I have an outstanding God; I have a superb Lord; I have an all sufficient King who supplies my every need according to His riches and glory. He is the force that drives me; the power that moves me; the inspiration that motivates me; the strength that upholds me. His name is Jesus Christ; He is God manifested in the flesh. My name is Jim Griffith, and I am an apostolic Christian; born again; sanctified; water baptized; and Holy Ghost filled. Time would not suffice for me to describe my feelings of every Church, but I must say that I love this type: an Apostolic, United, Overcoming, Pentecostal, Holy Church. Currently I am employed by the U.S. military; the service I will not specify, but I will discuss the spiritual government of which I am enrolled. I am enrolled in the Army of the LORD; the Christian-hood of God. As we press forward into the pages of this book, I pray that your heart will be impressed by the Holy Spirit of God; that your soul will be uplifted into the heavens; that your spirit will be ushered into the living presence of God. Jesus Christ is our only hope, only life, and only salvation; may we understand His character, quality, and identity in order to become partakers of His Eternal Spirit & Eternal life. This book is formulated alphabetically in order to institute a new spiritual alphabet founded on diverse titles of Jesus Christ. There is so much we have not discovered about the Lord Jesus Christ, and it is my attempt to present Him to you in a new light and new way. Let's go forth & overcome! Let God Arise! Let His enemies be scattered! This is who I am and what I desire!

Complex Criminal Litigation: Prosecuting Drug Enterprises and Organized Crime provides practitioners and others interested in the federal criminal justice system with a comprehensive analysis of the arsenal of federal laws that provide federal prosecutors the means to combat criminal organizations, their leadership (i.e. the so-called "kingpins") and their infrastructure. These statutes include the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO); the Continuing Criminal Enterprise or CCE statute; the Money Laundering Control Act; federal firearms statutes; and criminal and civil forfeiture laws that permit the seizure and forfeiture of the profits and instrumentalities of illegal enterprises. Further, the treatise includes an analysis of the principal legal issues that federal prosecutors and defense attorneys need to consider in handling long-term, complex criminal conspiracies that frequently involve multiple and diverse criminal acts from the rules relating to grand jury secrecy, granting immunity, bail, criminal discovery, and all points in between. Finally, because organized criminal activity respects no national boundaries, the treatise includes a comprehensive discussion of international criminal law, including extraterritorial jurisdiction and extradition. Criminal trial attorneys involved in litigating complex criminal cases will benefit greatly from reading this treatise.

MARK BIBLE COMMENTARY After nearly 40 years of full-time ministry, Brother Swaggart published his first commentary on the book of Genesis that was later described as “the most helpful Bible commentary ever published.” It would take nearly 20 years to complete the entire commentary series—from Genesis to Revelation. True to Pentecostal theology, the Jimmy Swaggart Commentary collection leads its readers chapter by chapter to a better understanding of the Bible. Rather than providing notes on every Bible verse, these commentaries focus on the salient verses of each chapter to offer the reader a condensed synopsis of what the Holy Spirit intended. Where most relevant, cultural and historical references are also included, along with explanations of the allegories, types, and symbolisms used in the Bible to add depth and dimension for students of the Holy Scriptures. Yet, what seems to separate this work from all other commentaries are the biblical applications made to present day circumstances facing every believer. Printed on high-quality paper and bound with a beautiful hardback cover, this unique reference will be cherished by anyone who loves to study the Word of God.
J. J. M.

The Word of God alone gives us the account of the most astounding happenings for the future that Planet Earth will ever see. They are soon to come to pass.

This book, we believe, will help you to understand these great events to come as possibly you’ve not experienced previously. The material therein is a must for every Believer.

This biography of Marcus Cato the Younger -- Rome's bravest statesman, an aristocratic soldier, a Stoic philosopher, and staunch defender of sacred Roman tradition -- is rich with resonances for current politics and contemporary notions of freedom.
• Only Jesus was referred to as the Son of David. Believers are never referred to as such, but rather as children of Abraham. • As a result, Abraham is listed after David respecting the Lineage of Christ, and is given a place in the very first Scripture of the Bible. • It was to Abraham that the great Doctrine of Justification by Faith was given. In fact, the Holy Spirit used this great truth given to Abraham in instructions given to the Apostle Paul (Romans, Chapters 4-5). • No man in the Old Testament played as great a role as did Abraham, other than Moses.
Writing a book can never be something that just happens. It takes time, dedication, and persistence to complete such a huge task. Being a full-time employee, business owner, father, uncle, mentor, friend, and so many other things to many, it would have not been possible to complete this task without the support of my family, friends, colleagues, and employees at the number of agencies, universities, and colleges I was afforded an opportunity to work with over the years. Each of you continued to inspire my writings and study of politics, social justice, community, education, African-American culture, and poverty issues. Finally, I give a special thanks to my two sons, Jimmy Dawson McCamey III and Jamey Lawson McCamey, who inspired me to write about black boys, black families, and the black community.
David is without a doubt one of the most striking characters in the entirety of the Bible. He was a man who saw higher heights and deeper lows possibly more than any other human being, at least one used by God, has ever seen. It was through his family that the Messiah of Israel and the Saviour of the world would come. That’s the reason the New Testament begins with “The Book of the Generation of Jesus Christ, the Son of David, the Son of Abraham” (Mat. 1:1). In fact, David is the first human name given in the New Testament and the last human name given in the New Testament (Rev. 22-16). I believe this book will take you through the life of this great man, and that it will speak to your own experience with the Lord. As stated, there was none quite like David. We begin to realize how great this man was when we heart the statement, as it refers to our Lord, “Jesus Christ, the Son of David.” Nothing could be higher than that!

This dream seems almost impossible because of neglectful owners, being abandoned in the woods, and then the Humane Society! Will the help of a German shepherd friend named King and a squirrel named Squeaky be enough to lift her spirits? She might be small, but she'll fight for the love she seeks.
Names can tell us a great deal about people, and the names of Jesus are no exception. The Gospels alone offer more than one hundred names for Christ, presenting a beautiful picture of Him as our Teacher, King, and Lord. Our Light, our Living Water, and so much more. The Magnificent Names of Jesus is a unique prayer guide that explores 37 of these memorable names, all to show children the breadth and depth of Christ. Each short chapter spotlights one name and offers a modern-day explanation, Scripture, and name-focused prayer. Written in a welcoming style as a “read to me” / “read with me” book, it can be used as a devotional for children and families, with charming illustrations to further convey the message and meaning behind each name. As kids learn to pray to Jesus their Shepherd, Jesus their Friend, and dozens more, the experience brings deep heart change both for the children and the loving adults who read with them. Allow this unique guide to shape your children's faith as they learn and love the magnificent names of Jesus.
Imagine a modern world where magic exists thanks to mythic Crystals. Swords. Guns. Sorcery. Magical creatures. All will collide in this modern allegorical tale of war. Welcome to the world of Ia.
In the same spirit as his previous book, Big Jesus, Watson takes us on a journey through the Gospel of Luke with a touch of humor and a wheelbarrow full of insights and information. Watson believes nothing is more pretentiously self-pious than to write something and call it a “devotional” unless one has already been canonized as a saint. An Undevotional is not a spoon-fed offering of theological niceties, but rather a head-spinning array of possibilities into the mind and ministry of Jesus of Nazareth with contemporary applications. At times irreverent, at all times interesting, this book is un-indispensable for Jesus devotees and un-devotees alike.
The reason this book was written was to bring more people to feel the love that our Savior has offered us all, or strengthen the love that already exist between. Too hopefully inspire some of us who have lost or veered from the eternal path of God to come back to the road that leads to a eternal home in Heaven. To help us find that spiritual paradise that is in us all, for it has already been prepared by our Creator and is within.
Inspiration of Hope are special messages which were preached across the years by the author. His style of preaching and writing infuses the listening audience with hope and inspiration to serve the living God.
Heal Emotional Wounds and Free Yourself from the Past We all experience emotional pain, but few of us know how to deal with it properly. Our unresolved pain accumulates deep within the recesses of our hearts, in a place Jimmy Evans calls the "hurt pocket." The more we accumulate, the more we are mentally, emotionally, and relationally crippled. But what if we could reach into that hurt pocket, confront our pain, and experience release and freedom? In this life-changing book, Jimmy Evans shows you how to completely remove and resolve every negative event from your past that is compromising your present and keeping you from your God-given destiny. With inspired vulnerability and searing honesty, he helps you forgive others (and yourself) and discover true inner peace and hope for the future.
This is, we believe, the most unique Daily Devotional in the world today. All 366 Messages, one for each day of the year (including leap year), in some way deal with the Cross of Christ. Consequently, the wealth of Doctrine, help, strength, encouragement, and blessing carried in this Volume is, we think, exceptional. It addresses modern-day problems, which can be solved only by the age-old remedy of the Word of God.

Theologian Harry Lee Poe and chemist Jimmy H. Davis argue that God's interaction with our world is a possibility affirmed equally by the Bible and the contemporary scientific record. Rather than confirming that the cosmos is closed to the actions of the divine, advancing scientific knowledge seems to indicate that the nature of the universe is actually open to the unique type of divine activity portrayed in the Bible.

When it comes to living the Christian life, just how foolish are we? The apostle Paul called some Galatians foolish when they, like many Christians today, embraced justification by faith, but when it came to sanctification—how to live for God—they slipped into works, which made victory over the world, the flesh, and the devil impossible. In this priceless teaching, Evangelist Jimmy Swaggart expounds the connection between the process of sanctification and cross of Jesus Christ.
This is the first scholarly history of the only regular army cavalry regiment raised during the Civil War. Unlike volunteer regiments raised by individual states, the regular regiments drew soldiers from across the country. By war's end 2,130 men and at least one woman from 29 states and 14 countries served in the 6th U.S. Cavalry. The regiment's initial cast of officers included two grandsons of a former president, a cousin of Confederate President Jefferson Davis, two cousins of the governor of Pennsylvania, the son of a Radical Republican senator who opposed President Lincoln, and a number of enlisted soldiers promoted from the ranks. The book relies heavily upon primary sources to tell the regiment's story in the words of the participants. These include diaries and letters of officers and enlisted soldiers alike, several of which are previously unpublished. Official reports are excerpted when appropriate to provide the commander's view of the regiment's performance.
