In Hope of Eternal Life Looking for the happy hope and appearing of the glory of the great God and of our Savior Jesus Christ.; thou shalt not eat of it: thou shalt surely die. Ye shall not surely die: the Father sent the Son to be the Savior of the world. this man, after he had offered one sacrifice for sins forever, sat down on the right hand of God; This Jesus hath God raised up, God hath made that same Jesus, both Lord and Christ. Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him; that day shall not be present, except there first comes a departure, But of the times and the seasons, brethren, ye have no need that I write unto you. For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night. then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be. Satan is defeated, the White Throne judgments, a new heaven and a new earth, Behold I make all things new.

August 12, 2018 Greetings, God bless you and welcome to Family Camp 2018! This week will be an exciting time to learn and grow in God’s Word as we consider the subject of our great hope. The theme of our camp is: “In Hope of Eternal Life” When the Apostle Paul wrote to Titus, his brother in Christ who had been left on the island of Crete for the purpose of setting the things of the Church in order, he opened his letter this way: Titus 1:1-2 (WT) 1 Paul, a servant of God and an apostle of Jesus Christ for the believing of God’s chosen ones and the knowledge [acknowledgement] of the truth, which is according to godliness 2 in hope of eternal life, which God, Who does not lie, promised before the times of the ages. Paul’s ministry as a servant and an apostle was for the believing and acknowledgement of the truth; truth, that is according to godliness “in hope of eternal life.” The hope spoken of here is the very hope that had been promised before the ages, by God, Who does not lie. The subject of the end times and the hope of the Christian is covered throughout God’s Word. It was spoken of by God’s apostles and prophets, and by His Son, our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ - and why not? It is the focus of the life that God desires for all people. Our hope is more than just a future event. It is an attitude of heart as we wait patiently for the return of our Lord and the life to come. This camp is where we need to be. There may be times when the pressures of life weigh heavily on our lives, but during this week, let’s set aside every weight and impediment of life. Let’s learn about, and then focus on the promise that we have received: we have the hope of eternal life. Then, when we return home, we’ll have something to tells others, unless … God bless you, Your Family Camp Teachers Contents God Has Promised Hope – Shawn Weir ........................................................................................................ 1 The Original Lie – Peter Blake ....................................................................................................................... 5 The Justice of Christ's Death – Jim Nichols Sr. ............................................................................................ 15 The Resurrection of Jesus Christ– Sam Pittenger ....................................................................................... 21 Day of Christ – Peter Blake.......................................................................................................................... 23 The Day of the LORD (Considering the Times and the Seasons) – Daniel Hyder ........................................ 33 Applicable HOPE – Imperatives with Patient and Sober Waiting – Daniel Hyder ...................................... 39 The Day of the Lord: Part 1 – The Period of Lawlessness – Jim Drinks Sr. .................................................. 49 The Day of the Lord: Part 2 – The Thousand Year Reign – Jim Drinks Sr. ................................................... 61 Inheritance, Rewards, and Crowns, All by Grace – Jim Nichols Sr. ............................................................. 79 The Final Victory – Ray Myers ..................................................................................................................... 85 The New Heaven and Earth - Ray Myers .................................................................................................... 99 Not Ashamed at His Coming– Sam Pittenger............................................................................................ 109 Eyes on Eternity – Shawn Weir ................................................................................................................. 111 Table 1 - Events from the Day of Pentecost until the New Heaven and Earth ......................................... 117 Appendix 1 Death and Hell – Shawn Weir ................................................................................................ 125 Appendix 2 The Day of Christ – Peter Blake .............................................................................................. 141 Appendix 3 Gathering of the Body of Christ and the Day of the Lord – Peter Blake ............................. 147 Appendix 4 Different Gatherings Associated with his Return – Peter Blake ............................................. 151 Appendix 5 Times, Themes, and Topics of the Book of Revelation – Jim Drinks III ................................... 167 Appendix 6 The Throne of God – Ray Myers ............................................................................................. 187 Appendix 7 Books are Opened – Ray Myers ............................................................................................. 195 Appendix 8 The Three Heavens and Three Earths – Ray Myers ............................................................... 199 Appendix 9 The Alpha and Omega – Ray Myers ....................................................................................... 205 Appendix 10 The Tree of Life and the Water of Life – Ray Myers ............................................................. 207 God Has Promised Hope – Shawn Weir Psalm 146:5 - 6 5 Happy is he that hath the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope is in the LORD his God: 6 Which made heaven, and earth, the sea, and all that therein is: which keepeth truth for ever • Hope is not an event or a series of events, but a blessed assurance of heart that we can have now. • We can be happy now because our hope is in the God Who keeps truth forever.

Basic to any valid definition is the concept of persuasion. The descrip­ tion of persuasive techniques and evaluation of their effectiveness is the province of rhetorical criticism. Drama is, in part at least, a rhe­ torical enterprise. Chapter I of this study establishes a theoretical basis for the rhetorical analysis of drama. The central chapters con­ sider Eugene O'Neill's Strange Interlude in light of the rhetorical im­ plications of intent, content, and form. Chapter II deals principally with O'Neill's status as a rhetor. It asks, what are the evidences of a rhetorical purpose in his life and plays? Why is Strange Interlude an especially significant example of O'Neill's rhetoric? The intellectual content of Strange Interlude is the matter of Chapter III. What ideas does the play contain? To what extent is the play a transcript of con­ temporary thought? Could it have potentially influenced the times? Chapter IV is concerned with the specific manner in which Strange Interlude was used as a vehicle for the ideas.

    ROBERT E. SHERWOOD: PLAYWRIGHT AND POLITICAL ARCHITECT ———— THEATER, PROPAGANDA, AND THE SHAPING OF POLITICS THROUGH ART Lily Pipkin E369H Special Honors in the Department of English Submitted to Fulfill Plan II Honors Program Thesis Requirement The University of Texas at Austin 4 May 2017 ________________________________ Dr. James Loehlin Department of English Supervising Professor ________________________________ Dr. Michael Stoff Department of History Second Reader Pipkin !i Abstract Author: Lily Pipkin Title: Robert E. Sherwood, Playwright and Political Architect: Theater, Propaganda, and the Shaping of Politics through Art Supervising Professors: Dr. James Loehlin, Dr. Michael B. Stoff Robert Sherwood’s politicized writing focuses on the American reaction to war in Europe and the rise of European political movements like Communism and Fascism in a time when most Americans felt deeply isolationist and unconcerned with global events. Most of the criticism available on Sherwood approaches his work in terms of his political opinion shifting from pacifism to interventionism. Instead, I take a revisionist stance against these critics in order to examine how the consistencies in his rhetoric shape both his plays and his speechwriting for President Roosevelt during World War II. Looking at the attempts of a playwright to influence public political beliefs helps define the American position on the eve of war and the function that art and theater play in crafting public opinion, particularly in this period of the twentieth century. I argue that despite the contradictory political messages across Sherwood’s career, underneath the propaganda is an appeal to American optimism and human connection that goes unnoticed by theater scholars today.

A Letter from the President Fall 2008 Dear Subscriber, This year there is an important change in our annual printed catalogue. We have decided to discontinue including full descriptions of all the plays we represent, which now number over 3,300, and instead limit full descriptions to our new acquisitions. Our new catalogue format will still contain listings of all our titles and authors, but to view descriptions of all of our plays you only have to visit our website at www.dramatists.com. We decided to make this change because less than two percent of the thousands of applications we receive each year now arrive via mail or fax. We receive an overwhelming 98 percent of applications through the online forms found on our website. We are extremely pleased about this development, as we believe ours is the best website of its kind on the Internet, and it has long been our goal to make the application process as efficient and easy as possible for you. On the website the majority of applications are approved and licensed within minutes. This translates to an enormous savings of time and money for everyone, and it also saves on paper, helping us to reduce our environmental footprint.
