Book Synopsis Samson and His Faith by : Vincent Cheung
Download or read book Samson and His Faith written by Vincent Cheung and published by Vincent Cheung. This book was released on 2014-11-25 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In many people's thinking, Samson is inseparably connected to Delilah, and they seem to think that the entirety of his life as recorded in Scripture has to do with his moral weaknesses and sexual lusts. Thus they say that he is the classic case of one who has "charisma without character." However, that is an incomplete and inaccurate portrayal of his life. The Scripture's own commentary on Samson is that he was a man of faith, one of whom "the world was not worthy" (Hebrews 11:38).
Download or read book Gospelbound written by Collin Hansen and published by Multnomah. This book was released on 2021-04-06 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A profound exploration of how to hold on to hope when our unchanging faith collides with a changing culture, from two respected Christian storytellers and thought leaders. “Offers neither spin control nor image maintenance for the evangelical tribe, but genuine hope.”—Russell Moore, president of ERLC As the pressures of health warnings, economic turmoil, and partisan politics continue to rise, the influence of gospel-focused Christians seems to be waning. In the public square and popular opinion, we are losing our voice right when it’s needed most for Christ’s glory and the common good. But there’s another story unfolding too—if you know where to look. In Gospelbound, Collin Hansen and Sarah Eekhoff Zylstra counter these growing fears with a robust message of resolute hope for anyone hungry for good news. Join them in exploring profound stories of Christians who are quietly changing the world in the name of Jesus—from the wild world of digital media to the stories of ancient saints and unsung contemporary activists on the frontiers of justice and mercy. Discover how, in these dark times, the light of Jesus shines even brighter. You haven’t heard the whole story. And that’s good news.
Book Synopsis Samson and the Pirate Monks by : Nate Larkin
Download or read book Samson and the Pirate Monks written by Nate Larkin and published by Thomas Nelson. This book was released on 2007-02-18 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With no-holds-barred honesty and poignant storytelling, Nate Larkin introduces a model of community and friendship that is reinvigorating men's ministry across the country, a model he calls The Samson Society. Too many men see the biblical hero Samson as their model for manhood--a rugged individualist of the highest order. Yet, Samson's solitary successes were eventually overcome by moral weaknesses. Larkin, through the story of his own past and the stories of those in The Samson Society, offers a radical, refreshing alternative.

Download or read book Samson written by Joachim Acolatse and published by Tate Publishing. This book was released on 2010-08 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The account of Samson is filled with miraculous feats that have enthralled Bible students for years. But his supernatural acts have not sheltered him from the harsh criticism frequently levied by the modern church. With accusations ranging from rage problems to sexual immorality, how could Samson have been Israel's agent of God? How does he then appear among the list of the most faithful? Was his supposed weakness not used mightily for God's glory? In Samson – God's Mighty Man of Faith, author Joachim Acolatse defends this biblical figure against the searing charges brought against him by modern preachers. Through attention to detail and scriptural analysis, Joachim shows readers that there is a better explanation for Samson's account. Could it be that God had always intended for him to live exactly as he did? That Samson was a holy man, constantly engaged in God's purpose? Join Joachim in this unique look at one of the most controversial characters in biblical history. Some say he was a cruel and lustful warrior—but Joachim contends that he was a mighty man of faith.
Download or read book Samson Xfile written by Ruthven Roy and published by eBookIt.com. This book was released on 2014-10-10 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "His father and mother did not know that this was from the Lord; for he was seeking a pretext to act against the Philistines" — Judges 14:4, NRSV. It is most alarming that this ignorance was not only the misfortune of Samson's parents and his people, Israel, but it is also reflected in the Christian tradition. This tradition has perpetuated an incorrect, promiscuous view of this hero of faith by failing to consider the gracious outworking of God's peculiar providence and sovereign will. Truly, this unconventional masterpiece is filled with surprising truth packages that prompt faith and bring fresh hope to life. In this volume, Dr Roy takes you into a very intriguing journey through the window of this X-file (Judges 14:4), to unveil the wonderful workings of God's mysterious purpose in the life of his childhood hero, Samson. You will be greatly amazed, as he was, when you come face to face with yourself in the life of Samson. There you will discover that God's guiding providence is able to work out, and through, all situations--the Xfile in your life--for your present and eternal good, and His glory.

Download or read book Samson written by Pnina Galpaz-Feller and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2006 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story of Samson in the Bible is told in just four chapters of the Book of Judges, but the story of his life is composed of a mosaic of events. This book examines many aspects of the unique figure of Samson: Samson as the chosen of God, who is destined to save the Israelites from Philistine oppression, and who ultimately dies with the Philistines; Samson, who appears on the stage of history as a promising leader but whose leadership fails; Samson the dissolute Nazirite; a powerful man who rips apart a lion as though it were a lamb, who uproots the gates of the city of Gaza and pulls down a pagan temple - but at the same time he succumbs to his women and is ruled by them. This book invites the reader to contemplate Samson's highly contradictory personality, to take up moral issues, and to reflect upon love and betrayal, life and death, family and society - subjects that have concerned people from antiquity to the present.

Book Synopsis Power of Samson: Guardian of God's Secret Code by : Donald Alexander
Download or read book Power of Samson: Guardian of God's Secret Code written by Donald Alexander and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2020-02-18 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Initially setting out to disprove God's existence, a scientist stumbles upon mysterious Biblical codes and patterns that point to God's fingerprint. Through his personal testimony, he proves that these incredible discoveries reveal undeniable, reproducible, objective evidence that God Exists. 52 embedded associations connect Samson to Jesus, in the same order, in just 96 verses in the Book of Judges. The probability of this happening by chance, is smaller than finding a single atom on Planet Earth by chance! Yet numerous other code sequences are also embedded in the lives of a Great Cloud of Witnesses including Joseph, Samson, David, Jonah, Elisha, Moses, and Joshua in the same order as those in the life of Christ. How could numerous independent authors have known about the steps of Christ in such detail, hundreds to over a thousand years in advance? The Author behind these accounts somehow can see events in the distant future. How can this be? Could He be the Omniscient One called God?
Download or read book Samson written by Shawn Hoffman and published by Thomas Nelson. This book was released on 2013-11-05 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “You are a man who has vowed to protect his family, even at the cost of your own life. So you have no other choice. . . . You must fight, Samson. You must.” The year is 1941, and Samson Abrams makes a life-or-death decision that lands him, and his entire family, in the notorious concentration camp Auschwitz. When Samson is recognized by Dr. Josef Mengele and Commandant Rudolf Höss as a former boxing champion, he is ordered box for their entertainment. A win means extra rations, but the penalty for losing is death in the gas chambers. One question haunts Samson as he and his family face one atrocity after another: Where is God in the face of such evil? An unexpected friendship between the Jewish Samson and the Polish Catholic priest Maximilian Kolbe challenges Samson to examine what little is left of his faith, but will it give him strength when he needs it most? Based on true stories, Samson: A Savior Will Rise blends Shawn Hoffman’s thorough research with a compelling narrative that provokes questions about faith, hope, and love.
Book Synopsis The David Story: A Translation with Commentary of 1 and 2 Samuel by : Robert Alter
Download or read book The David Story: A Translation with Commentary of 1 and 2 Samuel written by Robert Alter and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2009-10-21 with total page 452 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A masterpiece of contemporary Bible translation and commentary."—Los Angeles Times Book Review, Best Books of 1999 Acclaimed for its masterful new translation and insightful commentary, The David Story is a fresh, vivid rendition of one of the great works in Western literature. Robert Alter's brilliant translation gives us David, the beautiful, musical hero who slays Goliath and, through his struggles with Saul, advances to the kingship of Israel. But this David is also fully human: an ambitious, calculating man who navigates his life's course with a flawed moral vision. The consequences for him, his family, and his nation are tragic and bloody. Historical personage and full-blooded imagining, David is the creation of a literary artist comparable to the Shakespeare of the history plays.
