The rule of reciprocity holds true in most areas of our lives--when we receive a blessing, we are more likely to give back. When you plant and sow your seed, if you have the right intent and commitment, you can expect the blessing of a harvest. If you are unsure of how to move forward in your appointed influence, The Power of the Seed will guide you in recognizing your ability to help others, who will then help you in return. Through personal testimony and biblical references, Dr. Eric Holmes reminds us to be patient and unceasing in our journey to do good in the word of God. The journey may not be short or easy, but it's all part of the process--a cycle that begins again and again. Stand firmly in your faith, live by example and spread His message to unlock the magnificent power of the seed.
Have you ever swallowed a seed? If you've eaten a strawberry or a tomato, the answer is, yes! But why didn't a new plant grow inside your stomach? In this book, readers discover what a seed needs to grow into a fruit-bearing plant.
In 1996 Argentina adopted genetically modified (GM) soybeans as a central part of its national development strategy. Today, Argentina is the third largest global grower and exporter of GM crops. Its soybeans—which have been modified to tolerate being sprayed with herbicides—now cover half of the country's arable land and represent a third of its total exports. While soy has brought about modernization and economic growth, it has also created tremendous social and ecological harm: rural displacement, concentration of landownership, food insecurity, deforestation, violence, and the negative health effects of toxic agrochemical exposure. In Seeds of Power Amalia Leguizamón explores why Argentines largely support GM soy despite the widespread damage it creates. She reveals how agribusiness, the state, and their allies in the media and sciences deploy narratives of economic redistribution, scientific expertise, and national identity as a way to elicit compliance among the country’s most vulnerable rural residents. In this way, Leguizamón demonstrates that GM soy operates as a tool of power to obtain consent, to legitimate injustice, and to quell potential dissent in the face of environmental and social violence.
The Seed and the Soil explores the power of the Bible that brings about God’s transforming and liberating purposes, as well as its power as an often oppressively misused text. Characterised by a wide variety of storytelling, this book is accessible to all that read it. What People are saying about the book! Reading Pauline Hoggarth's book, one is aware that everything she writes is deeply rooted in her own life of engagement with Scripture and in her wide experience of the Bible's impact in many different cultural contexts. She is refreshingly open about both the difficulties many people have in engaging with Scripture and the difficulties Scripture itself presents. Richard Bauckham Emeritus Professor of New Testament Studies, University of St Andrews My shelves are full of books about reading the Bible, but Pauline’s new book is outstanding. It is fresh and thoughtful, grounded in personal reality and clearly the fruit of a lifetime of international ministry and friendship, and deep engagement with God’s Word. To those beginning with the Bible, Pauline passes on a wealth of practical insights, and more seasoned readers will be challenged to think more widely and more wisely. Revd Jenny Petersen Faith at QMUL [This] is a more than worthy addition to our bulging library. However, this isn’t a comfortable, intellectually stimulating book about the background to the Bible or some arcane aspect of biblical theology; it is a challenging book about engaging with Scripture . . . If someone were to ask me to recommend books to help them with reading the Bible, I would have no hesitation in suggesting How to Read the Bible for All Its Worth for help in understanding the text of the Bible and The Seed and the Soil: Engaging with the Word of God as a help in letting the Bible get under your skin and transform your thinking and actions. Eddie Arthur Kouya.net Speaking with a depth of pastoral sensitivity and cultural insight, this immensely powerful book is grounded with an understanding of the difficulties encountered by many Christians reading the Bible today. The writer's passion to help others identify and overcome their own challenges includes questions for personal reflection. Amy Roche CMS Mission Partner and Research Student at Durham University
In 1991, an eminent American member of the New World Order secretly declared "The supranatural sovereignty of an intellectual elite and world bankers is surely preferable to the national auto determination practiced in past centuries." Ben Peri has methodically followed the link that exists between this declaration of war on democracy, the rigged American elections of 2000 and 2004, 9/11, orchestrated terror, and the "preventive" wars that followed. The central thesis for the book came as a bolt from the blue from Major General Smedley Butler: "War is a racket." He knows whereof he speaks. He survived two devastating wars as a staff officer in the U. S. Army. He witnessed the real "business" of war with its reckless investors, profiteers, think tanks, propaganda disseminators, and public opinion manipulators. Ben Peri debunks step by step the lies of the U. S. government, the Pentagon, CIA, and FBI about 9/11, the WTC demolition, the false Pentagon attack, fake organized terror, total suppression of our liberties, and the outrageous propaganda about our values, freedom, and democracy. All the while, the mainstream media, according to former chief of staff of The New York Times play "intellectual prostitutes." [presstitutes? - per Mike Rivero] But, a thousand men loaded with lies cannot withstand one man armed with the truth. The "hundred-year war" looks more and more like a "hundred-year extremely rewarding business", at a time when free trade capitalist systems show signs of great collapse. It is a business where the margins are often 100 times more important than the most profitable traditional businesses. While WARBIZ spreads death among totally innocent civilians (over 150,000 so far, including 40,000 kids and babies), as well as U. S. and coalition troops, and depleted uranium (DU), which causes cancer, degenerative diseases, paralysis, and birth deformities. As a consequence of the Gulf War (1991), 50 percent of American soldiers (more than 350,000) suffer from exposure to DU, which has a half-life of 4.5 billion years. Specialists estimate that the uranium contamination in the present Iraq War is 250,000 times the contamination resulting from the atom bomb on Nag

"I encourage anyone who wants to have a better grounding in the biblical, historical, and theological basis for believing in the continuation of the gifts-especially gift of healing-to make this a part of his or her library. This book is not milk; it is meat." —Randy Clark Jesus brought people into direct contact with the power and authority of God. Every healing and miracle revealed the glory of God and the reality of His kingdom. Jesus gave the disciples authority to proclaim the gospel of the kingdom, to heal the sick, and to deliver the oppressed. Receive Your Miracle Now presents a strong argument for the legitimacy of a Christian healing ministry in today's church. By studying key passages of Scripture in both the Old and New Testaments, examining the thread of healing throughout church history, and presenting a theological basis for healing and deliverance ministry, Bob Sawvelle demonstrates that through the healing gifts Jesus is still glorified, the sick are still healed, the oppressed are still freed, and God's kingdom advances in the earth, as it ever has.
Oral Roberts was barely making ends meet when he discovered the three key principles of Seed-Faith in God’s Word. “They have never failed me,” he shares. “When I had no earthly source or person to turn to, when I was alone with nothing but big problems and challenges facing me, these principles showed me God is my Source. They showed me how to use my giving as a seed I was planting, and to expect God to multiply it even if it took a miracle.” The Miracle of Seed-Faith has revolutionized the lives of millions of people. As you read it, let God show you how you can get your needs met through His eternal plan of seedtime and harvest, sowing and reaping, giving and receiving. Man’s economic systems may fail, but God’s plan never does. By getting into the rhythm of Seed-Faith living, you’ll learn that His more-than-enough resources are always available to you.
