Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prayer and Anticipation are Now in Season: 25 Devotions for Advent Beginning on December 1, this Once-A-Day Christmastime devotional booklet takes you through the entire Advent season with thoughts on the person of Jesus: his involvement at the creation of the world, his life in the Gospel accounts, and who he is today. Along the way you will meet and examine the lives of various individuals involved in the incarnation, and during the week of Christmas examine the response to this miraculous and gracious event, both in heaven and on earth.

In addition, each devotion provides thoughts and questions for meditation, along with a prayer for each day, making them perfect for your own personal, family, or small-group use. The 25 days of reading are broken out as follows: • The Old Testament presence of Jesus: who He was at creation, where He shows up in other parts of the Old Testament, and more • The people associated with the Nativity: Zechariah and Elisabeth, Mary and Joseph, John the Baptist, Herod, and the Magi • The specifics and the people directly involved in the nativity: the shepherds, the angels, and the baby Jesus himself • A Christmas reading that points ahead to his ministry, his passion and his rule as King

Download or read book John the Baptist in History and Theology written by Joel Marcus and published by Univ of South Carolina Press. This book was released on 2018-11-16 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An analysis that challenges the conventional Christian hierarchy of John the Baptist and Jesus of Nazareth While the Christian tradition has subordinated John the Baptist to Jesus of Nazareth, John himself would likely have disagreed with that ranking. In this eye-opening new book, John the Baptist in History and Theology, Joel Marcus makes a powerful case that John saw himself, not Jesus, as the proclaimer and initiator of the kingdom of God and his own ministry as the center of God's saving action in history. Although the Fourth Gospel has the Baptist saying, "He must increase, but I must decrease," Marcus contends that this and other biblical and extrabiblical evidence reveal a continuing competition between the two men that early Christians sought to muffle. Like Jesus, John was an apocalyptic prophet who looked forward to the imminent end of the world and the establishment of God's rule on earth. Originally a member of the Dead Sea Sect, an apocalyptic community within Judaism, John broke with the group over his growing conviction that he himself was Elijah, the end-time prophet who would inaugurate God's kingdom on earth. Through his ministry of baptism, he ushered all who came to him—Jews and non-Jews alike—into this dawning new age. Jesus began his career as a follower of the Baptist, but, like other successor figures in religious history, he parted ways from his predecessor as he became convinced of his own centrality in God's purposes. Meanwhile John's mass following and apocalyptic message became political threats to Herod Antipas, who had John executed to abort any revolutionary movement. Based on close critical-historical readings of early texts—including the accounts of John in the Gospels and in Josephus's Antiquities—as well as parallels from later religious movements, John the Baptist in History and Theology situates the Baptist within Second Temple Judaism and compares him to other apocalyptic thinkers from ancient and modern times. It concludes with thoughtful reflections on how its revisionist interpretations might be incorporated into the Christian faith.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John the Baptist, forerunner of Jesus, son of Zacharias and Elizabeth""both of priestly descent""lived as a Nazarite in the desert, began his ministry beyond Jordan in the fifteenth year of Tiberias Caesar, preached baptism of repentance in preparation of the coming of the messiah, baptized Jesus, bore witness to Jesus as the Messiah, and was imprisoned and then to death by Herod Antipas. Jesus said of John, "Among those born of women there has not risen one greater than John the Baptist." He was the last and greatest of the prophets (Matt. 11:13""14). Nevertheless, he stood, like Moses, on the threshold of the Promised Land. His garment was rolled in blood.

Download or read book Loosing the Lion: Proclaiming the Gospel of Mark written by Leroy A. Huizenga and published by Emmaus Road Publishing. This book was released on 2017 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drama. Irony. Betrayal. Miracles. A holy war with the whole world at stake. And it’s all packed into the shortest of the four Gospels. Written in an engaging, lively, oral style, Loosing the Lion tells us how, despite being misunderstood and neglected throughout most of history, the Gospel of Mark has recently been experiencing a scholarly revival. Theologians are beginning to see how it is actually an intense, wild, impossible story told at a breakneck pace with twists and turns that shock and surprise those with eyes to see and ears to hear. Readers will be captivated by the Gospel’s literary brilliance, which brings us to the threshold of an encounter with the living Jesus, who reveals his mysteries, and ultimately himself, to those who approach him and dwell in his presence. And when we do encounter him, “The proper response is repentance, joining God’s army to be liberated, and once liberated, advancing the liberation of the whole cosmos, which, ultimately, is the content of the Gospel Jesus calls us to believe in. Liberation is coming. Join the resistance.”

Book excerpt: For the first time in nearly 50 years, a casual yet informative method to learn about John the Baptist… "Why did each of the four evangelists make John the gateway to the Gospel, the first preacher of Good News? What were the reasons for the early Church's intense interest in a desert hermit whose public ministry lasted two years or less? Why in early Christian tradition was John the Baptist accorded an exalted religious stature, almost equal to that of Mary? The irony is that most modern scholarship on John has missed the true sources of his religious significance…in his links to Christ and to the very earliest beginnings of the Christian religion."—from the Introduction Alexander Burke pieces together the mystery of this well-known disciple of Jesus one chapter at a time, covering John's preaching, arrest and execution, his role in Eastern and Western Christian Tradition, and the many paradoxes surrounding him. An excellent resource for group or individual study, John the Baptist offers questions for reflection at the end of each chapter. Discover a fresh perspective of John the Baptist. Let him rise to the top of the beadroll of Christian heroes where Jesus believed he belonged. Step back and see the beautiful mosaic of mysteries that made up this fascinating saint's life.

Download or read book JOHN THE BAPTIST written by Frederick Brotherton Meyer and published by Christian Publishing House. This book was released on 2022-03-17 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: JOHN THE BAPTIST, son of Zechariah and Elizabeth, the forerunner of Jesus, came preaching just before Jesus’ ministry, announcing the passage of one and heralding the coming of another. John began his preaching in the Wilderness of Judea, saying: “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.” (Matt. 3:1-2) He wore clothing of camel hair and a leather girdle belt around his loins, similar to that of the prophet Elijah. Meyer tells the historical account of the prophet’s life, winding historical insights with spiritual lessons. The outcome is an inspiring account of John the Baptist that moves readers to take note just as John the Baptist commanded: “Behold the Lamb of God!”
