Es klingt nach einer Aufgabe, wie jede andere auch, die eine junge Lehrerin auf einem abgelegenen Landsitz zu erfüllen hat. Kinder unterrichten, das richtige Benehmen lehren, dafür sorgen, dass alles in geordneten Bahnen läuft. Anfangs scheint alles genauso zu laufen. Bald aber zeigt sich, dass hinter der goldigen Fassade der Kinder etwas lauert. Etwas Unaussprechliches. Etwas Böses. Etwas, dass nur eines will - zurückkehren ins Reich der Lebenden.

Jeder kennt die Geschichte des nie erwachsenwerdenden Jungen. Jeder weiß, wer Peter Pan ist. Keiner kann sich seinen Abenteuern entziehen. Auch Wendy Darling nicht, die insgeheim immer davon geträumt hatte, niemals erwachsen werden zu müssen. Nicht so pflichtbewusst zu sein wie ihr Vater, der nichts anderes kennt, als seine Arbeit.

In First Corinthians chapter fifteen, Paul talked in great detail about the resurrection of the dead. He had already had an unpleasant experience with the Greek scholars and philosophers at Mars hill because they did not believe in the resurrection of the dead. Also many of the Greeks in Corinth did not think that the dead will be resurrected either. So First Corinthians chapter fifteen is often called the resurrection chapter because Paul went into great detail about it for the benefit of the Corinthian saints. But as much as anything, his message to them was also in response to some of ...

In the first four chapters of this first Bible-recorded letter to the church in Corinth, which was obviously not conveniently divided into four easy-to-read chapters, Paul had talked about a division in the church that he had learned about from either Chloe or from a person in Chloe's household. Then in the next four chapters of the first volume of this commentary on the book of First Corinthians, he had talked about fornication in the church, taking a brother or sister in the Lord to court, to marry or not to marry, and the Christian position on eating meats that had been offered to idols....

But in looking at his ...

Twenty-seven times in the King James Version (KJV) of the Bible the phrase "be not afraid" appears. Therefore, each of those cases will be discussed in this text. To better analyze them, they have been broken into eight categories. The first category, which is to "be not afraid" of the Lord, will be examined in chapters one, two, and three of this text. Those chapters will look closely at the ruler of the synagogue whose daughter had just died and also at the disciples when they had seen Jesus walking to them on the water. The second category, which is to "be not afraid" of the unexpected, ...

Second Thessalonians is the third letter that the Apostle Paul wrote to any of the local churches. In the opening chapter of this book, one will see how and when he had gotten to the place to where he wrote this letter. It is very interesting to retrace his travels throughout the region, along with the travels of Silas and Timothy. Bible scholars have done an excellent job of examining the scriptures and the movements of key people to put everything into the right context and the right timeframe. That having been said, Paul was in his second Bible-recorded missionary journey. So this letter...

Earlier this year in 2022, I completed a daily devotion book on the book of Proverbs. That book was intentionally meant to be very non-technical. By design, the devotions were meant to be easy to read and understand but without involving the reader with a lot of Hebrew words and scripture references. So that book was completed earlier this year in one very large volume. But now, this book, which is being prepared as six separate parts in six volumes, is meant to be everything that the devotion book was not meant to be. For example, each of the devotions that are in the devotion book are ...

This letter to the local churches in Galatia is probably Paul's second letter to some of the churches that he had established. His first letter was to the church at Thessalonica. To the Thessalonians, he was much more pleasant because he had just gotten a positive report from Timothy about their good spiritual progress. But in this letter to the Galatians, he was very much less positive because he had been told that they had returned to the Law of Moses and were telling the Gentile Christians that they had to be circumcised. So in dealing with the key issues of true biblical salvation, Paul...

This detailed outline for the end-time prophecies has been divided into thirteen chapters. It should probably be suitable for a diligent student of the Bible who wants to look through the prophecies in an outline format. It will also be good for anyone who wants an easier way to study the prophecies. Each chapter will begin with a focus for the entire chapter. Then a list of usually five questions will follow which are intended to guide the reader through the most important parts of the chapter. The structure of each chapter is in a somewhat loose outline format. That should make it easier ...

Ten places in the Bible, mention is made about events and decisions that were made from, before, or since the foundation of the world. Four of those occasions were spoken by Jesus during His public ministry. One was written by the Apostle Paul. One was written by the Apostle Peter. Two occurrences were included in the book of Hebrews. Two occurrences were mentioned in the book of Revelation. In chapters one through three of this text, two of the writings about events and decisions from the foundation of the world will be shared. First, Jesus taught secrets about the Word of God and secrets ...

Life’s Purpose: Spiritual, Finance, Relationships, Health, & Mental Health

The first part of this book talks about the very grim subject of what it will be like to die lost. Nothing in this existence is as bad as or any worse than leaving this existence and entering into eternal condemnation. Jesus talked about two places of punishment. The first, called hades, is condemnation of the soul. The souls of people who have already died and were lost are there right now. The souls of people who will die lost will soon go there. Hades is not a nice place. In fact, it is a horrible place to be at even for a little while. But as bad as hades may be, gehenna will be much ...

This third edition of my heaven book explains the reasons for Satan, Adam, Eve, and the rest of human existence as it has been known for the past six thousand-plus years. It presents logical certainties about heaven and what people will do once they are there. In fact, one gets a good understanding of what the saints of God can expect on the other side of the grave just from looking at things like the seven days of Creation. This book does not do an exhaustive study of that. But it does use instances where the Lord had said that He was pleased for determining what heaven will be like. So if...

This book is the second daily devotion book that I have written for regular daily use on Facebook. As such, it is very similar to the first devotion book that I wrote for Facebook. The main difference, however, is that many of the devotions in this book are based on some of the other books that I have also written. For example, some of the devotions are based on the characters that were identified in my book entitled "A Guide for Life Is God for Life." Some are based on the book "Twenty-one Steps to Living One's Best Life." Some are based on the book "The Apostate Church Will Soon Be Here."...
