Download or read book A Sacramental-Prophetic Vision written by Matthew T. Eggemeier and published by Liturgical Press. This book was released on 2014-04-23 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The sacramental and prophetic traditions of Christian spirituality, suggests Matthew Eggemeier, possess critical resources for responding to the contemporary social crises of widespread ecological degradation and the innocent suffering of the crucified poor. In A Sacramental-Prophetic Vision, Eggemeier maintains that the vital key for cultivating these traditions in the present is to situate these spiritualities in the context of spiritual exercises or ascetical practices that enable Christians to live more deeply in the presence of God (coram Deo) and in turn to make this presence visible in a suffering world.

Book excerpt: What does the Church mean when she recognizes private revelations and visions as credible? Which is the point at which God affects the soul? What are the criteria for the discernment of genuine prophecies. Karl Rahner's concern is the theological and psychological significance of phenomena which, despite the Church's care in establishing their authentic character, have been left too often and too readily to human credulity. The danger of error, he suggests, is greater in credulity than in scepticism.

They have the power to sanctify and beatify those who engage the liturgy with proper minds and hearts.

He examines the core meaning of each liturgical element in creation, in the culture, in the Old Testament, in Christ, and in heaven. This book is an excellent resource for pastors, seminarians, permanent deacons and deacon candidates, lay ministers, and parish liturgy coordinators.

Beyond ‘representing’ another reality, sacramental symbols are intimately connected with the reality they express and sources of joy, solace, confrontation, peace, healing, strength, and life-giving sustenance to the initiated.In its Constitution on the Sacred Liturgy, the Council the Second Vatican Council (1962-1965) urged that sacramental symbols be more transparent to their sacred reality to disclose the reality of the Christ event —the life, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ—so that mystery, and not confusion, could flourish.The seven sacraments – Baptism, Confirmation, Eucharist, Penance, Marriage, Orders and the Anointing of the Sick - reveal a link to social justice. The contributors to this book are theologians with pastoral sensitivities—including marrieds, parents, pastors and priests. This present work the social implications of worship, the history of each sacrament, and but also an integrated understanding of the transformation that is inextricably linked to each sacrament, as well as the active presence of Christ who lives in expectation of our response to participate in the urgent response to unjust policies and systems that affect the most vulnerable in our global family.

Book Synopsis Historical Phases of Prophetic Teaching by : Evelyn Theresa Watson
Download or read book Historical Phases of Prophetic Teaching written by Evelyn Theresa Watson and published by WestBowPress. This book was released on 2013-11-26 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Volume IV the author, Evelyn Theresa Watson, compares the Revelator’s words to scriptural and gospel prophecy verifying the doctrinal mystery and miracle that lie behind the religious warfare of past and present ages. Her commentary presents THE REVELATION OF ST. JOHN THE DIVINE as a treatise on the life and time of Jesus Christ as the messenger of the messianic message unto the seven churches. She attests to the Revelator’s seven visions of revealed prophecy which retell the previous two thousand years of unfulfilled scriptural prophecy and foretell one hundred years of fulfilled gospel prophecy. The author correlates these two time periods to the nineteen hundred years of biblical prophecy that followed. The beginning of the twenty-first century marks the end times of the Bible’s historical phases of prophetic teaching.

You will discover the prophetic power of dreams, visions, and life under the open heavens. How does visionary revelation "happen?" Can it be trusted?

The Seer answers these questions and will move your heart and stir up your hunger for intimacy with God, because The Seer's goal is to reveal the man Christ Jesus!
Book Synopsis In Counterpoint by : Kristine Suna-Koro
Download or read book In Counterpoint written by Kristine Suna-Koro and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2017-05-01 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What does postcoloniality have to do with sacramentality? How do diasporic lives and imaginaries shape the course of postcolonial sacramental theology? Neither postcolonial theorists nor sacramental theologians have hitherto sought to engage in a sustained dialogue with one another. In this trailblazing volume, Kristine Suna-Koro brings postcolonialism, diaspora discourse, and Christian sacramental theology into a mutually critical and constructive transdisciplinary conversation. Dialoguing with thinkers as diverse as Edward Said and Gayatri Spivak as well as Francis D'Sa, S.J., Martin Luther, Mayra Rivera, and John Chryssavgis, the author offers a postcolonial retrieval of sacramentality through a robust theological engagement with the postcolonial notions of hybridity, contrapuntality, planetarity, and Third Space. While exploring the methodological potential of diasporic imaginary in theology, this innovative book advances the notion of sacramental pluriverse and of Christ as its paradigmatic crescendo within the sacramental economy of creation and redemptive transformation. In the context of ecological degradation, In Counterpoint argues that it is vital for the postcolonial sacramental renewal to be rooted in ethics as a uniquely postcolonial fundamental theology.
Download or read book Holy the Firm written by Annie Dillard and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2009-10-13 with total page 41 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "[This] is a book of great richness, beauty and power and thus very difficult to do justice to in a brief review. . . . The violence is sometimes unbearable, the language rarely less than superb. Dillard's description of the moth's death makes Virginia Woolf's go dim and Edwardian. . . . Nature seen so clear and hard that the eyes tear. . . . A rare and precious book." — Frederick Buechner, New York Times Book Review A profound book about the natural world—both its beauty and its cruelty—from Pulitzer Prize-winning author Annie Dillard In 1975 Dillard took up residence on an island in Puget Sound, in a wooden room furnished with "one enormous window, one cat, one spider, and one person." For the next two years she asked herself questions about time, reality, sacrifice, death, and the will of God. In Holy the Firm, she writes about a moth consumed in a candle flame, about a seven-year-old girl burned in an airplane accident, about a baptism on a cold beach. But behind the moving curtain of what she calls "the hard things—rock mountain and salt sea," she sees, sometimes far off and sometimes as close by as a veil or air, the power play of holy fire. Here is a lyrical gift to any reader who has ever wondered how best to live with grace and wonder in the natural world.
Book Synopsis A Sacred Look: Becoming Cultural Mystics by : Nancy Usselmann
Download or read book A Sacred Look: Becoming Cultural Mystics written by Nancy Usselmann and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2018-04-18 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How should a follower of Christ engage the popular media culture? By becoming a mystic! Sr. Nancy challenges Christians today to delve deep into the rich theological tradition of the church as the root and foundation for recognizing the beauty of God present in all that is truly human. The artists of popular culture sometimes unwittingly seek transcendence while grappling with some of humanity’s most profound existential longings. The cultural mystics of today point out those needs of humanity in the culture’s artifacts in order to enter into dialogue with those who seek something beyond what this world satisfies. The anthropological-sacramental-incarnational paradigm presented gives us this ability to take a sacred look of the culture and offer the joy of the Gospel, Christ who is the answer of all humanity’s yearnings!
Download or read book Prophetic Visions written by Joe Ibojie and published by Cross House Books Limited. This book was released on 2001 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prophetic Visions helps to make spiritual and practical sense of your Godly visions andreveals how messages from God cover a wide spectrum of supernatural occurrences ranging from a mere sighting to a grand cinematographic happening --from purely auditory to purely aromatic. For many people, the ability to recall dreams diminishes with age--but with visions, the capacity to receive by visions not only increases with age but actually gets better. The scope of visions therefore becomes limitless. Visions can involve the totality of the human being--body, soul, and spirit--such that a vision can sometimes be perceived through the natural senses if the vision has penetrated the natural realm. This means that depending on the nature by the visionary occurrence, the vision can be seen, heard, touched, or smelled! Exciting and intriguing chapters include: Activating Your Spiritual Eyes Diversity of Visionary Encounters Practical Keys for You--the Visionary Infirmities of The Human Spirit The Anointing And The Seer Operating Under an Open Heaven Spiritual Activation Sample Interpretation Exercises To Sharpen Your Skills Understanding and Managing Your Revelations Also included is an excerpt from Dr. Ibojie's excellent Bible-BasedDictionary of Prophetic Symbols to help you distinguish the elements of your God-encounter visions. Prophetic Visions answers pertinent queries, brokering the way forward to the reception, understanding, and application of visions for the edification of the body of Christ. The greatness of each believer is in the story of each of our lives.
