Book Synopsis Babylon Religion by : David W. Daniels
Download or read book Babylon Religion written by David W. Daniels and published by Chick Publications. This book was released on 2011 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a history of goddess-worship. Written like a graphic novel, this well-researched book shows how goddess worship "morphed" through the centuries until it climaxed in its present most common form: the worship of the Virgin Mary. In different cultures, the names were different, but the goddess was the same. She was the Queen of Heaven, the mother of the god. She became the Mediatrix through whom all must go to reach their god.Author David Daniels is a stickler for research, so no one will be surprised to find a 30-page section of End Notes, as well as annotated bibliography. You can check out his facts for yourself! It's a heavy subject, but the illustrations by Jack T Chick help to make the story flow, and a lot easier for the casual reader to understand.

Book Synopsis Imagining Religion by : Jonathan Z. Smith
Download or read book Imagining Religion written by Jonathan Z. Smith and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 1982 with total page 181 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With this influential book of essays, Jonathan Z. Smith has pointed the academic study of religion in a new theoretical direction, one neither theological nor willfully ideological. Making use of examples as apparently diverse and exotic as the Maori cults in nineteenth-century New Zealand and the events of Jonestown, Smith shows that religion must be construed as conventional, anthropological, historical, and as an exercise of imagination. In his analyses, religion emerges as the product of historically and geographically situated human ingenuity, cognition, and curiosity—simply put, as the result of human labor, one of the decisive but wholly ordinary ways human beings create the worlds in which they live and make sense of them. "These seven essays . . . display the critical intelligence, creativity, and sheer common sense that make Smith one of the most methodologically sophisticated and suggestive historians of religion writing today. . . . Smith scrutinizes the fundamental problems of taxonomy and comparison in religious studies, suggestively redescribes such basic categories as canon and ritual, and shows how frequently studied myths may more likely reflect situational incongruities than vaunted mimetic congruities. His final essay, on Jonestown, demonstrates the interpretive power of the historian of religion to render intelligible that in our own day which seems most bizarre."—Richard S. Sarason, Religious Studies Review
Book Synopsis Family Religion in Babylonia, Syria and Israel by : Karel Van Der Toorn
Download or read book Family Religion in Babylonia, Syria and Israel written by Karel Van Der Toorn and published by SBL Press. This book was released on 2016-12-15 with total page 500 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This SBL Press edition of an essential Brill reference work deals with the religious practices of the family in the ancient Babylonian, Syrian, and Israelite civilizations. On the basis of a wealth of documents from both the private and the literary realm, the book gives an exhaustive description and analysis of the rites of the ancestor cult and the devotion to local gods. The author demonstrates the role of these two aspects of family religion in the identity construction of its followers. The section dealing with Israel pays particular attention to the relationship between family religion and state religion. The emergence of the state religion under King Saul marked the beginning of a competition between civil and private religion. Though the two had great influence upon each other, the tension between them was never resolved. A study of their interaction proves to be a key for the understanding of the development of Israelite religion during the monarchic period.
Book Synopsis The Doctrine of Sin in the Babylonian Religion by : Julian Morgenstern
Download or read book The Doctrine of Sin in the Babylonian Religion written by Julian Morgenstern and published by Book Tree. This book was released on 2002 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most believe that sin first arose with Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden. If this was the first instance, Christianity was not around for another two thousand years or more to include it in its belief structure. The first page of this book clarifies that sin, in its original form, was anything done to anger the gods (rather than God). The word for God in the Old Testament is elohim a plural word. Facts like this make this book a vital source for early theological truths. Offers an outstanding rundown on the early gods, who they were and what they stood for. Contains surprising information on our origins, the source of evil, the gods themselves, and humankinds interactions with them.
Book Synopsis Mystery Babylon: The Religion of the Beast by : Paul Sides
Download or read book Mystery Babylon: The Religion of the Beast written by Paul Sides and published by Rav Sha'ul. This book was released on 2015-01-01 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the second book of the Original Revelation Series: Mystery Babylon – The Religion of the Beast, we are going to define how sun worship (that originated with the Sumerian Culture some 5,000 years ago) was organized later into a World Religion in Babylon. This religion evolved complete with a well defined Godhead, a day of worship, holy days, a Christ, and sacrifices. This religion, The Mystery Religion of Babylon, is the false religion identified in Scripture. It was this first world religion that was scattered among all nations and cultures at The Tower of Babel when Yahuah confused the languages. We can trace through time and cultures the progression of this religion as humanity flourished on Earth to the present day. Before we can identify what religion today is The Mystery Religion of Babylon, we must first clearly define this world religion as it existed in ancient Babylon. Only then can we compare the religions of today to find an exact match. Then we must compare this false religion to the “Faith” described in The Bible and identify The Truth. That is the purpose of my book series The Original Revelation. Throughout this book series, we carefully examine the evolution of history as man has built upon the corrupted version of the message written in the stars.

Book Synopsis American Babylon by : Philip S. Gorski
Download or read book American Babylon written by Philip S. Gorski and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-03-31 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why did 81 percent of white evangelicals vote for Donald Trump in 2016? And what does this tell us about the relationship between Christianity and democracy in the United States? American Babylon places our present political moment against a deep historical backdrop. In Part I the author traces the development of democratic institutions from Ancient Greece through to the American Revolution and of Christian political theology from Augustine to Falwell. Part II charts the decline of democratic governance within American churches; explains the capture of evangelical Christianity by the Republican Party; and denounces the fateful embrace between white Christian nationalists and right-wing populists that culminated in Trump’s victory. An accessible and timely book, American Babylon is essential reading for those concerned with the vexed relationship of religion and politics in the United States, including students and scholars in the fields of divinity, history, political science, religious studies, and sociology.
Book Synopsis Uneasy in Babylon by : Barry Hankins
Download or read book Uneasy in Babylon written by Barry Hankins and published by University of Alabama Press. This book was released on 2002-04-24 with total page 357 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The definitive account of how conservative Southern Baptists came to dominate the nation's largest Protestant denomination In 1979 a group of conservative members of the Southern Baptists Convention (SBC) initiated a campaign to reshape the denomination’s seminaries and organizations by installing new conservative leaders who made belief in the inerrancy of the Bible a condition of service. They succeeded. This book is a definitive account of that takeover. Barry Hankins argues that the conservatives sought control of the SBC not or not only to secure the denomination's orthodoxy but to mobilize Southern Baptists for a war against secular culture. The best explanation of the beliefs and behavior of Southern Baptist conservatives, Hankins concludes, lies in their adoption of the culture war model of American society. Believing that "American culture has turned hostile to traditional forms of faith,” they sought to deploy the Southern Baptist Convention in a "full-scale culture war" against secularism in the United States. Hankins traces the roots of this movement to the ideas of such post-WWII northern evangelicals as Carl F. H. Henry and Francis Schaeffer. Henry and Schaeffer viewed America's secular culture as hostile to Christianity and called on evangelicals to develop a robust Christian opposition to secular culture. As the nation’s largest Protestant denomination, SBC positions on divisive cultural issues like abortion have remade the American political landscape, most notably in the reversal of Roe v. Wade. Hankins also argues, however, that Southern Baptist conservatives sought more than orthodox adherence to Biblical inerrancy. They also sought an identity that was authentically Baptist and Southern. Hankin’s excellent and prescient work will fascinate readers interested in contemporary American religion, culture, and public policy, as well as in the American South.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prophecy expert Mark Hitchcock deals with often-raised questions about America's future in this thoroughly researched, reader-friendly resource.
