“Lucifer” The Morning Star Does Not Exist In Scripture At All【電子書籍】[ Lee A. Todman ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Lee Todman's expos? is an important book and good news for Christians and other interested parties who believe in or are afraid of Lucifer the Morning Star, the so-called Devil.<br /> Throughout his life, Todman had heard the name Lucifer (the Devil) and why humanity should be aware and afraid of this character. As a child he was brought up believing Lucifer was a fallen angel who rebelled against God and was the personification of evil in its purest form. However, it was a concept that did not bear weight with him and years later, while studying at university, he took a deeper look into the book of Isaiah, specifically chapter 14:12.<br /> He was amazed to discover Lucifer as a character does not exist anywhere in Scripture and has been falsely passed down through the generations via ignorance or deceit.<br /> After much controversy and interaction with Christians, former Christians, atheists and other cult members, he wrote Lucifer the Morning Star to put to rest this false narrative once and for all. This book provides the evidence and facts that one single mistranslated word has caused more harm than good, especially in Western culture. It has given rise to false ideologies such as Satanism and Luciferianism that are nothing more than synthetic ideologies that prey on the weak-minded. When they learn there is no Lucifer, the bringer or bearer of light, their entire ideology collapses from within.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,050円

Being and Not-Being An Introduction to Plato’s Sophist【電子書籍】[ P. Seligman ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>The present monograph on Plato's Sophist developed from series of lectures given over a number of years to honours and graduate phi losophy classes in the University of Waterloo. It is hoped that it will prove a useful guide to anyone trying to come to grips with, and gain a perspective of Plato's mature thought. At the same time my study is addressed to the specialist, and I have considered at the appropriate places a good deal of the scholarly literature that has appeared during the last thirty years. In this connection I regret that some of the pub lications which came to my notice after my work was substantially completed (such as KamIah's and Sayre's) have not been referred to in my discussion. As few philosophy students nowadays are familiar with Greek I have (except in a few footnotes) translated as well as transliterated all Greek terms. Citations from Plato's text follow Cornford's admirable trans lation as closely as possible, though the reader will find some significant deviations. The most notable of these concerns the key word on which I have rendered throughout as "being," thus avoiding Cornford's "existence" and "reality" which tend to prejudge the issues which the dialogue raises.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 6,076円

Not Quite Australian How Temporary Migration Is Changing the Nation【電子書籍】[ Peter Mares ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Permanent migration has long been vital to the story of Australia. From the arrival of early settlers to waves of post-war immigration, the symbolic moment of disembarking onto Australian soil is an image deeply embedded in our nation’s consciousness.</p> <p>Today, there are more than million temporary migrants living in Australia. They work, pay tax and abide by our laws, yet they remain unrecognised as citizens. All the while, this rise in temporary migration is redefining Australian society, from wage wars and healthcare benefits, to broader ideas of national identity and cultural diversity.</p> <p>In <em>Not Quite Australian</em>, award-winning journalist Peter Mares draws on case studies, interviews and personal stories to investigate the complex realities of this new era of temporary migration. Mares considers such issues as the expansion of the 457 work visa, the unique experience of New Zealand migrants, the internationalisation of Australia's education system and our highly politicised asylum-seeker policies to draw conclusions about our nation's changing landscape.</p> <p><em>Not Quite Australian</em> is packed with fresh insight and challenging new ideas for understanding Australia’s growing culture of temporary migration.</p> <p><strong>Peter Mares</strong> is an independent writer and researcher. He is a contributing editor with the online magazine <em>Inside Story</em> and a senior moderator with The Cranlana Programme. Peter was a broadcaster with the ABC for twenty-five years, serving as a foreign correspondent based in Hanoi and presenting national radio programs. He is the author of the award-winning book <em>Borderline: Australia's Response to Refugees and Asylum Seekers in the Wake of the Tampa</em> and has written about migration for many media outlets including the <em>Age</em>, <em>Australian Financial Review</em> and <em>Griffith Review</em>. Peter lives in Melbourne with his wife and son.</p> <p>‘Mares is indefatigable in his data gathering and scrupulously even-handed in weighing the evidence. He strikes an exquisite balance between the personal and scholarly, the humane and tough-mindedness. <em>Not Quite Australian</em> is big-picture storytelling with a pulse, always keeping ideals, blunt realities and peopleーthe exposed who want a place and the lucky ones entrenched hereーin the frame.’ <em>Australian</em></p> <p>‘An important and timely contribution to the debate about how Australia should handle the migration of people to its territory, and I highly recommend it.’ <em>Australian Book Review</em></p> <p>‘Compellingly readable…[Mares’] research is comprehensive, intellectually deft, ethically and philosophically groundedーbut digestible, and personally attested…This is on-the-ground, people-focused journalism of the highest kind.’ <em>Sydney Morning Herald</em></p> <p>‘Mares has once again presented a controversial and complicated topic with clarity and humanity. At a time when a national conversation about what it means to be Australian (or unAustralian) seems daily social media fodder, <em>Not Quite Australian</em> is an important contribution. And a reminder of the importance of thorough, slow-burn journalism in the hot-takes age.’ <em>Big Issue</em></p> <p>‘This detailed, careful and topical book is illuminated by the personal stories of individuals and families caught up in a complex and bureaucratic system, and it leaves a lasting impression of an Australia that is becoming a two-tiered country…Powerful and persuasive.’ <em>Overland</em></p> <p>‘This book is one which should be read by policymakers and concerned citizens alike.’ <em>Spectator</em></p> <p>‘One of the most important books published in Australia in 2016. An impressive account of one of the biggest scandals in contemporary Australia; how we’ve sleepwalked into a policy environment that encourages the systemic exploitation of an underclass of millions of temporary migrants in our country.’ <em>Tim Watts</em></p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,291円

We Have Not Been Moved Resisting Racism and Militarism in 21st Century America【電子書籍】[ Alice Walker ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><em>We Have Not Been Moved</em> is a compendium addressing the two leading pillars of U.S. Empire. Inspired by the work of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., who called for a “true revolution of values” against the racism, militarism, and materialism which he saw as the heart of a society “approaching spiritual death,” this book recognizes thatーfor the most partーthe traditional peace movement has not been moved far beyond the half-century-old call for a deepening critique of its own prejudices. While reviewing the major points of intersection between white supremacy and the war machine through both historic and contemporary articles from a diverse range of scholars and activists, the editors emphasize what needs to be done now to move forward for lasting social change. Produced in collaboration with the War Resisters League, the book also examines the strategic possibilities of radical transformation through revolutionary nonviolence.</p> <p>Among the historic texts included are rarely-seen writings by antiracist icons such as Anne Braden, Barbara Deming, and Audre Lorde, as well as a dialogue between Dr. King, revolutionary nationalist Robert F. Williams, Dave Dellinger, and Dorothy Day. Never-before-published pieces appear from civil rights and gay rights organizer Bayard Rustin and from celebrated U.S. pacifist supporter of Puerto Rican sovereignty Ruth Reynolds. Additional articles making their debut in this collection include new essays by and interviews with Fred Ho, Jose Lopez, Joel Kovel, Francesca Fiorentini and Clare Bayard, David McReynolds, Greg Payton, Gwendolyn Zoharah Simmons, Ellen Barfield, Jon Cohen, Suzanne Ross, Sachio Ko-Yin, Edward Hasbrouck, Dean Johnson, and Dan Berger. Other contributions include work by Andrea Dworkin, Mumia Abu-Jamal, Starhawk, Andrea Smith, John Stoltenberg, Vincent Harding, Liz McAlister, Victor Lewis, Matthew Lyons, Tim Wise, Dorothy Cotton, Ruth Wilson Gilmore, Kenyon Farrow, Frida Berrigan, David Gilbert, Chris Crass, and many others. Peppered throughout the anthology are original and new poems by Chrystos, Dylcia Pagan, Malkia M’Buzi Moore, Sarah Husein, Mary Jane Sullivan, Liz Roberts, and the late Marilyn Buck.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,291円

Water Was Not Turned into Wine【電子書籍】[ Henry Green ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>The Bible is read all around the world and people believe and respect what is said in the Bible. If people understood that water was not turned into wine by Jesus, which is supported by Scriptures in the Bible, and that Wine is a mocker, and strong drink is raging: and whosoever is deceived thereby is not wise. Proverbs 20:1 and that alcohol can have a devastating effect on your life, then maybe the world will change its view about wine and strong drink being so acceptable.</p> <p>Henry Louis Green, age 97, March 30, 2016</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 468円

Fear GOD Not Evil - Fascinating Unforgettable True Stories【電子書籍】[ Jodie Randisi ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<h3>If you've ever met a street preacher, you know two things.</h3> <p>They have the gift of gab, which makes them fantastic storytellers. They also do not fear death, which makes them take risks such as...</p> <p><em><strong>taking the love of Jesus to where it most desperately needed and hardest to find.</strong></em></p> <p><em>??????</em>Denny was a miserable excuse for a human being before his conversion to Christianity. Despite being raised in a churchgoing family, Denny found himself on a path of self-destruction in the '70s-a drug addict and alcoholic leading a life of crime. I found his reversal-of-destiny story remarkable and worth sharing, His incredible transformation from a drug and alcohol addicted holy terror into a wholly devoted man of God is truly miraculous.</p> <p>For Denny, attracting people to Christ is a public matter, perhaps because he's notably qualified to reach unlikely candidates for conversion, the people who would never darken the doorway of a church. Over the decades, Denny has ministered to prostitutes, pimps, professional hitmen, gang members, drug addicts and alcoholics, as well as businessmen, diplomats, and politicians. He has been shot at, threatened with knives, beaten unconscious,</p> <p>and put in jail for preaching the gospel. Would it surprise you to learn that in order to get a hitman assigned to you, all you'd have to do is preach the</p> <p>gospel on the streets of America, like Denny Nissley?</p> <p>Denny is a masterful storyteller. His stories are riveting and best told by him.

They Say Damaged, But I Say Not So!【電子書籍】[ Porcha Mays ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>No longer will you walk around in defeat. No longer will you count yourself out of the promises of God because of your past. No longer will you accept the “final say” of others because you have lost your confidence that stems from a power spring source that cannot be contained by man. No longer will you allow your thought process to persuade you into believing that you have reached your full potential and that what you have to offer is no longer valuable. No, sir. No, ma’am. You still matter to God. You are still a part of His perfect plan. You shall not decay on the inside because of the heartbreak and pain the world has thrown on your shoulders, but you shall live to see the goodness of the Lord. The best part about this journey is that we may have had some brokenness, but I hear God speaking life with these words: “They say damaged, but I say not so!”</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,372円

Faith is Not Important...It is Everything! Common sense reasons for nonbelievers to reconsider Christianity【電子書籍】[ Mike Gilles ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Wait? Another book about faith?</p> <p>Yes, but this one is quite different. Faith is a non-exhaustive subject. Here you will find basic evidence, not couched in theology or philosophy, of why faith in Jesus Christ is necessary and crucial. If you are a nonbeliever, this book will lay out reasons why you should give Christianity another look, or maybe a first look. If you are a Christian, this book will not only reinforce and strengthen your belief, but will be an excellent resource for nonbelieving friends or relatives who are intent on casting Jesus aside.</p> <p><em>Faith is Not Important...It is Everything!</em> is a common sense look into faith in Jesus Christ and the fact that being born-again is the only path to salvation. Author Mike Gilles asks the reader to examine the evidence presented in this book and determine if it is reasonable and logical to accept them as fact.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 439円

To Be Covered or Not to Be Covered Should the World See Your Glory or God’S Glory?【電子書籍】[ An Elect Chance ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Writing this book has been an inspiration to me. I must give my dad and mom (founders of Fishers of Men Campaigners), the late Pastor Rudolph Chance and my mom, who is still with us, the credit for the teachings on the covering and the oneness between the man and the women. To Be Covered or Not to Be Covered not only teaches on the covering but also provides assistance with the relationship between the man and the woman, husband and wife, and most importantly the relationship that both male and female should have with the Lord Jesus. Up coming books include Helpmeet. This is the teaching on the role of the woman in the body of Christ, in the home, in church, and in society. I Want You Back is a selection of poetry that includes a poem called Adam Cry. This poem is about Adam after he sinned and what he may have experienced emotionally through the authors point of view. It also includes poems on love and relationship with God and each other.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 468円

Teaching Writing as Journey, Not Destination Essays Exploring What “Teaching Writing” Means【電子書籍】[ P. L. Thomas ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>American author Kurt Vonnegut has famously declared that writing is unteachable, yet formal education persists in that task. Teaching Writing as Journey, Not Destination is the culmination of P.L. Thomas’s experiences as both a writer and a teacher of writing reaching into the fourth decade of struggling with both. This volume collects essays that examine the enduring and contemporary questions facing writing teachers, including grammar instruction, authentic practices in high-stakes environments, student choice, citation and plagiarism, the five-paragraph essay, grading, and the intersections of being a writer and teaching writing. Thomas offers concrete classroom experiences drawn from teaching high school ELA, first-year composition, and a wide range of undergraduate and graduate courses. Ultimately, however, the essays are a reflection of Thomas’s journey and a concession to both writing and teaching writing as journeys without ultimate destinations.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 10,986円

The Teeth May Smile but the Heart Does Not Forget Murder and Memory in Uganda【電子書籍】[ Andrew Rice ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>From a new star of American journalism, a riveting murder mystery that reveals the forces roiling today's Africa</strong></p> <p>From Rwanda to Sierra Leone, African countries recovering from tyranny and war are facing an impossible dilemma: to overlook past atrocities for the sake of peace or to seek catharsis through tribunals and truth commissions. Uganda chose the path of forgetting: after Idi Amin's reign was overthrown, the new government opted for amnesty for his henchmen rather than prolonged conflict.</p> <p>Ugandans tried to bury their history, but reminders of the truth were never far from view. A stray clue to the 1972 disappearance of Eliphaz Laki led his son to a shallow graveーand then to three executioners, among them Amin's chief of staff. Laki's discovery resulted in a trial that gave voice to a nation's past: as lawyers argued, tribes clashed, and Laki pressed for justice, the trial offered Ugandans a promise of the reckoning they had been so long denied.</p> <p>For four years, Andrew Rice followed the trial, crossing Uganda to investigate Amin's legacy and the limits of reconciliation. At once a mystery, a historical accounting, and a portrait of modern Africa, <em>The Teeth May Smile But the Heart Does Not Forget</em> is above all an exploration of how -- and whether -- the past can be laid to rest.</p> <p>One of <em>Kirkus Reviews</em>' Best Books of 2009</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,318円

Not Only the Poor The Middle Classes and the Welfare State【電子書籍】

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Originally published in 1987 <em>Not Only the Poor</em> explores the self-interested involvement of the non-poor in the welfare state, particularly the middle class. Using evidence from Britain, America, and Australia, they show that the non-poor were crucial in the founding of the welfare state, and in all three countries the non-poor benefit extensively from key welfare programmes, including those ostensibly targeted on the poor. Goodin and Le Grand conclude that the beneficial involvement of the non-poor in the welfare state is probably inevitable, but this may be no bad thing, depending on the alternative and on the nature of the egalitarian ideal adopted.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 7,269円

When a Lie Is Not a Sin The Hebrew Bible's Framework for Deciding【電子書籍】[ Dennis S. Ross ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>The difference between truth and falsehood is often clear and simple. But when life gets complicated, the Hebrew Bible can help. The Hebrew Bible is true and wants us to tell the truth, even as biblical characters behave in less than truthful ways. What's more, where some of the lies people tell in the Hebrew Bible stories are punished, others are ignored and still others are rewarded. The Hebrew Bible’s mixed-message of "Do as I say, not as they do" shows that liesーlittle and big, whether told to protect or advance oneself or when intended to preserve the peaceーoften occur under involved circumstances and demand careful consideration. By viewing an array of situations in light of the Hebrew Bibleーfrom the routine but delicate to the once-in-a-lifetime dilemmaーthis book will make a difference in how you think and live. This candid look at religion and truthfulness is ideal for anyone interested in exploring the religious basis for personal decision making, conscience and morality, including Jews of all denominations personally or in Torah study groups, Christians and social justice activists.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 2,454円

Notunol A Study of Christism【電子書籍】[ Mac R Cabanilla ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>The world's many religions have articles of faith that must be observed; these articles include the belief in a superior being, a faith in the afterlife, and a philosophy toward the value of life and existence. But is there more to faith than the simple belief in a god? Is there more than simply living a good life? Is there more than faith?</p> <p>In Notunol: A Study of Christism, Mac R. Cabanilla sets forth that religious faith must encompass more than just a set of beliefs. Christism is a unified concept that ties together mankind, the Holy Spirit, and the nature of the universe. This concept is the Nature of the Universe, Nature of Life (Notunol), and Cabanilla presents this as a study of the very nature of life, god and faith. In this view of the universe, existence is shown to be the combination of physical reality and the immaterial forces, both nature of Gods. It is this combination presents the true nature and object of faith. Cabanilla even shows that study of mathematics cannot reveal the universal truth and faith.</p> <p>This exhaustive study of Christism reveals that there is much more to faith than simply believing in a religious doctrine. In Christism, man must come to understand the interrelationships between the material, the immaterial, and the spiritual; only then can man truly understand the nature of the universe and the nature of life, Notunol.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 686円
