Book Synopsis War and Negative Revelation by : Michael S. Yandell
Download or read book War and Negative Revelation written by Michael S. Yandell and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2022-03-21 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the concrete experience of war, Michael S. Yandell constructs a phenomenology of “negative revelation” in which false or distorted claims of goodness and justice disintegrate, becoming meaningless. Yandell argues that the disintegration of meaning in war is itself a meaningful experience; “revealing” comes to signify the presence of goodness and justice through the profound experience of their absence. The heart of this work adds a layer of complexity or depth to the term “moral injury” as a negative revelation. Yandell emphasizes the context and logic of war itself beyond the actions of individuals, paying specific attention to the U.S. led Global War on Terror. Moral injury as a negative revelation is a disintegration of false normative claims of goodness and justice, as well as a disintegration of one’s sense of self oriented toward those normative claims. This disintegration is prompted by the recognition of life in the midst of war’s diminishment of life.

Book Synopsis Four Views on the Book of Revelation by : Zondervan,
Download or read book Four Views on the Book of Revelation written by Zondervan, and published by Zondervan Academic. This book was released on 2010-08-03 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Of all the books of the Bible, few are as fascinating or as intimidating as Revelation. Four grim horsemen, the Antichrist, the ten-horned beast, the ultimate battle at Armageddon, the "mark of the beast." It's no wonder that these images have griped the imagination of so many--and have been variously interpreted as symbolizing everything from Hitler and Gorbachev to credit cards and the Internet. Is the book of Revelation a blueprint for the future? A book of powerful symbolic imagery with warnings for the church? Is it essentially an imaginative depiction of historical events in the first century? Four Views on the Book of Revelation explores four interpretations of the book of the Apocalypse: Preterist – a historical interpretation, arguing that most of John’s prophecies occurred in the first century, soon after his writing of them. Idealist – a spiritual or symbolic interpretation, arguing that the events in Revelation are not literal, and that apocalyptic literature requires a different approach than the Gospels or Epistles. Classical dispensationalism – a literal interpretation based on a reading of Revelation that pays close attention to the rules of grammar and the separate eras of covenantal history. Progressive dispensationalism – a modification of classical that has its root in the understanding of Christ's reign beginning immediately after the resurrection. 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 Understanding the Greatest War Campaign Ever Conceived by : Joseph J Frazier
Download or read book Understanding the Greatest War Campaign Ever Conceived written by Joseph J Frazier and published by . This book was released on 2019-03-22 with total page 818 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This extremely unique work defines spiritual warfare in a way never written before. It is uniquely Bible centered and takes the reader from Genesis to Revelation to scripturally document spiritual warfare without academic commentaries, artistic liberties, or personal opinions. It is an exhaustive resource of over 800 pages that brilliantly details the relationship of physical and spiritual warfare strictly in the context of the Bible. King Solomon's Book of Proverbs establishes the foundation of this magnificent manuscript and it is his wisdom that provides clarity of the war before all humanity. Solomon's work identifies the forces that make-up five powerful defenders of the positive forces warring against 25 aggressors of the negative forces. In essence, he provides the substance of the "invisible" attributes that the apostle Paul speaks of in Romans 1:20 and then elaborates on in Ephesians 6:11-18. With this backdrop, the full effect of spiritual warfare is exquisitely explained by scriptural references and example after example taken from every book of the Bible. Scriptures, charts, tables, and graphics are all used to form definitive illustrations of the warring attributes that are often referred to as the Biblical "good" and "evil" or popular forces of "light" and "darkness". Moreover, this extraordinary resource specifically defines what is in the "harvest" that Jesus spoke of when He said, "...The harvest truly is plentiful, but the laborers are few" (Matthew 9:37). It informs the reader, in the context of war, how the influences of the positive and negative forces affect the harvest. Further, this resource explains why so many people fall as collateral damage in spiritual war by their ignorance (Hosea 4:6). It clarifies why God's judgement is impartial and leaves every adult soul without excuse in accordance with Romans 2:1-11. This resource provides a graphic representation of the spiritual battlefield, clarifies the importance of Biblical "discernment", and documents the impact of "calamity" and "strife" on the battlefield. Finally, this resource documents God's only authorized refuge, its organizational structure, and its function on the spiritual battlefield for educating those who desire to survive the war. This is an eye opener for many that is embedded in God's word. However, it is based on God's standing Biblical principles that man has no right to add or take away from His word which is stated in the beginning (Deuteronomy 4:2 and 12:32), the middle (Proverbs 30:5-6), and the end (Revelation 22:18) of His Holy word.You will not regret your purchase of this invaluable resource. Just like the "Understanding the Greatest War Campaign Ever Conceived - Clarity from the Book of Proverbs and How to Win" book cover is a basic color design of black and white, so is the information contained in this resource. It is written for everyone. Written by a 30-year veteran of the United States Army, Colonel Joseph Frazier's exhaustive work reveals the scriptural basis for God's special armor (Ephesians 6:10-20) on the true battlefield. From his extensive military experience, Colonel Frazier puts in context what very few authors on the market can. Using his experience in the Gulf War, he scripturally explains the "fog of war" as it visually and cognitively impairs souls on the spiritual battlefield. Colonel Frazier reveals the truth about deception, its tactics and strategies, and the true covert nature of a fierce enemy. In fact, he scripturally dissects the true aspect of war fighting down to the simple principles of: -Who or what is the enemy? -What are his or her capabilities? -What motivates him or her to fight?Based on this monumental and exhaustive resource, Colonel Frazier genuinely understands that an invisible or visible adversary cannot be defeated without knowledge of these key elements.

Book Synopsis The New American War Film by : Robert Burgoyne
Download or read book The New American War Film written by Robert Burgoyne and published by U of Minnesota Press. This book was released on 2023-10-10 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A look at how post-9/11 cinema captures the new face of war in the twenty-first century While the war film has carved out a prominent space within the history of cinema, the twenty-first century has seen a significant shift in the characteristics that define it. Serving as a roadmap to the genre’s contemporary modes of expression, The New American War Film explores how, in the wake of 9/11, both the nature of military conflict and the symbolic frameworks that surround it have been dramatically reshaped. Featuring in-depth analyses of contemporary films like The Hurt Locker, Zero Dark Thirty, Eye in the Sky, American Sniper, and others, The New American War Film details the genre’s turn away from previously foundational themes of heroic sacrifice and national glory, instead emphasizing the procedural violence of advanced military technologies and the haptic damage inflicted on individual bodies. Unfolding amid an atmosphere of profound anxiety and disillusionment, the new American war film demonstrates a breakdown of the prevailing cultural narratives that had come to characterize conflict in the previous century. With each chapter highlighting a different facet of war’s cinematic representation, The New American War Film charts society’s shifting attitudes toward violent conflict and what is broadly considered to be its acceptable repercussions. Drawing attention to changes in gender dynamics and the focus on war’s lasting psychological effects within these recent films, Robert Burgoyne analyzes how cinema both reflects and reveals the makeup of the national imaginary.
Book Synopsis Battling to the End by : René Girard
Download or read book Battling to the End written by René Girard and published by MSU Press. This book was released on 2009-12-15 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Battling to the End René Girard engages Carl von Clausewitz (1780–1831), the Prussian military theoretician who wrote On War. Clausewitz, who has been critiqued by military strategists, political scientists, and philosophers, famously postulated that "War is the continuation of politics by other means." He also seemed to believe that governments could constrain war. Clausewitz, a firsthand witness to the Napoleonic Wars, understood the nature of modern warfare. Far from controlling violence, politics follows in war's wake: the means of war have become its ends. René Girard shows us a Clausewitz who is a fascinated witness of history's acceleration. Haunted by the French-German conflict, Clausewitz clarifies more than anyone else the development that would ravage Europe. Battling to the End pushes aside the taboo that prevents us from seeing that the apocalypse has begun. Human violence is escaping our control; today it threatens the entire planet.

Book Synopsis Bloody, Brutal, and Barbaric? by : William J. Webb
Download or read book Bloody, Brutal, and Barbaric? written by William J. Webb and published by InterVarsity Press. This book was released on 2019-12-03 with total page 412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Christians cannot ignore the intersection of religion and violence. In our own Scriptures, war texts that appear to approve of genocidal killings and war rape raise hard questions about biblical ethics and the character of God. Have we missed something in our traditional readings? Identifying a spectrum of views on biblical war texts, Webb and Oeste pursue a middle path using a hermeneutic of incremental, redemptive-movement ethics.
Book Synopsis How Jesus Became God by : Bart D. Ehrman
Download or read book How Jesus Became God written by Bart D. Ehrman and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2014-03-25 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New York Times bestselling author and Bible expert Bart Ehrman reveals how Jesus’s divinity became dogma in the first few centuries of the early church. The claim at the heart of the Christian faith is that Jesus of Nazareth was, and is, God. But this is not what the original disciples believed during Jesus’s lifetime—and it is not what Jesus claimed about himself. How Jesus Became God tells the story of an idea that shaped Christianity, and of the evolution of a belief that looked very different in the fourth century than it did in the first. A master explainer of Christian history, texts, and traditions, Ehrman reveals how an apocalyptic prophet from the backwaters of rural Galilee crucified for crimes against the state came to be thought of as equal with the one God Almighty, Creator of all things. But how did he move from being a Jewish prophet to being God? In a book that took eight years to research and write, Ehrman sketches Jesus’s transformation from a human prophet to the Son of God exalted to divine status at his resurrection. Only when some of Jesus’s followers had visions of him after his death—alive again—did anyone come to think that he, the prophet from Galilee, had become God. And what they meant by that was not at all what people mean today. Written for secular historians of religion and believers alike, How Jesus Became God will engage anyone interested in the historical developments that led to the affirmation at the heart of Christianity: Jesus was, and is, God.
Book Synopsis Revelation to John's Apocalypse Unveiled and Revealed by : Jim Taylor
Download or read book Revelation to John's Apocalypse Unveiled and Revealed written by Jim Taylor and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2017-02-07 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are many people, even Christians, who will not read John's revelation letter for two reasons. First, they don't believe that it can be understood. Second, they are terrified of even thinking about reading of the deadly judgments of God that John's revelation letter portrays--that is, the appalling plagues, famines, wars, and natural disasters that John's letter discloses as having been pronounced against this present evil world, and they don't want to be any part of that, nor do they even want to be reminded of those dreadful things that they think are going to happen. Such is so sad, so very sad! One of the purposes of this book is to alleviate that fear completely, and to replace it by making the reading of John's revelation letter a time of comfort and encouragement. That shall all be accomplished by illustrating how the deadly forces of destruction that John described in his revelation letter are not decreed against the Christians--they will never fall upon God's church--but rather, they are in fact, the very powers of God that protect his church, shelter his children, and defend the Christian faith. All of that can be established by comparing the spiritual war that John witnessed in heaven with the carnal war that was fought between the Roman Empire and the church. That comparison is not difficult to establish, because both of those wars were actually the one and the same war. Once that correlation has been confirmed, Revelation becomes a letter of comfort and security, and a letter that replaces fear with hope. Another reason that even Christians will not read John's revelation letter is because they do not think that it can be understood because it is so complicated, but God does not put books in his Bible that cannot be understood. John's revelation letter can be understood, and that is the other purpose of this book, to make it understandable.

Book Synopsis Reading Revelation Responsibly by : Michael J. Gorman
Download or read book Reading Revelation Responsibly written by Michael J. Gorman and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2011-01-01 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reading Revelation Responsibly is for those who are confused by, afraid of, and/or preoccupied with the book of Revelation. In rescuing the Apocalypse from those who either completely misinterpret it or completely ignore it, Michael Gorman has given us both a guide to reading Revelation in a responsible way and a theological engagement with the text itself. He takes interpreting the book as a serious and sacred responsibility, believing how one reads, teaches, and preaches Revelation can have a powerful impact on one's own--and other people's--well-being. Gorman pays careful attention to the book's original historical and literary contexts, its connections to the rest of Scripture, its relationship to Christian doctrine and practice, and its potential to help or harm people in their life of faith. Rather than a script for the end times, Gorman demonstrates how Revelation is a script for Christian worship, witness, and mission that runs counter to culturally embedded civil religion.
Download or read book Coming Soon written by Michael Barber and published by Emmaus Road Publishing. This book was released on 2005 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is there a book of the Bible more often discussed and yet less understood than the Book of Revelation? The "seven seals." The "dragon." The "beast." The "sea of glass." The fantastic imagery found in the Book of Revelation has long captivated Christians but remains mysterious to many. In the midst of so much discussion about the end times, what does Revelation teach us about living in the present moment, with our eyes focused on the heavenly Jerusalem? Michael Barber's Coming Soon explores these questions by taking a detailed look at Revelation and its rich tapestry of prophecy, history, and biblical allusion. Barber explores the profound link between the Mass celebrated here on earth and the eternal reality of heaven, demonstrating that the Apocalypse reveals truth that has practical implications for today and points to a firm hope in tomorrow. Coming Soon is a verse-by-verse commentary on the Book of Revelation using the Revised Standard Version: Catholic Edition of the Bible. Barber provides a Catholic interpretation, which sees the liturgical background of this book of Scripture-a perspective missing in many Protestant commentaries.
