Casey Conley, a one-legged detective, is charged with solving the most sensational crime to occur in the town of Ridgewood. Someone has stolen nine bodies from their final entombment in the Cemetery's Mausoleum. Casey's investigation lacerates wounds to his psyche, similar to the one his leg suffered inIraq, where Casey was part of an Army Special Forces Unit. His dark emotions, which he thought he left in the desert, resurface as Casey's investigation deepens. He is consumed with why someone would take these bodies, as much as where they might be.Casey's investigation points to a suspect who would not appear to be attracted to dead bodies. No, this predator abuses sad, living souls, unfortunate enough to be drawn into his evil orbit. One such victim, her life tragically ended by a bomb, has special significance for the amputee, this crime fueling his relentless passion to apprehend the predator.A confession is not the only thing on Casey's mind when he finally confronts the accused. The detective needs to exorcise demons that have been resurrected by this strange crime. The accused, a perfect sociopath, recognizes this need. The two men's epic confrontation - a dance between good and evil - is a discourse on human pain. One suffers from survivor guilt so strong that he does not feel worthy to be among the living. The other, consumed with survival, discards victims when they no longer fulfill his needs. Only one of these men will depart this desperate encounter intact.

The church today has been divided into many different denominations and many different fundamental beliefs. After Jesus Christ ratified the New Covenant in the Spring of 30 AD., the current Church age and the Age of Grace began to build up and unify the Body of Christ under a New Covenant. After Steven was stoned and the Gospel was first preached to the Jews, Christ anointed Saul of Tarsus to carry the gospel message to the Gentiles. The church was formed over the next few years and Paul wrote 13 separate Epistles to explain salvation and forgiveness of sins under the new Covenant. Shortly after the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, the Jerusalem Church was founded as the first Christian church with about 120 Jews and Jewish Proselytes (Acts 1:15). Since that time, followers of Jesus Christ span the globe but the body of Christ has been separated into 200 Christian denominations in the United States. and a staggering 45,000 globally (Center for the Study of Global Christianity): Catholic, Pentecostal, Presbyterian, Lutheran, Baptist, Apostolic, Methodist.... the list goes on and on. Why has this happened since the Jerusalem church was founded in the 1st century AD? A cursory look shows that differences in beliefs, theology and corruption all had a part to play. How sad that the single atoning work of our Lord Jesus Christ has splintered into so many parts. Jesus Christ never taught that there would be different denominal forces fighting over variations of common, basic truth. This book has not been written to free any Christian from denominational chains. It is intended to search the scriptures and determine what they say with regard to 6 fundamental points of disagreement. 1.0 The Holy Bible as a Dispensational Document2.0 The Ordinance of Baptism 3.0 The Requirement to Tithe4.0 The Role of the Holy spirit5.0 The Meaning of the Genealogy of Jesus Christ6.0 What Happens at Physical Death?This book will primarily contrast the Old Covenant requirements and commands to those given by Jesus Christ and the Apostle Paul under the New Covenant. This study will search the scriptures for Biblical Truth and does not involve opinions or man-made rules.

The Wrath of God is not a topic which is usually discussed today in denominational or nondenominational churches. Part of this hesitancy to study and understand the Wrath of God is a reluctance to admit that this is an important part of what constitutes the character of God. Most Biblical scholars, teachers and preachers place God's Wrath and Righteous Judgment in the same secular package as sex, homosexuality and abortion. They are topics we address with care even though each is widely referenced in scripture. The goal of this book is to present a biblical teaching on God's Wrath in ways that make sense to a professing Christian, even as the concept of God's Wrath challenges secular sensibility. The second consideration is the overwhelming opinion of Christians today that God is a forgiving and loving deity who would execute wrath upon sinners. A message consistently taught today is that God is love, and a loving God could never condemn anyone to an eternity of wrath and persecution. Both positions are untenable if the Word of God is carefully studied. There are over 600 references to Wrath in the Holy Scriptures. It is certainly not something that can be overlooked or ignored. This book will carefully and completely discuss the complex nature and meaning of God's Wrath. We can learn and understand much about God by examining Wrath as it is manifested in both the Old and New Testaments. This book will carefully examine:¿ The Meaning of God's Wrath¿ The Motivation of God's Wrath¿ The Method by which God pours out His Wrath upon mankind¿ The Magnitude of God's Wrath upon mankind¿ The Administration of God's WrathThere is a significant difference in how God's Wrath was carried out in the Old Testament versus the New Testament, and this will also be presented and discussed. Over 30 examples of the Wrath of God will be presented.

Musical legend Richard A. Reid is described by his family and friends as someone you can always count on. He came from humble means, raised by his mother and older brother, Cecil. Richard was sickly as a child with whooping cough and many didn't think he would live past infancy. But Richard says, "I fooled them." Becoming a living legend in the Jazz and R&B world was not his goal in life. He just wanted to play his bass, take care of his family, love God, and love people. It is because of those things - and his humility and God's hand on him - that helped him become who he is today.

As this style of translation also identifies the morphology of each Hebrew word using the English language, it is a useful tool for those who are learning to read Biblical Hebrew.This translation includes: An introductory text explaining the background and methodology of the mechanical translation. An introductory text describing the mechanics of the Hebrew language and the history of the Torah. Every Hebrew word of the Torah with its mechanical translation and transliteration. A "revised" translation for each verse that rearranges the text so that it is understandable to English readers. Over 1,000 footnotes on the Hebrew grammar, idioms and alternate translations and meanings. A lexicon including every Hebrew word in the Torah arranged by their roots. A concordance to aid the reader in locating specific words within the Torah.

The Book of Revelation is the only book in the New Testament that is almost entirely devoted to prophecy. It was written by the Apostle John to tell us how this current Church Age will end. The Book of Revelation is complex and mysterious, and can only be understood by carefully studying the scriptures with the help of the Holy Spirit. After 40 years of teaching and studying the New Testament Book of Revelation and the Old Testament Book of Daniel, I began to question the scriptural validity and the theology underlying the different Rapture positions which are being taught in seminary programs and by prophecy scholars. After carefully examining and comparing different teachings on the Rapture and Resurrection of all true believers (Pre-Tribulation, Mid-Tribulation, Post-Tribulation and Pre-Wrath), there were difficulties and inconsistencies which could not be ignored. After years of research, a new Rapture Position was developed which seemed to solve all theological and scriptural issues. The result was a new Pre-Wrath Rapture. The Pre-Wrath Rapture Theory presented in this book is proposed which eliminates the weakness of both a Pre-Tribulation Rapture or a Classic Pre-Wrath Rapture. These conclusions are based upon extensive scriptural justification. A major contribution is to examine the relationship between Jewish and Christian perspectives and beliefs concerning forgiveness of sins and redemption in Jesus Christ. This book will:¿ Show the correct relationship between the 7 Seals, the 7 Trumpets in the Book of Revelation¿ Distinguish between the Wrath of Satan and the Wrath of God ¿ Compare Jewish Messianic Expectations to Christian Beliefs¿ Propose a new Pre-Wrath Rapture Theory¿ Show that the Rapture of the Ecclesia will occur as the 7th Trump Sounds
