Martin Luther, Master of Deceit, by Dr. Max D. Younce, is a classic, revealing the lies, deceit, and apostasy of Martin Luther?s philosophy. His book examines and exposes the following:Luther did not believe God?s Ten Commandments, eliminating the Second one in his Catechisms. To cover this up and deceive you, he divided the Tenth Commandment, making two commandments out of it; showing Ten in his catechisms without your being aware that the Second Commandment is missing.Luther says baptism ?Works forgiveness of sins, delivers from death and the Devil; and gives eternal salvation to all who believe this.? Each verse used by Luther is examined in detail. Luther deceives by taking only a part of a verse, and/or eliminating the context completely.Luther says baptism saves you, even if you do not believe; or, have faith in Jesus Christ. This is exposed inside.Luther did not believe the Bible concerning the Rapture, the 7-Year Tribulation, Millennial Reign of Christ on earth; nor, the restoration of the nation of Israel.Luther teaches that he and his preachers can forgive your sins. A full exposition is given in exposing this lie of deception. Luther hated the Jewish people and ordered their synagogues to be burned, their Bibles confiscated, and all of them forbidden to teach.Luther teaches ?infants? must be baptized; yet, THIS IS FOUND NOWHERE IN THE BIBLE.Luther?s water baptism is opposed to faith in the shed blood of Jesus Christ, ALONE, on the cross for eternal salvation!
What were the intentions of the Founders? Was the American constitution designed to protect individual rights? To limit the powers of government? To curb the excesses of democracy? Or to create a robust democratic nation-state? These questions echo through today's most heated legal and political debates. In this powerful new interpretation of America's origins, Max Edling argues that the Federalists were primarily concerned with building a government that could act vigorously in defense of American interests. The Constitution transferred the powers of war making and resource extraction from the states to the national government thereby creating a nation-state invested with all the important powers of Europe's eighteenth-century "fiscal-military states." A strong centralized government, however, challenged the American people's deeply ingrained distrust of unduly concentrated authority. To secure the Constitution's adoption the Federalists had to accommodate the formation of a powerful national government to the strong current of anti-statism in the American political tradition. They did so by designing a government that would be powerful in times of crisis, but which would make only limited demands on the citizenry and have a sharply restricted presence in society. The Constitution promised the American people the benefit of government without its costs. Taking advantage of a newly published letterpress edition of the constitutional debates, A Revolution in Favor of Government recovers a neglected strand of the Federalist argument, making a persuasive case for rethinking the formation of the federal American state.
In day-to-day speech we use words and phrases without a passing thought as to why we use them or where they come from. Max Cryer changes all that by showing how fascinating the English language really is. Did you know that the former host of Today, Jane Pauley, claims to have coined the term “bad hair day,” or that a CBS engineer named Charley Douglass invented the name and use of “canned laughter” for television, or that “cold turkey” as a term for quitting something immediately was popularized by the novel and movie (starring Frank Sinatra), The Man with the Golden Arm? Here you’ll learn the origins of “credibility gap,” “my lips are sealed,” “the opera’s not over until the fat lady sings,” “supermarket,” “supermodel,” “there’s no accounting for taste,” “thick as thieves,” and hundreds more. For anyone who loves language, this new book will “take the cake.”
