William Atkinson – författare

First published in 1572, The Lusiads is one of the greatest epic poems of the Renaissance, immortalizing Portugal's voyages of discovery with an unrivalled freshness of observation. At the centre of The Lusiads is Vasco da Gama's pioneer voyage via southern Africa to India in 1497-98. The first European artist to cross the equator, Camoes's narrative reflects the novelty and fascination of that original encounter with Africa, India and the Far East. The poem's twin symbols are the Cross and the Astrolabe, and its celebration of a turning point in mankind's knowledge of the world unites the old map of the heavens with the newly discovered terrain on earth. Yet it speaks powerfully, too, of the precariousness of power, and of the rise and decline of nationhood, threatened not only from without by enemies, but from within by loss of integrity and vision.

At the turn of the 20th century New Thought proponents sought to use mysticism to unleash the forces of the universe in themselves.WILLIAM WALKER ATKINSON was one of the most influential thinkers of this early “New Age” philosophy. He promises in this book:• To show you how to cultivate memory in such a way as to improve your entire life• His method is not geared to mere recollection of facts• To teach a holistically “correct seeing, thinking, and remembering• His method trains the eye as well as the ear to improve your ability to recall names, faces, numbers, music, facts, and much more• To show how important the function of the mind is that has to do with the retention of mental impressions• Why the recall of faces, names, facts, events, and circumstances is the measure of one’s ability to accomplish anything“In the higher activities of thought, the memory comes as an invaluable aid to the individual in marshalling the bits of knowledge he may have acquired and passing them in review before his cognitive faculties—thus does the soul review its mental possessions.” —William Walker Atkinson

William was a happy young boy who started to notice he was different from his school mates around the age of 4. This is a story of William's feelings as he struggled to meet the expectations of both his peers and his teachers. William wants people around him to understand what everyday life is like for him and the invisible struggles that he has to overcome daily.

Reasoning is defined as: The act, process or art of exercising the faculty of reason ;the act or factdty of employing reason in argument; argumentation, ratiocination; reasoning power; disputation, discussion, argumentation. Stewart says: The word reason itself is far from being precise in its meaning. In common and popular discourse it denotes that power by which we distinguish truth from falsehood, and right from wrong, and by which we are enabled to combine means for the attainment of particular ends.

Winner of the Award of Excellence of the Foundation for Pentecostal Scholarship 2010.The teaching of Kenyon, Hagin and Copeland that Jesus ‘died spiritually’ (JDS) is important because of the influence of these men, not least on Pentecostalism. JDS originated with Kenyon, and has been taught in the Word-faith movement by Hagin and Copeland, despite much criticism. It incorporates three elements: in this death, Jesus was separated from God; partook of a satanic nature; and was Satan’s prey.This theological appraisal takes research far further than previous works, both in method and in scope. It concludes that adoption of JDS by Pentecostalism would be damaging in several respects, and thus draw the latter away from its moorings in traditional Christianity. Pentecostals and others are advised to reject the bulk of this teaching.
