What just happened to me-and why? Are you of the opinion that everything that happens to you in life, even the evil, somehow comes from God? Are you ready to examine this in the light of Jesus' practices and teachings? Schizophrenic God? uncovers the myth of extreme sovereignty and invites you into a deeper biblical understanding of God's nature and His sovereign will. Have you ever wondered: * Why does a good and loving God allow evil? * Is God really sovereign if He doesn't control all events? * Does God's will for your life automatically come to pass? * How does God's sovereignty and human responsibility come together? * Are there variables that can hinder God's will for your life? The answers to these questions and many others are revealed in this book, which compares false traditional beliefs with Jesus' worldview--removing confusion that blocks God's will for your life. Schizophrenic God? is a close look at fate and free will. Has God predetermined everything that happens in your life, or do your own free-will decisions help determine your destiny? You will be challenged to rethink the assumptions you have made about God, which brings comfort and empowerment in the truths of a good God, human choice, and the prayer of faith that changes things. Rest assured--you do not serve a schizophrenic Father.

Psychosis has taken over. God's brain is gone. There is no cure. There is only God. There is only us. The Psychosis of God is about exploring the divine through the mentally ill amongst us. The image of our creator is the only tool we have for liberating God. The prison of our normative expectations steals our capacity for divine connection. Wake up! The mentally ill God is here to set the captives free. Think right! Perfection is now found in defection. Look out! Crazy is the only way out of this world alive.

An individual's mind, body, and soul can suffer many scars throughout their journey. At times, these wounds occur because we don't have divine truth to battle back the devil's lies. Author Lucien Pilon has suffered from schizophrenia and experienced auditory hallucinations. As such, he came to rely on the Holy Spirit to destroy the lies he heard time and time again. An individual's testimony can bring light to another's darkness: knowledge is power! It is written that God's creations perish because they don't have the wisdom and understanding to aid them on their journey to the everlasting. Pilon fought back the darkness with God's Word, the Holy Spirit, and his love for life as he gradually climbed the spiritual mountains God laid before him. Along the way, God showed him his worth even in sickness. He decided to share his journey so that those who read it can humbly grow to become God's glory, carrying the keys to Heaven and helping to heal and free others from the captivity of sin, empowered by God's wisdom, light, and love through the Lord Jesus Christ. Only the fool says, "There is no God." About the Author: Lucien R.J. Pilon is an artist who recently received his Bachelor of Fine Arts. The youngest of five boys, he was born and raised in Southwestern Ontario. This book shares his personal journey with schizophrenia and is a testimony of God's faithfulness.

Simonetta chronicles her experiences of caring for a son with schizophrenia, along with all the struggles, questions, and fervent prayer that went with it. But this isn't one person's story. She has provided information and wisdom from psychiatrists, pastors, parents, and people who successfully live with schizophrenia, uncovering the gospel in each situation and sharing hard-won insights on how to care and advocate for those we love.

SPIRITUAL Schizophrenia Why Do Some Christi ans Live like Hell? Choiceslife is a myriad of them. God has set before us life and death, blessing and cursing. Th e choices we make in life will determine which of these will dominate our destiny. Th ere are spiritual laws that control our universe- the law of the spirit of life in Christ Jesus and the law of sin and death. What we decide to do with these laws will determine to a large degree what kind of eff ect they will have on us. Spiritual schizophrenia is a struggle that most Christians face-choosing between a spiritual mind or a carnal mind-deciding everyday what law they choose to see operate in their life.

You intend to honour and glorify God, but very often end up in denigrating and insulting God. Your faith says that God is totally just and upright, but you try to bribe God by offering all sorts of gifts. Your faith says that God knows everything including the past, the present and the future and even your innermost secret thoughts and desires and what is best for a person, yet you request God what He should do, when, where and how. Your faith says that God is absolute love, yet you think that whatever that happen in your life and the world like wars, accidents, natural calamities, terrorism, communal violence, sickness, murder and rape happen according to some mysterious plan of God. Your faith says that God is a totally free and impartial judge and umpire, but you try to influence and manipulate Him by your prayers, vows, pilgrimages and penances. Your faith says that God is absolutely compassionate and merciful, and yet you think that God may punish you and take revenge on you if you do not pray for His help. Your faith says that God is an all-perfect personality who lacks nothing, but some of your faith-practices depict God as an egoistic and insecure person who constantly seeks praise, gratitude, adoration and glorification from believers.
