The Apostle S Fury

alvin produced commentaries on most of the books of the Bible. His commentaries cover the larger part of the Old Testament, and all of the new excepting Second and Third John and the Apocalypse. His commentaries and lectures stand in the front rank of Biblical interpretation. The present commentary, necessarily partaking of the character of the Book which it is designed to illustrate, is more historical than doctrinal; and hence does not contain so much profound theological discussion as some of Calvin's other Commentaries. The leading topic is the progress of the Gospel under the inspired teachers to whom its first propagation was entrusted, and, in immediate connection with this, the Constitution of the Apostolic Church, and the privileges enjoyed by its members. To this latter point the attention of the religious world is now more especially directed; and whatever be the views entertained with regard to it by any reader into whose hands this Commentary may fall, if he feels aright, he will not think that his study of the controversy is complete until he has made himself acquainted with what has been said upon it by such a man as Calvin. This edition contains the commentaries on Acts 1 - 13.

Apprehensive, Katie scanned the surrounding woods, the back of her neck tingling. Something was there. Watching. I see you, bitch. Katherine Callahan's life has been anything but ordinary. Clinically dead at age six, the accident that briefly stole her breath also gave her something in return... the ability to see the dead. Although terrified at first, Katie learned to navigate the ups and downs of her gift while keeping her ghostly visions a secret to all but a few. Now an adult, she uses her special ability and her forensic expertise to give a name to the nameless. When human remains are uncovered in the mountains of Virginia, Katie and her cadaver dog, Chance, are pulled into the investigation. But what starts out as a routine case turns into a spine-chilling game of cat and mouse as, one by one, Katie's loved ones become the targets of a madman's fantasies. Together, with the handsome but brooding FBI agent Jake Devereaux, Katie finds herself in a race against the clock to unmask a killer before he can land his ultimate prize-Katie Callahan herself. He calls himself the Apostle. And he's closer than you think.
