Download or read book Liberated written by Hugh Barber and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2014-09-19 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In [this] freedom Christ has made us free [and completely liberated us]; stand fast then, and do not be hampered and held ensnared and submit again to a yoke of slavery [which you have once put off]. Is who you are today based on what you do, or is it defined by who you are? A distorted identity and life of bondage are not a coincidence. A poor understanding of our identity is the primary cause of bondage amongst Christians today. For your identity directly determines your every decision and how you choose to live your life. A person who is liberated has the right or power to do as one pleases, or freedom without restraint or bondage. Galatians 5:1 declares this reality It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. However, too many sincere believers today are living in some type of bondage when they already have the power to be set free. Therefore understanding who we are and unlocking the power within us as children of God is the key to liberated life. A desire to be all that God created us to be should be our highest pursuit in life. When we understand who we are and our purpose in Christ, we will be able to take hold of all the amazing plans He has in store for us. In this book you will understand the reality of your true identity as a Christian, the purpose of being broken and restored, as well as the importance our thoughts captive. You will discover practical steps to walking in freedom and the significance of becoming all you were created to be. Founded in biblical principles and inspiring stories, this book will help you realize your true identity that can empower you to having long lasting freedom in every area of your life. What other people daily struggle with does not have to be your story too. That there is absolutely nothing which is too powerful or difficult for God to set you free today. No matter your past mistakes or current circumstances, join me as we realize the divine freedom that is ours in Christ.
Book Synopsis Divine Freedom and Revelation in Christ by : Alexander Garton-Eisenacher
Download or read book Divine Freedom and Revelation in Christ written by Alexander Garton-Eisenacher and published by Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht. This book was released on 2022-12-12 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Christianity claims that the incarnation provides reliable knowledge about God but also that the incarnation was undertaken freely and thus need not have happened. Alexander Garton-Eisenacher resolves this tension between epistemological reliability and divine freedom, building particularly from the work of Karl Barth. Garton-Eisenacher offers a fresh reading of the Church Dogmatics that demonstrates how Barth's theology provides a promising starting point but notes that his argument is ultimately undermined by the doctrine of eternity within which it is framed. The author overcomes this issue by showing how the promising motifs employed by Barth can be authentically derived from the classical doctrine of eternity instead. In so doing, this work shows that reading classical eternity against a Barthian background also serves to draw out a more temporal interpretation of the doctrine than its contemporary characterization, reclaiming it as a viable Christian understanding of God's relationship to time.

Download or read book The Exchanged Life written by Rhonda Mead and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2018-09-10 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is more to your Christian walk than you are experiencing! Many writings of the past speak of entering God's rest, the deeper walk, the life hid with Christ in God, or the victorious Christian life. Nonetheless, many, after studying the truths of The Exchanged Life, never experience it. Others have earnestly rededicated their lives to Christ numerous times, completely surrendered at every alter call, worked in ministry until they were totally disenchanted and pressed in until they were wore out, yet found the peace and joy the Bible speaks so freely of, an elusive dream. If self-effort, zeal, or diligence were the key, many would be experiencing abundant life, but they are not! God has a reality for you""on this earth""that few will ever taste. The Kingdom of God is at hand and is available for you to walk in now, in preparation for eternity. If you are drawn to the teachings of the patriarchs of the church age... Watchman Nee Jessie Penn-Lewis Andrew Murray Oswald Chambers Thomas a'Kempis Madame Guyon Major Ian Thomas T. Austin-Sparks ...then you will appreciate the depth of the mystery of the Gospel presented inside this volume. It is presented in a way all may understand and enter in. Our prayer for you is that Jesus Christ may be revealed in you, that this world may see Him, and that you may walk in the true freedom found only through His life, exchanged for yours.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle.

It touches upon questions about Scripture, tradition, and the teaching authority of the Church. The major concern of the document is to proclaim a Catholic understanding of the Bible as the "word of God." Key elements include: Trinitarian structure, roles of apostles and bishops, and biblical reading in a historical context.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this important study Hays argues against the mainstream that any attempt to account for the nature and method of Paul's theological language must first reckon with the centrality of narrative elements in his thought. Through an in-depth investigation of Galatians 3:1-4:11, Hays shows that the framework of Paul's thought is neither a system of doctrines nor his personal religious experience but the "sacred story" of Jesus Christ.
Book Synopsis The Problem of God, Yesterday and Today by : John Courtney Murray
Download or read book The Problem of God, Yesterday and Today written by John Courtney Murray and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 1964-01-01 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In an urbane and persuasive tract for our time, the distinguished Catholic theologian combines a comprehensive metaphysics with a sensitivity to contemporary existentialist thought. Father Murray traces the “problem of God” from its origins in the Old Testament, through its development in the Christian Fathers and the definitive statement by Aquinas, to its denial by modern materialism. Students and nonspecialist intellectuals may both benefit by the book, which illuminates the problem of development of doctrine that is now, even more than in the days of Newman, a fundamental issue between Roman Catholic and Protestant, theologians and nonspecialst intellectuals alike will find the subject of vital interest. As a challenge to the ecumenical dialogue, the question is raised whether, in the course of its development through different phases, the problem of God has come back to its original position. Father Murray is Ordinary professor of theology at Woodstock College, Woodstock, Maryland. St. Thomas More Lectures, 1. "A gem of a book—lucid, illuminating, brilliantly written. A fine contribution to the current Catholic theological renaissance."—Paul Weiss.
Book Synopsis The Freedom of God for Us by : Brian D. Asbill
Download or read book The Freedom of God for Us written by Brian D. Asbill and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2014-12-18 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume provides an analysis of divine aseity in Karl Barth's thought and appreciates the vital role that this doctrine can play in contemporary theology. Brian D. Asbill begins by setting the general theological context, first through a broad sketch of the development of Barth's understanding of the relationship between the life of God pro nobis (pronobeity) and a se (aseity), and secondly through the examination of the basic theological convictions that guide his approach to the divine being in Church Dogmatics II/1. The second section, 'The Love and Freedom of God', turns to the dialectical pairings which guide Barth's accounts of the divine reality in his earliest dogmatic cycle (The Göttingen Dogmatics §§16-7) as well as in his most mature treatment (Church Dogmatics §§28-31). Particular attention is given to how these themes arise from revelation and relate to one another. In the final section, 'The Aseity of God', Asbill identifies this doctrine's basic features and primary functions. Divine aseity is characterized as the self-demonstration and self-movement of God's life, a trinitarian and entirely unique reality, a primarily positive and dynamic concept, and the manner and readiness of God's love for creatures. Divine aseity is said to indicate God's lordship in the act of self-binding, God's uniqueness in the act of self-revelation, and God's sufficiency in the act of self-giving.
Book Synopsis How to Read the Bible and Still Be a Christian by : John Dominic Crossan
Download or read book How to Read the Bible and Still Be a Christian written by John Dominic Crossan and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2015-03-03 with total page 151 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The acclaimed Bible scholar and author of The Historical Jesus and God & Empire—“the greatest New Testament scholar of our generation” (John Shelby Spong) —grapples with Scripture’s two conflicting visions of Jesus and God, one of a loving God, and one of a vengeful God, and explains how Christians can better understand these passages in a way that enriches their faith. Many portions of the New Testament, introduce a compassionate Jesus who turns the other cheek, loves his enemies, and shows grace to all. But the Jesus we find in Revelation and some portions of the Gospels leads an army of angels bent on earthly destruction. Which is the true revelation of the Messiah—and how can both be in the same Bible? How to Read the Bible and Still be a Christian explores this question and offers guidance for the faithful conflicted over which version of the Lord to worship. John Dominic Crossan reconciles these contrasting views, revealing how different writers of the books of the Bible not only possessed different visions of God but also different purposes for writing. Often these books are explicitly competing against another, opposing vision of God from the Bible itself. Crossan explains how to navigate this debate and offers what he believes is the best central thread to what the Bible is all about. He challenges Christians to fully participate in this dialogue, thereby shaping their faith by reading deeply, reflectively, and in community with others who share their uncertainty. Only then, he advises, will Christians be able to read and understand the Bible without losing their faith.
Book Synopsis Theology of Revelation by : Gabriel Moran
Download or read book Theology of Revelation written by Gabriel Moran and published by . This book was released on 1966 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Just as the Church's teaching on papal infallibility was balanced by the doctrine of episcopal collegiality, so too the past overemphasis of theologians on the unquestioned objectivity and immutability of the deposit of faith has had to be balanced by an understanding of revelation as the ongoing communication of God to man. Revelation is not some kind of static thing, or a mere object; it is rather what occurs in an encounter between persons, and it therefore exists only as a personal reality. Such is the thesis of this biblically rich and theologically penetrating study by the brilliant young theologian, Gabriel Moran. Influenced by modern personalist philosophies, and sanctioned by the decree, De Revelatione, of the Second Vatican Council, this book provides a welcome corrective to the onesided exaggerations of traditional manuals in which revelation was often seen as imply a compendium of truths. It is his biblical perspective which allows the author to envision revelation as a personal, communal, and historical reality. God reveals himself in the history of the Jewish people, and finally in Christ who, as the union of God and man, is both God bestowing and man receiving revelation; and because the risen Christ remains among his people, revelation still continues. Such a conception of revelation lets the Christian integrate the bible, the liturgy, and dogmatic formulations into a present and personal communication between God and man. Moreover, because of its emphasis on this communication as a continuing activity in the Church, this conception of revelation gives new meaning and new direction to the work of the Church in the contemporary world. Although Gabriel Moran's study is primarily a theological synthesis, it is obvious that with such a scope and framework, this is a book not only for theologians, but for all those who must realize for themselves and explain to others the meaning of God's communion with man. It is a book with profound doctrinal and pastoral implications. -Publisher
