Books on Christianity

• Understanding The Difference Between The Spirit & The Soul by Everest John Alexander
  
  This eBook gives a very distinct explanation and definition of what the spirit is, it’s purpose and function and what the soul is, it’s purpose and function. It describes the spirit and the soul in meticulous detail, clearly showing how they resemble and how they differ from each other. It sheds abundant light and removes all the mystery so that anyone can easily appreciate what the spirit is and how it works and what the soul is and how it works.


• Understanding The 7 Attributes of Salvation by Everest John Alexander
  
  Some may say that there are more than just 7 Attributes of Salvation and I won’t argue with that. This ebook, however, clearly explains and defines what I consider to be the major Attributes of Salvation i.e. Redemption - Remission - Justification - Regeneration - Reconciliation - Sanctification - Glorification. I’ve included special notes on Adoption and Substitution in this book but because of its complexity I’ve devoted a entire book to the Doctrine of Election.


• Understanding The Significance of Election by Everest John Alexander
  
  This Ebook gives a simple yet detailed explanation of what the Doctrine of Election is and the important part it plays in salvation. It addresses the issue of, “Once saved… Always saved” and answers, “Can a Christian lose his or her salvation?” For a more in-depth study of the subject there’s also a special chart and a link at the end of the book to a site discussing the ordering of the soteriological elements of God’s Eternal Decrees with particular emphasis on the difference between supralapsarianism and infralapsarianism. This is, of course, for the more serious Bible student. The book itself is simple to read and quite easy to understand.

Personal Development

• The Love for Manufactured Things by Xavier Molina
  
  “That’s a poem’s book but it is not a sweet or romantical collection of nice poems, it’s about real problems of current people. For example one poem called ‘Without noise’ is based on a interview I saw on tv made to an USA soldier in Irak, ‘Colors’ is about religion and crime, ‘Reproaches’ deals with couples’ lack of understanding and so on. I know poetry is not a very interesting thing for readers but anyway I should try.”


• Success Marking Scheme by Anthony Samuel
  
  People have always been struggling in pursuit of success for ages. Success has always tried it’s best to evade them and they have always been downcast. It would not be the same if people knew the secret behind every success. If you knew the ingredients of your favorite soft drink, you would make it at home. Imagine serving a crowd of visitors in your home with your own produced soft drink tasting as good as that you normally buy from the shops. That could be a very good feeling. The truth is, this is very possible. But the ingredients are a secret to the manufacturers. However that still does not make it an impossibility. If you got the ingredients and followed the recipe, am sure you will make the exact same soft drink.

• No More Shyness
  Shyness is an ever-increasing problem and fostered, many feel, by the technology available nowadays. Online dating, email, and virtual anonymity are realities in today’s world. For most of us, these are merely conveniences; but for many, these are simply ways to avoid directly connecting to others. They are literally in hiding from the world. Reaching out and touching someone is terrifying to the seriously shy and socially phobic. There’s much less awkwardness when dealing with others via the internet. No one would see them or hear them; they feel safe.

• Four Leaf Clovers
  
  This book was written by Roberta MacDonald, senior vice president of marketing for Cabot Creamery Cooperative on the simple joy and pleasure of searching for four-leaf clovers. Written in 1988, reprinted in 2003 and again in 2007, MacDonald’s book is a lighthearted yet techinical look at how to search for four-leaf clovers. More importantly, it’s a guide to introspection and contemplation — two things seemingly lacking today due to life’s everyday demands and distractions. Although ostensibly about how to search for four-leaf clovers, this guide quietly offers subtle instruction in another search: how to relax and sample what’s really meaningful in life. Roberta MacDonald has written a pleasantly whimsical tract about the art of contemplation. Her advice is specific, and its implications are as much philosophical as horticultural.
