The Purple Colored Church exposes the deception and betrayal of the mystery woman riding the beast in Revelation 17:3, who's religious doctrines may have led millions if not billions to the slaughter of Hell's fiery fury. Multitudes of people have been misguided or deceived to believe Purple is a royal color; conversely, purple is a regal color only having an appearance of royalty. Purple throughout the biblical text has exemplified worldliness, prominence, and dominance: all of the mechanics of overt sin and degradation. Purple was one of many colors in the curtains of the tabernacle and in the high priest's garment, but even in the priest's garment. I believe purple represented intercession on the behalf of the sins of Israel. All of the pagan kings wore purple as a declaration of power including the Rich Man in Luke 16:19. This work will illuminate the dark secrets and repudiation of this mystery church's deceptions, to bring God's true intentions for His people and their purpose in the body Christ.

Tony Petracca, a native of Philadelphia, is a Catholic priest active in Western Pennsylvania. Since his parents and siblings all moved to the West Coast in the 1980s, he has undertaken over three dozen cross-country drives to visit them, experiencing over that time an incredible chunk of the intervening continent in its various aspects. This volume offers both a taste of his travel experiences, and specific recommendations for others to plan and begin their own such adventures, so that they too might discover the same length of road destinations, the same breadth of beauty, and the same depth of history, that he has. While his guardian angel has needed to work overtime on some of these excursions, he has always enjoyed a strong sense of the Lord's providential presence on these treks, so that travel on US interstates, wherever else he is heading, has always brought him closer to God. It is his hope that others will not only read and enjoy this book, but will allow it to launch them onto America's highways and byways, so that they too might not only hear the Creator talking to them through vastness and majesty, but also come to appreciate the many treasures that our nation has to offer.

If you see yourself in one place for several years that shows your time life is defected. Babies are born to move as they grow, they don't know time neither can they understand the time: but they have their working time in them and they co-operate with the function of their time as they move from one lower level to another higher level. Time can never be against babies but babies work their time to function. Likewise, you have to work to your time to function, by first dealing with dissatisfaction, insecurity and being unfulfilled, if these kinds of things overwhelm you, your time will be faulty and void of action. p.p1 {margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; text-align: justify; font: 11.0px Arial} Dr. Paul Adefisoye is an internationally known conference speaker and author.

I pray that my story reached across the borders of all mankind that has lost hope, and need to know that God is still in the healing, and delivering business. I was at a point in my life, even though I had been raised with strong values and morals, when it just didn't seem to line up. Drug addiction, and a life of sin had taken a toll on me to the point of what looked like no return. I was just like Lazarus, in the grave, dead for four days, and stinking. But God looked beyond my fault, and saw my need. One day, I heard the call of God, "Stanley come forth." After I knew life as a saved, born again believer, I was struck with several life threatening illnesses, and God showed up again right on time. Whatever you are going through, know that God is able to not only heal the sick, but raise the dead. I was literally called, "Back From The Grave."

Daniel Colón was born in the year 1975 and was raised in the city of Perth Amboy, NJ. From early childhood, he visited the Pentecostal Church of God but did not have an encounter with Yahweh until the age of twenty-eight. Three months after his encounter with the Lord, he was called to preach the gospel. Soon after, he began to preach in local and international congregations. During that same time, Yahweh opened doors for him at a penitentiary in New Brunswick, NJ, where he preaches every Sabbath.During the years 2003 to 2006, Daniel was responsible for the Sabbath services and Sunday school teaching. Daniel completed three years of seminary with the Assemblies of God and holds a Bachelor of Engineering.In the year 2005, Yahweh gave Daniel a deep love for the land, the culture and the language of Israel. By the end of 2005, Yahweh gave him the opportunity to visit the land of Israel. Upon returning from Israel, he invested many hours in studying the language via Israel's Online Language Academy. Studying the Hebrew language ignited a yearning to understand the scriptures in its original language. Since then, he has unveiled the hidden gems, which were lost in translation, for it is written; it is the glory of Yahweh to conceal a matter and the honor of kings to search it out.In his journey to unveil the hidden things of Yahweh, he found many gems concealed in the book of Revelation that provide fresh insight. In hopes to share his insights to others, he spent ten years engineering a commentary that recalibrates the intricacies of the culture, language and thoughts embedded in the Book of Revelation.

The fatherhood football is being fumbled. In the U.S., 24-million children are being raised apart from their fathers. 40 percent of the kids of divorced parents haven't seen their fathers in the past year. Tragically, in too many cases, even when dad lives with his children, he is emotionally absent. The negative consequences of all of this for children, families, communities and the nation are many. Yes, there are many mothers doing a fine job of raising their children without much help. But that is not the Creator's plan for the family. God's perfect plan is for mothers and fathers to work in partnership to provide their children every needed resource to grow up happy, safe and healthy. Children do better on just about every measure when they have a loving, committed, engaged, skilled father in their lives, even when the parents aren't romantically involved. It's time to recover the fatherhood football. The Church can and should lead the way. We can start by raising-up an army of Christian fathers who model God's deep and powerfully nurturing love. His desire is to work within our hearts to produce fully-developed agape love by the power of the Holy Spirit. Eli Williams is a husband, father and minister. He is the president and cofounder of Urban Light Ministries in Springfield, Ohio. ULM provides a weekly after school program that serves 800 children.

He is the CEO of Fatherhood Ohio, a foundation that raises awareness and funding for fatherhood programs and community mobilization initiatives. A veteran broadcaster, Williams writes and hosts the radio ministry Hot Gospel 20, a weekly gospel countdown show heard on traditional and Internet radio stations, and via mobile app.

It is hard as a parent of a sick child to watch him/her undergo serious surgery at such a young age. That describes the feeling Benay Wharton and her family felt as her youngest son Seth endured three open-heart surgeries by the age of thirteen. His health testimony is explored more through Benay's new book, Our Hearts' Desire is Our Littlest Miracle, as Benay recalls how Seth remained a ball of energy despite his health crises. With each surgery, the family came to God in prayer, seeking the blessings in the troubles, and learned to be vessels for the Lord. Benay found this true in her own health situation, with a cervical cancer diagnosis and hysterectomy, while the family endured a work-related court battle during Seth's second surgery. No matter the circumstance that befell the Whartons, they remained together as a family through crisis while letting go and letting God.

As a passionate teacher who worked toward an environment of respect, kindness, and happiness for her students, Carol Bost was given her hardest task to date in the form of a young boy who had been shuffled around his entire life with no chance to form loving bonds with anyone.

Through prayer and earnest perseverance, Mrs. Bost finally reaches this troubled young student and finds her own life is enriched by what he brings to her family as well. This is a story of God's work through those special souls who work with the children that others have abandoned and give them the gift of unconditional love and acceptance.

15 Bible Studies taught over an extended period of time are included as chapters in this book. As you read the lessons chosen from 10 different books of the Bible we believe that you too will be convinced of the unity of God's Word. We think you will be reminded of the majesty and glory of our gracious God, the author of the Bible, who holds His children securely in His hands (Isaiah 49:16; John 10:27-29).

Paul and The Dispersion is for Bible students. Maps are provided for students to follow Paul's journeys to foreign nations. By tracing his land and sea voyages, students will learn the reason why Paul carried Jesus' name to those far off places. Students will discover exactly to whom Paul was sent by Jesus. For example, Paul also evangelized Jews in their synagogues. (Acts 9:20; 17:1,2; Romans 1:16) They were Jews who had scattered from Israel many years before and who are also known as The Dispersion. This is rarely or never emphasized by traditional teaching, a teaching that emphasizes Paul's apostleship to Gentiles only. What was special about Paul that enabled him to teach in synagogues? First, Paul was a Jew himself and would know Jewish laws, customs and history. He spoke their Hebrew language and possibly Greek. He was able to communicate directly with them. Secondly, Paul was a Pharisee and knew God's law cold. (Acts 22:2, 3) He was able to quote Hebrew scripture, the Christian's Old Testament. (Isaiah 59:20; Romans 11:26) Students will find that there is overwhelming Biblical evidence that Paul was not solely an apostle to Gentiles but that he was also sent out to Jews who had scattered to foreign nations. Then, ask yourself this: Why would a non-Jew, Gentile, be expected to know or have an interest in a Jewish God's Bible and follow Paul's teaching? Did Paul turn Gentiles away? By no means! He did not turn away his vital travel companion, Aristarchus, when he asked for help. (Acts 16:9; 27:2) Jews of the Dispersion had scattered to cities such as Ephesus, Thessalonica, Athens, and Corinth. (Acts 2:9-11) It was to those cities and synagogues that Paul carried Jesus' name in their synagogues.

"The Game of Life" is a fun yet enlightening action filled VBS or Youth oriented book filled with great analogies of man's three parts, which are body, soul, and spirit. The basketball has three parts outer covering, inner liner, and the air which is a great comparison. There is God's team and the Devil's team. Both want to WIN! We have a star player Jesus Christ, God the Father is the Coach, The Holy Spirit is the water, air, and ball boy, and God's word is the referee "He's the enforcer of the rules just like in an earthly game." We also have cheerleaders. The opposing team has the Devil as the coach, Death as their star player, along with Time marking each second and minute. The book has 5 scenes that are easy to learn and put together for a great VBS or Youth Program. Each scene is progressive starting with Christ's sacrifice, then our sanctification, salvation, stewardship, and last but not least our service to Him. I have also included a few memories about my mission trip to the Philippines last spring, where we had over one hundred youth and adults professed Christ as their personal savior. In addition, I have included a biography of Dr. James Naismith a wonderful Christian coach and the founder of the game of basketball. My burden for the youth was given to me many years ago and I am convinced this book along with God's word, His Spirit, and your burdened heart can bring many to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ. God bless you and God's Speed, time is of the essence!

My book will show you there's always hope with God. It will show you how my life went from being troubled to spending the vast majority of my younger years in and out of penitentiaries until at my lowest point I called on God and was ultimately led to running. I've since made numerous friends and found the running community to not only be a positive group of people but a group I've grown to love like family. I've found strong revelations while on the run and it's not just a form of exercise but a lifestyle. I've had the pleasure of meeting some very big names in the running industry along the way and they're as down to Earth as you or me. Anyone that you may know that's struggling with a troubled life may be lifted or given hope by my transformation. Bill O'Shields, from South Carolina. An avid runner. I've completed 13 marathons with a personal best of 3:11:49 and my highest finishing position being 11th overall and 2nd in the Master's Division in the Run Hard Marathon in Columbia 2014, 3 Ultra 50k trail races with one of those resulting in first overall male. I was featured in the Nov. 2011 Issue of Runner's World Magazine. I love the mountains and am truly blessed to live at the foot of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Have a blessed day and happy running everyone!

America is still the greatest, most blessed land in history. As an American I am so thankful to be a part of this blessing. The Words of the Lord are far and away the most important thing to have; to cherish; to hear. God's book, the Bible, is available everywhere in this great land. But there are some things Americans are losing. There is a famine in this land. Not a famine of food or water; America has plenty. Instead, a famine of hearing the Words of the Lord exists. Amos said it best, as he pointed this out: Amos 8:11 Behold, the days come, saith the Lord GOD, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the LORD: If the modern scholars are correct concerning the King James Bible, then man has not had the preserved Word of God for over 400 years. Modern scholars say this Bible is wrong. Today it is becoming rare to see this Bible in church.Amos 8:12 And they shall wander from sea to sea, and from the north even to the east, they shall run to and fro to seek the word of the LORD, and shall not find it. My name is Fred A. Kuypers. I was saved on December 7th 1980. I was saved by reading and believing the gospel and asking Jesus Christ to save me. My Bible at that time was a Catholic Confraternity Text Bible. There was a new hunger for God's Word and I began to question some passages and teachings which I had learned as a new Christian. Within The Path along God's Highway is much of what I learned about Bibles and particularly the King James Bible.
