This book may differ from what you have heard all your life. By the end of the book, I believe you will agree with my conclusion. The exact sequence of events or the time of the Rapture cannot be precise. There are two raptures from reading the scripture of Revelations. The First Rapture will come sometimes after Beast of the Sea, which is the beast that ascends out of the bottomless pit but before this verse. "I saw something like a sea of glass mingled with fire, and those that have the victory over the beast, over his image and over his mark and over the number of his name, standing on the sea of glass, having harps of God." The second rapture is a little more defined as God calls his people out of the earth. "Surely I will come quickly" was written on god's timing and not in man's timing. Contrary, to the heads of the world, the Lord God does not give a crap what time man thinks that his son should return. When God the Father tell him, "It is time". Jesus will return. The last chapter is The Book Of Revelations. Tyrone Fuller Brown started life in a local Catholic hospital in 1955. My grandmother Brown was at least a quarter American Indian. Her mother was half American Indian. I do not know, who her mother married or the exact Tribe. I never thought to ask her. I guess. The nuns did not like Trone. So, they just added the "Y" in there. When I was 16 years old, driver's license time, I figured out that the name everyone called me did not match my birth certificate. I, thought, just live with it and I have. After graduating high school, near the end of the Vietnam War, I went to work for the Department of Defense. I worked for the Department of Defense for 26 years and attended college at night. During that time, I received an Associate Degree in Business Administration from Texarkana Community College; BAAS degree from both East Texas State University Texarkana and Texas A&M University Texarkana. I worked another 10 years combined as an Inspector for ATF under the Treasury Department. Later, as an Investigator for ATF under the Justice Department. I retired in 2011 with 36 years of federal service. I used my knowledge and experience in life to write this Book. May God Bless!

There can be a season in our life when the magnificent beauty of sunsets become feared, and we spend our days seeking silver linings. Brooklyn White takes us on a very personal caregiving journey as a child supporting her parents through her father's diagnosis with Parkinson's and Lewy Body Dementia. While there is a plethora of research now available online for these neurodegenerative diseases that are becoming a more common household name thanks to celebrities like Michael J. Fox and Robin Williams, it can still be hard to discern exactly what our own journey will be like caring for someone with either of these conditions. This book is about engaging with our loved ones as they go on this journey with Parkinson's and Lewy Body Dementia. It's also a story of deep faith, love, and how to look for the beauty of sunsets through the silver linings. ABOUT THE AUTHOR Brooklyn White has spent more than 25 years writing and researching in the corporate world across multiple industries through various marketing and communications roles.

Most adults expect to see other adults behave intelligently and acceptably, but that doesn't always happen. Playground Personalities contrasts the behaviors you see in children to the things you see in adults. If trauma, rejection, and negative traits are not confronted and resolved correctly, a child will become an adult and have arrested development in emotional intelligence. In the workforce, you will, if you have not already, encounter people who hold positions at all levels behaving like the children and adolescents you met between grade school, middle school, and high school. It is perplexing to understand why they are "stuck" and deal with situations like the children you knew back then, without knowing what they have been through. Playground Personalities teaches us that ministry goes beyond the four walls of the church, and yes, it extends to the workplace. A church is a physical building, but Christians are to be an example of Christ. This means we are to lead people to Christ and help them heal even outside of the church. That is our purpose on this earth. This book will liberate you if you have felt dismayed because: - You saw things happen and could not understand why the person acted the way they did. - You could not understand why the organization allowed things to take place. - You became the target when you stood on integrity or against the silent rules of negative conformity.

The children thought the answer to this question was simple. Who didn't know their own name? So, they began to call them out when asked. However, a special visitor taught them that Father God had much more to say about who they really are. He declared the truth about their identity that was rooted in God's big love for them. Discover who God says you are!

This book provides scriptural references to many situations we commonly experience. God's Word is His knowledge in print that when applied creates wisdom for living. His Word becomes alive to provide the proper guidance we need to overcome circumstances as we function through life. It is not a common reflex to be led by the Word of God. We must choose to follow after Him by acting in faith rather than be directed by our feelings only. Choosing to go in a direction that is unnatural can be frightening. Once you begin to practice obedience, it gradually becomes easier. As we move in faith and proceed under His guidance we learn that our circumstances will begin to change as well as our character and trust in Him. Obedience is a most critical area that humans shy away from because we have the wrong idea of its purpose. About the Author - www.DougPoole.net Doug Poole spent his life growing up on a farm in Oklahoma and then moved to Wichita, Kansas at age twelve. Graduating from Wichita High School South, he then went to college at the University of Oklahoma. The Marine Corps, Okinawa, and Vietnam occupied his time until getting married in 1971. His 42-years of marriage caused him to turn from his single thinking and become involved with a family and the Lord. His life on the farm growing up and his godly grandparents proved to be foundational in his development for what was coming in the future. Now remarried, a season of remembrance and biblical principles have finally persuaded him to seek a new adventure. And, that new adventure has been sharing with others what God has taught him and referencing biblical principles learned in the writing of several books.

Demons are real and can appear to anyone at any time in any form. Chip Sloan can testify to this statement as he witnessed first-hand his own son being terrorized by not one, but many demons in the forms of substance abuse. For thirty-six years, his son fought against his addiction to tobacco, alcohol, and drugs. He would win some battles through faith and God's protection; other battles were lost as his mind succumbed to the temptations of demons. The battle ended in 2018 when Chip Sloan buried his forty-six-year-old son in the ground. No parent should ever have to bear witness to the death of a child, but there are times it, unfortunately, cannot be helped. Demons of Addiction is the raw and emotional true story of a father who did all he could to help his son, and the honest and hopeful lesson of a man who wishes to share his knowledge to help others. Sloan's story is not easy to read, but it is necessary to understand and retain the valuable information provided, both factual and spiritual, for he not only choses to focus on what addiction looks like in physical form, but also what it does to the mind and the soul. The battle against addiction is one of the ultimate forms of spiritual warfare anyone could come across. Yes, Sloan has witnessed the strength of Satan, and his demons and the power behind their temptations and their lies, but he has also witnessed the strength of God, and the power behind His love and glory is indestructible. Even if one's faith is no bigger than a mustard seed, have faith in God, for He will take care of any who struggle with their own demons, and lead them to others who can help.

Do you ever feel like you are walking in a fog when you look into the Old Testament? The Old Testament contains much that seems confusing - everything from unbelievable miracles to dysfunctional heroes, and subjects like polygamy, genocide, idolatry, and slavery. Then there is the crazy order in which the books are arranged. Add to that, an apparent lack of unity, the absence of a central theme, and the fact that the Old Testament just doesn't seem to make sense! Why should I read it? Why are these stories and writings important, anyway? We live under grace, not law! Is it even relevant for today? If you have ever struggled with these and a hundred other questions about the Old Testament, this is the book for you. Clearing the Fog will give you clarity into the organization, unity, and theme of the Old Testament. It will also give insight into some of the tough questions that arise out of reading the Old Testament pages. Clearing the Fog will provide you with some precise reasons why the Old Testament is invaluable for living as a New Testament believer in Jesus Christ. This book will help you discover in the pages of the Old Testament truths to guide your daily life as you seek to please God. Sam Crouch, is senior pastor of Calvary Baptist Church in Elko, Nevada.

Do you feel unfulfilled in your friendships? Do you ever feel like they should be more supportive, more generous, more joyous, and generally more substantial? Do you find yourself standing alone at too many church potlucks, or engaging in shallow and meaningless conversation with people you've known your whole life, but you've realized you don't really know them? God intended us for deeper relationships than we realize. His Book, the Bible, was a love story from Him to the world-and a manual on how to give that love back to Him and to the people around us. For creative and meaningful relationships, we must understand God's love and how we can use our personal relationship with Him to relate to others. But this requires a change in thinking, a change in interacting, and possibly a change in church culture itself. Erin Pressel is a writer, artist, polymath, enthusiastic book buyer, player of music, dabbler in Scottish Gaelic, and too curious for her own good.

Her hobbies are being facetious, daydreaming and thinking too much. She lives in Dallas, Oregon, and Mirror Image is her first published work.

Addiction and Substance Use Disorder. We have all heard the terms, but what are they really? What causes them and how can we avoid them? Do you have a friend or loved one struggling with alcohol or drug use? How can you help someone who is struggling with this? How can you help the family members who have also been affected?

The gift of tongues is a powerful and important gift of the Holy Spirit. What if there is more to this gift than we have ever imagined?In Jacob's Ladder and the Gift of Glossary, author Jimmy Weiss provides an exposition of the spiritual gift of tongues and what this gift really means in the lives of believers.After dedicating thousands of hours to attempting to provide understanding about the Christian faith over the last five years, Weiss's quest to answer hard questions concerning Christian doctrines resulted in a focused study of the gift of tongues. While examining the Greek version of 1 Corinthians, the true nature of the gift of tongues became suddenly very clear. Through this revelatory work, Weiss exposes the purpose of this God-given gift by explaining the gift of tongues as the gift of glossary, or the gift of hard words, and how this communication brings us closer to God, similar to Jacob's ladder in the book of Genesis.With Weiss's approach to the gift of glossary, we discover that the ability to speak in tongues is the spiritual endowment of competence with obscure, difficult-to-understand words. Just as a glossary is a portion of a book that explains terms once previously unknown, the gift of glossary is the method the Holy Spirit uses to illuminate words of a spiritual origin to believers.Through this gift, God has provided His children with the amazing ability to spiritually express themselves using words that are incomprehensible to the earthly mind. Embrace the profound potential held within the gift of glossary as you take your discernment of tongues to a deeper level and connect with God in powerful ways.

The Bible is supposed to be the place we go to find answers, but what happens when we are still left with questions? We often continue believing what we are taught without completely understanding why.It is important to know what we believe. But it is crucial to know WHY we believe what we believe. Josh Coverett has systematically addressed many of the difficult questions about the Bible. Why must we all pay for Adam's sin? Why does God seem so different in the Old Testament than He does in the New Testament? For too long we have accepted answers which still leave us with questions. If we can partake of the Lord's Supper unworthily; what makes us unworthy? If God knows everything we need before we pray, why do we pray? Incomprehensibly Understood allows Scripture to speak for itself. God understands our questions and has revealed the answers within His Word. It is time to dig deeper!

A Room Full of Tears I Never Cried explores the long-term effects of a father's death on his children, his family, his community, and the future.

Millions of people have not actually met a follower of Jesus, nor understood this faith, the faith of one third of the world's population. But hundreds of thousands of such people are visiting America for studies, where they might meet people like "Uncle Reggie." He has been encouraging and helping such people for decades in the academic world. From his love for foreign students and scholars, and his extensive personal experience teaching them, he has written this book of personal stories and testimonies especially for them. Take this opportunity to acquire dozens of this bilingual (English and Chinese) book, "coffee with uncle Reggie," to give as valuable and instructive gifts to many teachable foreign students and scholars. Through meeting Jesus in personal stories, they can be challenged to seek for ultimate meaning in their own lives.

Those who are followers of Christ are supposed to sound the alarm to warn the people of pending danger. The purpose of this book is my awkward way of pointing out that the United States of America is on the road to destruction. The news is full of stories about "The Big Lie". But has any one stop to notice the signs of the time. This is not the first time a lie enslaved a nation. I have another book call "The Lie of Abram" that will explain the workings of a lie. This Book, "If The Truth Be Told" points out that the foundation of the Christian Religion is based on a lie. And that foundation is beginning to crumble. You can have the right stuff, but it still need to be put together right. The foundation of The Christian Religion is the Birth, Dealt and Resurrection of Jesus Christ and the instruction book is the Bible. You have to read the instruction book if you want to do it right. This book is my response to all three. William Earl Parker is just a voice in the crowd somewhere on the sidelines. He is a Disciple of Christ who walks by faith, not by sight (2 Corinthians 5:7). William's colleagues refer to him as a free thinker because he rejects accepted opinions; especially those concerning religious beliefs. William is a heretic because he holds an opinion at odds with what is generally accepted by his religious order. The truth of the matter is William was formerly an ordained Preacher in the Missionary Baptist Church and an Elder in The Church of God in Christ.

This book was written to help readers to understand God, his son Jesus and the word of God better, and to show that there really is a creator who loves his creation and wants to establish a close relationship with those who want a relationship with him. He wants to help them, heal them, strengthen them, wants the best for them, and wants to transform them into his image. The other reason I wrote this book is to show readers that we are living in the last days, before Jesus returns for his Bride (children of God). I cannot stress how important it is to read and understand that we are living in the last days, and now is the time to establish or reestablish your relationship with Jesus now before The Day of the Lord comes.
