In this wonderful treatment on Exodus 14:13, “…stand still…,” John Brinsley teaches us to “stand.” This word in the mouth of a soldier is a word of command. First, he shows that Christians are to hold their tongues still, not murmuring. Secondly, keep their hearts still. Thirdly, God would have Christians to hold their feet still as well. In the fear of God, Christians are to learn what it means to stand still in the sight of God. Then, once they learn what it means to stand still, they should be “up and doing” for Christ. Doing what they can for the furtherance of the great work of reformation. Every Christian is a reforming Christian beginning at home; they are reforming their own hearts, lives, and families. Then they ought to do what they can for the reforming of others. This is not a scan or facsimile, has been updated in modern English for easy reading and has an active table of contents for electronic versions.
Stand Still...Savage Time
A distant storm is approaching...the wind pulls loose Jacob's black hair from its leather binding, whips it wildly around his face as he kneels by his wife's grave... But in the blink of an eye, the cemetery vanishes, and his surroundings appear to look as they had hundreds of years ago... As in slow motion, he watches in terror as the flowers he placed on the cold wet earth of the grave, now rest on cold flesh! With trembling hands that no longer ache with age, he touches what cannot be reality--a naked, young woman tortured and staked to the ground. She moans... His life is about to begin...
Stars Don't Stand Still in the Sky
Music industry insiders on the nature of fame Our cultural darlings make music; we make them mythic. Every musical genre begets a community of listeners, performers, and critics, and quite often those categories are blurred. From the principled punk refusal of celebrity to hip-hop's celebration of its power, the music world is self-obsessed. Stars Don't Stand Still in the Sky assembles scholars, music writers, industry workers, and musicians, who offer a range of opinions and experience of the nature of fame. The collection focuses on commerce, the crowd, performance and image, history and memory, and romance. Contributors discuss black women icons, love-songs, the legacy of the blues, the image of the tortured rock star, MTV, the politics of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, the joy of line-dancing, and more. The contributors are James Bernard, Anthony DeCurtis, Katherine Dieckmann, Chuck Eddy, Paul Gilroy, Daniel Glass, Lawrence Grossberg, Jessica Hagedorn, Kathleen Hanna, James Hannaham, Dave Hickey, Jon Langford, Greil Marcus, Angela McRobbie, Paul D. Miller (a.k.a. DJ Spooky), Barbara O'Dair, Ann Powers, Toshi Reagon, Simon Reynolds, Robert Santelli, Jon Savage, Danyel Smith, Arlene Stein, Deena Weinstein, and Ellen Willis.
