Large earth catastrophe occurs only after the destruction of Israel

Large earth catastrophe
occurs only after the destruction of Israel
The following Daniel's prophecy was forwarded to me some years ago. The source of the interpretation of this prophecy goes back to the bible.
The oldest prophecy with figures, which can determine the time that could be crucial for the survival of Earth's inhabitants of our times is that of the biblical prophet Daniel. Daniel is more known for his down-written in the Bible interpretation of a dream of Nebuchadnezzar, the miraculous escape from the burning fiery furnace, the mysterious handwriting on the wall in the royal palace, or his account of the deliverance from the lions' den. Daniel's visions, which mainly affect Israel's future, however, rather less well known.
***
Over the past centuries have sought to interpret their great minds. Here are just a Newton, the great physicist and astronomer, is the 17th Century will be called, who discovered the law of gravity in the solar system and beyond dealing with mysticism and astrology to decipher the predictions of Daniel. The existing knowledge of that time went beyond the cycles of teaching, however, an accurate interpretation of the world-wide prophecy of Daniel yet.
Here, if the interpretation of the time of the catastrophe predicted by Daniel destruction in the State of Israel is made ​​to incorporate other parts of the world to become a possible third World War II to expand, which is followed by an earth catastrophe cosmic origins, to understanding be anticipated that world events in large and small cycles occurs, which, above all, the precession [= precession astronomical term for the precession of the vernal equinox.]) Of the Erdachsenkreiselbewegung in solar system is based on (time = 26,784 years).
The great prophecy of Daniel underpinned the arrival of the world turn in our time through cycles with exact figures in terms of years and days, it is also in the sense of contemporary belief in the concept of precession aeon the reverential term "prince" and "anointed" or "Anointed most holy", the beginning of each undergoes a consecration. This is assumed to make comprehensible this prophecy.
Now follows the word according to Daniel's prophecy and its analogous interpretation: In Daniel chapter 9/24 it says: "Seventy (70) weeks are determined upon thy people (Israel) and upon thy holy city (Jerusalem) ..." It is here by weeks of each 36 years after the Babylonian account. It is 36 according to the "universal principle of the cosmos," which had already recognized the Chaldeans, the size of each subdivision of the calculated total of 42 basic steps of the cosmos. She was therefore also a key figure in the zodiac of the apparent solar orbit of 360 degrees reflected.
In Daniel chapter 9/25 then it says: "There is justice, and brought a most holy Gesalbtwerden." Interpreted: There will be a balance and the ritual consecration of the Aquarian Age.
Daniel chapter 9/75, it is this indicative of the time: "Know therefore and understand, from the time that Jerusalem will be rebuilt ... (Cyrus, the Persian king, issued in the years BC, the 537th command to the Jews of the Babylonian captivity, which are 607-537 BC, that lasted 70 years) ... unto the Messiah the Prince, there will be 7 weeks ... (that's up to the beginning of the Piscean Age the equivalent of 7 x 36 = 252 years of the remaining ram age) ... and yet another 62 weeks ... (the total duration of the Piscean age of 62 x 36 = 2232 years) is, ... then the Walls (Israel be rebuilt) as well in time of distress. "This is the cycle-based prediction that the end of the Piscean Age, the Jewish state, as the loud proclamation of 14th May 1948 happened in Tel Aviv already rebuilt, whereby the dispersion of the people of Israel is approaching its end.
Daniel chapter 9/26 it is then continued: "And after the 62 weeks, the 'anointed one' (the Age of Pisces) have come to an end and be no more and the people of the ruler will come and the city and the sanctuary (Jerusalem and to destroy the temple), it will come to an end, like a flood, and by the end of the dispute will remain desolate. "
This is to be destroyed after the founding of Israel on 14 May 1948, the remains are laid waste by the end of general war. The people of the ruler from the north, which would cause the destruction is, in Daniel chapter 11, verses 40-45 a great power of the North (Russia), in its wake are Libyans and Ethiopians who come to Israel and Egypt, but there finally found their destruction will be.
Descriptions are given of the circumstances of the time in which it comes to this destruction, for in Daniel chapter 9/27 says: "There are many, but by the covenant (alliance with the major powers) will be strengthened for a week .. . (ie the 70th week, 36 years) ... and within this week the sacrifice and oblation cease ... (by which is meant the temple service in time of peace, which will cease with the destruction of Jerusalem and its temple then) .. . and in the wings ... (the four sacred animals of the ark of the temple) ... the abomination of desolation standing until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate yet. "
The global earth catastrophe of cosmic origin thus occurs only after having fallen before the destruction of Israel.
Now, if the first half of this prophecy is closely received, concerning the creation of Israel at the present time, it will almost certainly also with the 2nd Part of the prophecy, which is about the destruction of Jerusalem and of the subsequent earth catastrophe of cosmic origin, at the end of the 70th Holy Week of 36 years will occur 1948-1984, to be fulfilled.
Note: This does not agree the times.
To complement the prophecy, which indicates the exact date of the earth catastrophe in connection with the destruction of Jerusalem, Daniel was still known as Section 12/11, where detaillierend emphasized: "And from the time when the daily sacrifice is abolished and the abomination The devastation is done, it still 1290 days. Blessed is he who waits and cometh to the (experienced) 1355 days. "These are 3 ˝ years and 12 days from the date of the destruction of Jerusalem, where an abomination of desolation is done until the arrival of the earth catastrophe of cosmic origin. So clearly 1290 days after the destruction of Jerusalem, the latter is to be expected.
In Daniel chapter 12/4-7 is once again drawn attention to a circumstance specified time of arrival of these events. It says: "If the dispersion of the people of Israel comes to an end is to be done, such" The dispersion of the people of Israel on earth since the destruction of Jerusalem by the Romans (AD 70) has certainly come to an end in 1948 found. Because the Jews in the world ever since his home-awaited national government has become, so that everyone return Jews to the "promised land" of them.
Daniel chapter 12/13 is now called: "But you, Daniel, conceal these words and seal up the font on the last time. As many will come out and find a lot of sense and reason in it! And the wicked shall not be careful, but the wise shall consider it to be! "
Seals the Daniel's prophecy was so far that the key was found for cycles doctrine of antiquity until now and godless in the sense Daniels is certainly today's intellectual-sterile agnostic who has no sense of the marriage Risch irrational and prophecy as compared baseless delusion and Urdummheit to the wind, as it was also before the deluge of Noah's day, where people began to take notice only when they were already engulfed by the flood heranwälzenden.
That the earth catastrophe directly under the 3rd World War II by the dropping of a comet, seasonal seen, was triggered in the winter is evident from the Bible prophecy of Zechariah chapter 14/6-7 and 15, which states: "At the same time will be no light, but cold and frost neither day nor night, and at the evening there will be bright light. "This points to phenomena caused by air pollution by dust particles of volcanic origin. In Zechariah it says then: "And then will come the scourge of horses, mules, camels and beasts of all kinds, this is the selfsame army there, just as people are afflicted."
It can be a side effect of chemical weapons, his other hand, the consequences of the falling comets that cause earthquakes and tsunamis and cause toxic gases acting by shortness of breath, palpitations, and sudden death. Losing by a 3-day risk the lives, if they would not stay in well-sealed rooms, talk a lot older and more recent prophecies!
For example, does befall died in 1969, Padre Pio, the great earth catastrophe on a cold winter night just before midnight. It begins with hurricanes of fire flows from the clouds as with continued thunder and earthquakes.
The Sybille of Prague (17th century) speaks of the same disaster that will befall their city on the day of Veronique (calendar-February 4) at 10 clock at night. Who then would leave the living room, drop dead.
We act so as a precaution and for the purposes of the Prophet, if we are His cautionary predictions to heart and find yourself without being in fear, even now, while it's still not too late to make arrangements to offer us in the X-hour security to life and limb assets, namely, for good or sealable residential basements precaution to wear! Pets are not exempt from this provision!
Furthermore, reports of the visions of Father handed Hepidan from the monastery of St. Gallen in the year 1084, which is also the third World War I predict, in which the country between the Elbe and the Rhine, Danube and North Sea battle field, but where is the beat strong hostile power from the East devastating. The great dying that one third of people will gather there will be end with the appearance of the comet in the constellation of the northern crown.
Father Hepidan describes it literally, as it was the genius of the characters shown in the starry sky, which will announce those days: "Look up," said the spirit of "Know the constellation of the heavenly crown of your ward there at noon vertices.. In this star crown jewel will be a new set and a star shine brightly shining where you are now behold the blue of space.
If this star will appear as well-shining fire sign, then the days are numbered for many people, like the days of harvest, when the reaper is sharpening the sickle. After these days of fighting, battles and death is but the human race flourish more glorious than ever before. The sun, which warms and enlightens the world from the south should be moved to the north (Erdachsenverschiebung). And from the regions of horror and the night will come a light, like you never seen before. For reasons of Germania, a current is produced sources, which flooded the whole world. "
According to the prophecy of the monk Hilarion Monastery of Jasna Gora in Poland in the 17th Century come the bloody events of the rise of the great comet that has been shown 1681 (Halley's comet with a period of 76.3 years), bringing with them is the great misfortune. (This comet appeared at the turn of 1985/86.) Is up to the year 1981, after Hilarion peace and then the Eastern Power, the country between the Mediterranean and the Nordic sea with a vast army coat. But the bear between the Rhine and the North Sea will beat the intruders. This will happen in the Seven Mountains in Westphalia. The explanation is, however, comes only after this bloody war without further bloodshed and cruelty, and the victory will come from the enlightened people that dwells in the midst of Europe: from the North Sea and the Alps, such as borders to the west of France and eastward to the peoples of Pannonia . After a Westphalian prophecy flooded the Eastern Power to the West in the summer of the year, preceded by a very mild winter so that the cattle in the pasture is already at Easter in the tall grass.
Note: The Halley's Comet was last visible in 1986. One must be held. It most prophecies and visions agree with their timelines do not match. Consider also the different calendars, which have partly conflicting chronologies.

Women of the bible is divided into two sections:
"the book of names" and "the book of stories. "
"the book of names" opens the book and contains
over 400 entries. It is a biographical
dictionary and thesaurus of sorts, listing each
woman - whether named, unnamed, or allegorical -
along with a short description of her life,
alternate spellings, biblical citations where
her story can be found and cross references to
other dictionary entries. It also points out
related entries in the "book of stories. " this
single, alphabetical dictionary is well
researched, easy to follow, and overflowing with
answers to your each and every question. "the
book of stories" makes up the second half of the
book and takes quite a different tone than that
of the dictionary. Here, retold in rich detail,
are the stories of fifty-six very important
women - women whose lives were changed by crisis
and challenge; women who learned, shared, or
shunned faith in the lord. Many of these
stories, when read in the bible, provide only a
bare-bones structure that leaves the reader
wondering about the woman's character and
choices. What prompted her actions? how heavy
was the influence of her culture? in "the book
of stories," the women are fleshed out and given
words and thoughts and ideas to share with the
reader. Their stories are true to the original
texts, but are infused with life and emotion.
They are written in such a way to not only
retell the story, but to humanize their
characters and provide a basis for moral
instruction. You can shout with joy as elizabeth
is granted her longed for child, weep with
sorrow as eve remembers the death of abel, feel
the bond of kinship when ruth refuses to leave
naomi, and experience the piercing sword of
revenge as salome dances for the head of john
the baptizer. They're all here, all real women
and all willing to pay whatever price asked to
gain their heart's desire. Their struggles,
successes and failures still resonate within us
today.

Her place in christian the- ology has been as
important as her place as "mother of us all,"
and yet, strangely enough, her name is mentioned
in the whole bible but four times - twice in the
old testament and twice in the new. This is not,
however, the only instance in which the
importance of a term in historical theology has
been out of all pro- portion with its prominence
in the bible. The great doctrine of the trinity
is a remarkable case in point it has played a
leading part in historical theology, but in the
bible there is no mention of it whatsoever,
whether or not, as some think, there are
statements in which it exists potentially, and
from which it can be log- ically inferred. The
careful reader will notice that there are 3
women of the bible in genesis two very different
accounts of wom- an's first appearance on the
creative scene; the first in chap, i. They
afford one of the happiest illustra- tions of
that theory of the pentateuch's composite
character which was first broached by astruc, a
french physician, midway of the last century. It
has been fiercely contested, but its acceptance
is now one of the commonplaces in which all
biblical scholars are agreed. As hebrew docu-
ments both of these stories were doubtless of
late (and perhaps foreign) origin. Nothing could
be further from the truth than to suppose that
the bible was written in its present order -
first genesis, then exodus, and so on. Large
por- tions of the pentateuch were written during
or after the exile, and it 'did not reach its
present form until the alexandrian period, after
330 b. That the first account, that of the
elohist, so called, is of a loftier strain than
that of the yah- wehist, is universally agreed.
No part of the bible is more frankly
anthropomorphic than the latter and the next
following chapter, which re- cites the story of
the fall. The god yahweh 4 9 * eve walks in the
garden in the cool of the day, avoid- ing the
uncomfortable heat; he brings the ani- mals to
adam to be named, and discovers that there is
none among them that will make a good helpmeet
for him; when. Adam hides himself yahweh cannot
at first tell where he is; he cross-questions
him about the fatal tree; he is afraid that he
will eat of the tree of life and so live
forever, and, unable (apparently) to destroy the
virtue of the tree, he drives adam and eve out
of the garden and sets cherubim with flam- ing
swords to prevent their coming back. All this is
charmingly naive, but it does not attain to the
dignity of the first account of the creation.
There the word of god creates the man and woman
at once in his own image, while in the second
account the man is made from the wet dust of the
ground and the woman from a bone of his body.
http://www.squidoo.com/bibleandinfertility Women
of the bible is that god is part of this story,
as difficult as the journey may be. It may be a
long journey or a short one, perhaps with many
twists and turns, but we know that god walks
with us and waits with us in our pain.

Being abram's wife (see abram's wife), there are
times when she exemplifies the best qualities of
faithfulness and humility, and other times where
she comes off as downright mean or defiant. We
get a little hint that she was something of a
prima donna, or in other words a spoiled brat.
After all, her original name (sarai) means “my
princess” and she is frequently described as
stunningly attractive, gaining her many
privileges. The funny thing is that the story of
sarah doesn't begin until she's already 65. A
pharaoh even tries to take her as his wife,
despite her many years. Her story begins in
genesis 12, with her and her husband's original
names: sarai and abram. Introductionname the one
thing you desire the most in life. Now imagine
that it was confirmed that it was impossible for
you (such as, if you wanted to be professional
athlete, imagine you lose the functions of your
legs or arms). How do you think you would deal
with this? this is how it was for sarai. Her
greatest desire is stated in the first verses
where she appears, in genesis 11:29-30. She
wanted so much to have children, but she was
physically unable to conceive. What command was
given to sarai's husband in v1? what destiny
awaited them? what positive and negative
feelings might be going through sarai?the
journey to canaansee genesis 12:12. Abram was
called by god to go to canaan—a land that god
promised to give abram's descendants. As he and
sarai enter egypt on their way to canaan (the
land which god promised to give their

FREE Waterproof Bible!

After a one-week hiatus, we are back with
another edition of Free Stuff Fridays. This
week’s sponsor is Bardin & Marsee Publishing and
the prize they are offering is a mite unusual.
They have offered up six copies of The
Waterproof Bible. Now this is the kind of
product that might lead you to immediately roll
your eyes; but hang on for a moment. The
Waterproof Bible is simply a Bible that is,
well, waterproof. Available in the NIV and KJV,
it is regular-sized Bible but one that you can
take with you anywhere. The pages are very
difficult to tear and, as you’d expect, you can
drop it in the ocean and it will be just fine.
The copy they sent to me shipped already-wet
just to prove that this Bible truly is not going
to get soggy. m-waterproof.jpg Here is Bobby
Bardin’s story of how he came to see the need
for a waterproof Bible:  As a believer in Christ
and one that has always loved to be in God’s
creation exposed to the elements, I have often
desired to have my Bible by my side for reading
here and there. My exploring has led me to
mountain tops, river banks, sandy beaches, misty
valleys, and hot springs, and has caused me to
become soaked to the core while backpacking or
paddling. I hate to admit that my Bible has not
made it with me on many of these occasions for
the sake of protecting it and because I don’t
trust a plastic bag not to puncture. Michael and
I have been talking about how awesome it would
be to have a waterproof Bible for many years
now, and we have finally decided to produce it
ourselves. Now we can put an end to all the
worrying that we have done in the past about our
Bibles and take God’s Word wherever our
adventures lead.  To make this happen, Michael,
Anna (my wife), and I have formed Bardin &
Marsee Publishing, LLC to produce the world’s
first waterproof, rugged, and tear resistant
Bibles. We hope that you find heaps of enjoyment
reading God’s Word in all weather environments.
Bardin & Marsee have kindly offered up six
copies of the NIV Waterproof Bible for this
giveaway so there will be, of course, six
winners. Rules: You may only enter the draw
once. Simply fill out your name and email
address to enter the draw. As soon as the
winners have been chosen, all names and
addresses will be immediately and permanently
erased. Winners will be notified by email. The
giveaway closes Saturday at noon.

King Herod Tomb Search


Shielding my eyes from the glare of the
morning sun, I look toward the horizon
and the small mountain that is my
destination: Herodium, site of the
fortified palace of King Herod the
Great.

I'm about seven miles south of
Jerusalem, not far from the birthplace
of the biblical prophet Amos, who
declared: "Let justice stream forth like
water." Herod's reign over Judea from 37
to 4 B.C. is not remembered for justice
but for its indiscriminate cruelty.

His
most notorious act was the murder of all
male infants in Bethlehem to prevent the
fulfillment of a prophecy heralding the
birth of the Messiah. There is no record
of the decree other than the Gospel of
Matthew
, and biblical scholars debate
whether it actually took place, but the
story is in keeping with a man who
arranged the murders of, among others,
three of his own sons and a beloved
wife. Long an object of scholarly as
well as popular fascination, Herodium,
also called Herodion, was first
positively identified in 1838 by the
American scholar Edward Robinson, who
had a knack for locating biblical
landmarks. After scaling the mountain
and comparing his observations with
those of the first century Jewish-Roman
historian Flavius Josephus, Robinson
concluded that "all these
particulars...leave scarcely a doubt,
that this was Herodium, where the
[Judean] tyrant sought his last repose."
Robinson's observation was confirmed
later that century by Conrad Schick, the
famous German architect and
archaeologist who conducted extensive
surveys of Jerusalem and its nearby
sites. But where precisely was the king
entombed? At the summit of Herodium? At
the base? Inside the mountain itself?
Josephus didn't say. By the late 1800s,
Herod's tomb had become one of biblical
archaeology's most sought-after prizes.
And for more than a century
archaeologists scoured the site.
Finally, in 2007, Ehud Netzer of Hebrew
University announced that after 35 years
of archaeological work he had found
Herod's resting place. The news made
headlines worldwide—"A New Discovery May
Solve the Mystery of the Bible's
Bloodiest Tyrant," trumpeted the London
Daily Mail. "In terms of size, quality
of decoration and prominence of its
position, it's hard to reach any other
conclusion," says Jodi Magness, an
archaeologist in the Department of
Religious Studies at the University of
North Carolina at Chapel Hill who has
excavated at other sites where Herod
oversaw construction projects.

Ken
Holum, a University of Maryland
archaeologist and historian who served
as a curator for the traveling
Smithsonian exhibition "King Herod's
Dream," cautions that "it is always wise
to be less than certain when there is no
identifying inscription or other
explicit identification." But he says he
personally believes Netzer has indeed
discovered Herod's tomb. Netzer, 75, is
one of Israel's best-known
archaeologists and a renowned authority
on Herod. Trained as an architect, he
worked as an assistant to the
archaeologist Yigael Yadin, who from
1963 to 1965 led an exhaustive dig at
Masada, the fortified plateau near the
Dead Sea where Herod built two palaces.
In 1976, Netzer led a team that
discovered the site of one of Herod's
infamous misdeeds: the murder of his
young brother-in-law, Aristobulus, whom
Herod ordered to be drowned in a pool at
his winter palace complex near Jericho.
Yet the discovery of Herod's tomb would
be Netzer's most celebrated find. And as
is often the case with such discoveries,
Netzer found it where, for years, he
least expected it. Arriving at Herodium,
which is not only an active
archaeological site but also, since the
late 1960s, a national park, I drive
partway up the mountain to the parking
lot where I will meet Netzer.

In the
early 1980s, before the first intifada
turned the West Bank into a conflict
zone, Herodium drew some 250,000 people
per year. For the moment I'm the sole
visitor.

At a kiosk I buy a ticket that
lets me ascend on foot to the summit. At
the base of the mountain the remains of
a royal complex, known as Lower
Herodium, sprawl across nearly 40 acres.
Gone are the homes, gardens and stables;
the most recognizable structure is an
immense pool, 220 by 150 feet, which is
graced with a center island. A narrow
trail hugging the hillside leads me to
an opening in the slope, where I enter
an enormous cistern now part of a route
to the summit, more than 300 feet above
the surrounding countryside.

The air
inside is pleasantly cool, and the walls
are smooth and dry, with patches of
original plaster. I follow a network of
tunnels dug during the second Jewish
revolt against the Romans in A.D. 135
and enter another, smaller cistern.
Daylight pours in. I climb a steep
staircase and emerge at the summit, in
the middle of the palace courtyard. The
palace fortress once reached close to
100 feet high and was surrounded by
double concentric walls accented by four
cardinal point towers. Besides living
quarters, the upper palace had a
triclinium (a Greco-Roman-style formal
dining room lined on three sides by a
couch) and a bathhouse that features a
domed, hewn-stone ceiling with an oculus
(round opening). It's strange to find
such a perfectly preserved structure
amid the ancient ruins, and it leaves me
with an eerie sense of standing both in
the past and the present.

Who are Women of the Bible?


Women of the bible is a great study book for sunday school or women's bible classes. Published on january 15, 2007 by blove.




Women of the bible is a portrait gallery and reference library of over 3,400 named biblical characters. Herbert lockyer, this book mines the wealth of scripture to give you characters you. Can learn from, teachings you can apply, and promises you can stand on. All the menthis monumental book puts comprehensive information on the men of the bible at your fingertips, including a list of major characters.

And it explores the attributes of jesus, god's model for biblical manhood. All the womenfrom abi to zipporah, discover how the lives and character of different biblical women, named and unnamed, mirror the situations of women today. More than 400 profiles offer fascinating insights into the bible's multidimensional women. Wives, mothers, single women, prophetesses, queens, leaders, villainesses, and heroines--all are portrayed in rich, thought-provoking detail.



Herbert lockyer, this book mines the wealth of scripture to give you characters you can learn from, teachings you can apply, and promises you can stand on. This monumental book puts comprehensive information on the men of the bible at your fingertips, including a list of major characters. From abi to zipporah, discover how the lives and character of different biblical women, named and unnamed, mirror the situations of women today. Wives, mothers, single women, prophetesses, queens, leaders, villainesses, and heroines?all are portrayed in rich, thought-provoking detail.


Women of the bible is very highly recommended for personal, ecclesiastical, academic, and community library biblical studies reference collections. [a] well-written and interesting introduction to many biblical characters in a way that is appealing both to students and to a general interested audience, precisely the audience to which it is aimed. Here is a helpful resource for students and general readers seeking information on 100 biblical characters and their cultural significance in western civilization. The guide covers the entire span of biblical history from the creation of adam to the apocalyptic visions of the end of times.


Women of the bible is divided into two sections: "the book of names" and "the book of stories. " "the book of names" opens the book and contains over 400 entries. It is a biographical dictionary and thesaurus of sorts, listing each woman - whether named, unnamed, or allegorical - along with a short description of her life, alternate spellings, biblical citations where her story can be found and cross references to other dictionary entries. It also points out related entries in the "book of stories. " this single, alphabetical dictionary is well researched, easy to follow, and overflowing with answers to your each and every question. "the book of stories" makes up the second half of the book and takes quite a different tone than that of the dictionary. Here, retold in rich detail, are the stories of fifty-six very important women - women whose lives were changed by crisis and challenge; women who learned, shared, or shunned faith in the lord. Many of these stories, when read in the bible, provide only a bare-bones structure that leaves the reader wondering about the woman's character and choices. What prompted her actions? how heavy was the influence of her culture? in "the book of stories," the women are fleshed out and given words and thoughts and ideas to share with the reader. Their stories are true to the original texts, but are infused with life and emotion. They are written in such a way to not only retell the story, but to humanize their characters and provide a basis for moral instruction. You can shout with joy as elizabeth is granted her longed for child, weep with sorrow as eve remembers the death of abel, feel the bond of kinship when ruth refuses to leave naomi, and experience the piercing sword of revenge as salome dances for the head of john the baptizer. They're all here, all real women and all willing to pay whatever price asked to gain their heart's desire. Their struggles, successes and failures still resonate within us today.




Women of the bible is a dramatic, one-woman presentation that spans the lives of women across the old and new testaments. You'll find yourself inspired by its universal message of faith.


Women of the bible is a free christian screensaver










Women of the bible is a series of lessons that explores the lives of many different women in the bible. In these lessons you will discover how god worked in the lives of these women to make them victorious over their circumstances and how he will do the same for you. This book is written to encourage, uplift and empower women in their christian journey.
