<b>Alors que la vie s'écoule lentement de son corps, Martha est ramenée à la vie par une ombre étrange qui n'a rien d'humain... </b> <br> <br>Et si un jour, au tréfonds des enfers, le diable décidait qu’il ne voulait plus se cacher sous terre ? S’il entreprenait de se faire connaitre des humains, et d’en faire ses fidèles ? Et si, pour cela, il avait besoin de l’aide d’une jeune femme, une simple mortelle qui signera de son sang un pacte qui bouleversera son existence ? <br>Et si le diable avait un fils ? <br> <br> <b>Découvrez le monde souterrain, dans lequel se côtoient des démons et les hommes Conscients, gouvernés par le Seigneur de l'Enfer, et laissez-vous embarquer dans les périples de Martha, à la destinée extraordinaire... </b> <br> <br>EXTRAIT <br> <br>Écrasée, étouffée, asphyxiée. Martha se retrouvait encore une fois dans ce même cauchemar. L’obscure silhouette était toujours au rendez-vous, et semblait plus déterminée que jamais à broyer la cage thoracique de la jeune femme. Il était toujours impossible pour Martha de voir clairement à quoi ressemblait l’intrus qui se tenait assis sur elle, pas plus qu’elle ne distinguait en arrière-plan ce qui devait logiquement être sa chambre, où elle s’était endormie, une éternité plus tôt. La douleur dans sa poitrine était intense, presque insoutenable. Il lui semblait que ses côtes étaient lentement broyées tandis que ses poumons cherchaient désespérément un peu d’air pour la garder consciente. <br>C’est une sensation horrible que de se faire tuer, même dans un cauchemar. C’était la troisième fois que Martha éprouvait cela en une journée. Elle ne pouvait toujours rien faire pour se libérer du poids du monstre qui l’oppressait. En réalité, la menaçante créature semblait liée à Martha par un lien viscéral, que rien ne peut briser. C’était exactement comme si elle avait toujours été là, dans l’ombre, attendant les moments de faiblesse de la jeune femme pour frapper. En fait, Martha avait le sentiment profond que cette chose obscure et effrayante était une partie d’elle-même, une partie haïe et rejetée, mais essentielle, de son être, comme un organe cancéreux, qui nous fait à la fois vivre et mourir. <br> <br> <br> <br>

Each day of 2015 Jan Carson wrote a short story on the back of a postcard and mailed it to a friend. Each of these tiny stories was inspired by an event, an overheard conversation, a piece of art or just a fleeting glance of something worth thinking about further. In this collection of highlights, Carson presents a panoramic view of contemporary Belfast – its streets, coffee shops, museums and airports – through a series of small but perfectly formed snapshots of her home.

Creating E-books in epub format is very important to sell E-books in electronic book stores. Most publishing and distribution E-book stores will not accept the epub format document for E-book if it includes any warnings or errors when validated and that is a very big challenge to all authors. I devoted this book to evaluate some tools that can be used for creating, validating and editing E-books to be in proper Epub format without errors. Personally, I suggest the following guidelines for preparing E-book in Epub format. • Write the document in Microsoft word as .docx file. Make sure to properly setup the h1headings and h2 headings and h3 headings on each section of the document as these data are the most important data used by the Epub management software to convert the document to epub format. • Convert the Microsoft document to Epub format using Calibre E-book management software. Add all required metadata and the cover and also create a table of contents when converting the file. • Using any Epub reader, check if the layout of epub document according to the headings you made on the word document is good and comfortable to any reader. • Validate the epub document to see if it has errors and warnings using the website http://validator.idpf.org. • Then try to troubleshoot and identify the exact location of the errors detected by the epub validator on the epub document by tracing the code view of the epub document using Sigil epub editor. Then, modify the word document to eliminate the errors. And reconvert the word document to epub format using Calibre E-book management software. Validate the updated epub document for any errors again. This book contains the following sections: 1. Some online publishing and distribution stores 2. Epub Validators 3. Creation Epub file through online websites 4. Common software's to convert a file to Epub format 5. Converting document to Epub format using Calibre software 6. Editing Epub documents using Sigil Epub Editor

Glaube und Theologie stehen seit den Anfängen des Christentums in produktiver Spannung zueinander, die die Reformation mit ihrem Prinzip des sola fide einerseits und mit ihrer Institutionalisierung einer schriftzentrierten akademischen Theologie andererseits in besonderer Weise aktualisiert hat. Dadurch entwickelte sich in den neu entstandenen Evangelisch-theologischen Fakultäten eine "wissenschaftliche Theologie" auf höchstem Niveau, die weltweit rezipiert wurde. Diese Theologie sieht sich allerdings in jüngster Zeit kritischen Anfragen ausgesetzt. Säkularisierungsprozesse führen zu einem massiven religiösen Bildungsverlust und damit zu einer Trivialisierung von Theologie. Zeitgleich breiten sich weltweit christliche Gruppen aus, die auf eine akademische theologische Ausbildung keinen Wert legen. In Anbetracht dieser Situation entsteht die Frage, inwiefern die Theologie reformatorischer Tradition auch in Zukunft religionsproduktiv sein und eine für die Kirchen grundlegende Arbeit leisten kann. Um diese Frage zu diskutieren, trafen sich auf Einladung des Evangelisch-Theologischen Fakultätentages, der Wissenschaftlichen Gesellschaft für Theologie und der Evangelischen Kirche in Deutschland im Oktober 2017 Theologinnen und Theologen unterschiedlicher christlicher Konfessionen in Wittenberg zu einer internationalen Konferenz. Deren wegweisende Beiträge sind in diesem Band veröffentlicht. Since the beginnings of Christianity, there has been a fundamental tension between faith and theology. The Reformation, with its principle of sola fide on the one hand and its institutionalisation of a scripture-based academic theology on the other hand, drew particular attention to the tension and suggested new answers to that problem. That effort contributed to a fundamental transformation of academic theology within the faculties of Protestant Theology which emerged as a result of the movement. In the past decades, however, academic theology has come under considerable pressure. [In much of Europe and North America,] The process of secularization has led to a massive decline in religious education and – partially as a reaction to this – to a trivialization of academic theology. At the same time, one can observe a global proliferation of evangelical and Pentecostal groups. These groups sometimes display a certain indifference towards academic theological training, or even reject it altogether. In view of this development the question arises to what extent the relationship between faith and theology as defined in the wake of the Reformation will in future continue to be religiously productive and may thus serve the churches and their congregations.

The mechanical philosophy originates in the 18th century and is based on ideas that were already advocated by ancient philosophers. Instead of explaining the world with the help of gods and founding a whole value system based on the teachings of a religion, the followers of mechanical philosophy sought their answers in nature and its laws. For them, the universe was a gigantic and complex mechanism governed by the principle of cause and effect. They even extended this view onto human beings, seeing them as another product of nature and not as a divine creation. The free will, of whose existence we are all convinced, is questioned as well. What follows from this world view and what does it mean for us, for our society and our understanding of morality, guilt, good and evil? The book "The Cog in the Wheel" is conceived as a compact work that is intended to provide the reader with the most comprehensive insight possible into the fundamentals and conclusions of mechanical philosophy. The structure of the book is pragmatic and starts with an explanation of the terms materialism, determinism and the principle of causality. In the next chapter the far-reaching consequences of these propositions are presented and explained. Here, numerous topics are taken up which, under the premise of mechanical philosophy, must be reassessed. These include, for example, the concept of nature, the difference between animate and inanimate matter, the highest good for mankind, and considerations regarding the meaning of life. The book contains examples, usually following theoretical explanations, which present the preceding information in a comprehensible way. This should also give those readers an introduction to the subject who have never dealt with it before. The last chapter is a summary and serves the practical application of theoretical knowledge. This handbook is not primarily intended as a guide to life but is mainly designed to introduce the interested reader to a particular school of philosophy, from its foundations to its application.

AN ALTERNATIVE VIEW OF REALITY Divine Times describes the somewhat peculiar way in which a family of Sri Sathya Sai Baba's devotees live. From the very beginning of their relationship with the Great Avatar these people have been receiving messages by way of dreams, visitations and primarily meditations. Each devotee has his or her personal way of relating to the Being that millions of people in the world have accepted as the Highest Divine Incarnation to have descended to the density of the third dimension. This is their way. Life in the countryside has been full of challenges but having been isolated from society for so long has given them the opportunity to cultivate the contemplation of the Self and to practice silence as a way of life, all along applying the teachings received directly from the Great Avatar and from other Light Beings that have visited them over the years. In this book you will also find some propagating and cultivating techniques that they have used to grow most of their food in the harsh and semi-desertic Australian environment in which they live. The main objective of the book is to reveal an alternative reality, a different way of living a spiritual life to which more and more people are awakening; they put spirituality into practice, which is one of the simplest ways to return to Divinity, that which is our ultimate goal.
