Book Synopsis The Day I Was Crucified by : Gene Edwards
Download or read book The Day I Was Crucified written by Gene Edwards and published by Destiny Image Publishers. This book was released on 2011-07-28 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Quite simply, one of the most powerful, moving pieces of Christian literature of modern times. Other books have recorded the crucifixion and resurrection, but never before has the reader been ushered into unseen realms to witness the power of the cross as seen from the view of God the Father. You will discover a whole world of new meaning of Christ's death as you witness the destruction of the world systems, the annihilation of the law, the end of Adam's fallen race...and the death of Death. Here is an unequaled drama of power and depth which Christian literature has rarely, if ever, achieved. Edward's The Day I Was Crucified As Told By Jesus the Christ now takes its place among the greatest of Christian literature. We will still be reading this book 200 years from now, and still weeping (and praising) as we read. This is one of those rare life-transforming books.
Book Synopsis Misquoting Jesus by : Bart D. Ehrman
Download or read book Misquoting Jesus written by Bart D. Ehrman and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2009-10-06 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When world-class biblical scholar Bart Ehrman first began to study the texts of the Bible in their original languages he was startled to discover the multitude of mistakes and intentional alterations that had been made by earlier translators. In Misquoting Jesus, Ehrman tells the story behind the mistakes and changes that ancient scribes made to the New Testament and shows the great impact they had upon the Bible we use today. He frames his account with personal reflections on how his study of the Greek manuscripts made him abandon his once ultraconservative views of the Bible. Since the advent of the printing press and the accurate reproduction of texts, most people have assumed that when they read the New Testament they are reading an exact copy of Jesus's words or Saint Paul's writings. And yet, for almost fifteen hundred years these manuscripts were hand copied by scribes who were deeply influenced by the cultural, theological, and political disputes of their day. Both mistakes and intentional changes abound in the surviving manuscripts, making the original words difficult to reconstruct. For the first time, Ehrman reveals where and why these changes were made and how scholars go about reconstructing the original words of the New Testament as closely as possible. Ehrman makes the provocative case that many of our cherished biblical stories and widely held beliefs concerning the divinity of Jesus, the Trinity, and the divine origins of the Bible itself stem from both intentional and accidental alterations by scribes -- alterations that dramatically affected all subsequent versions of the Bible.

Book Synopsis The Cross Examen by : Roger J. Gench
Download or read book The Cross Examen written by Roger J. Gench and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2020-10-29 with total page 115 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume explores the essential relationship between spirituality and activism in conversation with a political theology of the cross. The author contends that contemplative practice and activism bear the same cruciform footprint and are integrally connected, for the cross of Jesus Christ reveals both the brokenness in our lives and the corresponding brokenness in the world; it also discloses the God who is always (and already) bringing resurrection and life out of the death-tending ways of our world. The cross and resurrection expose other crosses, large and small, that litter the landscape of our world and of our personal and corporate lives, as well as places where God's resurrecting power is at work, bringing life out of death and establishing footholds for the unfolding of the new creation. The volume engages Paul's Letter to the Galatians and new scholarly readings of it as a rich resource for reflection on these matters and explores the fruit of the Spirit as political virtues that empower communal participation in God's restorative work in the world. Providing new angles of vision on both the cross and the apostle Paul, the book expands and enlivens reflection on spirituality and activism as profound and generative resources for contemporary faith and practice.
Book Synopsis The Crucifixion by : Fleming Rutledge
Download or read book The Crucifixion written by Fleming Rutledge and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2017-02-09 with total page 695 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few treatments of the death of Jesus Christ have made a point of accounting for the gruesome, degrading, public manner of his death by crucifixion, a mode of execution so loathsome that the ancient Romans never spoke of it in polite society. Rutledge probes all the various themes and motifs used by the New Testament evangelists and apostolic writers to explain the meaning of the cross of Christ. She shows how each of the biblical themes contributes to the whole, with the Christus Victor motif and the concept of substitution sharing pride of place along with Irenaeus's recapitulation model.
Book Synopsis Personhood and Christianity by : Oliver Forshaw
Download or read book Personhood and Christianity written by Oliver Forshaw and published by Lutterworth Press. This book was released on 2010-12-31 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Making clear the Christian position that God's self-revelation is through human nature, the author gives an account of the way a person is formed as an individual in community from the moment of conception onward. The research and teaching of Dr Frank Lake are explained, drawing out the distinction between Lake's kind of psychodynamic therapy and psychoanalytical practices, whether Freudian or Jungian. The book is aimed at showing that Christian living and spirituality are properly focused on the non-religious activity of God in the world, and that the Church's mission requires the formation of worshipping congregations that are increasingly free of the defensive behaviours commonly encouraged by religion. In Personhood and Christianity Forshaw makes a three-fold approach: - Arguing that many of the practices and attitudes of the divided churches still make it difficult for people to understand Christianity; - Taking up proposals of leading theologians and therapists he discusses the kind of holiness in the midst of ordinary life that can lead to practical reform in parishes, and contribute towards radical change in community life more widely. The discussion focuses on emotional healing as a primary element in the Church's work, and on the New Testament theology of the corporate Christ as key to the recovery of faith in the 21st century; - Stress is laid on the world-directed purpose of the Eucharist through the ascended Jesus who is present everywhere. Personhood and Christianity will be of great interest to all involved in Christian leadership and in the caring services of Church and society generally, to those training for ministry and to everyone engaged in pastoral counselling and therapy.

Book Synopsis The Trial and Crucifixion of Jesus by : David W. Chapman
Download or read book The Trial and Crucifixion of Jesus written by David W. Chapman and published by Hendrickson Publishers. This book was released on 2019 with total page 896 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The authors of this volume set themselves one task, to trace the extra-biblical primary texts that are relevant for understanding Jesus' trial and crucifixion. With that goal in mind, the book is built on three major themes: (1) Jesus' trial / interrogation before the Sanhedrin, (2) Jesus' trial before Pontius Pilatus, and (3) crucifixion as a method of execution in antiquity. In chronologically sequential order (where possible), the authors select and arrange an overwhelming amount of extra-biblical primary texts -- 462 to be exact -- underneath these three categories (75, 46, and 341 texts respectively)."--Brian J. Wright in Religious Studies Review
Download or read book Born Crucified written by L. E. Maxwell and published by Moody Publishers. This book was released on 2010-06-01 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L. E. Maxwell writes, “The cross is the key to all situations as well as to all Scripture.” By relating the cross as essential to the life of the believer, Professor L.E. Maxwell simply and practically shows how an understanding of our identification with Christ in his death and resurrection can lead to life as it was meant to be lived. It is by living with a cross-centered perspective that we can have both victory over sin and power to serve God well. Maxwell's heart and vision for training up young poeple with the truth of God's Word and the necessity of evangelism shines forth in this little book. Readers know authenticity when they read it - and Maxwell exudes it.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Portraying themselves as challenging blind religious dogma with evidence-led skepticism, the neo-atheist movement claims that the New Testament contains unreliable tales about a mythical figure who, far from being the resurrected Lord of life, may not even have lived. This comprehensive critique documents the falsehood of these neo-atheist claims, correcting their historical and philosophical mistakes to show how we can get at the truth about the historical Jesus.

Book Synopsis The Non-Crucifixion of Jesus by : Ahmed Ismail
Download or read book The Non-Crucifixion of Jesus written by Ahmed Ismail and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2008 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The overemphasis for the importance of the crucifixion or death of Jesus on the cross was not put in place until the era of Constantine. Historically, the issue of whether Jesus was or was not on the cross and crucified was settled around 148 AC according the Roman church's satisfaction. In addition, the idea of Jesus being crucified was believed by certain Jewish-Christian sects for various reasons from the time of the actual crucifixion event. Furthermore, the declaration that Jesus rose from the dead was bound to cause trouble to those who lacked a deep comprehension in religious matters. The reasons for this are varied. It must not be forgotten, however, that during many decades the forming 'church' and its multitudinous sects were undergoing excruciating turmoil within and outside its ranks and this caused a lot of confusion to enter into the mix. Before the actual formation of Christianity, as a distinct religious movement, several ideas were floating around and one of them was that Jesus was not of the 'flesh' but a spiritual being. To counteract that idea, the notion that Jesus was actually crucified took concrete shape as if to prove his real existence and that he was not just an 'angelic' figure but a real person. The truth concerning the crucifixion event is astounding but only when an honest approach to all of the scriptures and a truthful look at history is applied. That is the truth but acceptance of this truth is quite another matter indeed!
