DOWNLOAD EBOOKIn this 21st century church, it is valuably important that we as believers in Jesus Christ are to understand any gift given or presented to us. Because the gift of prophecy is in such high demand, we must have a complete understanding of the gift and the office. It is increasingly important that as a prophet, the gift and the giver (God) of the gift are represented correctly. It is also important for those who are laity to understand the designed function of the gift. To operate as a novice is dangerous. Also, to attempt to operate and not be called is erroneous, simply life- damaging and life-threatening. If you are called to the office/mantle of a prophet, you MUST understand the gift. You must live it and not just operate in it. At the completion of this manual, you will have a great understanding of prophecy, the prophetic and the mantle of a prophet. The designated functionary purpose is to present the rules and boundaries or what is acceptable and to help you discern when flesh is on parade. The Holy Bible records in Proverbs 4:7, "Wisdom is the principle thing, therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting, get understanding." So, allow this manual to help to enlighten you as we open up and unveil "The Mantle Of A Prophet."

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis book provides an introduction to current trends in the study of the biblical prophets. It surveys the growing volume of work that has been on the redactional analysis of individual books and represents the first attempt to bring together these different strands of redaction criticism and to evaluate the effect they have had on our appreciation of the prophetical books as a distinct genre. The opening chapter deals with the methodology of redaction criticism as applicable to the prophetical books. The author then looks at the redactional history of each of the individual books in turn. The closing chapters consider the implications this approach has for our appreciation of these books and the aims of the writers who created them. In particular, the author draws attention to the literary nature of the image of The Prophet conveyed in the books about prophets.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe life and legacy of one of Mohammad’s closest confidants and Islam’s patron saint: Ali ibn Abi Talib Ali ibn Abi Talib is arguably the single most important spiritual and intellectual authority in Islam after prophet Mohammad. Through his teachings and leadership as fourth caliph, Ali nourished Islam. But Muslims are divided on whether he was supposed to be Mohammad’s political successor—and he continues to be a polarizing figure in Islamic history. Hassan Abbas provides a nuanced, compelling portrait of this towering yet divisive figure and the origins of sectarian division within Islam. Abbas reveals how, after Mohammad, Ali assumed the spiritual mantle of Islam to spearhead the movement that the prophet had led. While Ali’s teachings about wisdom, justice, and selflessness continue to be cherished by both Shia and Sunni Muslims, his pluralist ideas have been buried under sectarian agendas and power politics. Today, Abbas argues, Ali’s legacy and message stands against that of ISIS, Al-Qaeda, and Taliban.

In addition, each verse is followed by lines from other poets - classical and modern, and from many parts of the world - echoing and amplifying its theme, encouraging the reader to reflect on its meanings more fully."

DOWNLOAD EBOOKWhen Larry Mullins was tasked with developing a security program to protect the President of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, he was instructed to tell no one except his wife. Decades later, when President Gordon B. Hinckley’s televised funeral brought the role of prophets’ security detail into the public eye, Larry knew the time had finally come to divulge his remarkable insights. In Bodyguard to the Prophet, Larry reveals the unique understanding he gained while serving alongside the beloved prophet Spencer W. Kimball. You’ll learn ?? The logistics: What it takes to protect the President of the Church. ?? The threats: Why it was necessary to protect the “prophet of peace.” ?? The stories: What it was like to get help teaching Sunday School lessons from a prophet, how Sister Kimball felt about living with a security detail, and what life is like behind the scenes of Church leadership. Bodyguard to the Prophet not only offers a view of the prophet from a whole new perspective, it also reminds us that with enough faith and diligence, we can each serve as a usable tool in the Lord’s hand.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKQASIDAH BURDAH THE THREE POEMS OF THE PROPHET'S MANTLE Translations & Introduction by Paul Smith Ka'b ibn Zuhair (died 7th century A.D.) was a famous poet who at first opposed Prophet Muhammad. Finally, he secretly went to Medina and approached the Prophet to ask if one who repented and embraced the faith would be forgiven. Mohammed answered yes and the poet asked, "Even Ka'b ibn Zuhair?" When he affirmed this, Ka'b revealed his identity and read a poem, his Banat Suad (of 55 couplets), which would become his most famous poem. As a reward Prophet Mohammed took off his mantle (cloak) and put it on Ka'b's shoulders. The second for Mohammed was composed by the eminent Sufi, Imam al-Busiri (1210-1297). The poem (161 couplets) is famous mainly in the Sunni Muslim world. It is entirely in praise of Prophet Mohammed, who is said to have cured the poet of paralysis by appearing to him in a dream and wrapping him in a mantle. The third poet of the 'Mantle' was Ahmed Shawqi (1869 - 1932) the great Arabic Poet-Laureate, an Egyptian poet and dramatist who pioneered the modern Egyptian literary movement, introducing poetic epics to the Arabic literary tradition. His 'Mantle' qasida is 190 couplets. The correct rhyme-structure has been kept and the meaning of these beautiful, powerful, spiritual poems.
