Book Synopsis Stumbling Toward Obedience by : David R. Hawkins
Download or read book Stumbling Toward Obedience written by David R. Hawkins and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2013-07-05 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jesus demonstrated complete submission to the Fathers will to the point of His confident assertion, I always do those things that please My Father (John 8:29). He gave Himself in humility at Calvary to satisfy Gods wrath against all sin, as well as all sinners, and declared from the cross, It is finished. He then experienced death but rose in victory over death, thus proving His claims to divinity and giving to all His spiritual descendants resurrection power for daily living. So what is to be our response to all Christ Jesus is and all that He has suffered and accomplished on our behalf? What should be our lifes focus, our objective, our agenda, and our passion? Obedience to the things our Lord and Savior has commanded. Obedience is our duty, to be sure, but it is more than that. It is the way we express our thanksgiving for what Christ has done for us. It is gratefulness lived out on a daily basis. This kind of living involves a consistent orientation toward laying aside personal or selfish desires and agendas that bring us temporal gratification. Instead, we embrace what Jesus Christ tells us to do: to proclaim the gospel of hope to those who know it not. This is the highest expression of gratefulness from a life made new by the living Lord. Your culture, your communities, your friends, your co-workers, and your family members need to hear a word from God. You and I are the delivery persons for Gods message. We are the spokespersons for the gospel of Jesus Christ! We are the ones to whom God has said, Arise, go to Nineveh. Our Nineveh, dear people of God, is the lost people around us.

Book Synopsis Paul, The Apostle of Obedience by : Jason A. Myers
Download or read book Paul, The Apostle of Obedience written by Jason A. Myers and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2022-08-25 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jason A. Myers reconsiders the meaning and context of the phrase “the obedience of faith” in Rom 1:5 and how it contributes to the theme of obedience in Romans. In contrast to previous studies that have nearly exclusively focused on the obedience language in light of the Hebrew Bible and Second Temple literature, Myers instead investigates how this language functioned within the Greco-Roman world, particularly in the discourse of the Roman Empire. By studying both the Greco-Roman contexts and the use of obedience language during the Empire, Myers sheds fresh light on the meaning of “the obedience of faith,” and concludes that such examination helps contemporary readers understand how Gentiles in Paul's audience would have heard and received the terms and images relating to obedience. In addition, he argues that Paul's use of obedience language, both at the beginning and end of Romans (1:5; 15:18), serves as rhetorical bookends, and signals a theme that is central to Paul's purpose in Romans and integral to his calling as an apostle to the Gentiles.

Download or read book The Five Simple Servants written by Dee O. Rowe and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2016-12 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Lord urges us to work while it is the day for when night comes no man can work (see John 9:4). When darkness falls, the return of the Messiah will dawn upon us, and the wrath of God will descend upon this earth. The Body of Christ must not be careless, lacking a sense of urgency and remain in a fog of delusion, concerning the nearness of the hour. Pacified by the "good" things in this life, we dare not linger in a hypnotic state and miss the most important event of all. Journey with the author, Dee O. Rowe, as we uncover a riveting biblical study of the apocalyptic prophecies, which must unfold upon this earth before the return of the Messiah. The author will shed light through compelling Scriptural evidence, explaining how we can better prepare ourselves and help us understand that TIME will soon be no more. The Lord's return is no longer near, but it is about to take place. THE KING IS COMING!

Book Synopsis A Pure Theory of Democracy by : Antonio García-Trevijano
Download or read book A Pure Theory of Democracy written by Antonio García-Trevijano and published by University Press of America. This book was released on 2009-09-30 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'This is not a democracy,' Antonio Garc'a-Trevijano denounces in the first pages of this book. To confront the great lie that Europe does have democratic regimes, a lie rooted in people's confounding of the liberties they enjoy with the political freedom that they lack, the author builds a realistic theory of democracy to end the false idea that corruption, state crime, and public immorality are democracy's (undesirable) products and not the natural and inevitable fruits of oligarchic regimes. Thanks to a superb review of the events that mark the history of democracy, the author reveals the obstacles that, from the 17th century English revolution, the United States' War of Independence, and the French Revolution, opposed political freedom, deviating old Europe's democratic possibilities toward the current parties' state. There exist important theories of the state and of constitution, but none that can be called a theory of democracy. Antonio Garc'a-Trevijano's original theory, a modern synthesis of Rousseau's pure democracy and Montesquieu's political freedom, responds to European need for a theory of democracy as a real alternative to the corrupted parties' regime that was engendered by Western pragmatism during the Cold War.

Download or read book Brass Heavens written by Paul Tautges and published by Cruciform Press. This book was released on 2013 with total page 87 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Does it ever seem like God is not listening? Sometimes we're tempted to wonder if God can hear us. After months or even years of praying over a particular person or situation, we look for evidence that God is getting our message or even paying attention, and we can't find much. Why is that? Why do the heavens sometimes seem as hard and reflective as brass? Doesn't God love us and care for us? Isn't he all-powerful? What's going on? In Brass Heavens author, pastor, and biblical counselor Paul Tautges grounds prayer in the character of our Triune God whose very nature is to share generously his good gifts with his children. Upon that foundation, Tautges then explores six reasons why at times God appears to go silent. As we examine these causes of unanswered prayer, we discover the biblical means by which we may open God's ears to our voice once again. God has a good and holy purpose for periods of silence. He wants to test our faith that we might see for ourselves just how weak and dependent we are on him for all good things. His goal is nothing less than to heighten our spiritual sensitivities in order to draw us into more intimate fellowship with him and more faithful obedience to him.

Book Synopsis The Grace of Christ by : Eric Roessing
Download or read book The Grace of Christ written by Eric Roessing and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2016-07-29 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Martin Luther and other Reformers were instruments in Gods hand to recover the gospel in the Holy Scriptures. Nevertheless, it is an irony that, along with the gospel, there was still lawin the sense of law as rule of life, in the teaching of the Reformers. On the issue of the law, even Luther was not as consistent as was Paul the apostle. In The Grace of Christ, the saving righteousness of God which justifies the ungodly in Christ, and frees us from trusting in our righteousness is given its central place, as it is in the gospel of God (Rom. 1:1ff.). At the same time, the new creation in Christ is also given its rightful due. Following the apostles teaching, in terms of what Paul means by both justification and new creation in Christ, The Grace of Christ, like no other book, shows that both of these realities exclude any idea of the law (of Moses) as the rule of life for those in Christ. Paul is not an antinomian. The new creation in Christ is our rule (Gal. 6:15,16). Roessing does not base his position on only this one text, but rather shows how Paul consistently teaches this truth in many places and ways, even though the flesh rejects it. And Roessing is not alone in this view; he is close to that of Gerhard O. Forde, and even closer to that of Wolfhart Pannenberg. But this issue (of the believers rule) is just one of the aspects of grace covered in The Grace of Christ. For those who want to learn something of the depth of the things freely given us by God, The Grace of Christ the law in light of the Gospel, sets forth those things, so that the spiritually hungry will want to behold the grace of God in Christ as he is set forth in these pages, and to return again for more.
