for your life and answers questions like: "Why was I born? Who is God for me alone? And who am I?" You'll move from a normal life into a supernatural one; from who you once were, to who you really are; from 'I was, ' to 'I am.' The past will no longer define the present. Covenant doesn't prevent suffering or hardships but overcomes them. You'll begin to think and pray like a son and heir, instead of a servant. You'll learn to stop struggling in your own efforts and step into what Jesus is doing. As a Covenant Heir of God, you will discover: The promised birthrights, blessings, and resources that belong to the family of God. How to access Abraham's blessings that are included in the New Covenant. Covenant is the secret to winning every battle. Covenant and the Kingdom of God are intertwined and equally important.

The Lost World of the Israelite Conquest by John H. Walton,J. Harvey Walton Pdf

Biblical Foundations Award Winner Holy warfare is the festering wound on the conscience of Bible-believing Christians. Of all the problems the Old Testament poses for our modern age, this is the one we want to avoid in mixed company. But do the so-called holy war texts of the Old Testament portray a divinely inspired genocide? Did Israel slaughter Canaanites at God's command? Were they enforcing divine retribution on an unholy people? These texts shock. And we turn the page. But have we rightly understood them? In The Lost World of the Israelite Conquest, John Walton and J. Harvey Walton take us on an archaeological dig, excavating the layers of translation and interpretation that over time have encrusted these texts and our perceptions. What happens when we take new approaches, frame new questions? When we weigh again their language and rhetoric? Were the Canaanites punished for sinning against the covenanting God? Does the Hebrew word herem mean "devote to destruction"? How are the Canaanites portrayed and why? And what happens when we backlight these texts with their ancient context? The Lost World of the Israelite Conquest keenly recalibrates our perception and reframes our questions. While not attempting to provide all the answers, it offers surprising new insights and clears the ground for further understanding. The books in the Lost World Series follow the pattern set by Bible scholar John H. Walton, bringing a fresh, close reading of the Hebrew text and knowledge of ancient Near Eastern literature to an accessible discussion of the biblical topic at hand using a series of logic-based propositions.

Covenant's End by Ari Marmell Pdf

The Widdershins Adventures come to a thrilling conclusion in an action-packed fantasy in which the young outlaw with a heart of gold (and the pesky voice of a god in her ear) returns home to face her destiny... After almost a year away from the grand city of Davillon, wandering thief Widdershins has finally come to terms with the pain and grief that drove her to leave. When she returns, all she can hope is that her old friends can forgive her hasty actions. But even that may be too much to ask...because home is not what it used to be. The entire city is on edge, with unrest and rumors of upheaval spreading through the darkened streets, and Shins is shocked to discover that she already knows the person behind the strife all too well—her dreaded nemesis, Lisette Suvagne. Thanks to an unholy bargain with otherworldly powers, the vindictive Lisette is far more dangerous than before—and far too formidable even for Shins and her personal god, Olgun, to confront alone. Now, for the sake of her friends, her city, and her own soul, Shins must gather allies from every corner of Davillon—lawful, unlawful, and seriously unlawful—if she hopes to face the greatest challenge of her life. Because the greatest challenge of Widdershins’ life might also be the end of it...

The Lost World of the Flood by Tremper Longman III,John H. Walton Pdf

"The flood continued forty days on the earth; and the waters increased, and bore up the ark, and it rose high above the earth . . . and the ark floated on the face of the waters" (Gen 6:17-18 NRSV). In modern times the Genesis flood account has been probed and analyzed for answers to scientific, apologetic, and historical questions. It is a text that has called forth "flood geology," fueled searches for remnants of the ark on Mount Ararat, and inspired a full-size replica of Noah's ark in a theme park. Some claim that the very veracity of Scripture hinges on a particular reading of the flood narrative. But do we understand what we are reading? Longman and Walton urge us to ask what the biblical author might have been saying to his ancient audience. Our quest to rediscover the biblical flood requires that we set aside our own cultural and interpretive assumptions and visit the distant world of the ancient Near East. Responsible interpretation calls for the patient examination of the text within its ancient context of language, literature, and thought. And as we return from that lost world to our own, we will need to ask whether geological science supports the notion of flood geology. To read Longman and Walton is to put our feet on firmer interpretive ground. Without attempting to answer all of our questions, they lift the fog of modernity and allow the sunlight to reveal the true contours of the text. As with other books in the Lost World series, The Lost World of the Flood is an informative and enlightening journey toward a more responsible reading of a timeless biblical narrative. The books in the Lost World Series follow the pattern set by Bible scholar John H. Walton, bringing a fresh, close reading of the Hebrew text and knowledge of ancient Near Eastern literature to an accessible discussion of the biblical topic at hand using a series of logic-based propositions.

Covenant by Esther Haynes Pdf

The duel between good and evil was settled on the Cross. Jesus declared: It is finished as He hung dying an atoning death at Calvary. Satan lost the control he captured by deception from our first parents! God made a Blood Covenant with fallen mankindHe Himself became the Sacrificial Lamband thwarted the dastardly plan of the enemy to rob us of life eternal with the God of all grace, so he could hold us captives in his doomed domain of utter darkness; of unimaginable evil. the snare is broken, and we are escaped. Dont sit there and dieThe Way, The Truth and The Life is the way out, the only way. Do not be deceivedagain!!
