Kingdom Eschatology: The Glorious Future of the Church
The Dominion Mandate is one of strongest words that the Spirit is currently speaking to the churches. God expects us not only to save souls, but also to disciple whole nations. The history-makers of our generation will be transforming entire cities and regions for the kingdom of God, and our world will get better and better. The idea that some of us used to have that the church will be raptured and that Antichrist will take over, no longer can fit the serious implementation of the Dominion Mandate. How, then, should we think of the end times? Héctor Torres draws on his extensive historical knowledge, his skills in biblical exegesis, and his superb ability to communicate to give us important...
The Secret Rapture, Is it Scriptural?
All Christians generally believe that Christ will come again and believers will be caught up to meet the Lord in the air. But as to the TIME of this event, (in relation to other events) there is not this general agreement. M.R. De Haan states that believers will be "caught up into heaven" BEFORE the tribulation period, on the other hand, Oswald Smith states, "There is not one single verse in the Bible that upholds a pre-tribulation theory, in short, There is no scripture for a pre-tribulation rapture." In perhaps Evangelist Ralph Woodrow's best work, The Secret Rapture, Is it Scriptural, any Bible student will deeply appreciate his quick and concise ability to cut through the smoke and mirrors to get directly to the facts of what the Bible states on this important topic. This new edition, sanctioned by Brother Woodrow, includes a foreword by Pastor Al Stewart, a long time admirer of Brother Woodrow's ministry. Truly a must-have on this topic!
Urban China
Currently there are more than 125 Chinese cities with a population exceeding one million. The unprecedented urban growth in China presents a crucial development for studies on globalization and urban transformation. This concise and engaging book examines the past trajectories, present conditions, and future prospects of Chinese urbanization, by investigating five key themes - governance, migration, landscape, inequality, and cultural economy. Based on a comprehensive evaluation of the literature and original research materials, Ren offers a critical account of the Chinese urban condition after the first decade of the twenty-first century. She argues that the urban-rural dichotomy that was artificially constructed under socialism is no longer a meaningful lens for analyses and that Chinese cities have become strategic sites for reassembling citizenship rights for both urban residents and rural migrants. The book is essential reading for students and scholars of urban and development studies with a focus on China, and all interested in understanding the relationship between state, capitalism, and urbanization in the global context.
The Torture Letters
Torture is an open secret in Chicago. Nobody in power wants to acknowledge this grim reality, but everyone knows it happens—and that the torturers are the police. Three to five new claims are submitted to the Torture Inquiry and Relief Commission of Illinois each week. Four hundred cases are currently pending investigation. Between 1972 and 1991, at least 125 black suspects were tortured by Chicago police officers working under former Police Commander Jon Burge. As the more recent revelations from the Homan Square “black site” show, that brutal period is far from a historical anomaly. For more than fifty years, police officers who took an oath to protect and serve have instead beaten, ...
