Dei Verbum. One of the principle documents of the Second Vatican Council, Dei Verbum was promulgated by Pope Paul VI on November 18, 1965. The document Dei Verbum is one of the most authoritative and important documents of the Council. Its purpose is to spell out the Churchs understanding of the nature of revelation, that is, the process whereby God communicates with human beings.

This understanding is placed within the larger context of the Church's understanding of revelation itself. Here the document speaks not of revelation about God, but the revelation of God. God communicates his very self t..

Marriage failure, divorce and remarriage have become ingrained features of western society and affect every person and every marriage. Andrew Cornes draws upon his profound Bible knowledge and wide pastoral experience to tackle 99 Questions About Divorce & Remarriage. They include: -When can it be right for a Christian to separate? -Does God permit me to remarry? -How does God view my second marriage? -How can I learn to forgive? Christ can support marriages that have almost collapsed.

This book is a popular version of the author’s Divorce and Remarriage, which received wide praise: ‘Indispensable reading for everybody who is anxious to develop a Christian mind on these topics.
