    The Christian church has, for centuries, debated over man's salvation. The big question is this: Does God choose some for heaven and others for hell or does man choose or reject God by virtue of his freewill? While this debate rages, some theologians who subscribe to Molinism, offer an attractive solution to quench the fire from this raging debate. Read more to understand this situation better...

    Why do so many people on this planet believe in a divine being? Is it even sensible to believe in one? With increasing progression in human knowledge of the natural world around, there seems little reason to believe in a divine being. With this, the pressure increases on both the agnostic and Christian to abandon their search for the answer. Yet on the other front, the Christian also begins to face the rise of old enemies that once plagued Christian orthodoxy. Similar to its predecessor, this book and its compilation of themed articles addresses the issues in the logic, philosophy and thoughts of Christianity from a layperson point of view. Some of these articles serve to expand and clarify the points raised in its predecessor, and some on completely new topics. Yet unlike the predecessor, this book focuses more on the doctrine and basis of Orthodox Christian beliefs and how Christians can apply them to everyday life through articles that are once again, academic, reflective, and argumentative. Just like 'A Practical Guide to the Logic, Philosophy, and Thoughts of Christianity', this book is the result of a single individual's search for God. It promises to be challenging and thought provoking for the genuinely open-minded and interested. Even so, the articles are at best 'arm-chair theology' and are therefore meant to be easily understood by any interested agnostic and Christian with a slow yet provocative push into the basis of Christianity and her doctrines.

    Trapped in a surreal world, a writer finds their life eerily mirroring the events of a story they wrote about alternate realities. Initially bewildered and horrified, they slowly come to accept this new reality, but are left with a gnawing uncertainty about what happens when they reach the end of their own tale. Struggling to escape the predetermined script, they discover the limitations of free will and the fear of the unknown as they navigate through a life that is both familiar and strange.

    My novel deals with the problem of predestination, trying to show what might happen to someone that has the chance to predict his future. The leading actor, Andrew, after having moved back to his parents' home, with his wife Phoebe, finds a little red diary in the office where his father used to work. This discovery, apparently harmless, will struck his life completely: by reading its content, he discovers that one of the stories is a prediction of his death. The finding changes not only Andrew's life, since he is forced to challenge his preordained destiny, but also his marriage and his relationship with Finn, the closest friend of the two of them. However, only at the end, the meaning of the diary will be revealed. The idea behind my novel is to challenge the reader to think what he would do knowing that his fate has already been written on a book, from the beginning to the end. Would he dare to read everything? Would he be able to handle reading about the last day of his life? Andrew is brave enough to do so: but everything come with a price.

    In the City, it is widely known that free will does not exist. Instead, there is the Compound: a mysterious place where the Writers dictate the lives, loves and losses of everyone in the City. Little is known about them, except that they never enter or leave the Compound, and that they have been there for longer than living memory can recall. Penelope Ingeld was destined from birth to be a side character, living in the shadow of designated protagonist (and her best friend) Lillian. What she didn't bargain for is Lillian dying before their story had even begun. Whether at the hands of a rogue Writer, a twist in the plot or - the simplest, yet most groundbreaking explanation - a demonstration that the Writers cannot control everything, the fact remains that Lillian is dead. And now Penelope must step into her shoes, unsure whether her actions are truly her own even as she attempts to discover the truth behind the Writers and the City. However, the discoveries she makes about herself and her world are something she never could have imagined...

    What will hopefully be a better rendition of Meta's Tale, which has needed a reboot for some time now. Updates will most likely be sparse, as the series in Project Genesis that kinda derailed Meta's Tale (completely my fault) needs to be finished before I can actually know what facts go where in some of the later chapters. Also, I hope to have longer chapters, considering some of the original's, now three years old, were under 1000 words. Very sad. No wonder it had so many, eh?

    Predestination. What's supposed to happen has always been happening and will continue to happen no matter how many times you repeat the same time period. But not always does it make sense. Some events take place without any noticeable impacts in the surrounding. But take place, they certainly will. However small the event is, it cannot be bypassed. That's the rule of Predestination.

    In the Beforelife, before the souls were born, they were briefed about how their lives would turn out. If they deemed their happiness would outweigh the pain they would endure in their lives, they would be born. If they refused the proposal, they would be sent to roam mindlessly over the Neitherworld until their names were called again. This was the Fate of Grace Adler, and other souls she saw in the Beforelife. - TW: mentions of violence and torture, rape and prostitution, war, suicidal thoughts.

    In this book we will discuss if man truly have the final choice to Choose God (Yahuah) or reject him and if not are they still truly responsible unto God for their sins and eternal damnation that they will incur on themselves for Rejecting Christ and if so is God guilty. This book is written in both English and Spanish. Opción estándar (la más común): Título del libro Aquí tienes la traducción del título o pregunta central de tu libro: ​"¿Tiene el hombre la elección definitiva al elegir a Jesucristo?" Aquí tienes la traducción al español, manteniendo el tono formal y teológico adecuado para la introducción de un libro: ​"En este libro discutiremos si el hombre realmente tiene la decisión final de elegir a Dios (Yahuah) o rechazarlo y, de no ser así, si sigue siendo verdaderamente responsable ante Dios por sus pecados y por la condenación eterna en la que incurrirá por rechazar a Cristo; y si es así, si Dios es culpable."
