e-artnow presents to you this meticulously edited George Muller collection. "The word of God alone is our standard of judgment in spiritual things… the Holy Spirit alone can teach us about our state by nature, show us the need of a Saviour, enable us to believe in Christ, explain to us the Scriptures, help us in preaching, etc. The first evening that I shut myself into my room, to give myself to prayer and meditation over the Scriptures, I learned more in a few hours than I had done during a period of several months previously. But the particular difference was, that I received real strength for my soul in doing so." George Muller (1805-1898) was a Christian evangelist and the director of the Ashley Down orphanage in Bristol, England. He cared for 10,024 orphans during his lifetime, and provided educational opportunities for the orphans to the point that he was even accused by some of raising the poor above their natural station in British life. He established 117 schools which offered Christian education to more than 120,000. The theology that guided George Muller's work was shaped by an experience in his middle twenties when he «came to prize the Bible alone as his standard of judgement». Muller wrote frequently about the stewardship of money and the non-reliance on earthly riches, and how God would bless the man who kept to these principles, and felt that laying his own experiences bare would prove the truth of his claims. His personal income, from unsolicited gifts (he refused any kind of salary) rose from ?151 in 1831 to more than ?2,000 in 1870. However, he retained only around ?300 a year for himself and his family, the rest he gave away. Muller's faith in God strengthened day by day and he spent hours in daily prayer and Bible reading. Content: Paths to Power The Pursuit of God The Divine Conquest How to be Filled with the Holy Spirit The Root of the Righteous The Knowledge of the Holy

Во второй из своих книг о «Системе РФ» Глеб Павловский продолжает исследовать российское государственное поведение. На этот раз автор применяет к Российской Федерации метод американского стратега Джорджа Кеннана.

Автор книги оценивает стратегический опыт, приобретенный Россией после войны 2014 года (которой посвящена первая книга). Считая Систему РФ уникальным государственным образованием, автор исследует ее поведение в свете нового опыта. Эта книга – путеводитель по российскому стратегическому поведению для «чайников».
