Over the years, it became increasing clear, that if the Christian faith is really true, it is not being given the seriousness of what we profession. As an example, there are aspects of the Christian faith that are very comforting: the love of God. There are also aspects of the faith that are hard to fully grasp: the immutable holiness of God. These two aspects of God's nature coexist in God's perfect nature; neither of which can ever be diminished or compromised. Therefore, this gives rise to a perceived problem: how can God love sinners and still remain uncompromisingly holy? This book explores the wonders of God's salvific work to bring sinners into a right standing with Himself. In this book, you will find the straightforward answer to the way of salvation, the motivations to live a life that is eternally meaningful, and explore essential doctrines that have been neglected.

FIRE IS ONE OF THE FOUR MAJOR ELEMENTS KNOWN TO EXIST ON EARTH. OTHERS INCLUDE: AIR, WATER, AND DUST. HOWEVER, FIRE OCCUPIES THE MOST SIGNIFICANT POSITION AMONG THE REST FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF SACRED RELIGIOUS WORSHIP WHERE IT IS BELIEVED TO REPRESENT THE PRESENCE OF GOD. ALSO, BECAUSE OF THE CRITICAL ROLE THAT FIRE PLAYS IN THE AREA OF SPIRITUAL WARFARE, ANYONE WHO DESIRES ACCESS TO SUPERNATURAL POWER MUST HAVE A DEEP UNDERSTANDING OF THE CHARACTERISTICS OF FIRE AND ITS SYMBOLISM, AND BE SPIRITUALLY BAPTIZED BY FIRE. BAPTISM BY GODLY FIRE ENDOWS CHILDREN OF GOD WITH SUPERNATURAL AUTHORITY AND ENABLES THEM TO DO EXPLOITS FOR HIM. SO, THIS BAPTISM BY FIRE IS A PRIVILEGE AND GREAT BLESSING TO THE BODY OF CHRIST. THE CONTEMPOARY CHURCH NEEDS BELIEVERS, LIKE MOSES AND ELIJAH, WHOSE HEARTS "BURNED" WITH THIS SPIRITUAL FIRE. IT DISTINGUISHES A BELIEVER FOR SERVICE IN THE KINGDOM WHERE GOD, THE SUPREME JUDGE THAT IS "A CONSUMING FIRE", IS ALSO THE GOD OF MERCY AND GRACE, WHO SAVES THE PENITENT. THIS IS A MYSTERY THAT THIS BOOK TRIES TO UNRAVEL.

In my career as a purchasing professional, I had to resort to publications on Corporate Purchasing, but the ones I consulted did not address several important subjects.Hence the motivation to write The Ultimate Guide of Purchaser, with over 30,000 copies sold. Nevertheless, renewing the book is indispensable; several new topics are in this edition.Purchasing areas evolve quickly. Decades ago, tools were simple, with almost no electronic resources, and it took days to receive proposals. The focus was on Sales, without valuing Purchases, as if it were possible to survive without competitive costs!Organizational transformations, the reduction of structures, and the change of paradigms require different skills from purchasers to succeed.They participate in defining the purchasing strategy, develop tools to evaluate the supplier's performance, and are vital in implementing Strategic Sourcing and Global Sourcing, for example.When buying a good or service, the purchaser must assess the impact on other processes in the organization's production or operational chain. A company's profits depend on selling well and buying well. Knowing how to negotiate, purchase, and differentiate opportunities from pitfalls are skills that reduce costs and increase earnings.The Ultimate Guide of Purchaser analyzes industrial, service, and commercial acquisitions, and it is worth highlighting how the backbone of procurement procedures is similar in different branches. The book offers valuable insights and serves beginners and those with years in the field.The Ultimate Guide of Purchaser is also helpful for students to learn how to work in purchasing or logistics.Progressing in your career requires adapting to new challenges, and such a task is practically unfeasible without theoretical and practical support, and offering such resources is our modest intention.The development and updating of the book took years, aiming to provide qualified and beneficial information for you, reader!
