Our time is short on this earth. Jesus will soon be returning to take His children home but are we ready? There are preparations we can make. The book you are holding is a story about fighting the good fight of faith and conquering it with Christs help. Gods Word says, My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge. (Hosea 4:6) The Bible also says, The truth shall make you free ye shall be free indeed. (John 8:32,36) Author Rick Streight speaks heartto-heart with the reader about the realities of the Christian journey and the reward that is waiting for us. He also speaks about the dangers that surround us, the temptations we often struggle with, and how to overcome sin through Christ. He asks a major question: Why hasnt Jesus come yet ? This book answers that important question. Are you spiritually homesick? God has made a plan that we may have boldness in the day of Judgment. (1 John 4:17) Jesus depended totally on His Father for wisdom and power. If we depend on Jesus, we can receive that same power to live the Christian life maturely, with no short cutsthats Gods way! This book also provides answers as to how we can hasten Jesuss second coming. May we all prepare ourselves for the day of the Lord through in-depth study of His Word with much prayer. Ask God, How do I apply these things I am learning to my life?

In this beautiful and broken world, God is here. The heavens declare the glory of God . . . but are we listening? Yes, God created this world, but sometimes we forget that he hasn’t left—that his redemptive, creative work happens still today, right here under our feet. So when we seek for God and study his truth, how much are we missing if we don’t awaken to all he has placed in the soil and sky? God made this world of light and darkness, summer and winter, life and death. What does he intend to teach us in these ever-repeating cycles and seasons? Seamlessly weaving biblical truths into everyday life, Catherine McNiel will help you discover an unbelievable reality: God meets and transforms you in the mess and abundance of every mundane moment.

Journey Life is a journey (1 John 2:12-14). Our natural journey begins with conception; our spiritual journey begins with our new birth in Christ. As with all journeys there are certain principles that, if we adhere to them, will lead us to our destinations. Of course, take a wrong path and you could end up nearly anywhere. Jesus states, "I am the way, the truth and the life. No man comes to the Father but by me." (John 14:6) There is a journey...there is a way; our relationship with Jesus is a way to our success, and having the Father is our destination (fulfilling our purpose). This book is written to help you, the new student, to learn the very principles necessary to follow Jesus fully, to come to know the Father intimately, and fulfill your destiny. The Stages Heaven is a wonderful, eternal byproduct of being born again. However, as wonderful as this is; we are born again to first see then enter the Kingdom of God. The Kingdom includes Heaven, as it is God's rule over everything everywhere, but our Journey is primarily on earth, preparing for Heaven, by seeing and entering the Journey of life to fulfill our Kingdom purpose. John the Apostle, who was closest to Jesus during his ministry in Israel, describes our Journey in three stages; children, young men and fathers (1 John 2:12-14). In brief, childhood is where we all start, and as new believers we need some things (discussed fully in this book). Some manage to know who God is, know that sins are truly forgiven; past, present and future (you belong in God's ever expanding family), and you have those wonderful benefits simply because God loves you just as you are. Thus, similar to a young child, you have a huge learning curve to prepare you for maturity and the place to learn is to be in a loving, nurturing church, where your every effort to grow is rewarded, and your multiple failures and mistakes are lovingly corrected for your benefit. Of course, there is much to learn, and your education will take you to the next stages as young men or women. The timing is up to the Holy Spirit. Young men and women also have much to learn. Again, John summarizes this as a necessity of becoming strong through the Word of God, (living and written) living in and through you, and having overcome the enemy's attempt to keep you from growing (which is His goal) once you are lost to the Kingdom of Darkness, having become a child of the light. Many ask; what must I overcome? That is as individual as your unique set of finger prints, but we are covered on the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life (1 John 2:16), more on that later...just know overcoming will happen. God is with you in it, it is normal and natural to have stuff to overcome. You are not a second class Christian if you have issues, and we all do. The final stage is Fathers. John summarizes a father as one who knows the Father; His will, His ways, His voice, His calling, etc. In other words, they are mature enough to father children and guide young men and women toward their maturity. Please note, maturity is the goal presented in the Bible as holiness, not flawless perfection. That we will never obtain this side of Heaven, but maturity; yes indeed! Of course, you must choose to take the journey and after being born again (and hopefully soon, if not already), baptized in water and filled with the Holy Spirit. This book is designed to help you lay a solid, biblical foundation for the early stages of your Christian life. So, get ready, get set, go! Dr. Stan DeKoven

Origen was one of the most influential pre-Nicene church fathers, whose exegetical method shaped much of subsequent interpretation of the Old Testament. Some of his theological speculations were condemned in the 6th cenutry, but his influence as a Christian scholar and Old Testament exegete remain undiminished. This book offers a fresh, contemporary translation of Origen's 28 homilies on the book of Numbers.
