Request "Hope for America's Last Generation"
|
Does anyone not think our society is in trouble? Many have given up or don't know what to
do. This book explains how we arrived at this desperate situation both
scripturally & historically. With simple systematic precision,
Galyn shows the goals & the steps we need to recover and win
this contest for the soul of our nation. This book is not about
evangelizing America, but is a call to Christians & non-Christians
alike to find the common ground for an enduring civilization: individual responsibility, marriage, family, government, nationality.
Citizens
of America will encounter hope & will understand the plan to
restore our culture in what otherwise will be America's final
generation.

Cambyses' Lost Army Reported Found Last Week
|
On page 143 of the "Framework" text book, and listed under the year 525 BC, there is a reference to Cyrus' son, Cambyses, and the loss of 50,000 Persian troops. Cambyses' troops perished in the Egyptian desert when they were buried in a sandstorm on their approach to capture the Oasis of Ammon.
Last week a massive collection of bleached bones which included jewelry and weapons dating from the time of Cyrus' son, Cambyses, were identified and photos released to the public.

Ephesians 5:21 - Word Study: "hupotasso" = Submit |
Ephesians 5:21, "Submit to one another out of reverence for Christ."
The world "submit" comes from the Greek word hupotasso which is the combination of hupo meaning "under" and "tasso" meaning "arrange, or to place in order." It was originally a military term used to refer to arranging the troops in their proper command and rank. The word speaks of following the proper leadership structure and role relationships in society. It is not the Greek word hupakouo (from hupo, "under" and akouo, "hear") which translates "obey". Hupotasso means to willing give up you own rights and come in line with the proper order or arrangement. Paul does this in 1 Corinthians 8-9 in order to be an effective minister.

received it yesterday. It is a great treasure for me. God bless you and
your family and ministry now and in the future." - Islamabad, Pakistan
"Your audio series on Revelation was loaned to me by a friend of my daughter. I am
currently doing a Bible study on the end times and prophecy with some girls from our
local community college where our church has an outreach program. Your audio series has
been a direct gift from God for me in helping me put together this Bible study for the
girls and has given me much insight and encouragement. I just cannot thank you enough!" - United States
