Two books I recommend.
1. ON HANUKKAH by Cathy Goldberg Fishman ( I might have misspelled her name) Is an excellent way to explain the Jewish holiday to children. My daughter now wants to get a menorrah and open gifts for eight days instead of one! She made me laugh! It better explained this most wonderful holiday to me too! I hope Gd lets us celebrate it with you too.
2. Marriage on Trial by Stanton and Maier. Outstanding book on why we must not be silent about allowing same-sex marriages to swallow up the Gd given and ordained set laws for marriage of one man and one woman in place of a free for all. Please ask Gd to help America in her fight to protect traditional marriage. Thank you. Read this book. Its in Q & A form and each chapter has a conclusion. Most Excellent book on this subject! I hope Gd blesses these two men for their efforts and helps to empower more men to help us in this struggel against dark powers and principalities in high places. WE KNOW OF SOMEONE IN A MUCH HIGHER PLACE!
PS On the book titled, ON HANAKKAH. What a lovely story of thanking Gd for his provisions. He provided what is impossible for man is not impossible for Gd. He provided the oil for the light. He provided the testimony for future generations.....PS.....Jesus is the light! Gd provided Him too. Gd willing I will find a menorrah and some proper candles and give gifts for eight days to tell others and Gd how much I love them for Gd is good and worthy of our gratitude. But on Christmas I will celebrate the very light itself coming to the world as a light to all our darkened hearts. The best provision of Gd, EVER!
Im just starting a book but so far its quite dynamic and I recommend this book as well. It is written by TFP Committee on American Issues. I had not heard of this group. I dont know why I havent heard of them before apparently they are quite involved and are doing good things. It starts out with reviews on the book and that is different. I found the reviews enjoyable. The book caught my eye with its artful cover picture of Moses and the Ten Commandments and I look forward to the rest of the book. I found out that this committee is a group of practicing Catholics and while I dont agree with some of their philosophy, for the most part, I have witnessed amazing and positive things coming from their direction. I personally am not Catholic and feel that you dont have to be any one religion inorder for G*d to save you and redeem you. I just dont see G*d holding a big book of who is a member of what denomination..on the contrary His book is one of our written names and of deeds to mankind. I hope that there is at least one entry in both of them that bears my name. Lord knows if He kept the book of wrongs it would fill heaven. Wow! Im preaching again, good thing Im not in church! Oh yah the books title....DEFENDING A HIGHER LAW. Have a good day, this ones a keeper!
The Vision of His Glory by Anne Graham Lotz gets a 7 from me. She explains in layman terms what Jesus means to those who are perishing and what He means to those who have been redeemed by the Blood of the Lamb of G*D. A good book to give as a gift to someone wanting to know why Christians make such a fuss over Jesus of Nazareth.
I might have given this one already but if I did it is one that bears often repeating. Night by E. Wiesel is a must read!
This book, what can I say, I read it in one sitting, you feel right there in the midst of it all. How humanity can reduce itself to this level of evilness is beyond me, and still is, even after reading this book. There is no understanding of this. They faced the devil himself. I can see how his wife had to go through and interpret and fix the book because I have to do the same many times after I write about what they did to me, some of it comes out so bitter and angry that people would not be able to tolerate it in their spirit. I think his original title, AND THE WORLD WAS SILENT, expresses his hopelessness and anger as well. I witnessed one murder, he witnessed hundreds, I witnessed hatred for my faith on a personal level, he witnessed hatred of G*d himself and suffered for G*d, he witnessed the level one human can sink to when beaten down to a pulp and I too have eaten that fruit as well, it is sour, and it never goes completely away again. The verses in this book that ministered to me the most where in the begining and the ending chapters, the preface and speech, both inspired me to not allow this to happen in America and to get past the Jewish/non-Jewish walls, high as they might be in some places, and not allow the devil himself to seperate us because of our differences, ever, ever, again.
I think that because no one came immediately to stop this from happening was because they didnt care is another wrong assumption, I believe, if more had known, just as they the Jewish people did not know fully until it was too late, the world too did not readily know of it until it was too late. The journey of a lost faith is what is the most heart wrenching. Who could stand under that oppression? No man. The enemy of G*d will suffer far more for causing His people to lose faith than for any other crime committed. To turn G*ds people away from Him will cost the enemy his very existence.
While living a balanced life we cant musnt think that evil does not exist in smiling faces today in America. Lets not say naively," it will be ok" that Christianity is under attack in America, "it will be ok" that immoral leaders are turning our people from G*d and his Word and " it will be ok" that America and its leaders are throwing out G*d and His precepts from schools and government offices. So much so like Germany in the thirties. The difference is when men like Wiesel speak out, people listen! When others tell us that communism is rearing its ugly socialistic head again, we listen! When we see the signs all around us we dont pretend all is well and continue to do as we have always done, we listen! This time will be different.
I finally finished the book and review on the book titled, DEFENDING A HIGHER LAW and here it is.
I must say I have read more books about homosexuality than I have read any other subject and I can tell you that I firmly beleive that with G*ds help our nation will make a difference in telling the truth about the homosexual movements heinous activities and its severely mentally unhealthy program of recruitment and desensitization of Americas children and help to protect this generaton of young adults and the next generation from the homosexual movements often devious, sometimes even criminal methods not to mention really senseless toiling to change the future of our country toward a more secualar and more atheistic mindset.
Eventually they will give up and realize that if you dont accept your own lifestyle that maybe that is telling you something about that lifestyle and the wise thing would be to listen to that small inner voice telling you what is right and what is wrong. What is most wrong about their forced tolerance can be found on every page of this book but I will summarize it below from pages 36-38 on how this movment pushs their lifestyles into society and by prayer and fasting and speaking out our G*d will help us to show light in such darkness:
1. Demonize anyone who protests homosexuality so that no one will like them or want to be around them.( pretty much what is done to me, except a change in that regard is happening!)
2. Use the " bracket technique" to demonize anti-homosexuals and make homosexuals look like the victims.
3. Make religion look stupid and ineffectual and outdated.
4. Make the homosexual looks as though they need protection from these individuals.
5. Present homosexuals as people who are born that way and cant help it. ( BIGGEST LIE EVERY TOLD BY THE HOMOSEXUAL MOVEMENT IS THAT YOU ARE BORN HOMOSEXUAL, THEY KNOW THE TRUTH!)
6. Use your best role models in tv commercials and shows so that they appear average and like the person next door. Dont put the exagerated version of homosexuality on display.
7. Cover-up to prevent shocking public any deviant or unpleasant homosexual activity.( that ought to tell you everything folks!)
8. Weaken religious opposition. ( THis will not happen as long as we make our stands)
9. Talk about homosexuality all the time so that we will win by exhausting them. PS WRONG AGAIN
10.Educate the public.
11.Use Hollywood and stars to promote homosexuality. AKA Sean Penn
12.Use lesbian more than men as poster girls..more acceptable.
13.Use historic personages as homosexuals, even if its not true.
I give this book a 7 out of 5. Good job! Trust in G*d and keep praying and keep reaching out to those perishing in this lifestyle and save as many as will be saved. Show love to all but dont lie to them about their lifestyle choice. G*d bless our efforts to help them see the truth. Just read my story!!!
Hello Guys !
I'm currently reading this book called "A Certain Slant of Light" which is really good! It really gives you something to think about in the sense of what happens when we die, and what ghosts are and stuff.
I would recommend it for anyone who wants a great read.
Im reading a fine book titled, THE CASE FOR ISRAEL, by Alan Dershowitz and for anyone who desires to stand up against those who are persecuting Israel this book is a valuable resource. I have known that the Jewish people have been falsely accused, tortured, abused, stolen from, treated badly throughout their history, I too have known this and dare I say it is a part of choosing to serve Gd, but this book explains what is factually happening and how it is important to provide facts when others are bashing them or us.
I am not done with this book yet and my first impression of it is why are you explaining yourselves to the world? You are only accountable to Gd, but then I remember what happened when I was silent about injustices done to me because of my faith and my attackers only proliferated and became arrogant and hurt others, all because I was silent. So you keep speaking out just as I shall, Gd willing, and regardless of whether anyone listens we will have done the right thing and that is a far greater thing than silence. Shalom.
there is a saying that i used to hear friend goes like this
" he who sees evil and does nothing to stop it is as guilty as those who commit the crimes"
Truth! I couldnt agree with you more.
