Download or read book Crazy Love written by Francis Chan and published by David C Cook. This book was released on 2013-04-01 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Revised & Updated Edition! God is love. Crazy, relentless, all-powerful love. Have you ever wondered if we're missing it? It's crazy, if you think about it. The God of the universe—the Creator of nitrogen and pine needles, galaxies and E-minor—loves us with a radical, unconditional, self-sacrificing love. And what is our typical response? We go to church, sing songs, and try not to cuss. Whether you've verbalized it yet or not, we all know something's wrong. Does something deep inside your heart long to break free from the status quo? Are you hungry for an authentic faith that addresses the problems of our world with tangible, even radical, solutions? God is calling you to a passionate love relationship with Himself. Because the answer to religious complacency isn't working harder at a list of do's and don'ts—it's falling in love with God. And once you encounter His love, as Francis describes it, you will never be the same. Because when you're wildly in love with someone, it changes everything.

Book Synopsis The Devil, Demonology, and Witchcraft by : H.A. Kelly
Download or read book The Devil, Demonology, and Witchcraft written by H.A. Kelly and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2004-01-30 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Belief in the devil and other evil spirits of the Christian tradition is a topic that has been widely discussed in recent years. Since the release of movies such as 'Rosemary's Baby' and 'The Exorcist', more people are wondering, Is Satan really dead? Is there such a phenomenon as obsession or possession? In 'The Devil, Demonology, and Witchcraft', Henry Ansgar Kelly postulates his belief that the existence of evil spirits is not probable and suggests that Christians would be better off acting on the assumption that they do not exist. To prove his claim, the author sets forth a history and analysis of the impact of demonological traditions developed within Judaism and Christianity over the centuries. He then considers the incorporation of these notions into early Christian teaching with the resulting demonological dotrines of witchcraft, possession, and temptation. Kelly's conclusion is that Satan is dead, and demonology should be eliminated from Christian dogma since, according to his thesis, these manifestations in the Bible reflect the beliefs of local cultures and not divine revelation. The present edition has been substantially revised and updated by the author to include an evaluation and critique of 'The Exorcist', wherein Kelly challenges William Peter Blatty's facts of the alleged possession in 1949 on which 'The Exorcist' is based.

Book excerpt: What beliefs are core to the Christian faith? This book is here to help you understand the reason for your hope as a Christian so that you can see it with fresh sight and invite others into the conversation. A lot of Christians take their story—the narratives that give rise to their beliefs—for granted. They pray, go to church, perhaps even read their Bible. But they might be stuck if a stranger asked them to explain what they believe and why they believe it. Author, pastor, and theologian Mike Horton unpacks the essential and basic beliefs that all Christians share in a way that is easy to understand and applicable to our lives today. And in a way that will make you excited to be a Christian! Core Christianity covers topics like: Jesus as both fully God and fully man. The doctrine of the Trinity. The goodness of God despite a broken world. The ways God speaks. The meaning of salvation. What is the Christian calling? Includes discussion questions for individual or group use. This introduction to the basic doctrines of Christianity is perfect for those who are new to the faith, as well as those who have an interest in deepening their understanding of what it means to be a follower of Jesus Christ.

Book Synopsis Angels and Demons in Art by : Rosa Giorgi
Download or read book Angels and Demons in Art written by Rosa Giorgi and published by Getty Publications. This book was released on 2005 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This sumptuously illustrated volume analyzes artists' representations of angels and demons and heaven and hell from the Judeo-Christian tradition and describes how these artistic portrayals evolved over time. As with other books in the Guide to Imagery series, the goal of this volume is to help contemporary art enthusiasts decode the symbolic meanings in the great masterworks of Western Art. The first chapter traces the development of images of the Creation and the Afterworld from descriptions of them in the Scriptures through their evolution in later literary and philosophical works. The following two chapters examine artists' depictions of the two paths that humans may take, the path of evil or the path of salvation, and the punishments or rewards found on each. A chapter on the Judgment Day and the end of the world explores portrayals of the mysterious worlds between life and death and in the afterlife. Finally, the author looks at images of angelic and demonic beings themselves and how they came to be portrayed with the physical attributes--wings, halos, horns, and cloven hooves--with which we are now so familiar. Thoroughly researched by and expert in the field of iconography, Angels and Demons in Art will delight readers with an interest in art or religious symbolism.

Download or read book Demonology written by Riley Star and published by NRB :Publishing. This book was released on 2015-02-16 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Whether you believe that demons in the service of Satan are actively plotting to subvert God's kingdom or you see such evil entities as metaphors for the struggle that is the human condition, this book will speak to you. Although cast in the language of Western Christian thought, the text looks to universal themes of good and evil and how they may be magnified or distorted in the filter of religion. The author does not, however, take issue with the fact that evil does exist in the world. Little more is needed than a visit to your favorite news site or a perusal of the front page of a newspaper to know that horrific and inexplicable things happen every day. The personification of evil in the form of a Devil and his minions evolved over time in the Jewish spiritual tradition and then in the new Christianity. Satan was once seen as a member of God's council and His ally in testing the faith of men, a role clear in the story of Job. As the perception of Satan changed however, due in large part to the story of the War in Heaven told in the Book of Revelation, the forces of evil were cast down to the earth. Here, until the Day of Judgment, they are, according to scripture, free to try to subvert man's relationship with God. This book seeks to sift popular, fictional demonology from a canonical consideration of evil. A kind of popular "man on the street" common knowledge has evolved thanks to fiction, television, and film that leave the impression of a world forever locked in a cosmic struggle. Is this accurate, or are the faithful more secure than they realize from the machinations of the devil and demons? Through an exploration of these ideas, plus accounts of famous demon possessions, the author grapples with these questions and more. An excellent introduction to demonology that acknowledges and respects the religious perspective without being religious per se, this is a fresh take on a centuries old debate. Demonology from a theological perspective, demonic possession, information on many of the demons recognized in Christianity, and much more all covered!
Book Synopsis Demons and Spirits in Biblical Theology by : John H. Walton
Download or read book Demons and Spirits in Biblical Theology written by John H. Walton and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2019-05-10 with total page 482 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Some people believe that a battle of cosmic proportions is raging as Satan and his demons seek to destroy Christians and undermine God's plans. Others believe that all talk of demons in the Bible and theology only reflects pre-modern superstitions that should be re-interpreted in philosophical and psychological terms. Despite their contrasts, both believe that the Bible directly or indirectly intends to teach readers about reality. Another path is possible. What if references to demons in the Bible are similar to references about the shape and structure of the cosmos representing the beliefs familiar to the ancient audience but used only as a framework for teaching about the plans and purposes of God? This approach is here worked out through detailed examination of hermeneutical method, the ancient Near Eastern and Greco-Roman contexts, each of the biblical terms and passages, and the essentials of biblical and systematic theology. Unlike many scholarly treatments of demons, readers will not find an assessment of the metaphysical realities. Instead they will be introduced to a hermeneutical, exegetical, and theological feast regarding what the Bible, understood in its ancient context, teaches.
