No Innocent Affair by Edward F. Mrkvicka Jr. with Kelly Helen Mrkvicka takes a look at the plague of the 21st century and one of the main contributors to the destruction of the American family-the sin of Adultery. Being a lay minister and a man who has studied the Word for many years, the author, Edward F. Mrkvicka Jr., gives not his opinion, but gives the absolute truth of God’s Word through an extensive categorical list of scripture therefore laying first a biblical foundation. Then by clearly stating first God’s view and comparing it with Society’s view, the author lays bare the truth about adultery and the devastating consequences of adultery, not only to the person who commits the sin, but to others we love in our life who are the innocent victims of this pervasive ripple effect sin that is so prevalent in our society.
Most do no realize the far-reaching consequences of the sin of adultery in their lives, nor the cost and the author makes no mistake that there is no such thing as ‘an innocent affair’. This book is an eye opener for most and highly recommended for anyone either contemplating an adulterous affair or for those who may have been entangled in an adulterous affair. The author shows the way out with some of most practical teachings culminated from the infallible Word of God to bring others out of their sin and into the light of the Lord.
Openly, but lovingly, the author shares the unavoidable, yet dire consequences of adultery and reveals that not only does it affect our lives spiritually and physically, but the sin has a ripple effect that goes on to “… virtually every innocent person in our lives” (p.11). The consequences are so monumental, that no one in their right mind “armed” with the truth of God’s Word would commit adultery, but sadly, the author concedes from a recent survey, “…that over 88 percent of Americans believe adultery is wrong. Yet 77 percent of marriages involve at least one adultery.” This alarming fact in our society today is bringing many to the wide-path of destruction. Quite simply put, it is choosing death over life.
Edward Mrkvicka’s true desire is two-fold, first for all those that may be contemplating adultery to know the absolute truth of God’s Word and the dire consequences and for those that are in an adulterous affair or have been in the past that they would also realize the devastating consequences and that the truth would bring true repentance in their life. Lastly, Mrkvicka’s desire is that all would receive eternal life in Jesus Christ. Again, the author does not give his opinion, but God’s view and His Holy Word. This book offers no excuses, nor apologies, but gives the truth of the Word of God. This book is truly a blessing to the body of Christ and to all who read it.
This subject is not an easy subject to be discussed, nor is it very popular, but with so many on the path to destruction in our society it is a must read for anyone entangled in or contemplating adultery. This fascinating and well-written book exposes the truth and deception in the sin of adultery and brings forth light to the subject. Thankfully, the author ends that there is hope and states, “God can save us” (p.11). For there is one hope, and that one hope is the forgiveness of sins through Jesus Christ. Come, read, know the truth and be set free.

This is one of the most interesting books that I have ever read. It is filled with volumes of knowledge about such topics as Divinity, Papacy, Saints, Royalty, Lineage, Decedents, Ancestry, Doctrine, Scripture Leviticus Lines, The Five Generations of God, Priests, Prophets, Kings, Orders, Apostles, history and much, much more. Literally, there is no way to make mention of all the topics in this book review.
Author Brian D. Starr has chronicled some of history’s most historical times shedding light on many topics that the average Christian is not aware of. Truly a well written book that allows the reader to explore and understand, that which is not found in your local church’s teachings.
From The Mysteries of The Priest and The Knight, The Five Generations of God, The Times of The Crucifixion and Ministry of The Lord, The Times of King David, The Ancient Lines of Zeus, The Ancient Lines of God to The Apostles Guardianship, be prepared to be taken through the mysteries of the ages as you explore the pages on this book.
With various charts that chronicle genealogy coupled with the fact that the book is written in a simple format, the reader will find the subjects written easy to follow.
This read is highly educational, thought provoking and challenges the reader to dig deeper into what is written for more in depth studies.

David Hart is one of NASA’s brightest and best. Brilliant, ambitious, and driven would describe this young NASA “superstar” physicist. David, being the perfect fit for a Top Secret Classified Military project dubbed Project 13-03, was up for the challenges to come.
The highly classified position topped the list as one of NASA’s Top Classified Military projects. The task set before the team, assembled and headed by 28-year NASA veteran, Jesse Black, was to develop something man has only dreamed of. New dimensions of uncharted technology, that would allow human beings to travel through time. David would play a major role on the management team of this highly esteemed project, as David was about to embark on a mission of a lifetime!
After becoming fully engulfed in the project, the team realized something-Houston, we’ve got a problem- who would be the first person to travel back in time? The problem was so simple; if it had been the proverbial snake it would have bitten them. This insurmountable task turned Project 13-03 into one of NASA’s biggest possible blunders. This project, now almost complete at a hefty price tag of 500 million, the huge 17 ton Hercules and the Catapult which would make time travel possible was complete, except that there was no one to operate this huge piece of man-made technology.
Soon, the project was tagged “Project Monkey-Business”, as monkeys were the only available intelligent being to send into the black hole of time travel and to operate the capsule for a safe return. Yet David’s expectations were higher than that. David’s drive, ambition and desires demanded more.
Let Author, Tom Thiele, transport you back in time with this inspiring and captivating technological, sci-fi adventure of a lifetime! Be prepared to not be able to put this book down, as the author, reveals the ‘discovery in the desert’, something truly remarkable and life changing. This novel is an urgent, must read for our time. A prophetic call to the people and nations, and all nations around the world to Wake Up!
Intriguing, riveting and engaging, this novel is explosive and bold. Author, Tom Thiele will take you on an adventure of a lifetime that will rock your soul and stir you OUT of complacency. Be advised, this novel, will transform your life in the process. As David finds out, he is chosen for a very special, specific task that ‘will shake the nations’.

A movie in the making, "God’s Avenger Michael, The Imprecatory Angel" written by Daniel John Gura is a exciting, gripping and fascinating read. This pro-life Christian fiction novel will touch your heart and cause you to ponder one of today's most controversial and profound issues - the lives of the unborn. A fiction novel that is interwoven with life, truth and realities of monumental proportion.
The author's writing style will keep you hanging on the edge of your seat coupled with an expectancy of what the next page, character or chapter will bring. There are no idle sections to be found in this book which flows from one page to the next. You will not be able to put the book down as each situation unfolds and the next is birthed. The book is captivating and engaging as the author portrays the righteousness of God being inflicted upon the evil and wickedness of mankind through this Imprecatory Angel, Michael.
Each character comes to life in this fast paced novel as the author describes each scene with real intensity and real-life drama. As each situation unfolds, the book reads like an action movie on paper. The author makes you feel as if you are right there with the characters as they try to unravel the unfolding mysteries of the disasters happening around them. From rumors to hypotheticals, something is unfolding beyond the natural with the supernatural taking the forefront.
Just as Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego were spared in Old Testament times with all unharmed 'without even the smell of smoke' on their clothing or a scratch on their persons. Just like the plagues of Moses that were unleashed on Egypt in biblical times, this book has supernatural, righteous judgement and justice woven all through the mesmerizing pages, all the while bringing praise and glory to God.
This is a timely and important piece of work addressing one of today's most controversial issues - saving the lives of the unborn. After reading this book, one must come to the conclusion of considering the life of the unborn to be to monumental to just sit down and remain silent. This pro-life novel reveals God's justice that is magnificent in scope, supernatural in nature and just as evil was destroyed back in Old Testament times, the author reveals, God still hears the imprecatory prayers of his Saints and answers prayers with a righteous cause. Good triumphs over evil in this magnificently written novel, while lives are forever changed in the process.
A highly recommended book not just because of the cause, but because it is superbly written from the opening page to the closing page. As was stated in the opening sentence of this review, "God's Avenger Michael, The Imprecatory Angel" is a movie in the making.
