The question is often asked, "How can I pray so my prayers will be answered?" There are indeed answers, and in this book you will find a remarkable number of them. In the pages of this book, you will find an in-depth presentation of Spirit of Prophecy statements on the subject of prayer. Because it is a practical question, dealing with the everyday realities of life, the answers will also be found to be very practical, and will touch on a variety of points. Yet basic principles are also give, principles that underlie all genuine contact with God. Our kind Father is more willing to give good gifts to His children than we are to receive them. On our part, there should be an earnestness to plead for help, a steadfast determination to cling to Him in spite of all that might occur, and a submission to His wise decisions.
Put yourself in this man's shoes, JUST HOW WOULD YOU FEEL? He is alone on the last day of his life. He has witnessed the stampede..people...animals...everything...trying to escape. The "thing" is sweeping inland. The sky is collapsing. Forests ablaze. A lingering survivor...in dazed disbelief...he re-lives the past few days. A news broadcast told of fissures opening up all over the world...hundreds of miles long. Hot magma spurting up...worldwide. And now he faces the end...All voices have died - except for the howling of the wind, the ear-splitting thunder, the relentless crashing of waves. He is alone...Did something like this happen in 2345 BC? See evidence that is more substantial than for any other event in history. The last day on earth: Those geniuses of Mother Civilization - how did they feel on the LAST DAY? What really transpired the day the earth tipped over? With surprising scientific evidence, we reconstruct that most incredible day in all of history.
No hace falta decir que Cristo es central para el cristianismo. La mayoría de los cristianos saben que Él es el medio por el cual Dios trae de nuevo a los seres humanos a la comunión consigo mismo. También pueden ser conscientes de que Cristo es nuestro sustituto y garantía, nuestra justicia y nuestro modelo y ejemplo de vida. Lo que quizás no sepan es que, como el "segundo Adán" sin pecado, Cristo se ha convertido en la nueva cabeza de la raza humana y que, al dejar este mundo, envió su Espíritu para completar el proceso de adopción para todos los que lo reciben (Gál. 4:6, 7). Y lo que quizás tampoco sepan es que Cristo también es nuestro Juez Maravilloso, lo cual es una noticia alentadora que se dirige hacia el juicio final. Alan Freed describe las funciones de Cristo en la redención humana, cómo el santuario bíblico prefiguró el camino de la reconciliación con Dios y lo que el creyente debe hacer para cooperar con Jesús cuando termine su ministerio en el santuario celestial. Advierte sobre un camino peligroso promovido por una unión religiosa de tres partes que ha declarado muerto el protestantismo, y ofrece información para seguir y permanecer en el camino que nos llevará a casa con Dios. "Acabo de terminar de leer el manuscrito de Allan Freed, Our Wonderful Judge. En mi humilde opinión, es alimento a su debido tiempo. Es bíblicamente equilibrado y completo, dada su breve extensión. Es fiel a las perspectivas y los escritos de Ellen White. Yo, u otros, pueden haber optado por matizar ciertos conceptos de manera diferente, pero la escritura refleja un estudio cuidadoso y una aplicación en oración, por lo que oro para que sea una lectura amplia en la temporada crítica de la inminente lluvia tardía. 'Aún así, ven Señor Jesús'." - Dwight Nelson, Pastor, Pioneer Memorial Church.

If the history of the world were a journey, where would we be? In his book, When the Conflict Ends, What Then? author Carl H. Waters uses the map of Scripture, with its histories and prophecies, to take the reader on a journey through time, beginning with the Creation and the expulsion of Adam and Eve from the garden and ending with the final conflict between good and evil before Christ returns. Waters traces the distortion of God's character through paganism's amalgamation with true faith. He highlights the role of faith's defenders, who have arisen throughout history to share the truth of God's love and mercy. He emphasizes God's law, which sustains and governs all things living, and God's sovereignty in the universe and His unwillingness to force anyone to comply with His will. Additionally, he lays out principles for interpreting prophecy and finds symbolism in the Old Testament sanctuary to help the reader understand God's plan to rescue all who are willing. When the Conflict Ends, What Then? shows readers the "X" on the map of human history as we head toward the resolution of the final conflict, which says, "YOU ARE HERE!""Rich in historical detail, Waters shows how the Old Testament finds its fulfillment in the New Testament, and how that fulfillment applies to us today in how we are to worship and come into the presence of God." ~ ~ Conrad Vine, Pastor, and President of Adventist Frontier Missions "This book offers explanations to the often-common questions and misunderstandings of a Sovereign God interacting with humanity prior to and after free moral agents were subject to the curse of sin. For bible scholars, students, teachers, pastors, or avid historians, this read is a wonderful addition to your library." ~ Gary James, Executive Director of Renewed Hearts Inc.
"A voice under those deep muddy waters sternly said, 'You are going to drown.' ... In my confusion, another voice said to me, 'Take your feet and put them where your head is, and take your head an put it where your feet are ... and swim as fast as you can.' I had to put my trust in something, and so I obeyed the voice."In an inspiring story of listening for the voice of God above all else, Pastor Donell Morgan shares his story of hearing The Call. From his troubled background on the streets of New Orleans to his ministries throughout the Southeast United States, Pastor Morgan shows that God has a plan for even the most confused souls if they are willing to open their hearts and embrace the gifts and glory of God.
During the early 1930s Carey A. Reams, a biophysicist studying quantum mechanics, developed a scientific theory which became known as the Reams Biological Theory of Ionization (RBTI). Originally designed to enhance agricultural practices, the theory took on new life when Reams was challenged to expand his knowledge and find a way to help a little boy overcome life-threatening seizures. Reams' research not only helped the little boy return to a normal life, it also resulted in a redefinition of biological science as it is known today. RBTIOM is the acronym for the Reams Biological Theory of Ionization in combination with the application of Original Medicine concepts and principles. This book provides the basics of RBTI topics to empower the reader with a practical understanding of how this combination can be used to achieve optimum health and vitality.

Even though this book is about Daniel 2, it's not really about Daniel 2! It's really about Jesus! Come tag along on this exciting journey of re-discovery! Even if you think you've long understood all details of the prophecy, you may just discover a most important new insight and find yourself dumbfounded by precise prophetic fulfillments in Christian history that once sent chills up the author's spine. You too may discover the fuller gospel meaning embedded within ancient cryptic symbols, almost like a "hidden picture"! Daniel 2, specifically, unveils the very Foundation Stone of all later Bible prophecies, and-correctly understood-it places the Lamb of God, His unfathomable love for sinners, and the heart conquest of His Kingdom (of glory and of grace) squarely back at the center of all Bible prophecy. That Christ-centering "hidden picture" is nothing short of a self-portrait of Jesus and the prophesied growth of his New Testament "kingdom of God" message into all the world, of his royal incarnate rule from its tiniest beginnings in Bethlehem to its mountainous NO END in eternity! This book is really about a too-often "hidden" message that Herald believes God always intended to shout out to our anxiety-ridden world today, as we now teeter on the brink of eternity. It is the timeless and yet so timely message of "HOPE!" Real hope! A long-growing hope (as you will discover)-embodied in a Person-that reaches all the way down to even the most apparently hopeless if she or he will only recognize it and take hold...of JESUS! "In this magnificent book, which at times seems like a spy thriller, Joshua Herald methodically details insights into Scripture. He does so with such clarity and precision that you will wonder how you could have missed coming to the same conclusion he did." ~ Ron Price MA, author of Play Nice in Your Sandbox at Church, Play Nice in Your Sandbox at Work, and Play Nice in Your Sandbox at Home "Hang onto your seats for this rollercoaster! Joshua Herald pens a twisting, turning ride to a better understanding of Daniel's beastly prophecies and the mysterious stone that strikes the colossal, metallic image.~ Chris Conrad PG (professional geologist) If you have found the insights in this book to be spiritually uplifting and helpful, please share this title with a friend!

Sometimes, a book's title speaks for itself. Borrowing from one of Jesus' most succinct and poignant parables, Lionel Jean-Jacques spreads his immeasurable exuberance in discovering and attaining the universe's greatest treasure, Jesus Christ and His gospel.Jean-Jacques opens the book with a personal start, sharing his ups and downs in taking Scripture and spiritual matters more seriously and ultimately approaching the decision to be born again. He incorporates notable Bible case studies to encourage readers to realize they are not alone in their struggles: Nicodemus was hesitant; Jonah was painfully stubborn.The author diversifies his talking points, eventually venturing into some critically unique elements of Seventh-day Adventism. Though it may seem like he strays from the title, he knits things together nicely. Understanding and accepting the Sabbath, the state of the dead, and embracing and participating in the three angels' messages are all part of selling everything one has to acquire the priceless Pearl. Preparing for the calamities and deceptions of the end times goes hand in hand with the yearning to spend eternity with our Lord and Savior.
