The Aztecs are best known for eating chocolate, killing boatloads of people in sacrifice to their heathen gods and eventually getting beaten by the Spaniards. They are known by most as a warlike, barbaric race, mostly due to the incredible amount of people they killed. However, contrary to popular belief, they were not without culture.
He doesn’t appear very often in fiction, but in these books – by authors ranging from Fyodor Dostoevsky to John Updike – his impact is almighty

You may be familiar with the 2 Cor. 5:8 Scripture where Paul is stating the reality of what death means for us as Christians and that is what we want to dig into today. What does 'absent from the body present with the Lord' mean for you? There are three realities that I want you to understand from this verse and the verses surrounding it which will make this truth even more wonderful for you.

"The Ancient of Days," by William Blake (1794) DIMENSIONS • 9" x 12" (Image: 7.5" x 10.44") • 12" x 16" (Image: 10" x 14") • 16" x 20" (Image: 12.19" x 17") • 20" x 30" (Image: 16" x 22.31") • 24" x 36" (Image: 19" x 26.5") Archival Inkjet on Fine Art Paper Smooth Surface - Matte Finish - Inset Borders ABOUT THE ARTWORK ----------------------------- Published as the frontispiece for "Europe: a Prophecy," "The Ancient of Days" depicts Urizen—in Blake's personal mythology, the embodiment of conventional law and reason—separating light and darkness, his outstretched hand holding a compass to the void. From a strictly Christian point of view, it evokes the passage in Proverbs 7:27, "when he set a compass upon the face of the earth." A favorite image of Blake's, it is said to have been based upon one of the many religious visions that he experienced throughout his life. ART-CENTRIC DESIGN ----------------------------- Vintage art is not standardized. The original works are usually too long, or too short, to neatly fill a store-bought frame. Most shops arbitrarily crop the artwork to match, leading to claustrophobic prints with missing or partial elements. These modifications — sometimes trivial, sometimes ludicrous — are not always shown in the product photos. We believe that the purpose of art is not to fill a frame; it is the purpose of a frame to showcase the art. Our prints have inset borders that make up any differences in proportion between the artwork and a standard frame, so that you can experience the art as the artist intended. They look sharp in beveled mats, may be float mounted, or inserted directly into standard frames; the borders providing a mat-like accent around the image. There are many styles from which to choose. Framing is a fun, creative process that enhances the artwork and livens your space for years to come. Should you like any advice, feel free to reach out. CUSTOMIZATION AND IMAGE REQUESTS ----------------------------- We are happy to customize our prints to fit your frame. Borderless prints may require the artwork to be cropped to fit a new aspect ratio. In such cases, we will provide a mockup to ensure that the final product meets with your approval. If you’re looking for an artwork that is not in our catalog, feel free to ask if we can provide it. We will print any public domain or openly licensed image that is available in high resolution. MUSEUM QUALITY ----------------------------- Giclée process prints are the gold standard in fine art reproduction. We use a matte finish, cotton fiber paper to maximize detail while eliminating glare. Our prints display a wide color gamut, deep blacks and beautiful tonal transitions. Produced using only archival materials, they will not fade or yellow, but maintain their original quality for as long as you own them. HANDMADE DECLARATION ----------------------------- To assure artistic quality, all of our production and design is strictly in-house. Every print has been proofed, calibrated and inspected for defects. We do not drop ship, resell or make use of third-party production partners. SHIPPING AND PACKAGING ----------------------------- All orders ship within one business day via USPS First Class, Priority Mail or Priority Mail Express. Sizes 9” x 12” and 12” x 16” ship in a flat configuration, unless combined with larger prints, which require tubes. We will replace any lost or damaged items at no expense to you. HAPPINESS GUARANTEE ----------------------------- We will promptly address any issues that may arise with your order. If you are unhappy with your print for any reason, you are welcome to return it for a full refund.
The Bible says a lot about trusting God in difficult times. The Bible is full of stories of people going through trials and tribulations. Our faith is tested the most when we pass through difficulty and despair. It's not about facing bad times but how we respond when we face…

Have you come across enigmatic verses where God seems to be one of many? The Old Testament is full of them. Let’s take a look and see the transition from polytheism to monotheism.
