How much do we know about God? Are we merely supposed to worship God but not know Him? The prophet Isaiah instructs us to, Seek the Lord while He may be found, call upon Him while He is near (55:6). Yet how does God, who cannot be seen with the natural eye, relate to humans? God's chosen way of restoring relationship with His creation is covenant. With the book of Genesis as his starting point, Dick Bernal, founding pastor of Jubilee Christian Center in San Jose, CA, creates a vivid portrait of God's redemptive plan for His people by examining covenant as it unfolds through biblical history and into our lives today. Through nearly 30 years of pastoral ministry, Pastor Bernal has discovered that those who understand covenant possess a strong and trusting faith in God, and he has a passion to instill in believers a resounding affirmation of their rightful position in Christ, the ultimate consummation of God's covenant. In this in depth yet accessible exploration of God's agreements with His people, he offers readers a biblical way to understand God's dealings with humanity, and practical, faith-changing principles for applying this fresh understanding to their lives.

God wants to make intimate relationship with any person. He wants to help him and to touch him. But throughout the Ages, some individuals going astray, want to enjoy life in their own way. So, to please these carnal minded people, authors write about their emotional attraction for women or men, musicians sing about love of men or for women, pornographers show sexual videos, and poets write poetry to explain the madness of men when they love women. Woe! According to the Book of Galatians 5:21, people that do such things shall not inherit the Kingdom of God. Concealing the love of God, they distract man from knowing the compassion of God. But thanks to Apostle John, one of the early Christians and eyewitness of Christ, finding for the meaning of love, tells us that God is love. See 1st John 4:16. Thanks again to Jeremiah the prophet, the mouthpiece of God who lived in the 6th century B.C, for telling us that God is love. See Jeremiah 31:3. The deep prayer of Jesus at the Garden of Gethsemane is one the evidences and monumental witnesses for the compassionate love of God. Here is the story. While Jesus was praying at Gethsemane, and while suffering at Calvary, dropping down His sweat to the ground like drops of Blood, He proves in action that His love for man is beyond explanation. See Luke 22:44 and 23 and Luke 23: 47- 49 respectively. So, let us love our God with our heart, soul, strength, and with our entire mind. See Luke 10:27. Consequently, therefore; when one preaches, teaches and evangelizes, it is good if he talks about God's compassionate love, so that the mind of people would not be distracted from the love of God. God is in the center of everybody. He is at equidistant for everyone. Being in the center, neither He changes His position nor His idea. So, anyone, who wants to make intimate friendship with Him, must come close to Him and show his love for Him. If he does that, God stretches His hands to shake the hands of this individual. To know as many vocabularies as possible that deal about God's love is crucial. Take for example; the word "Vicarious." It is an important word. It means: "Death recognized and approved by God." This is a great compassion. For our salvation, nobody dies, but Jesus. So, there is only one vicarious death, and it is the death of Jesus Christ at Calvary, and because of what Jesus did at Calvary, since time of immemorial, we talk about His vicarious death, resurrection and ascension. Sacrificing His life, getting victory over Satan, removing the wickedness of man and carrying it on His back, Jesus gives us Salvation, righteousness and peace. Hallelujah! According to Matthew 22:36, when people live in accordance to the standards set by God, obey His Commandments, love each other and worship Him with their flesh, soul and spirit, He blesses them. So, to live in accordance with the standards set by our God, let us make inventory of our life. Making inventory of his life, a man of God once said:" I am not for the elephant or for the donkey, but for the Lamb of God. " The decision of this man is great. He decides to serve the Lamb of God. You might as well have your own plan. Observing mine and making inventory of myself, I write this book to help someone make intimate relationship with Jesus. May each of us seek God and carry our Cross to imitate Jesus not by words but by deeds? Molla T. Nigatu

Like Shaking Hands with God details a collaborative journey on the art of writing undertaken by two distinguished writers separated by age, race, upbringing, and education, but sharing common goals and aspirations. Rarely have two writers spoken so candidly about the intersection where the lives they live meet the art they practice. That these two writers happen to be Kurt Vonnegut and Lee Stringer makes this a historic and joyous occasion. The setting was a bookstore in New York City, the date Thursday, October 1, 1998. Before a crowd of several hundred, Vonnegut and Stringer took up the challenge of writing books that would make a difference and the concomitant challenge of living from day to day. As Vonnegut said afterward, ""It was a magical evening."" A book for anyone interested in why the simple act of writing things down can be more important than the amount of memory in our computers.

In the wake of 9/11 much has been written on terrorism. Some have examined the potential relation between religion and terrorism, few, if any, have studied the relation between theology and terrorism. In the latter case, the crucial issue is whether theology provides indirect or direct motivation and justification for terrorist acts. Drawing on his childhood and youth in Northern Ireland, William J. Abraham tackles the latter question head on. He argues that religious themes and practices play a pivotal indirect role in terrorism in Ireland and shows that theology plays a pivotal direct role in forms of Islamist terrorism. Hence current forms of terrorism cannot be fully understood without coming to terms with the crucial place of religion and theology in their origins and persistent existence. Beyond this he explores what ordinary people can do to respond to terrorism, what they should expect from the state by way of protection, how they can resist pious nonsense about forgiveness in respect to terrorism, and how they can face the depth of evil that terrorism represents for all of us. Written with economy and energy, this book is an eye-opener on terrorism; it is also a rigorous theological response to the moral and spiritual challenges posed by one of the great evils of our times.

On the tenth anniversary of the date that UN peacekeepers landed in Rwanda, Random House Canada is proud to publish the unforgettable first-hand account of the genocide by the man who led the UN mission. Digging deep into shattering memories, General Dallaire has written a powerful story of betrayal, naïveté, racism and international politics. His message is simple and undeniable: “Never again.” When Lt-Gen. Roméo Dallaire received the call to serve as force commander of the UN intervention in Rwanda in 1993, he thought he was heading off on a modest and straightforward peacekeeping mission. Thirteen months later he flew home from Africa, broken, disillusioned and suicidal, having witnessed the slaughter of 800,000 Rwandans in only a hundred days. In Shake Hands with the Devil, he takes the reader with him on a return voyage into the hell of Rwanda, vividly recreating the events the international community turned its back on. This book is an unsparing eyewitness account of the failure by humanity to stop the genocide, despite timely warnings. Woven through the story of this disastrous mission is Dallaire’s own journey from confident Cold Warrior, to devastated UN commander, to retired general engaged in a painful struggle to find a measure of peace, reconciliation and hope. This book is General Dallaire’s personal account of his conversion from a man certain of his worth and secure in his assumptions to a man conscious of his own weaknesses and failures and critical of the institutions he’d relied on. It might not sit easily with standard ideas of military leadership, but understanding what happened to General Dallaire and his mission to Rwanda is crucial to understanding the moral minefields our peacekeepers are forced to negotiate when we ask them to step into the world’s dirty wars. Excerpt from Shake Hands with the Devil My story is not a strictly military account nor a clinical, academic study of the breakdown of Rwanda. It is not a simplistic indictment of the many failures of the UN as a force for peace in the world. It is not a story of heroes and villains, although such a work could easily be written. This book is a cri de coeur for the slaughtered thousands, a tribute to the souls hacked apart by machetes because of their supposed difference from those who sought to hang on to power. . . . This book is the account of a few humans who were entrusted with the role of helping others taste the fruits of peace. Instead, we watched as the devil took control of paradise on earth and fed on the blood of the people we were supposed to protect.
