Who is Santa Claus? And how did he, over Christ, become the Christmas idol? For centuries, the figure of Santa Claus has slowly overtaken the spotlight of the Christmas season, and humanity has begun substituting the celebration of the birth of Christ for the lust of material possessions. What many fail to understand, however, is that Christ is the greatest gift of all. Who Is Santa Claus Biblically? by Roland Ramirez exposes Santa Claus for who he truly is-the Enemy, a wolf hidden in sheep's clothing. In this work, Ramirez discusses how it is not of God when we take our eyes off of Jesus and place them on any other matter during the Christmas season. Satan is strategic in his maneuverings, Ramirez asserts, using three attacks to turn our attention away from Christ's glory: the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life. Removing the Word from our hearts over generations, Satan replaces blessed worship with cursed objects. The Enemy comes to steal, kill, and destroy. Even the most innocent sounding concepts like Santa Claus hold a far more sinful nature than we can imagine, and there is no greater deception than the loss of salvation. This year, put Christ back on the Christmas tree and hang the fruits of His sacrifice as ornaments. Jesus is the only One to receive the glory.

When the crucifixion of Jesus Christ happened, He suffered several wounds that each hold a deeper meaning and are essential for all Christians to understand. From the blood that was shed as sweat from His brow that dripped onto the ground to the piercing of His side with a spear, Jesus's pain is a reminder to all that He is truly our Savior and Redeemer. In The Revelation of the Cross for You, author Roland Ramirez explores the significance of the crucifixion of Jesus Christ, touching upon the historical aspects of crucifixion, the importance of every wound He endured, and how His fate changed ours. He shows how Jesus has restored our path to eternal life with Him through his death on the cross, compared to what it was because of the sins of Adam and Eve. Roland Ramirez ties the significance of the cross and the crucifixion all the way back to the Garden of Eden, where the path for this was initially made. The curses and sins of the Old Testament are discussed in terms of how they have transformed after the crucifixion took place. He illuminates the truth about the cross, emphasizing that it is the only way to understand the power of God, reach salvation and lead a life devoted to Him and His Word. For several years, Roland Ramirez has worked on this book. God sent him many revelations over the course of these years as he spent time praising and worshipping Him. As his relationship with the Lord grew, so did the pages of this book. The Lord has led him on his journey and continues to use Roland to inspire others through his writing.

Cat Avery's world revolved around "The 10 Ranch". Five years ago, Cat's twin brother Colton, her only sibling, left the ranch they grew up on. The sassy tomboy wondered if she would ever see him again. When trouble heads to the ranch stirring up problems for her and her family, she went to search for him, to no avail. With the railroad being made and possibly cattle rustlers encroaching on their ten thousand acres it comes down to Cat Avery and her grandfather and the cattle hands to protect what they hold dearest to them. Cat is a force to reckon with, and someone else seems to want this thing she values most. Born in a small rural town in the countryside of Kansas, and being the youngest of her family with three older brothers she was no stranger to dirt roads or honest work. Moving to Oklahoma in her twenties she enjoyed the country lifestyle. Raising horses, and cattle all year round, with a summertime garden. When she wasn't working or living the lifestyle, she spent time writing stories, painting, and traveling across the United States learning all kinds of history. Having a particularly soft spot for the Western 1800s history.

With a storm comes the victory of its finish. But before the victory, we must endure the trials. So, when the fierce winds and raging waters threaten to pull us beneath the surface, do we extend our hand to Christ? Or do we let ourselves be overtaken by the weather? Years ago, Roland Ramirez prayed to the Lord for a message to give to his people before a service. The Lord gave him the message, "You can walk on water." For years, this message remained a deep revelation, and one that grew over the years. Jesus and the Two Storms by Ramirez traverses the two storms Jesus faced with His disciples, found in the Book of Matthew and the Book of Mark. Both the message and demonstration of Jesus and Peter walking on water and the wind and waves obeying Jesus in the midst of a storm, though different, are miraculous. But how do they apply to modern life? Ramirez seeks to breaks these miracles down in a one-of-a-kind revelation, years in the making. Jesus performed miracles, and with them, He delivered lifelong lessons that we can all learn from, just as the disciples did. Ramirez seeks to guide you through the storms of life and help you deal with them in a more resourceful way and in accordance with Scripture. No storm is too big for Jesus. Jesus is above every storm of life, and through this work, you will see how you can always rely on Jesus to get you through every storm. To God be all the glory.

My mom always encouraged me to write a book. Before she went to heaven in 2019, I promised her that I would write one. Now, with this commentary on the book of James, I have completed my fourth book and have begun to work on my fifth. Lord willing, I will continue to write until my time on earth is finished. Dr. H. A. Ironside wrote regarding the biblical book of JAMES, "The theme of the Epistle of James is 'A Living Faith.' Paul deals justification before God, whereas James deals with justification before men, maintaining that righteous living and godly behavior accompany real faith.'" The book of James is a tremendous combination of he wisdom of Jesus Christ and the wisdom of Proverbs. James challenges us on how we should "live out" the great truths of God. Real life topics and issues are dealt with as they relate to God's Word.While our faith walk requires a great amount of growth of knowledge about the Bible, James encourages and exhorts us to not stop there. Accept his challenge today by beginning this vital study of this five-chapter book of God's Holy Word.

The title and the contents reflect a collection of thoughts, events, ideas and emotions. Most of them were written to create an impressive image, take a stand or provoke a yet-to-be solved controversial issue. A few were written just for mere entertainment. When one looks at a painting or other works of art, they begin to formulate words to express how it makes them feel or what image they see. "Stuph Like This," is intended to inspire, humor, relate to or formulate a picture in one's mind about what they read or hear. The first poem, "If I Die Tomorrow," was written in one of the most stressful times in my life, so I thought. It is intended to inspire one to live life to the fullest. Our tomorrows may be planned but not promised. I am a middle school teacher, one of few who graduated from high school a year early and had no idea of what I wanted to do in life. My mother and my aunt made a collaborative effort in guiding my future. In the final hours of closing registration, I submitted my application for admission to Claflin University in Orangeburg, SC. I entered the fine arts program and began my career with twenty-one hours of credit. Although my teaching career did not include art in the traditional sense, it was successfully used as an enhancement. Poetry, for me is an extension of art. It creates an image, an emotion or an opinion about what is read or heard. This collection is eclectic and not limited to a particular theme or scheme. Each piece was created at different times and reflects a variety of experiences along this journey called life.

Most pastors, especially coming out of the pandemic, are trying to find ways to engage their culture and reach young families. What if there was a way for pastors and churches to get in front of young couples and engage them regularly? What if young couples were actively looking for pastors? The answer is weddings.

This famous verse was my inspiration: John 3:16 - "For God so loved the world, that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish, but have eternal life." This is the 1st book of 31, which will go from the 1st of each month to the 31st of each month, since the 31st is the max number of days in a month. The "birth date" being the Bible verse in every book and chapter in the Bible. Some books are shorter than others, so your birth date may not fall in that book or chapter. This is not designed to be read in any special way, read what you feel God wants you to, hopefully a little each day. No matter if you just read one verse, that is one step closer to making your relationship with God that much more intimate.

God's unfathomable love and deep compassions compelled Him to give His beloved Son's life in exchange for the life of each individual comprising fallen humanity trapped in the overpowering clutches of sin and death. Covenant oaths, sworn by Father and Son before the foundations of the world, ensured limitless salvation and eternal life to those rescued from slavery to sin and death. God purposed in His heart to escort His beloved children back to the Garden-redeemed by the precious blood of His Son and restored to freedom, righteousness, and unbroken fellowship with Himself. Through covenant, God gives His people new hearts, new spirits, and His own Holy Spirit dwelling within, making them "one" with Him. God invites His covenant family to co-labor with Him to undo the works of the enemy and reclaim everything lost in the Garden of Eden-to advance the Kingdom of God in this earth.
