Book Synopsis Christianity: Endangered or Extinct by : Rodger L. Cragun
Download or read book Christianity: Endangered or Extinct written by Rodger L. Cragun and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2018-12-07 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written by two respectable religious scholars, this groundbreaking new book challenges some of our long-held beliefs about Christianity as we know it, detailing the origins of a great divide between Jesus of Nazareth’s teachings and Christianity during its formative stages. With comprehensive historical research, authors Cragun and Kessler use the analysis of power and class struggle to reexamine church history and the teachings of the theologians. They outline how the so-called “Fathers of the Church” took over the community of Jesus, destroyed its foundations, and built their own church edifice, which they then passed down to us. Though much of modern scholarship blames Constantine for the corruption of the church. Christianity: Endangered or Extinct? shows how the corruption was a gradual process in which Platonic philosophy, power, and prestige gradually entombed the message Jesus actually gave us. This religion was carefully honed to be acceptable to emperors, rulers, and the elite, replacing Christ’s original message of love, egalitarianism, communalism, pacifism, and servant leadership—concepts that are essential for the survival of humanity in the twenty-first century. This is a true People’s History of Christianity in the tradition of Howard Zinn’s People’s History of the United States and one that will have you seeing Christianity in a brand-new light.

Book Synopsis Endangered Gospel by : John C. Nugent
Download or read book Endangered Gospel written by John C. Nugent and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2016-06-16 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For centuries, Christians sought to rescue people from this world. Today, we're trying to fix it. While this shift is helpful in some ways, in other ways it can be quite dangerous. Endangered Gospel flips the script on this conversation by stressing the core gospel truth that rather than ushering in a new world through social activism, God's people already are the new world in Christ. It's not our job to make this world a better place, but to be the better place God has already made in this world. That's good news! If we let go of this truth, we become servants of the world and not God. We also lose the great joy and abundant life that God intended us to have in community. Jesus himself said that the world will know we are Christians by our love for one another--not the fervor of our activism. Social action makes us feel relevant and alive, but it can't be the center of our new life in Christ. Endangered Gospel explores how we might enthusiastically embrace the social dimensions of the gospel without divorcing them from the church or forcing them on the world. Read this book, hear the gospel story afresh, and embrace the good news of God's kingdom!
Book Synopsis The Origin of Man by : Edward a Croteau
Download or read book The Origin of Man written by Edward a Croteau and published by . This book was released on 2018-09-07 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Regardless of what you may have heard, Christianity is the fastest growing religion in the world today. Islam is the second. While Europe replaced it's Christian heritage with secular humanism, Christianity is spreading around the globe - in Africa, Asia and Central and South America. Christianity is now a universal worldview. In America, it's once Christian culture is being eroded from within, by an intentional promotion of secular humanism and a rejection of the gospel in most of our universities, media and entertainment institutions. Living out the Christian life in an increasingly secularized American culture has two imperatives: 1) understanding the arguments in American culture for why Christianity is no longer relevant (and how to easily defeat them), and 2) examining your personal relationship with Jesus Christ, to grow in the knowledge of His working in you. This book is Volume 2 of a 4-volume study series designed to be used in conjunction with a classroom workbook, or on line with the individual classroom videos, for the purpose of helping you grow in the relevance of Jesus Christ in all areas of your life. Volume 2 examines the second of life's four questions that everyone wrestles with: Where did I come from? (origins), weighing the message of Jesus Christ against secular humanism. Where you align yourself has eternal consequences.
