Every serious student of the Bible desires to understand the text, discover the biblical principles, and apply the truths too his/her life. This commentary is designed to help students, pastors, and Bible teachers understand Revelation in a simple manner. Working from the popular New International Version (Niv), the author provides helpful commentary on the text verse-by-verse. This verse-by-verse commentary is different from others in two respects. First, it is brief while some commentaries are unnecessarily wordy and verbose. Second, it is Pentecostal in outlook. This implies that we generally adhere to the doctrine of biblical inerrancy and adopt a literalist approach to the interpretation of the Bible. Many people today regard Revelation as the most difficult and mysterious book in the New Testament. As the last book of the Bible, it describes the final consummation of all things. In Genesis, the paradise was lost; Revelation shows the new paradise where we will commune intimately with God.

The story about precious, perfect, perky, pretty Poppy and his newly found full-of-fun friends is a story written with numerous tongue twisters. This book is a one of a kind. To my knowledge, there has never been a book like Poppy. This delightful and silly story will bring fun and laughter to everyone, especially when you read out loud. My wish, besides it being entertaining, is that Poppy will help children in need of better enunciation. Once you have read Poppy, you can't help but think, "I've never read anything like this" Poppy belonged to my two granddaughters, Brenna and Allie. He was a yellow mellow fellow, a parakeet. A rootie tootie cutie, mellow yellow fellow, a small gold parakeet named Poppy.

A crisis arises with the coat, and Patunia becomes the center of attention. The other children begin to poke fun at her because of it. Patunia's father soothes her, and later her mother comes home with a surprise solution.

Mum must leave the family for medical treatment for weeks at a time. Jimmy is thought to be near death and is rushed to a remote hospital by a trapper with a dogsled.

This is an illustrated storybook for all ages. God has uniquely designed each one of us to fulfill His purpose. And that design requires submitting to His plan and believing that it is the best plan for our lives. He has also designed us to be responsive to one another. If you reside in the presence of God and commit to His plan, you will fully walk in the purpose He has for your life. And to know and walk in that is truly a treasure. I encourage you to remain on His course (not to jump ship).
