Adventures in Revelation is written especially for young readers. While it is biblically sound, it details the Second Coming of Jesus Christ in a format that youth and adults can comprehend. Without a doubt, children have questions about the end times. They want to know about the rapture, the tribulation, and eternity. They question if Jesus is really coming back. What about heaven and hell? Will they be subjected to the scary things that they have heard about? They ask if babies will go to heaven, and on and on the questions go. Find answers to these and other questions as we tour the heavens with the beloved disciple John. Adventures in Revelation is filled with pictures and interactive moments to assure the readers that their salvation is secure in Jesus.
Throughout the book, the young readers are encouraged to give their lives to the Lord if they have not already done so. They are assured that Jesus loves them more than anything in the world and that once they know who they are in Christ, they will have no fear of the Book of Revelation and discover the many blessings and promises found in the Word of God.

Описание:
"Every teacher in English is a teacher of English," said George Sampson, one of the early school inspectors, back in 1921. It's never been truer, or more relevant.
Literacy has a major impact on young people's life-chances and it is every teacher's responsibility to help build their communication, reading and writing skills. However, this book isn't just about literacy; it's also about what great teachers do in their classrooms, about applying knowledge consistently across classrooms, in order to help pupils to become more confident in their subjects.
This book shows every teacher - whatever your subject - the simple steps which could transform your students into better speakers, listeners, readers and writers. Harnessing a range of straightforward, but powerful techniques, it shows you how to help each student in your subject to improve their spelling, to use the key vocabulary of your subject more accurately and to speak, read and write with confidence like a historian, scientist, designer or mathematician.
The book is structured into clear sections which are then divided into short, easy-to-absorb units on the classroom implications of what we know about literacy. Don't Call it Literacy also includes:
language commentaries which exemplify points made by the author;
talking points at the end of each unit for self-assessment;
a glossary for non-specialists;
subject specific vocabulary for building students' word power;
tutor time spellings lists;
a reading list on teaching, language, literacy and education.
Written by a leading authority in the field, this book will help both trainee and practising secondary school teachers to turn their classroom into literacy-friendly environments, increasing the motivation and achievement of their students.

Описание:
Many of us have been told that we will be "raptured out of here before the Antichrist arrives." But what if this is wrong? Is this really what the Bible teaches?
In this thought-provoking and freshly examined account on the second coming of Christ, Alan Kurschner traces the key topics and passages, providing compelling biblical evidence that the church will first encounter the Antichrist's great tribulation before the rapture. Jesus warns us, "Remember, I have told you ahead of time" (Matt. 24:25). And Paul heeds, "Let no one in any way deceive you, for that day will not arrive until the apostasy comes first, and the man of lawlessness Antichrist] is revealed, the son of destruction" (2 Thess. 2:3). Since Jesus and Paul ominously warn us "ahead of time," should this not be an urgent message the church needs to hear? Are we spiritually preparing our hearts to be "overcomers" for what may soon come to pass?
Alan E. Kurschner, PhD, is dedicated to the mission of proclaiming the gospel message of the Christian faith with the hope and promise of the second coming of Jesus.
Dr. Kurschner teaches eschatology from a futurist, premillennial, and prewrath perspective. He is also the host of the popular podcast The Biblical Prophecy Program(TM).
