Download or read book Heaven and Hell written by Bart D. Ehrman and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2021-03-23 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over half of Americans believe in a literal heaven, in a literal hell. Most people who hold these beliefs are Christian and assume they are the age-old teachings of the Bible. Ehrman shows that eternal rewards and punishments are found nowhere in the Old Testament, and are not what Jesus or his disciples taught. He recounts the long history of the afterlife, ranging from The Epic of Gilgamesh up to the writings of Augustine, focusing especially on the teachings of Jesus and his early followers. Ehrman shows that competing views were intimately connected with the social, cultural, and historical worlds out of which they emerged. -- adapted from jacket

Book Synopsis Way to Happiness by : Fulton J. Sheen
Download or read book Way to Happiness written by Fulton J. Sheen and published by Mockingbird Press. This book was released on 2022-03-23 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Way to Happiness (1953) is a short collection of essays on moral and spiritual principles by Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen. As he writes in the introduction, his goal for this work was to bring "solace, healing and hope to hearts; truth and enlightenment to minds; goodness, strength and resolution to wills" through his exploration of universal topics like happiness, love, and inner peace. Fulton J. Sheen was born in El Paso, Illinois, in 1895. After attending St. Viator College Seminary in Illinois and St. Paul Seminary in Minnesota, he received his ordination and was assigned to the Diocese of Peoria, Illinois. A student even after achieving priesthood, he received degrees at the Catholic University of America in Washington, D.C., the Catholic University of Leuven in Belgium, and the Pontificium Collegium Internationale Angelicum in Rome. Throughout the 1930s and 1940s, Archbishop Sheen was a weekly speaker on the popular radio program The Catholic Hour. With an audience in the millions, he shared his wisdom and knowledge of the scriptures and faith-based morality to aid listeners through their daily lives. This public education continued through the 1950s and 1960s on the television programs Life is Worth Living and The Fulton Sheen Program. Archbishop Sheen won an Emmy for Most Outstanding Television Personality in 1952. During all of this activity, he found time to write dozens of books on faith. Way to Happiness was published in 1953, at the height of the archbishop's popularity. The book contains 37 short chapters on subjects key to daily life, including work and repose, self-discipline, the ego, and the spirit of giving. The book's short chapters make it a wonderful study for a month-long daily devotional. Readers will find a simple message-although one that is a challenge to put into daily practice. "Our happiness consists in fulfilling the purpose of our being," writes Archbishop Sheen. That purpose is to overflow with three things: life, truth, and love with no limits, in their purest forms. Our humanity makes us long for these things. But to find them, "...we must go out beyond the limits of this shadowed world-to a Truth not mingled with its shadow, error-to a Life not mingled with its shadow, death-to a Love not mingled with its shadow, hate. We must seek for Pure Life, Pure Truth and Pure Love-and that is the definition of God." The book is broken into eight sections, exploring themes of happiness, work, love, children, youth, inner peace, giving, and man. In each, Archbishop Sheen shares his warmth and wisdom, characterized by support from the scriptures and anecdotes from daily life. While he encourages the reader to eschew the ego and cultivate self-discipline, he never lectures. One gets the sense that he has had the same conversations internally many times over before he shared them with the reader. Indeed, he admits, "Our world is full of prophets of doom, and I would be one of them if I did not practically believe in God." The world of the 1950s was one that had faced two world wars, a great depression, the rise of Communism, and more dramatic changes in just the preceding 40 years. While the work takes an individual-level view of happiness and improvement, Archbishop Sheen is clear that the end result of personal betterment will lead to societal change. "Remake man," he writes, "and you remake his world." So while the true Way to Happiness may be walked alone, it was his hope that to walk it would lead the rest of the world to a better future.

Book Synopsis I Am Living Heaven On Earth by : Melissa Drum
Download or read book I Am Living Heaven On Earth written by Melissa Drum and published by . This book was released on 2020-03-26 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I often wonder how Exodus 3:14 and Matthew 6:10 have become so misunderstood. Everyone talks about how much better Heaven is going to be, and how their pains and sorrows will be no more once they die. Yet, we live in Heaven or Hell every day on Earth by our thoughts and by our daily choices. Heaven and Hell are states of consciousness. We are meant to live in Heaven on Earth! Jesus and other great teachers demonstrated this by setting the example and left their wisdom in written books. We have much to learn from every flower, every tree, every season, and every animal. They know exactly what to do without being told, and God/Universe sends them everything they need to survive. When we are aligned with Source, we, too, become magnets attracting everything we need. This means that we don't have to make things happen on our own understanding. Everything flows easily and naturally to the soul when aligned. Abundance, ideal relationships, all of your hearts desires are achieved without effort. And this was my hardest, yet most enriching lesson to learn-to surrender with grace to the forces that hold me, and will continue to hold me in ways I've never dreamt possible!!! There were many times I have questioned myself, and wondered, What in the world am I doing? I felt like I was Noah building the Ark. What I know now is that I am an Ark builder! There was something inside of me telling me that if I kept strong in my faith, trusted and listened to that little nudging voice, then I would live a life beyond my wildest dreams. I knew deep down that this was bigger than me; it is my soul calling. I know I am being directed by a force far greater than myself, and I cannot erase these pictures that I hold in my imagination. I feel with divine love and happiness in my heart what this book will bring to millions of people. This feeling is imprinted upon my subconscious mind, and my subconscious mind creates exactly what I have come to believe and feel. I give thanks every day that this book will bring Heaven On Earth to the world. I have no idea how, but I surrender and trust in a power far greater than myself. I feel deep feelings of gratitude in advance for the magical outcome. The Secret teaches us that, "everything that has ever been invented or created throughout the history of humankind began with one thought. From one thought, a way was made, and it manifested from the invisible into the visible." When Henry Ford was bringing his vision of the motor vehicle into our world, people around him ridiculed him, and thought he had gone mad to pursue such a "wild" vision. He, however, knew much more than the people who ridiculed him. He knew The Secret, and he knew the law of the Universe. Ford has also been quoted saying, "Whether you think you can or think you can't, either way you are right." I choose to think that I can.

Why is it that our faith can easily become an old, tired routine instead of an exhilarating, God-honoring lifestyle?

And in the process of pouring ourselves out for others, we’ll see God radically transform our own hearts as well.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What happens to us when we die? Will heaven be a place of fluffy clouds, angels and cherubs playing harps?

Insightful and accessible, What on Earth is Heaven? is a book for anyone wanting a deeper understanding of the Bible's teaching on heaven, or anyone who has wondered about the true meaning of finding heaven on earth. Life-affirming and uplifting, this book will fire your imagination as to how you can be a part of bringing heaven to the world around you.
Book Synopsis The Division of Heaven and Earth by : Shokdung
Download or read book The Division of Heaven and Earth written by Shokdung and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2017-01-01 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a translation of one of the most influential and important books from Tibet in the modern era, a passionate indictment of Chinese policies and an eloquent analysis of protests that swept Tibet from March, 2008 - the 'Earth Rat' year according to the Tibetan calendar - as a re-awakening of Tibetan national consciousness and solidarity. The Division of Heaven and Earth was banned by the Chinese government on publication, and led to Shokdung being "disappeared" and imprisoned for nearly six months. This English translation is being made available for the first time since copies began to circulate underground in Tibet. The author, Tagyal -- who uses the pen name Shokdung, meaning "morning conch"-- one of Tibet's leading intellectuals, wrote his book in response to an unprecedented wave of bold demonstrations and expressions of Tibetan solidarity and national identity. In his foreword Matthew Akester, a Tibet specialist who translated this book into English, offers an account of the significance of these developments, which transformed the political landscape across the plateau and led to a sustained and violent crackdown by the Chinese authorities that continues to this day. Shokdung's book is regarded as the most daring and wide-ranging critique of China's policies in Tibet since the 10th Panchen
