EASTERN ROMAN EMPIRE


Valens - Roman Emperor
364-378 A.D.

Bronze Nummus

Obverse:  Diademed, draped and
cuirassed bust right.

Reverse: Valens dragging captive right, holding labarum tipped with a Chi-Rho,
branch.

The labarum was a vexillum (military
standard) that displayed the "Chi-Rho" symbol ☧, a christogram formed from the
first two Greek letters of the word "Christ"- Chi (χ) and Rho (ρ). It was first
used by the Roman emperor Constantine I. Since the vexillum consisted of a flag
suspended from the crossbar of a cross, it was ideally suited to symbolize the
crucifixion of Christ.

The Chi Rho is one of the earliest forms of
christogram, and is used by some Christians. It is formed by superimposing the
first two (capital) letters chi and rho (ΧΡ) of the Greek word "ΧΡΙΣΤΟΣ" =
KRistos = Christ in such a way to produce the monogram. Although not technically
a Christian cross, the Chi-Rho invokes the authority of Jesus, as well as
symbolising his status as the Christ.



The Chi-Rho symbol was also used by pagan Greek scribes to mark, in the margin,
a particularly valuable or relevant passage; the combined letters Chi and Rho
standing for chrēston, meaning "good." Some coins of Ptolemy III Euergetes (r.
246-222 BC) were marked with a Chi-Rho.The Chi-Rho symbol was used by the Roman
emperor Constantine I (r. 306-337) as part of a military standard (vexillum),
Constantine's standard was known as the Labarum





Valens - Roman Emperor: 364-378 A.D.

Ruling in the West: Valentinian I (364-375), Gratian (367-383), and Valentinian
II (375-392)



| Brother of Valentinian I | Uncle of Gratian, Valentinian II and Galla (wife of
Theodosius I) |



Flavius Julius Valens (Latin: FLAVIUS IVLIVS VALENS AVGVSTVS; 328 - 9 August
378) was Roman Emperor (364-378), after he was given the Eastern part of the
empire by his brother Valentinian I. Valens, sometimes known as the Last True
Roman, was defeated and killed in the Battle of Adrianople, which marked the
beginning of the fall of the Western Roman Empire.

Awesome!
Format: Kindle
I love this book. I just completed it and now I'm ready it again with my wife. I love that it is very clear that no matter how old you are, God has a plan for you until He brings you home. I would recommend this book to everyone but especially those ages 50 and above. It was a blessing not only for how I will live the rest of my life here on earth but also helping me to understand better and appreciate more my eternal future. I have already and will continue to recommend this book to many I come in contact with and my clients.

Aging does not necessarily lead to retirement from serving God. Every Day is a new opportunity.
Format: Kindle
In our present world, the Church is experiencing a mega-change approach in how it members view the Bible, morality, service to God and man, prayer, and salvation itself. We all struggle with what lies in the future for us, how do we worship, what do we do with our spiritual gifts, and should we modify our relationship with God to fit comfortably with modern times and processes? It is becoming more acceptable within the Church to practice a reduced moral ethic or code, condone deviancy, accept what was unacceptable once and seek satisfaction, stimulation, and the satiation for spiritual thirst and hunger with theatrical, entertainment, grandiose, and electronic boosting of the Word of God. So much feel good, promises of wealth and health to those who follow the promises of so many televangelists, get rich quick preachers, and give that you might get schemes offer that which simply is not offered in Scripture. Doctor Jeremiah offers sound, Bible-based direction for growing spiritually in this troubled, deceiving world. God is not finished, we are not finished, the Gospel is more than sufficient for the times we live in. If we are bored, if we slumber, if we have become dull, acceptant of sin, and are no longer interested in being light to a dark world, read this book. Perhaps it is time to confess our sins and be filled once again with the Holy Spirit. Read Doctor Jeremiah's words and let them speak to your hungry soul.

Dr. Jeremiah can't be beat
Format: Hardcover
Dr. Jeremiah is always solid on the Bible. Our small group chose to use this as a study tool. Some were pleased some were perplexed. It seemed that during the pandemic his publisher told Dr. Jeremiah he had to get a book out so he put this together. It seemed on the lame side. As we went along in it, it became clear that, in our opinion, he was directing this more at the non-Christian or brand new Christian. Mature Christians may find lacking at least at first, about half way through it picks up depth and relies more heavily on Biblical truth. He uses Christians and non-Christians in his "real life" examples and some times you're not sure if they are Christian, did they become Christian as a result of their experience? This is a great book for the right person.
