What is God’s purpose of the afflictions and difficulties which He has driven to people and nations? What are the reasons behind the destruction of the old nations? Do you think that the whole world is coming to the same fate of the old destructed nations? What is the last resort of escaping from this horrible end?

Book Synopsis Think and Believe by : Frederick W. Marks
Download or read book Think and Believe written by Frederick W. Marks and published by Emmaus Road Publishing. This book was released on 2012 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A coherent, forceful, and compelling case for God and the Church founded by Jesus of Nazareth. This is a remarkable achievement of solid, factual, information that is loaded with ammunition for the new evangelization. Contains colorful vignettes of historic moments alternating with sustained argument. Marks challenges the reader to set aside long-held assumptions and prejudices. Jesus is the only one who proclaimed himself sinless and the only one who ever claimed to be God. His followers converted an entire empire without resort to violence, and after winning Rome they not only gave the world its calendar but transformed pagan culture beyond recognition. These hard, cold facts are presented here with copious notes for easy identification of persons, events, or doctrines that may be unfamiliar. The reader will also find a detailed index and useful appendices.

Book Synopsis The Davidic Messiah in Luke-Acts by : Mark Strauss
Download or read book The Davidic Messiah in Luke-Acts written by Mark Strauss and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 1995-03-01 with total page 413 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The nature of Lukan christology has been much debated in recent years, with scholars claiming the pre-eminence of such categories as Lord, Prophet, Christ, or Isaianic Servant. In the present work the author examines one major theme within Luke's christology, that of the coming king from the line of David. A study of the Lukan birth narrative and the speeches in Acts reveals that Luke shows a strong interest in this royal-messianic theme, introducing it into passages which are introductory and programmatic for his christology as a sermon, portraying Jesus in strongly prophetic terms. The author seeks a synthesis of these seemingly conflicting royal and prophetic portraits in Luke's interpretation of the Old Testament book of Isaiah. When Isaiah is read as a unity, the eschatological deliverer is at the same time Davidic king (Isa. 9.11), suffering servant of Yahweh (Isa. 42-53), and prophet herald of salvation (Isa. 61), leading God's people on an eschatological new exodus. On the basis of this synthesis the christology of Luke-Acts is seen to be both consistent and unified, forming an integral part of Luke's wider purpose in his two-volume work.

Book Synopsis The Nonviolent Messiah by : Simon J. Joseph
Download or read book The Nonviolent Messiah written by Simon J. Joseph and published by Fortress Press. This book was released on 2014-06-02 with total page 528 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When scholars have set Jesus against various conceptions of the “messiah” and other redemptive figures in early Jewish expectation, those questions have been bound up with the problem of violence, whether the political violence of a militant messiah or the divine violence carried out by a heavenly or angelic figure. Missing from those discussions, Simon J. Joseph contends, are the unique conceptions of an Adamic redeemer figure in the Enochic material—conceptions that informed the Q tradition and, he argues, Jesus’ own self-understanding.

Book Synopsis The Mystery of God by : C. C. Rowland
Download or read book The Mystery of God written by C. C. Rowland and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2009 with total page 717 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book brings together the perspectives of apocalypticism and early Jewish mysticism to illuminate aspects of New Testament theology. The first part begins with a consideration of the mystical character of apocalypticism and then uses the Book of Revelation and the development of views about the heavenly mediator figure of Enoch to explore the importance of apocalypticism in the Gospels and Acts, the Pauline Letters and finally the key theological themes in the later books of the New Testament. The second and third parts explore the character of early Jewish mysticism by taking important themes in the early Jewish mystical texts such as the Temple and the Divine Body to demonstrate the relevance of this material to New Testament interpretation.
Download or read book Plain Jesus written by N. Micklem and published by Troubador Publishing Ltd. This book was released on 2013-09-01 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Plain Jesus, The Events on Nisan 14, N. Micklem goes behind the New Testament to excavate the facts about what happened shortly before – and shortly after – the death of Jesus. The alternative historical account presented here is based on fact. This is a book about Jesus for those who cannot attach any sensible meaning to the words ‘he came down from heaven and was born of a virgin,’ and have only the haziest idea about what is involved in resurrection. In his letter to the Galatians, the Apostle Paul makes the claim on oath that he did not receive his gospel from any human source, but from the risen Jesus. In Plain Jesus, The Events on Nisan 14 the author explores what the history of the early church might look like if that claim were accepted at face value. Taking account of the long neglected evidence outside the New Testament which shows that Jesus was crucified before the pilgrims in Jerusalem that year ate their Passover feast, N Micklem brings to light a picture of Jesus authenticated by those who knew him best.
Book Synopsis Sermons in 1 & 2 Corinthians by : R. J. Rushdoony
Download or read book Sermons in 1 & 2 Corinthians written by R. J. Rushdoony and published by Chalcedon Foundation. This book was released on 2023-06-09 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rushdoony’s Sermons in First and Second Corinthians are the last of his Biblical commentaries—delivered shortly before his passing—but it represents a fitting close to his teaching ministry. He said Paul’s letters are difficult to preach on because they speak to the sins of Christians, and with the church at Corinth, the long list of sins included division, strife, injustice, immorality, doctrinal error, and the abuse of the sacraments. Despite their many transgressions, the apostle Paul still addresses the believers at Corinth as saints and referred to their gathered community as the church of the Lord Jesus Christ. They were still Christ’s embassy on earth. They could still develop into a greater training center for Christian action. This is why Paul’s letters to the Corinthians are relevant to the church today, and it’s also why Rushdoony’s sermons on these two epistles are invaluable to us now. Rushdoony was criticized for his ecclesiology, but only because he always saw the greater fact of God’s advancing Kingdom, and the church as the equipping center for the saints. Rushdoony’s fresh application of Paul’s warnings and admonitions will help Christians, pastors, and churches to free themselves of the same sins and return to the church as an embassy of the Kingdom. THE NEED FOR A GODLY SOCIAL ORDER “The church could not hope in time to rule the world if it could not rule itself. It was thus very important for Paul to bring the Corinthians back into obedience to God’s law, among other things.” The apostle Paul was an envoy to the ekklesia of Jesus Christ—those who are called to establish God’s Kingdom on earth. Therefore, the importance of his patience, correction, and instruction could not be diminished if he were to be faithful to the One who sent him. The church is Christ’s embassy to earth to reclaim what belongs to Him. Against the backdrop of a history filled with hatred for God and hatred of all that is holy, our greater calling is the establishing of a godly social order, and this commentary by Rushdoony is a welcomed text to help equip us for that great responsibility.

Book Synopsis Reframing a Relevant Faith by : C Drew Smith
Download or read book Reframing a Relevant Faith written by C Drew Smith and published by Energion Publications. This book was released on 2014-12-03 with total page 121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many people expect faith to be inflexible and unchanging. It is relevant because it always has been, at least to them. To admit change is to bring on the end of faith and all of its benefits. Others believe that a relevant faith is by nature shallow and unrooted. Author and educator Drew Smith disagrees. He believes that it is both possible and necessary to reframe faith in such a way that it is relevant to our present society. At the same time, this reframed faith is still a historic faith. It is definitely not shallow and in fact is rooted deeply in the person and teaching of Jesus. Chapters look at why a faith should be progressive, how it can be rooted in the scriptures, the importance of the person of Jesus, and what this means for the mission of the church. Each chapter includes questions for reflection and discussion, making it easy to use this guide in group study. Those who are looking for an alternative to an anti-intellectual and narrow Christianity will find in this book an essential and friendly guide.
