The Ark of the Covenant - Investigating the Ten Leading Claims Book
What happened to the Ark of the Covenant? The mystery of the Bible’s lost Ark has led to many myths, theories and claims being made, but do any
of them have a shred of credibility? Now, join two explorers as they investigate the ten major theories concerning the location of antiquities
greatest relic.
Using professional archaeological reports, eyewitness accounts and personal exploration, from Pharaoh Tutankhamun’s tomb to Ethiopia’s underground
rock churches, the investigators are able to eliminate popular myths and legends by searching for the truth in their quest for the Ark of the Covenant.
One of the GREAT needs in China is for Bibles. The Word of God in simplified Chinese, a full Bible inside China costs just £1.50 ($2.40) each at
retail price but are tricky to obtain. China is home to the world’s largest printing Press, though the vest majority of Bibles are for export
and the brethren inside China (especially House Church members) struggle to get the quantities they need. This is often from 100 to 100,000s
per House Church and they have a very good network of ministry and outreach, within China and beyond, especially along the old Silk Road
(between China and the Mediterranean) which encompasses the 10/40 window, of the least evangelised peoples of the world. House Churches are
unregistered churches, often so because they cannot register, paperwork is too complex, they get fobbed off, or because the believers refuse
to compromise and to be told what they can and cannot preach on.

What has Christianity ever done for the world? The answer is both profound and inexhaustible. Discover how faith in the message of the Bible became
the single most important influence in the development of the modern world.
New book for 2009! How Christianity Made the Modern World, by Paul Backholer. Christianity is the greatest reforming force that the world has ever known,
yet its legacy is seldom comprehended.
But now using personal observations from his research in over thirty-five nations, the author brings this legacy alive by revealing how Christianity
helped create the path that led to Western liberty and laid the foundations of the modern world. Calling upon over four-hundred source references,
including presidents, prime ministers and mainstream sources, the historical record presents that from education to democracy, from human rights
to science, and from law to language etc., Christianity has always been at the fore!
