In a short simple parable, this book relates in an understandable way, what it takes to be a hearer only, as opposed to what it takes to be, and the rewards of becoming a listener.

This Parable offers the reader clarity of the way in which God desires to see us give, in tithes, as well as offerings. It is a concise picture of the varied abilities found in the amounts people are able to give.

It is certain to bring both relief to some, and conviction to others. This small, but powerful book, will be an inspiration to many.

Parable of the Two Sons, is about how we have responded to doing the works which Father God requires of each of us. Using my own example, I trace the words and actions of the son who in the parable given by Jesus, said, "I will not work in your vineyard." Then later repented and went to work. It is a good parable to cause self examination, and perhaps motivate people to take action in doing their Fathers' work.

This book truly lives up to its name by showing how being born again can be an enjoyable, meaningful, sustainable experience to anyone who believes. It speaks with clarity and certainty about how to be a true follower of Christ without any regrets, or any desire to turn back. <br><br>Born-again life is not an upgrade or a transformation of our life in Adam, but a total replacement of it. This life, though expressed through our physical humanity, has not a thread of humanity in it. It is absolutely incorruptible and totally divine, because it originated directly from the incorruptible God. <br><br>Many born-again Christians are failing in their walk with God because, unknowingly, they are disconnected from the very life they received from Him, while attempting to do the impossible—desperately trying to make their life in Adam live for Christ. However, born-again life is not about me trying living for Christ, but totally about Christ living for me, and me surrendering to the reality of His presence and work in, and through, me.<br><br>This book is designed to show believers—new and old—how to recognize and connect with the incorruptible, victorious life of Jesus within them, and how to successfully integrate and reflect the power of that life in all their daily interactions and affairs. God has created us anew in Christ Jesus to accomplish great and wonderful things in the earth, and it is time for the world to see the magnificent manifestation of the sons and daughters of God. <br><br>Certainly, this priceless, literary gem holds a lot of pleasant surprises for you. It is guaranteed to challenge your current understanding of yourself, and produce a positive, permanent change in your life. God gave you the inalienable right to become His child, through Jesus Christ, and you deserve to enjoy the full measure of that life NOW! This book will show you how.

In his best-selling classic, It's All God, modern mystic, Walter Starcke bridges the gap between our humanity and Divinity, as well as our traditional limited perspectives and our emerging Cosmic Consciousness.<br><br>With the insight of a biblical scholar, Starcke clarifies the foundational Truths of our Judeo-Christian tradition, as he takes humanity's spiritual roots forward into the light of the new state of human consciousness that is emerging today. His masterful knowledge of Scriptures unlocks the truths laid out in both the Old and New Testament not found in other metapshyical books. Starcke calls us to no longer separate God from our humanity and the world. With this awareness we understand that the teachings of Jesus have not been fully realized until now as humanity begins the new cycle of the Age of the Gods.<br><br>The awareness that It's All God is a requirement for living fully in this new Age of the Gods, which is this Golden Cycle we have just begun. <br>Starcke wrote that, "we have been given all the pieces, each necessary, none missing, and if we want to complete the picture it is up to us to stop excluding those parts of ourselves and of our feelings that we have thought did not belong in the picture. If God is truly the only Power and Presence, then every piece, no matter how seemingly negative, insignificant, or inappropriate, has a purpose. Instead of discarding those aspects of ourselves that seem faulty or unworthy, when we stop judging them and see what they are telling us, we can find a right place for those energies and then we can complete the puzzle."<br><br>In Part One his in-depth knowledge takes us from the traditional approach through the Gnostics, to clear in-sights on the teachings of Jesus and Paul. Uniquely Starcke relates these teachings to modern Quantum Physics and the evolution of Consciousness. Starcke is not only a Biblical scholar, but also well versed in the workings of consciousness, perceptions, and reality. Part One also includes Starcke's marvelous mystical insights and meditations.<br><br>In Part Two of It's All God, Starcke gives us the "how to's" of practical mysticism to apply Divine Truth to our daily lives. No matter where a reader is on the path, he will find the steps to greater awareness and the clarification of the puzzle humanity has been working on for countless lifetimes. "We are all on the right path at the right time. The time is Now." These how to's are not superficial, they require that we come to understand our True Self and live the Truth of our Being.<br>In part three Starcke takes us beyond our customary perspective into the realms of Higher Consciousness. These take us clearly into the new cycle, The Age of the Gods.<br><br>The realization that It's All God is the key to spiritual healing, true transformative forgiveness, and the daily expression of our Divine humanity. It is a book whose time has come. We are now ready as never before to delve into it's insights and live it's Truths. It's All God is required reading for many ministerial programs and should now be require reading for us all to live fully during this new cycle far beyond 2012. Starcke was not only ahead of his time, but a master for all Ages with tools for the rest of our journey in awareness as we live fully as Divine Humans.

The books of Moses are the first five books of the Jewish and Christian. They are Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers and Deuteronomy. In the Hebrew Bible they are collectively known as the "Torah". The Torah books have been collectively defined as books of "instruction or teaching", which is the literal interpretation of "Torah". However the Torah has been collectively referred to as "The Law" or "The Law of Moses". In Greek, those first five books are known as the Pentateuch. In the Septuagint Greek version of the Old Testament Bible (LXX) they are called "Law" after the Greek word nomos. <br><br>Disregarding the arguments that Moses was not the author of these books (the general consensus is that he is the author) the Books present a record of the greatest manifestation of God on the earth before Christ. The acts, ways and personality of God are portrayed no better than in these books. They highlights His personality are: His love, kindness, mercy, flexibility, jealous anger and the fact that He will stop at nothing until He has a people for His own possession. The books in Moses portray a meek and humble man called to a task greater than himself. God called him the most humble man on the face of the earth. <br><br>Moses, according to the record, spoke face to face with God. This is the most unique example of God moving through a frail human vessel (excluding Christ). In return for his courage and humility God performed great and wonderful acts through him. God did not move sovereignly but through this man. This is always, to the present day, the way God moves. "Surely the Lord GOD does nothing Unless He reveals His secret counsel To His servants the prophets" (Amos 3:7). <br><br>Moses knew the Lord. He knew both His acts and His ways, which set him apart from the peoples he served. "He made known His ways to Moses, His acts [not His ways] to the sons of Israel" (Psalm 103:7). Consider the acts done by God through Moses. He delivered a nation of hundreds of thousands of people from the most powerful nation on the earth at the time (Egypt). At the same time God judged the gods of Egypt so that Egypt as a nation never returned to its former glory. He established arguably the greatest form of government known at the time. It was the first, and only, workable theocracy, governed by one God. <br><br>Moses stood between God and the people. Many times God, in His jealous anger, meant to destroy the entire nation. However, time after time, Moses changed His mind. <br><br>In the book of Genesis the lineage of the nation of Israel (and eventually Christ), is followed from Abraham, to Isaac and finally Jacob who was renamed for the nation Israel. The book details how god created the worlds from nothing by speaking a Word "Let it be". The fall of man from paradise to futility is chronicled. However that futility was imposed in hope that it would one day be restored. "For the creation was subjected to futility, not willingly, but because of Him who subjected it, in hope the creation itself also will be set free from its slavery to corruption into the freedom of the glory of the children of God" (Romans 8:20-21). <br><br>Israel means "struggle or contend with God" and the book portrays this struggle. It shows how God used any circumstance, acceptable to man or not, to preserve the lineage which became a nation. He used the cunning deceit of man (Jacob) and the unbelief of a man (Abraham) in order to fulfill His purpose. He established the principle that it is by faith that we prevail with God. The book is a perfect example of the words of the New Testament: "And we know that God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose" (Romans 8:28). The book details the lineages of men He rejected (Esau, Ishmael perhaps Lot). However, even to those He rejected He showed compassion by making nations of them. Their descendants, however, became the enemies Israel eventually confronted in the Promised Land. <br><br>The Old Testament, and the Books of Moses specifically. are images of heavenly things. Hebrews (8;4-5) says: "Now if He [ speaking of Christ] were on earth, He would not be a priest at all, since there are those who offer the gifts according to the Law; who serve a copy and shadow of the heavenly things" (Hebrews 8:4-5). Included in this book are detailed descriptions of how the Old Testament Feasts and rituals apply to Christianity today. The Books of Moses, rich in detail of the methods of forgiving sin by sacrifice and obedience, show the greatness of Christ's sacrifice which provided salvation once for all eternally. The Old Testament sacrifices provided forgiveness for sin but only temporarily. <br><br>Hebrews explains the evolution of the old method of forgiving sins (called the Old Covenant) with the New Covenant initiated by Christ which forgives sins eternally by one sacrifice. Under the Old covenant sins were temporarily forgiven by application of ritual sacrifice. But under Christ it was His blood, not the blood of animal sacrifices, that forgave sin eternally. <br><br>"Now even the first covenant had regulations of divine worship and the earthly sanctuary (Exodus 25:8). For there was a tabernacle prepared, the outer one, in which were the lampstand and the table and the sacred bread; this is called the holy place (Exodus 25:23-29). Behind the second veil (Exodus 26:31-33) there was a tabernacle which is called the Holy of Holies, (Exodus 26:33). having a golden altar of incense (Exodus 30:1-5) and the ark of the covenant (Exodus 25:10) covered on all sides with gold, in which was a golden jar holding the manna, and Aaron's rod which budded (Numbers 17:10), and the tables of the covenant; and above it were the cherubim of glory (Exodus 25:1) overshadowing the mercy seat; (Exodus 25:19). but of these things we cannot now speak in detail. Now when these things have been so prepared, the priests are continually entering the outer tabernacle performing the divine worship, but into the second, only the high priest enters (Exodus 20:10) once a year, not without taking blood, which he offers for himself and for the sins of the people committed in ignorance (Numbers 15:25). The Holy Spirit is signifying this, that the way into the holy place has not yet been disclosed while the outer tabernacle is still standing, which is a symbol for the present time. Accordingly both gifts and sacrifices are offered which cannot make the worshiper perfect in conscience, since they relate only to food and drink and various washings, regulations for the body imposed until a time of reformation. <br><br>The New Covenant: "But when Christ appeared as a high priest of the good things to come, He entered through the greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this creation; and not through the blood of goats and calves, but through His own blood, He entered the holy place once for all, having obtained eternal redemption. For if the blood of goats and bulls and the ashes of a heifer sprinkling those who have been defiled sanctify for the cleansing of the flesh, how much more will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered Himself without blemish to God, cleanse your conscience from dead works to serve the living God? For this reason He is the mediator of a new covenant, so that, since a death has taken place for the redemption of the transgressions that were committed under the first covenant, those who have been called may receive the promise of the eternal inheritance (Hebrews 9:1-15). <br><br>By Christ initiating the New Covenant the Old Covenant was rendered obsolete. Righteousness was no longer obtained by obeying the Law but, according to God's covenant with Abraham, it was forgiven by faith in Christ. Christ fulfilled all of the laws for us. No longer are we obligated in ourselves to keep the law; Christ did it for us. Christ said: "Do not think that I came to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I did not come to abolish but to fulfill. "For truly I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not the smallest letter or stroke [jot or tittle] shall pass from the Law until all is accomplished" (Matthew 5:17-18). <br><br>Ancient Israel, for whom the law was written, was never able to fulfill the Law in themselves. Their failure became our tutor, showing us that the law cannot be fulfilled through our own efforts. "But before faith came, we were kept in custody under the law, being shut up to the faith which was later to be revealed. Therefore the Law has become our tutor to lead us to Christ, so that we may be justified by faith. But now that faith has come, we are no longer under a tutor" (Galatians 3:23-25). <br><br>Therefore the Old Testament, and the Books of Moses, become the foundation of our faith. The law becomes our fulfillment, not our obligation. We, as Christ, will become the Law. As Hebrews 8:10 says: "FOR THIS IS THE COVENANT THAT I WILL MAKE WITH THE HOUSE OF ISRAEL AFTER THOSE DAYS, SAYS THE LORD: I WILL PUT MY LAWS INTO THEIR MINDS, AND I WILL WRITE THEM ON THEIR HEARTS. AND I WILL BE THEIR GOD, AND THEY SHALL BE MY PEOPLE" In other words it will become our nature not to sin which will unlock all the promises of God to us. When our ways are pleasing to the Lord we inherit His Kingdom. <br><br>Hopefully this book will convey an understanding of the Old Testament as it relates to Christianity today. Rather than being an obsolete recitation of history it is a living reality in Christ. Jesus said to the Pharisees: "You search the Scriptures because you think that in them you have eternal life; it is these that testify about Me;" (John 5:39). So we too receive Christ's life from the Old Testament as well as the new. .
