"The New Jerusalem in Heaven" is God's Jewish Kingdom. We may even speak Hebrew. Jesus Christ is the only common denominator of truth and righteousness of any probability. "God doesn't roll the dice." The Holy Bible gives it many other names throughout scripture, full of Jewish names. Such as Paradise or the Holy of Holies. Do you find it interesting that there is a "New Jerusalem" in heaven and a "Jerusalem" on earth? They are both associated with the inhabitants of this world and are God's capital cities of the Universe and the Earth.

Michael had been reading in the book of Luke chapter 16, when it dawned on him that the rich man had no compassion for Lazarus. Furthermore, after Lazarus and the rich man had both died, the rich man could see Lazarus with Abraham, and the rich man began talking to Abraham.

This is a narrative from a humble Irish priest in America using examples from the early calling into the priesthood through his first few parishes and while at Blessed Trinity in Florida, where he has served for thirty-five years. It includes recounts of a dynamic and diverse career of prison ministry, campus ministry, helping relocate refugees, keeping contact with Irish Travellers, and many helpful points from a life of priesthood.

The Bible teaches that the church is the Body of Christ. Nowhere does it teach that it is also the Bride of Christ. Amazingly, the author of this book reveals what can be called subliminal truths that have been lying dormant in Scripture for two thousand years! Allegorically, the church being the Body of Christ is male, as in Adam. The Bride of Christ will be female, as in Eve. Listen to the book!

The "Meqabyan" (translated as "Maccabean," but not to be confused with the Maccabees) is a collection preserved by the Ethiopian Church. It contains a recap of Israeli history, the Words of God, and prophecies regarding the end-times.

You will find that the bulk of this work is a quotation of scripture, organized by topic in relation to the identity of God. Commentary has been added in an attempt to summarize the concepts I believe are conveyed in the scriptures; however, the commentary comprises a lessor portion of the work. The work may almost be thought of as a topical concordance concerning the identity of God with limited commentary.

As small children growing up, our parents would try to focus on being prepared for the future. In our preparation, we learned that there were a lot of uncertainties. The one thing that we can be certain of is Bible prophecies. Of the many prophecies of the Bible, more than 300 messianic prophecies (prophecies concerning Christ) have been fulfilled. Also, prophecies about the course of world history and the rise and fall of world powers have been fulfilled. Prophecies that have been fulfilled should be an encouragement of what remains to be fulfilled.

This book was born from my burden (1) that people who call themselves Christian might desire to read and study the scriptures themselves (John 5:39); because of (2) the great fear I have that many who think they are Christian have been misled and do not know the truth (Ephesians 5:6). Chapter 1 deals with four questions concerning salvation: Why do I need to know about the Gospel? What if I don't know? How can I know? How can I be assured once I know?

God is continually engaged in the lifelong process of teaching his children. Knowing how helpful and useful picture illustrations are in the learning process, he has provided us with hundreds of them. These pictures have been graciously provided not only to hold our interest as his Word is being taught, but, more importantly, to also simplify what might otherwise be a complex and complicated passage of Scripture.

This book studies the New Testament texts to determine what faith is all about. As a lay author, he inspects with the conviction that if a relationship with God is not accessible to all persons, then the idea of religion makes little sense. The chapters invite listeners to examine what they believe or determine the impact of no belief on their life’s direction. While the author discloses much of his views, it is not an attempt to convert any listener to believe as he does. Whether Christianity is true or not, there is no denying its impact on civilization.

The book of Revelation reveals the apocalypse of Jesus Christ with its consequential consummation of the kingdom of God on earth. This “great wonder” (the words of the author of Revelation) would be the greatest apocalyptic event in the history of the created world.

In Revelation 20:1-3, the scriptures say God is going to lock Satan, the devil, up for 1000 years. This is when the millennium will come to the planet, and the Earth and paradise will be restored. From this verse, we get the word millennium, Latin for "one thousand," the kingly rule of God by Jesus and the resurrected saints, the kingdom of heaven on planet Earth.

In Ephesians 3:9, the Apostle Paul instructed the followers of Christ “to make all men see what is the fellowship of the mystery.” Here is Tom Barnes’ answer to those instructions.

Here Come the Romans is a progressive survey on the historical influence of Rome and how it influenced the times, events, customs, religious institutions, and specifically the life of Jesus, the Jewish people, and the New Testament. Its progressive style guides the listener through a 675 year period of selected history to educate how Rome fitted the biblical narrative and story. The Bible ascribes divine inspiration to the scriptures, but we often forget the human side. The birth of prophecy or all scriptures originated out of human struggles, circumstances, and situations.

This book is an exciting journey across the millennia, from the Garden of Eden to the Garden of Gethsemane. The listener will encounter both good and bad along the way. One is advised not to let movie versions too strongly influence what the Bible actually says. It is hoped that the listener will be challenged to do his own research on places he finds difficult to understand. The listener's perspective will likely change from beginning to end. It will be an exhausting journey, but the listener will be richly rewarded by the time they reach the empty tomb.

Paul wrote to Timothy concerning the dangers of the last days in which we live: "But understand this, that in the last days, dangerous times [of great stress and trouble] will come [difficult days that will be hard to bear]." Although darkness covers the earth and a mist of darkness is over the people, the Lord will rise upon His two witnesses, the two olive trees of Revelation 11 whose oil brings light for the Church to see by in these last days.

God said, "In the day that ye eat thereof, thou shalt surely die." God was talking to the man he had created and named Adam. Adam lived 930 years after God told him that he would die, and then he died. However, God said, "In the day that ye eat." Anyone reading this will have to say that Adam was alive after he ate the fruit. That understanding brings humanity into direct contrast with their God. This book intends to bring an understanding of the death that God spoke about and how humanity understands that same death.

The number 7 is seen throughout the Bible and every religious text, just as I am is a universal story told to mankind in every culture and science. It is a mystery to be revealed, the only hope that we can all be one with the cosmos and the laws of nature of what we call God for our salvation before it is too late. It is my greatest love and care, and my lifetime work to give this information to help and explain our dilemma.

The Bible is filled with stories of people who walked away from face-to-face encounters with Jesus thinking he was a total jerk. This book explores the premise that if Jesus were to return today as he did two thousand years ago, he (or she!) would meet the same fate. That is, his own people would fail to recognize who he is, they would argue with him incessantly, and seek to have him destroyed. Written by a seasoned atheist turned Christian, this book seeks to help non-Christians have a better understanding of Christianity, including why we don't always do as we should.

Events happening now all around the world are falling into place exactly as outlined in God's Word. While studying the Bible, I had trouble understanding something and asked God for help. He responded with a vision of a puppy that answered my question perfectly. He then gave me two more visions. Each was completely different and each was amazing. I then asked, "How close are we to the return of Jesus?" A fourth vision gave an answer and serves as a point of hope but also a warning. We are running out of time.
