Book Synopsis Signs, Wonders, and Gifts by : Jennifer Eyl
Download or read book Signs, Wonders, and Gifts written by Jennifer Eyl and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2019-06-03 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In much of the scholarship on Paul, activities such as speaking in tongues, prophecy, and miracle healings are either ignored or treated as singular occurrences. Typically, these practices are categorized in such a way that shields Paul and his followers from the influence of so-called paganism. In Signs, Wonders, and Gifts, Jennifer Eyl masterfully argues that Paul did, in fact, engage in range of divinatory and wonder-working practices that were widely recognized and accepted across the ancient Mediterranean. Eyl redescribes, reclassifies, and recontextualizes Paul's repertoire vis-á-vis such widespread, similar practices. Situating these activities within the larger framework of reciprocity that dominated human-divine relationships in antiquity, she demonstrates that divine powers and divine communication were bestowed as benefactions toward Paul and his gentile followers in proportion to their faithfulness and loyalty.
Book Synopsis Are Miraculous Gifts for Today? by : Zondervan,
Download or read book Are Miraculous Gifts for Today? written by Zondervan, and published by Zondervan Academic. This book was released on 2011-10-11 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are Miraculous Gifts for Today? takes you to the heart of one of the most dividing questions in the Church today: how are the Holy Spirit’s miracles at work among God's people now? Is he still actively giving the gifts of tongues, prophecy, and healing that fill the book of Acts? Is he driving out demons when Christians command them to flee? Or are these events confined to the time of the early church and the apostles? This volume of the Counterpoints series provides an impartial format for comparing the four main positions on present-day miracles (including the history and distinctions between the three positions that affirm miraculous gifts) with voice also given to a large sector of open-but-cautious evangelicals: Cessationist: there are no miraculous gifts of the Holy Spirit today. Pentecostal: gifts are intended for today, with certain nuances focused on baptism and speaking in tongues. Charismatic: gifts are intended for today and should be actively practiced. Third Wave: gifts are intended for today, with greater emphasis on baptism and less on tongues. This thought-provoking book will help Christians on every side of the miraculous gifts debate to better understand their own position and the positions of others. The Counterpoints series presents a comparison and critique of scholarly views on topics important to Christians that are both fair-minded and respectful of the biblical text. Each volume is a one-stop reference that allows readers to evaluate the different positions on a specific issue and form their own, educated opinion.
Book Synopsis The Gift of Wonder by : Christine Aroney-Sine
Download or read book The Gift of Wonder written by Christine Aroney-Sine and published by InterVarsity Press. This book was released on 2019-03-26 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 2020 Foreword INDIES Book of the Year Award Finalists - Body, Mind and Spirit I choose to breathe in the wonder of God's eternal love, And dance to the rhythm of eternal breath, Listening to the whispers calling me to slow down and take notice. I choose to absorb the beauty of the divine presence, to delight in the Creator of all things and relish the delight God takes in me. Can you imagine a God who dances with shouts of joy, laughs when you laugh, loves to play, enjoys life, and invites us to join the fun? Like many of us, Christine Sine had spent many years with an image of God who was "a very serious, workaholic type of God." And even when her theology told her this was not true, she struggled to live into this new way of thinking. What she needed was a childlike spirituality. In this book, Christine Sine, online host of the Godspace community, invites us to pay attention to childlike characteristics that have the power to reshape us. Each chapter addresses a childlike characteristic to embrace, including delight, playfulness, imagination, awe and wonder, love of nature, the ability to live in the present, and much more. Fresh spiritual practices that engage all our senses help us live a new spiritual life that embraces the wonder and joy that God intends for us.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout his letters, the apostle Paul consistently references signs, wonders, visions, miracles, divine healings, prophecies, and speaking in tongues.

Furthermore, the book situates such practices within a framework of reciprocity that dominated human-divine relationships in antiquity. Insofar as Paul extends miraculous abilities to his gentile followers, these wondrous abilities come in proportion to their faithfulness.

Book Synopsis Activating the Gifts of the Spirit Handbook: Becoming Proficient in a Signs & Wonders Ministry by : George Pantages
Download or read book Activating the Gifts of the Spirit Handbook: Becoming Proficient in a Signs & Wonders Ministry written by George Pantages and published by . This book was released on 2019-09 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the 47 years I have served the Lord, I have found that there are very few folks that are proficient in using the "Gifts of the Spirit". We can explain it, teach it, and even write about it without ever demonstrating what we have learned. How then are we expected to move in this realm if there are no mentors available to teach us from experience?ACTIVATING THE GIFTS OF THE SPIRIT was written with the purpose of combining biblical theory with everyday practice. It is a nuts and bolts presentation of an area that is easier to understand than made out to be. The testimonies alone will be inspirational enough to get you started and hopefully become proficient in the "miraculous".

Download or read book The Gifts written by Steven D Graham and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2024-03-07 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The nature and availability of spiritual gifts can be confusing. Often, new believers study signs, wonders and miracles without knowing their purpose. Steven D. Graham, a veteran pastor and Bible teacher, wrote this book for those who earnestly want all God truly has to offer. In it, he establishes a biblical basis for understanding the reason for spiritual gifts and, in the process, explores what many find to be three of the most confusing chapters of the Bible: 1 Corinthians 12, 13, and 14. He answers questions about the "signs, wonders, and miracles" of the Bible and how they fit into God's plan (and therefore, His plan for you and me). By drawing on a sound study of God's Word, he leads new believers on the right path toward growth in Christ and away from the misguided approach that so many have taken. God is the creator of language, and as such, He is consistent, noncontradictory, and purposeful in all that He does. That purpose involves you and me and is revealed to those willing to search out these things diligently and skillfully.
Book Synopsis Understanding Spiritual Gifts by : Sam Storms
Download or read book Understanding Spiritual Gifts written by Sam Storms and published by Zondervan. This book was released on 2020-09-01 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What are spiritual gifts? Storms has spent several decades teaching on the topic of the spiritual gifts and equipping believers in the faithful practice of God's gifts. Yet there remains a great deal of confusion about the nature of the gifts and how they best function in the body of Christ. In this comprehensive guide to the spiritual gifts, Storms addresses the many bizarre and misleading interpretations while confronting the tendency to downplay the urgency of spiritual gifts for Christian living and ministry. He explains how spiritual gifts--both the more miraculous and the everyday--are given to build up the body of Christ. God has graciously provided these "manifestations of the Spirit" so that believers might encourage, edify, strengthen, instruct, and console one another, all with a view to an ever-increasing, incremental transformation into the image of Jesus Christ. Throughout this guide, Sam Storms unpacks the glorious truth that there is a supernatural and divine energy or power that fills and indwells the body and soul of every Christian believer. Understanding Spiritual Gifts is useful as a reference to address common questions about the gifts, but it also serves as a training manual for using and exercising the gifts in ministry. It is perfect for any individual or group who wants to grow in their understanding of spiritual gifts for today.
Book Synopsis Signs, Wonders and a Baptist Preacher by : Chad Norris
Download or read book Signs, Wonders and a Baptist Preacher written by Chad Norris and published by Baker Books. This book was released on 2013-03-15 with total page 157 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Baptist Preacher Takes the "Weird" Out of the Supernatural Demonstrating humor, candor, and personal vulnerability, this Southern Baptist preacher offers an entertaining, non-religious look at the Holy Spirit. He shares transparently, recounting his own history of depression and panic attacks until Jesus rescued him and showed him how to do the works of the Father. As Norris explains, "I had no paradigm for that." Then he challenges readers to engage with the supernatural. Even though Jesus said we will do even greater things than he did, we don't. Norris's engaging narrative style lowers readers' defenses and opens their minds to the idea that these "greater things" are more attainable than they think. Because we are loved more than we imagine, says Norris, we are more capable of doing the Father's works than we have ever considered.

Book Synopsis The Spiritual Gifts Handbook by : Randy Clark
Download or read book The Spiritual Gifts Handbook written by Randy Clark and published by Chosen Books. This book was released on 2018-03-20 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Foundational Teaching from a Charismatic Healing Minister and a Catholic Scholar International healing minister Randy Clark teams up with Mary Healy, a respected Catholic scholar, to show not only that the gifts of the Spirit still exist today, but that they are not optional; they are the necessary tools God has given for both building his Church and spreading the Gospel. With wisdom and practical insight, Clark and Healy walk you through biblical texts, dispel misconceptions, and show that there is an endless variety of gifts. They also show how the gifts are not just for a select few, but distributed freely by the Holy Spirit among believers. After laying this foundation, the authors reveal how you can activate the gifts in your own life and use them to benefit others. In this hurting world, you can give people more than just a message--you can help usher them into an encounter with God.
Book Synopsis Signs & Wonders by : Augusto L. Perez
Download or read book Signs & Wonders written by Augusto L. Perez and published by . This book was released on 2015-09-04 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is nothing more tragic than to see the people of God living their lives devoid of the presence and power of God, believing that is the norm. It is sad to see churches that have gotten so used to having services without the manifest presence of God and the intervention of the Holy Spirit, that if God removed His Spirit from their midst, they would have a hard time telling the difference. Yet, a distant rumbling is being heard by those servants to whom God, in His divine sovereignty, has chosen to reveal it to. Perhaps the sound of the approaching storm, an outpouring of the Spirit of such dramatic proportions that will cause the greatest ingathering of souls this world has ever seen. This period will coincide with increasing turbulent times and horrible events that will cause the courage of many to falter. Millions will flock to the churches seeking help for multitudes of needs, but the church in its present condition cannot handle what is coming. These are just some of the reasons why I wrote this book. This book was written by someone who does not have just head knowledge, but someone who has walked in the realm of supernatural signs and wonders for thirty years. The difference is that as you read the information in this book, it will bring an impartation to your life to see sign and wonders in your life. I am only one of many God is raising up at this time to speak out and bring clarity to some important areas that have been ignored, rejected and neglected by the present day church leadership. The ministries of the apostle and prophet, which are being restored to their original place and function in the church, will bring healing and restoration to the Bride of Christ preparing her to take her rightful place in the world, as the glory of God is manifested on the earth. As this army of believers is raised up, trained and released into the great harvest, a revival of great proportions will take place, sweeping multitudes into the Kingdom. The transformation of the church from its present condition will be astounding. This book was written to help train believers in the area of supernatural signs and wonders, and it is loaded with practical information and valuable nuggets on important topics not easily found elsewhere. God has always used supernatural signs and wonders to authenticate a person, a message or an event. In the near future there will be signs and wonders happening in unprecedented numbers all over the world, as the end-time harvest takes place. If you want to learn more and move into the supernatural, this book is for you.
