Praise God I was born and raised in a place and time which my extended family had little. There was never enough food, and clothing was sparse. I grew up without a father, though notwithstanding, having many females in the family, there were always men around. In this continual scenario, I was able to see what sin really is and how it takes advantage of the deceived, eventually taking their lives.I completed an online seminary course and improved my knowledge of God's Word. I held church services in my home weekly, for over ten years. I have led many people to Christ and counseled them concerning how the deceiver was trying to rob them. I pray that God remembers that I shared the love he shares with me.

In this book, Professor Schulz performs a critical dissection of an educational institution infected by a disease. Whether called"social justice" or "diversity, equity, and inclusion," or labeled by its opponents as "woke Marxism," the result is the same: thedisease corrupts the institutional host by denying the basic dignity of all human beings. To be sure, such a malevolent theory stands in contrast to basic Christian teachings on equality. But an institution, such as Concordia, that embraces such a theory risks profound legal consequence. As the United States Supreme Court affirmed in the summer of 2023, American law demands equal treatment of all citizens, especially in the educational setting, where race should never be a factor. Educational institutions-even private institutions like Concordia-that impose DEI or "affirmative action" policies upon a student body or faculty violate federal law, risk losing federal funding, and face the prospect of punitive damages in federal court. Higher educational institutions would do well to carefully consider not only moral and Christian teachings, but also thelegal consequences of engaging in the "sordid business" of "divvying us up by race," as the Supreme Court has warned.What is at stake is not simply the prevalent educational ideology, policy, and terminology, but the minds and hearts of students, administrators, and teachers and their adherence to the Word of God, to Holy Scripture, and ultimately the justification of faith through Christ alone, all in the name of church. This is the battle of our time. In this book, Schulz is sounding the certain, clarion call of the trumpet. The church of Christ needs to prepare for battle in these latter days. We had best pay heed and have a care.

Our Father tells us that if we want to know about the end-times with understanding, then ask Him. He will inundate every person who asks with this knowledge explaining His truths as recorded in His Word. All the events leading up to the end of this dispensation of time, this second world age in which humankind has inhabited the earth, have been presented by our Father in His written letter to us--the Bible.This book explains the who, what, where, when, and why of these events as written straight from the Bible in witness to the world events of today. When necessary, copies of the original manuscripts of the earliest Hebrew and Greek languages in which the Bible was first written are utilized, preserving God's truths apart from any of man's influencing academia, religions, denominations, doctrines, tenants, traditions, interpretations, philosophies, theologies, commentaries, or fables--just the Bible.The end of this age centers on two tribulations, Satan's originating first, followed by Christ's Second Advent, His return. To fully understand them and their purpose, one must be cognizant of the whole story fundamental to understanding the mysteries of God's master plan established from the beginning, from the very first earth and heaven age.Sadly, most people are unlearned, therefore oblivious to God's realities as we go about our daily lives today. Knowledge of these events is brought forth in biblical teachings. This book explains these teachings and will provide a comprehensive understanding of God's whole story. Besides the subjects as indexed, you will learn of many other things, such as the simplicity in purpose of God's plan of salvation through His Son, Jesus Christ; the documenting of this generation as the last; an understanding in witness to the four dynasties bringing about the establishment of globalism today--the one-world order--and how these and many other things work together in culminating the end to this earth age and more.It is "His Story," and as His children, it is imperative that we understand our Father's final plea as we approach the end to this dispensation of time. This is "Humanity's Eleventh Hour."

We are all sinners, but do children really realize that? And do they understand why they have bad feelings about themselves, others, and their situations sometimes? The True Colors of Our Hearts helps to identify and name sins for them, gives children practical ways to work on or "cure" those feelings, and keeps them from escalating to sinful actions. All of this is done in a fun and "colorful" way that children will enjoy and relate to. And, through this study, they will develop a relationship with the King as they rely on him throughout the process. The ultimate goal will be that they learn how to better show love for him and for others.

American culture has failed. We, the people, have gone astray from what we were founded upon. With every decade and generation, we have slipped further away from the truth. A new "truth" has been the driving force, and has destroyed our foundation in God: Humanism. Humanism teaches there is no God. Humanism teaches that humans are the highest authority and that every individual's perceptive truth is correct. Humanism is atheism. But, there is a God. And it can be proven. And if it can be proven, then God's truth is the only one. He is the foundation we need to stand upon.The Foundation We Stand Upon masterfully combines history, science, and God, and provides persuasive arguments for:- the existence of God- the destructive ideology of humanism- the need for a stronger family- the political murder of our culture- the need to return to God
