This is the perfect wedding gift for many couples, having been written by the founder of the Protestant denomination of Christianity, Martin Luther. The three sermons he presents reflect the immense value a couple should place on this holy bonding from God, and what a marriage ring really means. Ministers may also find this book useful because the sermons, or portions of them, can be used in their own sermons or ceremonies. It also contains Luther's own wording for a wedding ceremony.

Translated from the Russian by Victor Marsden. The Protocols supposedly outlines a plan of action by elders of the Jewish Nation to rule the world -- to take control over key organizations, including assets, in order to manipulate world affairs in their favor. Some say the issue has already been settled conclusively -- that it is clearly a forgery. Although there may be final evidence to this effect, we have not seen a clear and convincing version of it produced by those making the claim. Others maintain that it was and is absolutely genuine -- proven by the fact that all copies were...

This rare and fascinating book is filled with incredible information about the oldest mythological story in the world -- that of the dragon. Similar stories exist worldwise, in all cultures, of this elusive and powerful creature.

Many common themes are shown to exist between Christianity and earlier Pagan religions that go back in time centuries before Christianity itself.

Following this came a cult of magic, much along the lines of Fraziers The Golden Bough, where spirits...

This work was originally published by the independent Bible Society of New York. This edition is an updated version with a new introduction by Paul Tice. The Bible is commonly referred to by many of us as "the good book." But do we really know whats in it when we so freely give it that title? It is a work which certainly has its good points, but why do we insist on glossing over and ignoring the things that would be considered bad or embarrassing? Lots of strange things happened in the Bible. If they made the Bible into a movie (in its entirety) it would be rated X. Would you want your kids...
