Seine Hand drang in den Mondstrahl, warf langgezogene Schatten in das silberne Licht. In seiner Faust hielt er einen Dolch umklammert. Das Eisen sog durstig den Mondschein auf. Doch dem Führer der Klinge dürstete es nach mehr... Blut spritzte heiß auf Dinas Haut, rann zusammen mit ihren Tränen über ihre Wangen.

Tag um Tag verging. Doch ließ sich der Tag nicht mehr von der Nacht unterscheiden. Immerdar war es dunkler. Und immerdar war es still. So trieben sie dahin auf dem kalten Grab der Menschheit.

JEREMIAH lived in very troubled times. As a Prophet of God, he had a very strong message for the people of his time. Known as the “Weeping Prophet”, Jeremiah’s heart broke for his people. Rebellious and stubborn, they rushed headlong into judgment and he could do nothing to stop them. At the same time, he preached God’s Word fearlessly and without compromise in the midst of a perverse generation and there are some wonderful principles and promises in his book for our benefit. We live in parallel times to Jeremiah. The Rapture of the Church is imminent, but there is still time to ...

“For in all the world there is nothing to equal the day on which the Song of Songs was given to Israel, for all the writings are Holy, but the Song of Songs is the Holy of Holies.” Such is the importance expressed by Rabbi Aqiba in the year 90 A.D and echoes my recent fascination with the Biblical writings that I have largely been ignorant of. For more than 10 years, I have done a deep-dive study of the Song of Songs and what I learned is that there may have been more than the Tree of Life and the Tree of Knowledge in the Garden of Eden recorded in the book of Genesis. At first glance, ...

Obwohl David wusste, dass er die Ehe ehren sollte, konnte er der Versuchung nicht widerstehen und ließ Batseba zu sich in den Königsaal holen. Er sagte sich, dass er nur ein Gespräch mit ihr zu führen beabsichtigte. Gleichzeitig aber sprachen seine Taten etwas anderes. Denn er schickte alle Diener und Wachen hinaus, sodass er allein mit der schönen Frau war.

God doesn’t stand separately from life calling humanity unto Him; He takes the initiative and emerges in the midst of life offering the world a way of reconciliation. There is coming a day every known and unknown part of the universe, along with God's people, will exhale a final sigh of bondage and inhale endless freedom. Restoration and renewal are words of the soul. They sound healing to our souls that can be felt.

A Masterclass in Blessing: First Receive, Then Give In intercession, we go up to God: “God help us. God, your kingdom come.” A vertical prayer. But with blessing, we pray out, horizontally. We look to people and bless them. We reach out and tell the hearers how special they are. Most of us have little experience in blessing, of either receiving or giving. The prayer of blessing can feel a bit uncomfortable, a bit stretching. And yet we realize that God promised Abraham, “All peoples on earth will be blessed through you.” We want to be part of that blessing, both of receiving and ...

Passover is a Jewish celebration of the mighty acts of God in liberating the ancient Israelites from slavery in Egypt. But as best-selling Christian author Martin Roth shows, it is also much more. For the events that culminated in Passover tell us a momentous story about God’s power, His love for His people and His justice. Yet there is even more. Because Passover is a story with a further deep and resounding message – that God’s mighty act in redeeming the Israelites foreshadows another, even mightier, act, when He will come to Earth in the form of a baby. And this time He will ...

Der Herr hält allen seine rettende Hand hin. Doch du kannst sie nicht ergreifen, weil du dich von ihm abgewandt hast. Mit jedem Unschuldigen, den du töten ließest, hast du dich weiter vom Herrn entfernt. Nun, am Rand des Abgrunds versuchst du, dich zu retten. Doch dafür ist es zu spät. Dein Königtum wird dir aus der Hand gerissen werden. Und deine Armee, in die du mehr Vertrauen als in den Herrn gesetzt hast, wird im Blut untergehen.

Die Erde erbebte, als Goliath auf David zustürmte. Sowohl die Philister als auch die Israeliten hielten vor Anspannung die Luft an. Atemlos sahen sie zu, wie die Lücke zwischen dem Riesen und dem jungen David immer kleiner wurde.

Nicht ein einziges Mal habe ich deinen Namen gesagt. Denn du bist nicht mehr der Gleiche von einst. Deswegen sollst du vor dem Herrn auch nicht mehr Jakob heißen, sondern Israel. Denn du hast mit Gott und mit Menschen und mit dir selbst und deiner Angst gekämpft und hast obsiegt.

The "Adam gene" is a concept often associated with the Y-chromosomal Adam, which is the most recent common ancestor from whom all currently living humans are directly descended patrilineally. This term comes from the biblical figure Adam and refers to the male counterpart to the mitochondrial Eve, the most recent common matrilineal ancestor. Y-chromosomal Adam lived thousands of years ago and is estimated based on genetic analysis.
