Chicago's Mansions
Chicago is known throughout the world for its architecture. Although many people are familiar with the citys skyscrapers and public buildings, they often overlook or are unaware of Chicagos mansions that are located throughout the city. These mansions represent Chicagos past and its future, and it can even be said that they are the very embodiment of Chicago and its architecture. These fashionable residences were built to make a statement, and what better way to have done this than to employ the leading architects of the time to design them. These architects included men such as Louis Sullivan, Frank Lloyd Wright, Henry Hobson Richardson, Daniel Burnham, and John Wellborn Root. While the citys mansions are significant because of who built them, they are just as important because of who lived in them. Many of these mansions were built for Chicagos elite businessmen and captains of industry-men who represented old money, new money and big money. Just as important were the families of these men and the other residents who came to live in these mansions-for they left a legacy of their own that contributed to the citys history.

Ghetto at the Center of the World
4e de couv.: Chungking Mansions, a dilapidated seventeen-story commercial and residential structure in the heart of Hong Kong's tourist district, is home to a remarkably motley group of people. Traders, laborers, and asylum seekers from all over Asia and Africa live and work there, and even backpacking tourists rent rooms in what is possibly the most globalized spot on the planet. But as Ghetto at the center of the world shows us, the Mansions is a world away from the gleaming headquarters of multinational corporations -instead it epitomizes the way globalization actually works for most of the world's people. Through candid stories that both instruct and enthrall, Gordon Mathews lays bare the building's residents' intricate connections to the international circulation of goods, money, and ideas.

The Doors of the Mansions
How much spiritual enlightenment do you have concerning the Many Mansions Jesus spoke about in John 14:2 when he said, "In My Father's House are Many Mansions?" Because those Mansions that Jesus makes reference to are all the born-again humans that have become "new creatures" in Christ Jesus, who is the Father's Spiritual House. Located on, around, and in these Mansions are doors that the owner built so that the Mansions may be entered legally. Therefore, by virtue of the existence of a door, anyone who enters another's property without the use of a door or permission from the owner with the intent to remove or replace items not authorized by the owner is considered to be a thief and a robber by Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ as written in John 10:1. In this book, The Doors of the Mansions, Minister Redd gives spiritual enlightenment on some devices 2Cor 2:11 Satan and other unclean spirits utilize to re-enter Luke 11:24 a Man's life after being born again a "New Creature in Christ Jesus".
