The Septuagint, the name given to the translation of the Hebrew scriptures between the third century BC and the second century AD, played a central role in the Bible's history. Many of the Hebrew scriptures were still evolving when they were translated into Greek, and these Greek translations, along with several new Greek writings, became Holy Scripture in the early Church. Yet gradually the Septuagint lost its place at the heart of Western Christianity.

"Le livre de Josué" est le premier livre historique de l'Ancien Testament chrétien et le premier livre des Prophètes dans la Bible hébraïque. Il fait suite au Pentateuque, qui se termine par la mort de Moïse aux portes du pays de Canaan.

Selon la tradition juive, il fut écrit par Jérémie, lequel puisa dans des documents anciens qui dateraient du Xe siècle av. J.-C.

When Satan claimed to have authority over the kingdoms of the world and said he could give them to whomever he chose, why did Jesus not contradict him? Why instead did Jesus go on to describe Satan as the "god of this world?" If Satan is the spiritual head over the world's governments, can there be such a thing as a Christian nation? In Fight the Powers, Cody Cook compiles the relevant biblical data which draws connections between political power and spiritual forces, seeking to answer the question of how Christians ought to relate to the state in light of these connections.

Just as the title implies, this book reveals how you have been deceived on a MASSIVE scale that scripture actually prophesied (Rev 12:9, 20:7-8), we have researched the numerous " prophetic understandings" being widely taught, and they are wrong. This, seven years later, when I began learning, still astonishes me. That is the mythbusting aspect of the book or 1st argument presented, the 2nd argument is the replacement offered. So, even if you disagree with the replacement, that is only the second argument and you are still freed from the myth!
