In 1665-1666 the messianic movement of Sabbatai Zevi (also written as Shabbetai Zevi, Shabbetai Tzvi, Shabtai Sevi, etc.) spread like wildfire throughout the Jewish communities of the Mediterranean and northern and western Europe. Some communities were so caught up in the frenzy that they changed their liturgy to reflect what they believed to be in the impending declaration of the messianic age.

Qu'est ce que l'inquisition ? L'histoire de l'inquisition – dans laquelle le Midi de la France tient une large place – a longtemps été l'objet d'opinions contradictoires. On a pu croire qu'elle avait sauvé la chrétienté et la société occidentale de la subversion religieuse et sociale ; on a pu dire qu'elle avait écrasé une religion évangélique par l'oppression, la terreur et les bûchers. Cet enregistrement tente d'approcher au plus près les réalités médiévales sans a priori ou complaisance et de dresser le tableau de l'inquisition en Languedoc au temps où elle consacre tous ses efforts à l'éradication du catharisme. Inquisition et hérésie.

When World War II began, seventeen-year-old Letty from a rigid Orthodox Jewish family in Belgium is trapped in a resort nestled in the French Pyrenees with her mother and two sisters. Her oldest sister disowns the family to save herself as her mother’s distress turns into violent panic attacks.

Now her family’s fate, whether triumph or catastrophe, hinges on Letty’s escape plan.

In the single month of September 1993, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints excommunicated or disciplined six of its members. These six individuals–some of them intellectuals, some activists, and some both–were soon dubbed the “September Six.” In The September Six and the Struggle for the Soul of Mormonism, Sara M. Patterson challenges listeners to think more deeply about the events of that month and the era in which they unfolded.

In today's world, we are surrounded by various forms of visual media, such as photo albums, pictures, and videos capturing memories of our loved ones, including children, grandchildren, and friends, that we love to share with others. Similarly, if my beloved heavenly Father had left a photo of His son, Jesus, and His suffering, whom He loved, I would want to see and know everything about it and share it with others.

Malleus is Latin for “hammer,” Maleficarum is Latin for “of witches.” Thus, the title tells you everything that is to come. Heinrich Kramer is attempting to forge a hammer made of paper and ink, and to bring it down upon the heads of those he believes to be practising witchcraft. Heinrich was a Dominican Inquisitor traipsing around Germany in the 1480s, hunting for witches.

D.L. Moody, the big, fun-loving, bearded, garden-tending revivalist from Northfield, Massachusetts was a man apart. In a time when it seemed like Christianity was almost stagnating in many ways across the United States and Europe, D.L. Moody was able to draw in crowds of tens of thousands.

For millennia, people considered dragons to be real, and the vivid lore of dragons has touched societies from Central America to Europe, and from Egypt to China. The popularity of dragons can easily be assessed by the number of motion pictures that include them as an integral part of their narrative, from the friendly dragons of children’s cartoons to the monsters being bred underground to unleash their horrors on humanity.

The Renaissance and Reformation were exciting times of learning and discovery – they pushed the boundaries of accepted thought. The repercussions of this, however, were that they left in their wake a period of universal uncertainty. The centuries-old status quo had been turned on its head. Nothing was stable anymore. Conflict ensued. The fourth volume of 2,000 Years of Christ's Power spans from the 16th to the 18th century.

The commonly held view of Albert Einstein is of an eccentric genius for whom the pursuit of science was everything. But in actuality, the brilliant innovator whose Theory of Relativity forever reshaped our understanding of time was a man of his times, always politically engaged and driven by strong moral principles. An avowed pacifist, Einstein’s mistrust of authority and outspoken social and scientific views earned him death threats from Nazi sympathizers in the years preceding World War II.

On découvre ici ce que furent son inspiration, ses motivations, ses 'bonhommes' et on la comprend alors très clairement dans le contexte plus vaste de cette France méridionale des XIIe et XIIIe siècles qui a vu se diriger contre elle la croisade intérieure et l'Inquisition.

Sahih Al Bukhari is a collection of sayings and deeds of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), also known as the sunnah. The reports of the Prophet's sayings and deeds are called ahadith. Bukhari lived a couple of centuries after the Prophet's death and worked extremely hard to collect his ahadith. Each report in his collection was checked for compatibility with the Qur'an, and the veracity of the chain of reporters had to be painstakingly established.

C T.’S LIFE stands as some rugged Gibraltar — a sign to all succeeding generations that it is worthwhile to lose all this world can offer and stake everything on the world to come. His life will be an eternal rebuke to easy-going Christianity. He has demonstrated what it means to follow Christ without counting the cost and without looking back. His simple life alone has affected missionary history, and through it C. T. forwarded evangelization to an extent that we cannot properly gauge.

The Scofield Reference Bible was the product of Dispensationalism, which offered a new way of reading the Bible, one that focused attention squarely on the end-times. That scripture would later become a core text of America's white Christian nationalism. In The Americanization of the Apocalypse Donald Harman Akenson examines the creation and spread of Dispensationalism.

Al-Balki explains symptoms and treatments giving advice on preventive measures and how to return the body and soul to their natural healthy state. In doing so he displays a keen understanding of the human condition and the medical nature of the human emotional state. An astonishing feat given that many of the conditions he discusses were left largely unknown and untreated for centuries before being clinically defined as such, only as relatively recently as the 20th century.
