Should not one meditate deeply and regularly to achieve union with God before the inevitable happens? Why take the risk, why wait until it is too late? This present lifetime could be one's only chance to find some form of salvation or wholeness before it is too late. I feel that one should do some serious research into the matter and find out what really is the truth.

Some even called the book heretical and un-biblical. Much of this unfair criticism was because it was too abstract. The personages of the story are intended to resemble the Holy Trinity: God The Father, God The Son, and God The Holy Spirit. All God and All co-equally God.

Crowley starts off with with an essay on Gematria that is the art of rendering words into numbers for the desired result.

The early Christians stuck to the image of the Cross as it helped them remember Jesus. They didn't see Him as still hanging on the cross, but viewed it as a depiction of God's everlasting love and forgiveness. 'So I may hold dear the old craggy cross, till my prizes at last I lay down; I will be in a position to adhere to the old craggy cross, and exchange it some day for a crown.'...

This book will show you that the images can come from your higher self, your spirit guides or other spirit friends and these images can take a little time to understand but there is no rush. Let Lynn show you how to develop your third eye, how you can use crystals for healing and how to develop your psychic ability.

Their life experiences are similar, yet strikingly different.

"The Death of a Pope" has taught me much about the Catholic Church, its inner workings, its services, its beliefs in practicing Catholicism, and much more. While this books characters are fictional for the most part, the story follows the path of history teaching many of the good along with some bad that occur in the church.

Is the prophesied Mashiach of the Hebrew Bible the same as the Jesus that Christians embrace as Messiah? Zane looks at prophecies from Moses, Isaiah, Jeremiah, Daniel, and Zechariah to explore evidence as to whether Jesus fulfilled any or all of them. Kane's work creditable and is worthy of serious study. He is systematic in his presentation.

What a marvelous read! For those of you who have not read it, "Tuesdays With Morrie" is the story of an old professor, dying of ALS, spending his Tuesdays with a former student, sharing with him some of life's great secrets. Despite his weakening condition, Morrie takes the time to talk, not only to the young man, but to many other people who come to his house with their problems.

This is the testimony of Dr. Joseph W. Walker III. It is a testament of faith which details the events, passion, frantic prayer, and the unwavering fight to claim God's promises and seek His presence during an eighteen month struggle for life, meaning, and ministry.

This is another in the "Praying the Scriptures Series" by Golden Medallion winner, Elmer Towns. The book is based on prayers taken from First and Second Samuel and First Chronicles.

Joel is the Pastor for the largest church in America. His church is located in Houston, Texas. The Lakewood Church has approximately forty-five thousand adults in attendance each week. He also has weekly television broadcasts and his books are among the New York Times bestselling books.

The most significant of these is that Christianity is boring, and Christian e-books and books are just for evangelists! You'd be surprised at the number of people you can speak to in a week that will tell you they don't see how they could possibly use a Christian e-book or other books in their life.

The author has had years of experience as a Zen practitioner and meditator. I believe that this background and experience has helped him understand the deeper meaning behind the paradoxical language found in the Toa Te Ching.

In hundreds of cathedrals, churches, paintings, shopping malls, bookstores, and craft shows all over the world, images of angels are everywhere. Their mere presence sparks that curious, spiritual inner longing that many of us attempt to develop and explain in our intellectually, technologically-driven world.

For the record, we feel that the 9 fruits of the Holy Spirit are much more important than the 9 gifts are, as the 9 fruits of the Holy Spirit have to do with God imparting part of His divine nature into the core of our personalities to help make us into a much better and holy people.

The abiding thesis of the work is that most of the sexual attitudes of Christianity flow from interpretations of the Garden of Eden events and the intrusion of a "subtle beast" serpent into the "good" harmony of Adam and Eve.

He explains the modern day role of the prophet in his book "God Still Speaks." He has seen the results of this teaching in the lives of thousands of people who have been blessed by implementing the practice of this message in their lives and ministries.

It's basically a memoir of Wynonna's life leading up to her breaking point and ending with some real life lessons. I'll admit that I skipped most of Wynonna's life story and jumped right to the life lessons, but that's what I got the book for and that's where I related.

As a prophet, I am strange or I feel strange when I tell people I can have half an hour discussions with Jesus or the Father, and I see them look at me as if I am mad. Imagine my surprise when I came across a person who is not only like me but has been that way for over thirty years in ministry.

In those years travel was crude with very little thought of passenger comfort unless one was very rich and had means to splurge. Hattie and John had no such budget.

With 183 pages of gold, Paul Davis, an expert author here on EzineArticles, brings a balanced Penticostal view of the life of a person who is crucified with Christ should look like. Free of hype and all the sensational language of the penticostal speakers normally have, I found Paul's book highly entertaining and a book that I stayed up all night to read.

It's not often that I get moved to tears so thoroughly. I don't write any book reviews as you'll notice I have only written about three and those only 500 words. You'll find I invested a lot of my time writing this review in the hope you'll invest your money into this book. There's a woman you know who needs to read it.

These books point out a lot of problems with Christianity and the Holy Bible, but are well worth reading, especially if you're a Christian.

Originally published in 1999, the book received good success. Interest for the book renewed again in 2008 when the well-known talk-show host Oprah Winfrey invited Tolle to be her teaching partner on a 10-part online webcast series on spirituality.

His blog Zen Habits has made it in 12 short months to being one of Technorati top-100 blogs in the world and has accomplished more in 12 months than most people accomplish in 12 years.

Many Christians are screaming false prophet on the Internet, where many others are avid fans. I am one of the latter and this is a little of my review of Todd's book. I hadn't hear much of Todd's supernatural life until I read this book. I was very happy to hear that Todd has had extensive experiences that he can draw from for this book. In the book he says that nearly every time he worships and seeks the feet of Jesus he has a supernatural experience.

I fight by worshiping the Father and entering into his presence and his rest. In the presence of the Lord is found peace and joy and rest. I know that it helps me and it can help you too. You need not only experience the presence and anointing of a Holy God, one a week at church. The Fathers presence can come and sup with you in your home during the week.

A new book, How To Read the Akashic Records: Accessing The Archive of The Soul and It's Journey by Linda Howe explains that the Records contain, "everything that every soul has ever thought, said and done over the course of existence, as well as its future possibilities."
