Since the beginning of the earth, all of the Lord's prophets have looked with longing toward the end times, when the many promises of the Lord would be fulfilled and the Kingdom of God would finally be established upon the earth. With a larger canon than most religions, members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints have access to a great many doctrines regarding this topic. Yet the words of Isaiah, which were so plain and simple to Nephi, tend to mystify the Latter-day Saints. The words of Ezekiel go largely unread. The dire warnings in 3rd Nephi are casually skimmed over. Why?For one simple reason. The many verses of scripture related to the mysteries of the end times are scattered throughout the Standard Works like pieces of a great jigsaw puzzle. Individually, they are not clearly discernible to the casual reader. Yet when brought together, these puzzle pieces form a picture that is both beautiful and terrifying. The message of the future of the Church and the ushering in of the Church of the Firstborn have been carefully pieced together in this book, creating a single clear narrative of what to expect in the future by examining what has happened in the past. Join the authors in this journey of unraveling the carefully placed clues that the Lord intended for us to find.

The Church of the Firstborn presents a new revelation as to what the church really is. Throughout past history, the dwelling place of God has been presented as a tent, a tabernacle, a temple until it was realized that the dwelling place of God is the body of man. This is where the Church of the Firstborn of the new revelation begins the expansion of consciousness as to what the church is, was, and ever shall be, which is not what anyone might have imagined it to be.

Origen’s On First Principles is a foundational work in the development of Christian thought and doctrine: it is the first attempt in history at a systematic Christian theology. For over a decade it has been out of print with only expensive used copies available; now it is available at an affordable price and in a more accessible format. On First Principles is the most important surviving text written by third-century Church father, Origen. Origen wrote in a time when fundamental doctrines had not yet been fully articulated by the Church, and contributed to the very formation of Christianity. Readers see Origen grappling with the mysteries of salvation and brainstorming how they can be understood. This edition presents G. W. Butterworth’s trusted translation in a new, more readable format, retains the introduction by Henri de Lubac, and includes a new foreword by John C. Cavadini. As St. Gregory of Nazianzus, Doctor of the Church, wrote: “Origen is the stone on which all of us were sharpened.”

This book brings an incredibly fresh perspective unlike any other before it to this topic of the firstborn. It challenges fathers, sons, mothers, and similar authority figures to embrace a long existed yet abandoned concept of the firstborn son that will serve us all effectively. The firstborn son has a covenant relationship with God the father for stability of the family and society (see Numbers 8:16-17, Romans 8:28-30, Colossians 1:15-16). The proper embrace of the institution of the firstborn son is crucial to thoroughly restoring the ill-beating heart of our society to its perfect rhythm. God's perspective is paramount. As opposed to an all-theoretical approach, challenging real life experiences of the author provide measurable results that can be methodically tracked to observe the expected progress when practiced. Key subject matter experts have also provided their approval of this material as you will notice on the book's reviews. Ezechiel "Zeke" Bambolo, Jr. was born in Liberia, West Africa, and came to the United States in 1991. Regardless of social and emotional trials, he became a very successful collegiate athlete and student. Ezechiel is a firstborn son who accepted the challenge of his father and embraced God's core values for this strategic role. He restored his family from utter chaos, destruction, and loss of a civil war after being forced to leave them in the danger of the war. Now married for over twelve years, he is a father of two beautiful children. He has spent over fourteen years in corporate America as an awardwinning consultant. Ezechiel serves as a deacon in his church and has been fully engaged in men's discipleships and accountability groups for over ten years.

With the exception of Christianity, the major religions of the world have a peculiar doctrine in common. Though it goes by many names, the belief in Multiple Mortal Probations is held by most of earth's inhabitants, so why isn't it taught among Christianity? Traces of the doctrine can be found in the Bible, and other precious remnants of it are preserved in biblical apocryphal texts.Was the concept of multiple lives once taught among biblical peoples, but lost through the doctrinal biases of the members of the Second Council of Constantinople? If so, could this be the single potentially most unifying doctrine among all the world religions? Authors of this book explore these and other related questions providing an array of historical sources in this unique narrative.

"Providing practical tools and exercises, counselor Darby Strickland shows how anyone can recognize clues suggesting abuse, identify oppressive behavior, and work with a victim to bring clarity, help, and healing"--

The constitutionality of this document is set forth to be an irrevocable statutory element of proven Christian laws for this perpetually established church until such changes be deemed necessary at the time of the reign of Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Because of the satanic pollution of so many things being made for bodily pleasures to cause Elohim to be grieved and not honored, we therefore will make these defined statutory laws and bylaws for the souls of men, women, and children to be implemented into Christian law to coincide fully with the will of Elohim.
