Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This intriguing study shows that a religious revolt, spurred by deep divisions within the church, followed the princely and parlementary rebellions of the French civil war known as the Fronde. The cures vied with the crown, the bishops, and the Jesuits for control of the parishes. In examining the Fronde, Golden demonstrates the connection between Janenism, Richerism, and ecclesiastical politics and how it shaped the rule of Louis XIV and the role of the cures in the French Revolution.

Download or read book The Man Who Would Be God written by Phil Arms and published by Anomalos Publishing. This book was released on 2009-07-01 with total page 425 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prophecy foretells the coming of an Antichrist, a powerful, charming but evil dictatorial leader who appears during a time of worldwide desperation and deprivation and provides a chaotic world with hope. His coming will not be the result of a gentle, bloodless coup or an antiseptic political evolution. It will be accomplished and accompanied by brutality and bloodshed on an unprecedented scale. This remarkable individual with supernatural diplomatic skill will dazzle a desperate generation and bring peace to a world staggering on the precipice of anarchy and annihilation. Hence, he will be lauded as history?'s greatest Peacebroker. The Antichrist, the one non-fictional personality portrayed in this book, according to the prophets, will come to power in a dead-to-truth world and most will flock to this remarkable man as the proverbial moths to the flame. They will be drawn to his warmth and light only to be destroyed by his fire.Using the actual biblically prophesied timeline as a plumb line this fictional account occurs just as the man of sin begins his conspiratorial assent to become an all-powerful world ruler. The story answers the oft posed question by many students of prophecy who read of his meteoric rise to power and ask, How could this happen Having spent the last 35 years as a Biblical preacher, teacher and researcher, Phil Arms remains true to both the tenets of the faith and the basic eschatological facts revealed in the Word of God.For Christians, books such as this stimulate faith in God?'s prophetic Word and encourages anticipation of that Blessed Hope. For those without Christ, books such as this, accompanied by the godly witness left by raptured believers, will be among the few pointers to Truth for those trapped in the tribulation holocaust. It will help them understand what is happening to their world and why and what to do to escape the wrath to come.
Download or read book The Rebel Christ written by Michael Coren and published by Canterbury Press. This book was released on 2022-11-30 with total page 141 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Once the darling of conservative Catholicism and evangelicalism, the outspoken broadcaster and journalist Michael Coren had what he terms as a profound conversion and began embracing the issues he had previously judged. It cost him his lucrative broadcasting career and made him the target of vitriol, but he found freedom in the radical and progressive nature of the gospel and is today its champion. In The Rebel Christ he explores what Jesus said about the pressing issues of his and our day. Jesus may not have mentioned sexuality, but welcomed outsiders and the marginalized; he never spoke of social security systems, but did criticize the wealthy and complacent and called for the poor to be protected; he didn’t side with the powerful but did condemn those who judged and exploited others and turned their eyes away from those in need and from the cry for justice. This was Jesus the rebel, Christ the radical, who turned the world upside down and who today demands that his followers do the same.

This book was released on 2016-04-04 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Often when the subject of religion and the American Revolution is written about or discussed, people fall into one of two camps. The first proclaims that America was founded as a Christian nation based upon the Bible and its teachings. Meanwhile, the other declares that America was created as a completely secular country and that Christianity, the Bible, God, and Jesus had absolutely nothing to do with it. In "Rebellion to Tyrants is Obedience to God: The Role of Christianity in the American Revolution," Daniel S. Stackhouse, Jr. argues that Christianity played a significant role in the creation of the American republic. While acknowledging that the revolution birthed a nation with a secular Constitution and therefore a secular government, Stackhouse also presents evidence that Christian thought, preaching, and practice helped to create and sustain colonial resistance to British policies and lead to the founding of the United States of America. ..".a significant work that takes a solid position against those who argue outlying positions that America was either a wholly secular creation, or that America was always governed by Christian precepts." - Amazon.com
Book Synopsis God's Response to Man's Rebellion by : Jerry Waite
Download or read book God's Response to Man's Rebellion written by Jerry Waite and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2010-11 with total page 151 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It would seem that God still treats nations that have known Him and rebelled against Him like He did Israel in the past. England sent missionaries all over the world, but when their church buildings were empty and they no longer worshipped God through Jesus Christ, they lost control of their colonies and have become bankrupt. Today the US seeks to ban the use of God's name even in prayer. We are no longer looked on as a peace giving nation. This book is a summary of Old Testament history that I taught teenagers many years. It is from the perspective of one trained as a scientist who believes God's Word is true. I have applied my conclusions from my paper "The Census of Israelite Men in the Exodus from Egypt," Vetus Testamentum 60, no.3, 2010. My warning is to escape God's penalty for rebellion against Him.
Download or read book Rebellion written by Kenneth John Marks and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2012-03 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using his strong background in the Scripture mixed with a complex and rich imagination, Kenneth John Marks sets out to tell a dramatic but biblically rooted account of evil's origin in the universe. He does this largely through children's perspectives, which adds a layer of wonder and innocence to the narration that contrasts effectively with some of the less-than-innocent characters and dramatic twists. What starts off as a simple tale deepens into a riveting story of evil versus good, Lucifer's followers against God's, which culminates in an unforgettable battle between Lucifer as a seven-headed dragon and the Destroyer that burns and pierces him. Readers will enjoy the author's skillful story telling and poetic prose, such as "the noonday sun reached with bright shining fingers." Even more importantly, many readers will see their faith and life choices mirrored in the characters, inspiring prayerful self-examination and reflection.

Book Synopsis Until You Rebel... by : Emmanuel Oghene
Download or read book Until You Rebel... written by Emmanuel Oghene and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2012-07-25 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rebellion is abhorred by rulers and Christians and perhaps, everyone, despite the fact that they are all engaged in it, under different guises. Rebellion is an inevitable route God meant for man to arrive the palace of relevance, recognition and respect. Individual mannerisms might differ but all recognized and relevant individuals who have ever lived are rebels or are engaged in rebellion in one form or the other at different times of their lives. Perhaps, ‘no rebellion, no relevance’ – as rebellion has resounding reward. Joseph became relevant because he did not follow in the traditional heritage of shepherd that the Hebrews were famous for in his generation. Jesus became relevant because He made a marked departure from the traditional Jewish religion as it was known at the time. Find out how you can benefit from God-authored and sponsored rebellion to become and remain relevant in your lifetime. There is something seemingly rebellious God planned that you should do to become relevant inevitably in this life and in the life to come.

Download or read book Divine Rebels written by Deena Guzder and published by Chicago Review Press. This book was released on 2011-05 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In an effort to reclaim the fundamental principles of Christianity, moving it away from religious right-wing politics and towards the teachings of Jesus, the American Christian activists profiled in this book agitate for a society free from racism, patriarchy, bigotry, retribution, ecocide, torture, poverty, and militarism. These activists view their faith as a personal commitment with public implications; their world consists of people of religious faith protecting the weak and safeguarding the sacred. Recounting social justice activists on the frontlines of the Christian Left since the 1950s--including Daniel Berrigan, Roy Bourgeois, and SueZann Bosler--this book articulates their faith-based alternative to the mainstream conservative religious agenda and liberal cynicism and describes a long-standing American tradition, which began with the nation's earliest Quaker abolitionists.
Book Synopsis The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom by : Thomas H. Reilly
Download or read book The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom written by Thomas H. Reilly and published by University of Washington Press. This book was released on 2011-07-01 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Occupying much of imperial China’s Yangzi River heartland and costing more than twenty million lives, the Taiping Rebellion (1851-64) was no ordinary peasant revolt. What most distinguished this dramatic upheaval from earlier rebellions were the spiritual beliefs of the rebels. The core of the Taiping faith focused on the belief that Shangdi, the high God of classical China, had chosen the Taiping leader, Hong Xiuquan, to establish his Heavenly Kingdom on Earth. How were the Taiping rebels, professing this new creed, able to mount their rebellion and recruit multitudes of followers in their sweep through the empire? Thomas Reilly argues that the Taiping faith, although kindled by Protestant sources, developed into a dynamic new Chinese religion whose conception of its sovereign deity challenged the legitimacy of the Chinese empire. The Taiping rebels denounced the divine pretensions of the imperial title and the sacred character of the imperial office as blasphemous usurpations of Shangdi’s title and position. In place of the imperial institution, the rebels called for restoration of the classical system of kingship. Previous rebellions had declared their contemporary dynasties corrupt and therefore in need of revival; the Taiping, by contrast, branded the entire imperial order blasphemous and in need of replacement. In this study, Reilly emphasizes the Christian elements of the Taiping faith, showing how Protestant missionaries built on earlier Catholic efforts to translate Christianity into a Chinese idiom. Prior studies of the rebellion have failed to appreciate how Hong Xiuquan’s interpretation of Christianity connected the Taiping faith to an imperial Chinese cultural and religious context. The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom shows how the Bible--in particular, a Chinese translation of the Old Testament--profoundly influenced Hong and his followers, leading them to understand the first three of the Ten Commandments as an indictment of the imperial order. The rebels thus sought to destroy imperial culture along with its institutions and Confucian underpinnings, all of which they regarded as blasphemous. Strongly iconoclastic, the Taiping followers smashed religious statues and imperially approved icons throughout the lands they conquered. By such actions the Taiping Rebellion transformed--at least for its followers but to some extent for all Chinese--how Chinese people thought about religion, the imperial title and office, and the entire traditional imperial and Confucian order. This book makes a major contribution to the study of the Taiping Rebellion and to our understanding of the ideology of both the rebels and the traditional imperial order they opposed. It will appeal to scholars in the fields of Chinese history, religion, and culture and of Christian theology and church history.
