Book Synopsis American Messiahs: False Prophets of a Damned Nation by : Adam Morris
Download or read book American Messiahs: False Prophets of a Damned Nation written by Adam Morris and published by Liveright Publishing. This book was released on 2019-03-26 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A history with sweeping implications, American Messiahs challenges our previous misconceptions about “cult” leaders and their messianic power. Mania surrounding messianic prophets has defined the national consciousness since the American Revolution. From Civil War veteran and virulent anticapitalist Cyrus Teed, to the dapper and overlooked civil rights pioneer Father Divine, to even the megalomaniacal Jim Jones, these figures have routinely been dismissed as dangerous and hysterical outliers. After years of studying these emblematic figures, Adam Morris demonstrates that messiahs are not just a classic trope of our national culture; their visions are essential for understanding American history. As Morris demonstrates, these charismatic, if flawed, would-be prophets sought to expose and ameliorate deep social ills—such as income inequality, gender conformity, and racial injustice. Provocative and long overdue, this is the story of those who tried to point the way toward an impossible “American Dream”: men and women who momentarily captured the imagination of a nation always searching for salvation.

Book Synopsis Messiah and Exaltation by : Andrew Chester
Download or read book Messiah and Exaltation written by Andrew Chester and published by Mohr Siebeck. This book was released on 2007 with total page 756 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Andrew Chester focuses on Jewish messianic hope, intermediary figures, and visionary traditions of human transformation, particularly in the Second Temple period, and analyzes their significance for the origin and development of New Testament Christology. He brings together five previously published essays on these themes: these include two long chapters, one on Jewish messianic and mediatorial traditions in relation to Pauline Christology, the other on messianism and eschatology in early Judaism and Christianity, plus one on messiah and Temple in Sibylline Oracles 3-5. Two further essays, on the significance of Torah in the messianic age, and on resurrection, transformation and early Christology, have been extensively revised. There are also three substantial new chapters, all of which engage closely with recent scholarly debate. The first, on the origin of Christology, argues for the significance of Jewish visionary traditions of human transformation for understanding how 'high' Christology came about at such an early stage within the New Testament. The second discusses the complex questions of the definition, scope and nature of Jewish messianism, especially in relation to the Hebrew Bible and the more-recently available Qumran evidence, and their significance for the New Testament. The third is concerned with what Paul means by the 'law of Christ', and the wider issues raised by this.

Book Synopsis The Messiah Complex by : Randall Scott Johns
Download or read book The Messiah Complex written by Randall Scott Johns and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2021-04-14 with total page 45 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Author and attorney Randall Scott Johns argued in the US District Court for the Virgin Islands that the broadcast media should be permitted into the federal judiciary to expose the intellectual dishonesty of the judicial system. The brotherhood of lawyers and federal judges pushed back against him, finding him in contempt of court and revoking his license to practice law in the USVI. He appealed the ruling of contempt up to the US Supreme Court. About the same time, Johns fell in love with a native Virgin Islander and was required to get consent from the bishop of Saint Thomas to receive Holy Communion during their wedding. Johns was baptized a Christian in the Evangelical United Brethren Church, and his wife-to-be was baptized a Christian in the Roman Catholic Church. The bishop granted consent, and Johns continued to receive communion. Then he had a falling out with the new bishop of Saint Thomas who publicly announced non-Roman Catholics were not welcome to receive Holy Communion. After communicating with the Vatican, Johns traveled to Rome and requested an audience with the pope. In The Messiah Complex, Johns tells his story and how he unraveled the life lessons. He offers insight on how society can bridge the gap between the linear thinking of this world with the abstract thinking of religion and natural law.

Download or read book The Messiah Complex written by Simon Lawder and published by . This book was released on 2019-09 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The idea for The Messiah Complex emerged from a serious look at faith-based terrorism, which we in the West tend to associate uniquely with Islamists.

Book Synopsis Caesar's messiah : the Roman conspiracy to invent Jesus by : Joseph Atwill
Download or read book Caesar's messiah : the Roman conspiracy to invent Jesus written by Joseph Atwill and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Caesar's Messiah," a real life "Da Vinci Code," presents the dramatic and controversial discovery that the conventional views of Christian origins may be wrong. Author Joseph Atwill makes the case that the Christian Gospels were actually written under the direction of first-century Roman emperors. The purpose of these texts was to establish a peaceful Jewish sect to counterbalance the militaristic Jewish forces that had just been defeated by the Roman Emperor Titus in 70 A.D. Atwill uncovered the secret key to this story in the writings of Josephus, the famed first-century Roman historian. Reading Josephus's chronicle, "The War of the Jews," the author found detail after detail that closely paralleled events recounted in the Gospels. Atwill skillfully demonstrates that the emperors used the Gospels to spark a new religious movement that would aid them in maintaining power and order. What's more, by including hidden literary clues, they took the story of the Emperor Titus's glorious military victory, as recounted by Josephus, and embedded that story in the Gospels - a sly and satirical way of glorifying the emperors through the ages.
