The Son of God came in human form as Jesus the Nazarene to accomplish a mission that was impossible by man’s standards. However, what is impossible with man is possible with God – Luke 18:27. When it seemed all was lost and fallen mankind was doomed for perpetual self-destruction and eternal damnation, the HERO appeared albeit not in any pomp or grandeur. Quite the contrary, He was anything but a hero according to worldly standards. In His very short stint on earth, He did so many things that even all the volumes in the world would not be able to contain them if they were written down – John 21:25. Yet His heroic deeds ran against the very grain of the fads then. He ended up dying a horrific and shameful death of the Cross. But the story did not end there. By the awesome power of His resurrection from the dead, He demolished every diabolical forces that were at work against the human race. He slapped the fiendish devil from ear to ear, thoroughly disarmed and rendered him completely powerless. The salvation plan of God was completed and the mission of saving the world, accomplished. This book captures the broad overview of the milestones of Jesus’ mission on earth as recorded in Mark 5:21-43. The typologies within that account shed light on the awesome wisdom of God. So brace yourself for an exhilarating journey as you flip through the pages of the book. Be blessed!

Salvation is more than simply praying, "I'm sorry" and then expecting to enter heaven when you die. It's a journey with distinct moments in time that define who we are and to whom we belong. This journey brings us into a love relationship with the Lord God Almighty through faith in Jesus. It gives us our purpose in life and enables us to become the people God created us to be. Come, join me on this journey. The path will not always be easy: It involves sacrifice and self-denial. Choosing to follow the course chartered by God will, however, be the best and most rewarding decision you ever make.

The book traces the role of Judaism and the Jewish people in God's plan for the salvation of mankind, from Abraham through the Second Coming, as revealed by the Catholic faith and by a thoughtful examination of history. It will give Christians a deeper understanding of Judaism, both as a religion in itself and as a central component of Christian salvation. To Jews it reveals the incomprehensible importance, nobility and glory that Judaism most truly has. It examines the unique and central role Judaism plays in the destiny of the world. It documents that throughout history attacks on Jews and Judaism have been rooted not in Christianity, but in the most anti-Christian of forces. Areas addressed include: the Messianic prophecies in Jewish scripture; the anti-Christian roots of Nazi anti-Semitism; the links between Nazism and Arab anti-Semitism; the theological insights of major Jewish converts; and the role of the Jews in the Second Coming. "Perplexed by controversies new and old about the destiny of the Jewish people? Read this book by a Jew who became a Catholic for a well-written, provocative, ground-breaking account. Some of the answers most have never heard before." Ronda Chervin, Ph.D., Hebrew-Catholic

After we’ve come to faith in Christ, God leaves us in this world for a very clear purpose: his own glory. But how are we to glorify God for the rest of our lives? The Bible reveals that God has laid before every Christian two infinite journeys which we are to travel every day: the internal journey of growth into Christlike maturity, and the external journey of worldwide evangelism and missions. This book is a road map for the internal journey, laying out how we are to grow in four major areas: knowledge, faith, character, and action. In this book, we’ll learn how God grows us in knowledge, faith, character, and action. We’ll also discover that spiritual knowledge constantly feeds our growing faith, faith will transform our character, our transformed character will result in an array of actions more and more glorifying to God, and our actions will feed our spiritual knowledge. This upward spiral will lead us to become more and more like Jesus Christ in holiness. And not only will this book help us understand Christian growth in detail, it will also give us a passion to grow every day for his glory.
