Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the fundamental enigmas of our existence, and for that matter, God’s existence, is the act of creation. Has the cosmos been created ex nihilo or was it an intelligent design by God? Does God, having created the world, let it evolve and develop on its own, subject to the rules of evolution and chance; or does God intervene in every step of evolution in a deus ex machina manner? What is the role of man in creation? Is it as central as existentialism and quantum mechanics assure us: that without human consciousness interacting with energy-matter, there would not be any objects and life forms? Is man the crown of creation permanently, or once evolution forms a more effective connecting agent between spirit and energy-matter, will man be relegated to the world of fossils? The book concludes with a thorough examination of human norms, values and morals. As such, this book constitutes a comprehensive treatise on the genesis of the world, the birth of God, and the role of man.

Book excerpt: Word and Light brings religious discourse back to its senses in this provocative examination of the importance of sight and sound to religious symbols, myths, rituals, and traditions. The book examines the unexpected implications of three theses. First, religious symbols, particularly the perceptual symbols of word and light, are grounded in the senses of hearing and seeing. Second, the senses of sight and hearing generate different ranges of symbolic association important to religious discourse. Finally, differing ranges of symbolic association often are fused in the combinations, mergers, and transfers of the senses known as synesthesia. Using a series of case studies in western religious discourse, David Chidester analyzes the importance of sight and hearing especially in the work of Augustine but also in that of Philo, Arius, Athanasius, Bonaventure, and Melanchthon. He examines the dynamics of seeing, hearing, and synesthetic mergers of the senses to suggest new ways of understanding religion.

Download or read book Light of the Word written by Hans Urs Von Balthasar and published by Ignatius Press. This book was released on 2012-09-11 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is not only the Catholics who attend Sunday Mass, but also the priests who preach at Mass who feel overwhelmed by the three scripture readings in which for the most part only the first from the Old Testament and the third from the Gospel have any interconnection, while the second from the apostolic letters stands by itself. This book seeks to present the common theses that connect all three of the readings for Sundays and feasts of the Lord in the three year cycle of readings. The reflections here are meant to be theological and spiritual suggestions that the one who is preaching can develop further and from which he can select individual perspectives. Rather than seeking immediately concrete applications, Fr. von Balthasar attempts to elucidate the content which is immediately present in the passages. Organized by each Sunday and feast day of the liturgical year for years A, B, & C, these reflections are meant to be theological and spiritual suggestions that the one who is preaching can develop further and from which he can select individual perspectives.

Download or read book Let There Be Light written by Howard Smith, Ph.D. and published by New World Library. This book was released on 2010-10-04 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Let There Be Light, Howard Smith, a research astrophysicist and traditionally observant Jew, explores how modern scientific understandings of the cosmos complement Judaism's ancient mystical theology, the Kabbalah. He argues that science and religion are not only compatible, but that a healthy, productive dialogue between the two sheds light on ethics, free will, and the nature of life, while at the same time rejecting fundamentalist misinterpretation and the pseudoscience of creationism. Written for a general audience, yet supported by the most current and accurate scientific research, the book discusses topics such as modern quantum mechanics and mystical notions of awareness; how Kabbalah's ten sefirot mirror the developing phases of an inflationary universe; and the surprising parallels that exist between the Big Bang theory and Kabbalah's origin theory. Smith delves into complex ideas without resorting to jargon or mathematical equations, creating an intelligent, authoritative work accessible to all readers.

Book excerpt: What is the most effective way to grow a church? It's not a new methodology or cultural outreach strategy, it's...the Word of God. In this book, Jonathan Leeman wants you to realize that the Word, working through God's Spirit, is responsible for the growth of God's church and we need to trust it! Leeman not only informs and equips the leadership of local churches for greatest effectiveness in their preaching ministry but explains how to translate that into the life of the church throughout the week. The book also deals with two errors - not trusting the Word (resulting in a pragmatic ministry philosophy) and not living in light of the Word, (resulting in a ministry philosophy of "preaching is enough"). Reverberation explains the pulpit ministry and traces the theme of how the Word continues through the life of the church. Both theological and practical, Reverberation focuses on how the church hears, responds, discusses, implements and is transformed by the Word. No high-octane production, superstar personalities, or postmodern entreaties, just stuff that is really old, really good, and really powerful!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the Graywolf Press Nonfiction Prize, a lyrical meditation on family, place, and inheritance Names for Light traverses time and memory to weigh three generations of a family’s history against a painful inheritance of postcolonial violence and racism. In spare, lyric paragraphs framed by white space, Thirii Myo Kyaw Myint explores home, belonging, and identity by revisiting the cities in which her parents and grandparents lived. As she makes inquiries into their stories, she intertwines oral narratives with the official and mythic histories of Myanmar. But while her family’s stories move into the present, her own story—that of a writer seeking to understand who she is—moves into the past, until both converge at the end of the book. Born in Myanmar and raised in Bangkok and San Jose, Myint finds that she does not have typical memories of arriving in the United States; instead, she is haunted by what she cannot remember. By the silences lingering around what is spoken. By a chain of deaths in her family line, especially that of her older brother as a child. For Myint, absence is felt as strongly as presence. And, as she comes to understand, naming those absences, finding words for the unsaid, means discovering how those who have come before have shaped her life. Names for Light is a moving chronicle of the passage of time, of the long shadow of colonialism, and of a writer coming into her own as she reckons with her family’s legacy.

Book excerpt: Central to God’s character is the quality of holiness. Yet, even so, most people are hard-pressed to define what God’s holiness precisely is. Many preachers today avoid the topic altogether because people today don’t quite know what to do with words like “awe” or “fear.” R. C. Sproul, in this classic work, puts the holiness of God in its proper and central place in the Christian life. He paints an awe-inspiring vision of God that encourages Christian to become holy just as God is holy. Once you encounter the holiness of God, your life will never be the same.

Book excerpt: Ryan and Selena Frederick were newlyweds when they landed in Switzerland to pursue Selena's dream of training horses. Neither of them knew at the time that Ryan was living out a death sentence brought on by a worsening genetic heart defect. Soon it became clear he needed major surgery that could either save his life--or result in his death on the operating table. The young couple prepared for the worst. When Ryan survived, they both realized that they still had a future together. But the near loss changed the way they saw all that would lie ahead. They would live and love fiercely, fighting for each other and for a Christ-centered marriage, every step of the way. Fierce Marriage is their story, but more than that, it is a call for married couples to put God first in their relationship, to measure everything they do and say to each other against what Christ did for them, and to see marriage not just as a relationship they should try to keep healthy but also as one worth fighting for in every situation. With the gospel as their foundation, Ryan and Selena offer hope and practical help for common struggles in marriage, including communication problems, sexual frustration, financial stress, family tension, screen-time disconnection, and unrealistic expectations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: True poverty is not relegated only to a malnourished mind, body, or soul, but rather it is the famine of not knowing or hearing from God, and for this, there is no greater destitution. When the Light Shows Up is a revolutionary book of discovery that showcases how the wisdom of God's love, word, power, presence, and purpose clears up all contradictions. When one is exposed to the light and all darkness dispelled, hope may then take its rightful position in the heart. No more will those that hunger be left in want. No more veils or misrepresentations. For it is the Master who transforms and molds the heart like the potter and the clay, the Master who breathes life upon dead and disregarded bones, and it is the Master who draws all men.

Download or read book From Queer To Christ written by George Carneal and published by George Carneal. This book was released on 2016-08-28 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: George Carneal, author of "From Queer to Christ," grew up in the '70s, raised by a Southern Baptist minister in the ultra-conservative Bible Belt. For years he struggled with his Christian faith and a same-sex attraction. George shares his painful journey through a queer culture fantasyland filled with drag queens, drugs, and dangerous situations, a secular world at odds with homosexuality, in addition to a religious world that is hostile to homosexuals before discovering healing, joy, and peace in Christ. Perhaps sharing his journey through the eyes, and mind, of a confused child dealing with a same-sex attraction will give some insight into the pain and difficulty of navigating these two worlds. George would eventually spend 25 years immersed in the homosexual lifestyle (mostly in the Los Angeles club scene) and shares the pitfalls of that life. His story is not about glamorizing a life he once lived. This is merely his journey and what he learned along the way. Deliverance from that bondage is possible. There is hope in Christ! George is a frequent speaker at churches and conferences, has appeared on numerous television and radio broadcasts, as well as contributing quotes to online articles for LifeSite News, Christian Life Magazine, Tennessee Conservative News, and The Christian Post.

Download or read book The Word Of Light written by Maryam Hamidi and published by . This book was released on 2020-11-19 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Bible says from the beginning God created all things Good, Well he is Good so he can only create good things, more than that he created man in his own image and in his own likeness. The way he created everything was by his word, He spoke the (good)words, and (good)things came to be. Until we see sin entering this world. Where did sin and evil come from then? It couldn't come from him he is a good God and it can't come from inside of a man because man was created in God's image and he was Holy as God is Holy. So it came from the outside! It was a lie that's all that it was. just a lie!... And the lie was that we are not created in God's image and so we are not Good as he is Good. When that lie is believed evil enters the world. When a man speaks he creates just like God. So when a man speaks evil he creates evil. Why would he speak evil in the first place? From seeing and hearing something that is outside. All that man receives from the outside... An experience he has might get inside his thoughts and turn into a belief and based on that belief he starts speaking. That's where judgments come from. But who remembers the verse in the Bible that says God does not judge based on the appearances and the outside but the inside? who are you inside? Who are we all humans inside? Jesus the son of God! yes I believe that Jesus is who we truly are inside and he is the only true identity we all have no matter what background we come from what religion we have what family or country we are grown in we all have one identity and that is the son of the living God, We are all his Children made in his image Holy and blameless and that's the truth Jesus came to reveal to us.Now the moment we start judging one another based on our works or worldly gains or achievements is the moment we eat from the fruit of the knowledge of good and evil and at that very moment we die and produce sin. why should we know evil? Is God both good and evil or is he only good? As the book of Romans chapter 3 verse 20 says; through the law we gain the knowledge of sin and the more we know sin the more we produce the fruit of sin. I thought we were supposed to know God and produce the fruit of good works! that's right we were never supposed to know any evil. Before Adam and eve eat of the fruit of that tree all they had was the knowledge of God and the true God is not both good and evil he is good, the true man is also not both good and evil but only good. that's why Jesus said make the two into one. let your eye be single and your whole body will be full of light having no dark parts in you. in this book I'm going to give you what the Holy Spirit has revealed to me about the trinity and the way I do that is by taking you on a journey through the scriptures and show you the son of God both in the old and the new testament. There are so many teachings, doctrines, beliefs about the trinity but I believe it can be found in the one and only commandment Jesus gave to his disciples " Love the Lord your God and Love your neighbor as yourself" It might sound like two or three commandments but the second is just like the first and they are all one.
