C S Lewis Older Sister
1,345 wordsIn 1956, Clive Staples Lewis wrote an intellectually deep book, which he titled "Till We have Faces.

Hierarchy And The Disorder Of Separation In Bible
1,374 wordsARLT 100 January 29, 2000 Proper Hierarchy and the Disorder of Separation Throughout the text of the Bible, and especially evident in Chapter 3 of Genesis, there is a system which God has set up to denote the proper relationships each of his creations share with each other and with Him.
