Book Synopsis Coming to Grips With Genesis by : Dr. Terry Mortenson
Download or read book Coming to Grips With Genesis written by Dr. Terry Mortenson and published by New Leaf Publishing Group. This book was released on 2008-10-01 with total page 489 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fourteen theological scholars address key topics related to the age of the earth, which is the crucial issue of debate in the church today regarding origins. Bringing to bear rigorous biblical, theological, and historical arguments in favor of a six-day creation, the global Flood, and a young earth, they also provide much-needed critiques of a number of contemporary old-earth interpretations of the book of Genesis. This fresh defense of the literal history of Genesis 1-11 nicely complements other studies which focus more on the scientific evidence of young-earth creationism. As such, this book can serve as a versatile supplement to other works, but is also designed to be used as a standalone text for seminary and Bible college professors and students, pastors, missionaries, and others who want in-depth apologetic resources. Coming to Grips with Genesis: Biblical Authority and the Age of the Earthincludes: Forewords by Dr. John MacArthur, President of the Master's Seminary and Senior Pastor of Grace Community Church, Sun Valley, CA; and the late Dr. Henry Morris, Founder and President Emeritus, Institute for Creation Research Detailed analysis of the verbs of Genesis 1 A defense of the Genesis 5 & 11 genealogies as strict chronologies Reasons for rejecting millions of years of death and natural evil before Adam's sin Careful reflection on Jesus' teachings regarding a young earth

Book Synopsis Grip of Heaven by : H. Bruce Boulton
Download or read book Grip of Heaven written by H. Bruce Boulton and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2020-03-13 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The title Grip of Heaven came from a vision the Lord gave me following my precious Annie's homegoing in November 2016. She exhibited a real peace of mind in the few weeks prior to her passing that gave no evidence of her physical condition or circumstances. I discovered the source of that peace in the months following as I searched her personal belongings. I found a scribbled note on her coupon envelope in her pocketbook that read, "Stop holding on and be held by Jesus." Later I read in her journal, "I saw a roadside sign that said, 'Stop holding on and be held by the loving arms of Jesus.' So much of this applies to me." I observed her inner peace during her last days and especially during her nine-day stay in the hospital. My vision of the pierced hand of Jesus gripping Ann's hand came soon after this discovery. With it came encouragement to write this book and tell others of the walk she and I had walked over the last forty-five years following our Lord's leading in all aspects of our lives together.
Download or read book Heaven written by Paula Gooder and published by SPCK. This book was released on 2011-08-18 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For all who are curious about the dwelling place of God and the angels, this book explores the Bible's teaching on heaven and explains how it is nearer to earth than you might think. Paula Gooder considers the ways in which the Bible sees heaven and earth connecting, and explores all the major strands of belief about life after death, including the role of paradise, and what happens between death and resurrection. She shows how the biblical writers see heaven and earth as closely connected, so that what happens in heaven affects events on earth and vice versa.

Book Synopsis The Kingdom of Heaven by : W. M. Seckinger
Download or read book The Kingdom of Heaven written by W. M. Seckinger and published by Covenant Books, Inc.. This book was released on 2023-03-20 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The kingdom of heaven--what is it exactly? Only one book in the Bible uses this terminology: the gospel of Matthew, and it presents it thirty-three times in just twenty-eight chapters. Though the kingdom of God appears as well in the work, it appears separate from the kingdom of heaven, and in full alignment with the seven kingdom types of Scripture. In substance, this kingdom relates to the literal reign of Christ on earth. But Matthew uses it more to refer to the time just before it is set up on earth. He uses it more to speak of conditions that are to exist at the end of the tribulation prior to the kingdom age. This makes his presentation unique and unlike any other. In its prime position, which is first and foremost in the order of the gospels and first and foremost in the order of the New Testament, this gospel lays the groundwork for all that comes after it and is said by others. Written from a disciple's perspective, it reveals the inner workings of Jesus's ministry on earth, going beyond the teachings and miracles to give the purpose behind these things and explain what was going on behind the scenes, showing that, more than Christ, Jesus was the Savior of the world and a "King." The title "King of kings and Lord of lords," from the last book of the Bible, resonates with the account. The gospel follows a theme from beginning to end. Every part contributes to the whole. The textual arrangement of prophetic precision brings everything together. And though written to Jews of the first century, shortly after the time of Jesus's ascension, grasped today, these timeless truths compel one to live the Christian life on a higher plane.
Book Synopsis I Wonder: Mind-Freeing Encounters With God by : Nathan Aaseng
Download or read book I Wonder: Mind-Freeing Encounters With God written by Nathan Aaseng and published by John Hunt Publishing. This book was released on 2021-11-26 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many Christian leaders today promote rigid doctrine that says, “Never doubt. Never question.” This insistence has been demonstrably disastrous for the church because the first step in any faith formation is to wonder. Nathan Aaseng revives the gift of wonder in seeking a fuller, more awesome experience of God. It welcomes unsettling questions, that are too often dismissed with pat answers.
Book Synopsis Heaven Is Beautiful by : Peter Baldwin Panagore
Download or read book Heaven Is Beautiful written by Peter Baldwin Panagore and published by Hampton Roads Publishing. This book was released on 2015-10-01 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on the author’s real-life story of dying on a mountain, this enthralling book combines the thrills of a wilderness adventures with the awe inspiring elements of a paranormal novel. In March of 1980, college senior Peter Panagore went ice climbing on the world-famous Lower Weeping Wall, along the Ice Fields Parkway in Alberta, Canada. His climbing partner was an experienced ice climber, but Panagore was a novice. On their descent, they became trapped on the side of the mountain. As the sun set, he was overcome by exhaustion and hypothermia. He died on the side of that mountain in 1980. In his minutes on the other side, he experienced hell, forgiveness, and unconditional love. Heaven was beautiful. Panagore’s near death experience (NDE) changed his life and resulted in an intense spiritual journey that has continued for decades. It impelled him to pursue a master’s degree at Yale Divinity School focusing on systematic theology and Christian mysticism. His educational background coupled with 30 years of yogic and meditative practice and 20 years of professional work with the dying and grieving has given him unique insight, language, and perspective on heaven, God, death, life, love, beauty, and hope. “I have told my story to audiences large and small for a decade now. . . . My story touches people’s hearts; every time I tell it the audience is gripped and silent. . . . This book is about hope. It is meant to give real hope to the dying, hope to the fearful, hope to the hopeless, hope to the grieving.”
Download or read book Grip of Heaven written by H Bruce Boulton and published by . This book was released on 2022-03-24 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I also want to emphasize the need for Christians to be baptized in the Holy Spirit. Satan has blinded most Christians with the understanding that being saved and born again are the same experience and they are not. They are saved and are going to Heaven when they die and nothing can change that fact. But they have no Spiritual power to defeat self-sin-and Satan in their lives. Chapter 1 in my book "My Great Awakening" details my testimony and is the primary truth that I want to be told to all Christians so that we can be ready for His second coming to a Church without spot or wrinkle. I'm 85 years old living in OR with my son and his wife after my precious wife Ann went Home to be with the Lord. We enjoyed 58 years of marriage and I miss her very much. I was born in upstate NY and lived there most of my early years. Graduated from Scotia HS in 1954 and then on to Alfred University where I graduated and also married Ann in 1958. Then on to the business world where I worked with JC Penney, Schenectady Trust Co., General Electric, Magnavox, and the US Army as an Officer. Then in 1970, I moved back to my home state to work in my father's Real Estate Office. That's when I was baptized in the Holy Spirit and all things unfolded as I have written in my book "Grip of Heaven". My faith walk began at an early age when I was saved in the local Methodist Church. I've always lived in a Christian family. My grandfather, on my father's side, came to this Country in 1915 with my father, one brother, and 3 sisters. My grandfather taught Greek in Oswald Chambers Bible School in England before coming to the USA as a Methodist Pastor. I've always been a member of some church where I was located. Since my born again gift in 1972, I've experienced Spiritual guidance thru visions, dreams, and His voice that are detailed in my book. One of the early pronouncements from the Holy Spirit occurred while a student and staff at Pinecrest Bible Training Center in the 1990s. by a visiting Pastor. He was gifted with the interpretations of Similitudes appearing over individuals. He saw a blasting cap above me and asked if knew what that was. I said it was the start of a great explosion and he said "that's right and that I was going to cause an explosion in the Church and good things would unfold." I see that the book He wrote, using me as His instrument, is what He was telling me about. The result would be the empowerment of Christians to come out of their inability to defeat Satan in their lives.
Book Synopsis Inching Toward Heaven's Door by : John F. Sieckhaus
Download or read book Inching Toward Heaven's Door written by John F. Sieckhaus and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2001-11-02 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are few clues as to why a person responds to the vicissitudes of life in a given way. As John Sieckhaus states in this memoir of his own spiritual journey "some have the courage to choose life from their earliest moments of sober reflection while others opt to soothe their pain with addictions of the mind and body, some choose an early final exit and still others stay the healing course trusting that there is purpose to their lives, meaning in their suffering, and healing as the intended outcome of some higher power." The tragic slaying of his parents propels the author as sixteen year old onto a life course dictated initially by his own errant choices and the acculturations of family, tribe and society. His decision to pursue a Ph.D. in chemistry is consistent with his search for life's magic formula, the alchemist's quest for the philosopher's stone, but the first fruits of this venture are depression and a horrific encounter with his "family demons". Resort to psychotherapy and chemical dis-ease management, a therapeutic model "characterized by a patient's need to trust in the alchemical wisdom of his or her therapist," proves to be a mere palliative in a desperate striving to arrest the pain, and it is only through an encounter with the living God amidst a small band of refugees from mainline Christian churches that his journey of faith, remembrance and healing begins. John Sieckhaus tells this story with conviction and a deep sense of gratitude for God's provision of trustworthy guides and fellow travelers on the way. It was from James and Mary Baird, a couple whose decision to stand against the racial prejudices inherent in their small town culture in Baird Mississippi in the 1950s forced them to leave family, clan and culture to reach out to the hurting and the needy in southeast Asia that he learned to heed God's call in his life and to pursue his vocation with a new sense of adventure and purpose. In so doing he had to come to grips with his work as a scientist engaged in the development of weapon systems and was eventually led to challenge his company's involvement with nerve gas research and resign his position. With each step in his vocational journey the healing went deeper and finally, after staying the course for more than twenty years, the author was gifted with a revelation of his family pathology which provided the clues concerning his own responses to life. This is a story that the author was compelled to tell because the telling was an integral part of his healing journey and because, as he states in the introduction "I believe that what I have experienced and learned is not just for my own healing and spiritual growth, that perhaps it may help others walk their own path to wholeness. If this should prove to be the case for only one other person it (the telling) will have been worth the effort."
