How Animals and Humans Make Sense of Things: The Dawn of Art, Ethics, Science, Politics, and Religion
Jesse James Thomas
About the Book
EMBODIMENT, How Animals and Humans Make Sense of Things: The Dawn of Art, Ethics, Science, Politics, and Religion describes Life from the ground up in Nature, Animals, and us in dilemmas we have in our complex society. It also continues Dr. Thomas’s Youniverse 2020 subtitle: The Spirit of the Twenty First Century. This book too is full of both humorous and serious stories and lessons in addressing problems of our own currently polarized society.

Rudra Gita
Behera Raj
About the Book
Rudra Gita is a collection of hymns sung by Lord Siva for the glorification of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Krishna. By His causeless mercy, Lord Rudra instructed this message to ten Pracetas, elevated saintly kings, sons of Prancibarhi. This song is as good as Bhagavad Gita, spoken by Lord Krishna, and this Rudra Gita is also powerful as the radiance of the sun. Rudra Gita is found in the spotless literature, Srimad Bhagavatam’s fourth canto. This book contains the unique characteristics and qualities of Lord Siva. Rudra is as good as Vishnu in a comparison of milk to yogurt. Please relish the unlimited bliss by going through this book.About the Author

Epistemic Standpoints
Theological and Sociological
M. D. Litonjua
About the Book
Pilate asked “What is truth?” We too struggle with the question and we search for an answer. Correspondence theory told us that we grasp with our external senses objective reality, and the truth lies in the correspondence of the mind to external objective reality. The problem is that, except for basic mathematical equations, this explanation does not account for the diversity of opinions, the conflict of ideas, and the clash of ideologies. This does not include, of course, outright lies, denial of facts, manipulation of data, the malice of fake news.
We do not see things with the naked eye as they are. We see them from a certain perspective, from a specific point of view. A tree is not simply a tree. A tree provides restful shade to a weary traveler. It is useful lumber for the logger. It yields oxygen for a polluted atmosphere in the eyes of an environmentalist. It is an inspiration for a poem by Joyce Kilmer. In other words, it is foundationally a matter of, using a philosophical word, one’s epistemology. It involves one’s interests and concerns, it depends on what one considers important in life, the meaning he searches for in society and the world, how one conceives what life should be. We see, appreciate, judge from an epistemic standpoint.
The acknowledgement of different epistemic standpoints is the basis for dialogue, for the respectful discussion of differences of opinion, for the legitimate clash of ideologies. The acceptance of multiple standpoints is also the foundation for cooperation in spite of differences, for the search of common solutions to common problems, and for solidarity for the common good.About the Author

Ayiti tounen vin jwenn Bondye
Apot Odule Bitol
About the Book
Istwa toujou bezwen yon moun ki pou kòmanse l. Nan kòmansman Bondye kreye syèl la ak tè a. Apre sa Bondye Chache jwenn yon moun ki gen kè ki dwat pou l ka kontinye istwa.Depi nan kòmansman jouk jounen jodi a, te toujou gen nonm ak fanm ki se moun Bondye ki chwazi kite tout bagay pou yo reponn ak apèl Bondye.
Apre tout rimè nou fin tande sou nasyon sa, mwen kwè gen kèk nan nou pami tout moun ki sou latè k ap poze tèt nou kesyon sa a : « sa k ap pase nan reyèlman an ayiti la? » jodi a, mwen ta renmen ede nou konprann reyalite nasyon sa. Bondye se repons nou, menm jan li te repons pou pèp Niniv lan ak pèp izrayèl la lè yo pa t konnen sa pou yo fè.
Nan ane 1904, Galwa yo t ap pase yon moman ki te difisil anpil. Bondye toupisan an te fe pwovizyon pou yo, pou yo te kapab soti anba nan sa yo te ye a. Bondye te pete yon kokenn chenn revèy espirityèl nan mitan yo tankou li te fè nan jou lapannkòt la, konsa nasyon sa a te kòmanse ekri yon lòt paj istwa.
Objektif mwen, gras ak sipò priyè nou, se ekri yon lot paj istwa pou nasyon Ayisyèn an kapab soti anba grif ansíen lisifè, zanj limyè ki te tonbe nan fè nwa a epi ki sere kle pwosperite no unan fon lanfè depi plis pase desanzan
Menm jan lè wa neboukadneza t ap chache jwenn yon repons pou l te kapab konnen sa k gen pou rive , li te jwenn li anwo. Paske se Bondye ki te repons lan e se Bondye ki toujou repons lan jouk jounen jodi a e pou tout tan gen tan. kidonk, pwoblèm nasyon nou an e pwoblèm tout lòt nasyon ki nan mond lan pa ni sosyal, ni materyèl, men se yon pwoblèm espirityèl. Nou dwe tounen vin jwenn Bondye paske li se repons lan. Mwen priye Bonndye pou l kontinye beni nou e pi pou l ban nou lajwa nan liv sa a.

The Anointing Exposes the Deeds of the Flesh
Merits Henry
About the Book
The Time Has Come To Receive As a people birthed with purpose, God has reserved the best for the last to display his tangible anointing power to a dying world. The anointing is that divine inducement from above, and not a desire of emotional feelings. It comes not with years of experience, status and articulates. But rather it is given by laying aside every weight and sin that easily besets us. He has placed a “”now power”” (Ephesians 3:20) on the inside of you to defeat your adversary. This power is actually on the inside of you right now. This is the beginning of miracles concerning you – just believe! Discovering the anointing on your life; you will realize that it an inheritance given to serve and not to be served.
I believe we are at a prophetic crossroad in history to witness a people with a new birth – destined to walk in a double portion of his spirit, just as Elisha received a double portion of Elijah’s spirit. God has saved us, the best, for the last. Therefore, we must desire nothing less than the anointing that destroys yokes of bondage, opens blind eyes, straightens crippled limbs, mends broken homes and deliver every captive. God’s Word promises that there will be an overflow, or a double portion, of wine and oil (or anointing), coming your way in one month. That’s a double blessing! This double portion is waiting for you, it is part of your inheritance through Christ Jesus. It will show you how to walk in the anointing of the Holy Spirit and do greater works than that of the risen Messiah. This is your hour of power! This is your day to receive your double portion. After reading this book your life should never be the same again. It is my desire that readers obtain spiritual experiences and insights that will enlarge their spiritual vision for tomorrow.About the Author
Merits is the author of three books. “The Anointing Exposes the Deeds of the Flesh” and “The Spiritual Benefits of Praise” and Worship, and “Love Reveals the Heart of God,” which is one of the most inspirational books ever written about the sovereign and eternal love of God.
He is the founder of Worship Conference Ministries, Canada, Cayman Islands and Jamaica. He is a licensed counselor as well as a Certified Chaplain. He has a passion for teaching people about Christ and help them to walk in the freedom that God has ordained.
With a voice of hope and encouragement, he travels extensively preaching and teaching the Word of God.

The Modern-Day Cyrus
2nd Edition
Rev. Robert Antwi
About the Author
During the Exodus from Egypt to the Promised Land, God told the Israelites that the city in which He would place His name should be their center of worship or the economic capital. “But unto the place which the Lord your God shall choose out of all your tribes to put his name there, even unto his habitation shall ye seek and thither thou shall come.”(Deuteronomy 12:5) Around 1000 BC the God of Abraham selected Jerusalem to place His name there and David to rule His people. David became king of ancient Israel when God selected Jerusalem to place His name and made Jerusalem the center of worship {spiritual and economic capital}. “But I have chosen Jerusalem that my name might be there; and have chosen David to be over my people Israel.”(2 Chronicles 6:6) Therefore, God chose Jerusalem to put His name there and David to rule over His people (Israel).The Jew know their history and Jerusalem was proclaimed the capital. On May 14, 1948, Ben-Gurion proclaimed the formation of Israel. Jerusalem is the capital and the largest city in Israel. Tel Aviv is Israel’s economic and technology center. Jerusalem is the capital, but it has limited recognition. International bodies and many countries around the world do not recognize Jerusalem as the capital of Israel. I believe it is time for the world to recognize Jerusalem as the capital. I believe Donald Trump won the election to declare and recognize Jerusalem as the capital of Israel. In 538 BC, Crazy he save the Babylonians. I have declared President Donald Trump the modern-day Cyrus. Just as King Cyrus set the Babylonian captivity, Donald Trump is setting Jerusalem free from the slave of unrecognition.

Will I Find Faith?
Christianity at a Crossroads
Fred Snowden
About the Book
Will Jesus find faith on the earth when He returns? Will He find faith in America? No doubt, the America of 2020 is much different from that of 1960. Church attendance has declined from 80% to 15%, morality is redefined, secularism is attempting to neutralize Christianity and the new generation interprets the 1st Amendment as freedom from religion rather than freedom of religion. Socialism is on the rise and the church is in retreat. In II Chronicles 7:14, the scriptures declare, “If my people, who are called by my name will humble themselves and pray and turn from their wicked ways; I will hear from heaven, forgive their sins and heal their land.” Will believers awake or is the judgement of God the only thing that can bring us to our senses and to our knees? Our nation is being weighed in the balances and time is running out!About the Author
