There are many of us who grew up without a father physically present in the house. Many thoughts within our belief system can be traced to that fact. But the Master Prophet has freed us by teaching us that the "facts" of something is not the "truth" of something.

These references from the Koran and the Biblical writings are paralleled to point out the differences and the inconsistencies of the Koran. The writings chosen reveal contradictions and deviations of the Koran from the Hebrew Scriptures of the Old Testament. It is interesting to note the disparity of the Biblical precepts on prayer and intercession for a non- believer, and the admonition of the Koran not to intercede for an infidel, or non-believer, but to pray for them to be cursed.

In his new book, "Understanding Reality Religion: A Mind-Opening Look at Good, the Bible, the Church, and Faith." Hiley H. Ward encourages people to take a closer look at the realities of religion and what this means today. Ward takes the reader on his life's journey with religion all the way from his early Baptist childhood to his now independent, realistic approach to God.

There is only one sure way out of the darkness and the answers lie deep within our own soul if we can manage to remain still for long enough to listen.

I found myself quickly engrossed in Stephen's practical counsel, examples, illustrations, and his solid stand on Biblical principles when facing legal issues so prevalent in society today. The chapters are made up of several parts. Each chapter begins with two fictional vignettes reflecting life lessons and more life lessons, Biblical insights, concluding with practical counsel.

Loritts establishes the subtle longing written in the heart of every true follower of Jesus Christ, a longing for heaven, the dwelling place of God.

These principles are basic to understanding the art of teaching. This training manual is primarily designed to improve teaching skills of Sunday school teachers in local churches in Africa. The first principle 'know yourself and your call' admonishes Bible teachers at all levels to examine themselves to ascertain whether they are born again and secondly if they are called to teach in the church. Those who are not born again are encouraged to respond to the call of salvation.

Admitting that it is hard work on the teacher that requires discipline, he encourages those who face the challenge because there will be an eternal evaluation of this Christ-centered curriculum. The second chapter on reasons why students learn exposes the daunting task of the teacher. The discussion of motivation is in consonance with the law of encouragement by Hendrick. The next two chapters focus on inductive study involving skills of observation, interpretation and application as the teacher prepares in the Word.

The first chapter stresses the intentional, holistic, change-oriented and God-centered goals, with a very strong emphasis on the latter as the student is transformed. After discussing the characteristics of the effective teacher, he emphasizes that teachers must realize that the power of their example is very critical in effecting quality change in the lives of their students. Using Jesus as the model or Master Teacher, the writer highlights, among other things, His maturity, mastery, certainty, humility, consistency, spontaneity, clarity, urgency, variety and sensitivity. It is the responsibility of the teacher, he argues, to motivate, stimulate and encourage participation.

The purpose of the study, countless misconceptions of students, the etymology of the word 'methodology', definition and reason for religious education, kinds of research methods and hints of note taking are discussed in the first chapter. These give students the opportunity of revising when writer rather than presenting new information to them. The importance of the second chapter is that it gives a systematic approach to finding research/project problems, approach to find a research topic, formulating the research topic, sources of information, reviewing relevant literature, sources of information, reviewing relevant literature, hypothesis and format for research writing. Like the first chapter, the dimensions are not new but serve as a useful guide.

Tolle: "But don't underestimate the pain-body's ability to draw out some, to make you unconscious again, to push some kind of button, and you will find yourself reacting again. Because pain-bodies are very cunning, very clever. And they know exactly what will make you unconscious and what will make you react.

The spiraling crisis faced by children in third world nations continues to rise. Earlier problems and to other debilitating diseases have in part been reduced but are now replaced with a new quandary, a new crisis. Street children, child soldiers, a global sex industry, child labor, and various forms of slavery are growing problems.

Cassiodorus' work entitled De Institutione Divinarum Scripturarum (d. A.D. 562) is seen as a valuable contribution to the beginnings of Biblical criticism as applied to the text of the Hebrew Bible. The tenth and eleventh centuries witnessed a number of critical attacks in Spain upon various parts of the Hebrew Scriptures, one of which was made by Ibn Hazam of Cordova about A.D. 994.
