In this book, the author addresses a common challenge among Christians: misinterpreting scripture due to a lack of context. Through personal anecdotes and theological insights, he explains how even seasoned theologians can misread passages. However, he argues that acknowledging the potential for misunderstanding allows room for growth and correction by God. By delving into the Book of Job—a frequently misunderstood text—the author illustrates how these interpretation techniques can be applied practically.

Metaphysics, the secret doctrine of the Dead, is traditionally and invariably couched in intrigue and mystery within the darkness of seances, haunted buildings, ghosts and demons; not truly taken seriously. Talk of death in our age is frowned upon, for the World has no answers to offer but to avoid discussion. This is changing now in front of us, old habits are fading as internal knowledge breaks through the barrier of conventional discussion and allows our society to more freely examine personal internal experiences having more validity than the physical world symbols we presently judge by.

If you like the sunshine this book is for you. If you like the ocean this book is for you.

Step into the captivating world of British theatre with The Quizziology of the British Drama, a delightful and witty exploration of the plays, playwrights, and performances that have shaped the stage. Penned by the brilliant satirist and dramatist Gilbert Abbott A'Beckett, this charming book explores the stage passions through extended verse, a motley crew of stage characters that no good play is without, and a series of one-act 'deleted' plays in the style of famous playwrights of the time.

In this short work, Allen explores the way in which our minds create and interact with our circumstances, travelling from the inner world of thoughts to the final conquest of the spirit. On the way he explores the way in which we create our own futures through the habits we choose, how bodily conditions are no excuse for spiritual weakness, and how true poverty is of the mind, not the circumstances.

This is perhaps Allen's most directly sociological and philosophical work. In it, he treats of the evolution of the systems man has created to help navigate and manipulate the world. Along the way, he unpacks the ways in which the new science of flight will lead to a different consciousness, just as the locomotive had done in his lifetime; the reason people so often misunderstand the meaning of 'survival of the fittest', and its appropriate application to human life, and more.

This is the heartbreaking and passionate tale of true love's blindness and destruction by the bestselling author of the Victorian era, who romances were beloved of figures as diverse as Gladstone, Churchill, and Queen Victoria herself.
