Book Synopsis Purposes of the Cross by : Dr. Apostle Emmanuel Adebiyi
Download or read book Purposes of the Cross written by Dr. Apostle Emmanuel Adebiyi and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2013-03 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the guests at the marriage feast at Canaan desired and preferred the new wine provided by Christ to the old, they were served at first, so a genuine and converted believer desires the new life above the old, having compared the easy yoke and the light burden of his Saviour in comparison to the hard yoke and grievous burden of sin, the world, and the Devil he were under in times past. The new life must never be lived out in an old fashion or mentality, perception, and practices, or else we are saved but not delivered from sin, which is more or else like we are not saved at all. I will give them a new heart, says the Lord. The new heart is for a new life .therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new (2 Cor. 5: 17).
Download or read book Cross Purposes written by Bob Welch and published by . This book was released on 2021-12 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: IN 2016, BOB WELCH--that rare combination of newspaper columnist and Christian--prayed a prayer that he believes changed his life. Over the next five years, he discovered he'd been quietly complicit in allowing the rage of far-right politics to distort the faith of evangelicals, including his own. During a 2020 sailboat trip to spread his mother's ashes, Welch commits to writing a book that he knows may rankle his fellow believers, but he can't stay silent. Amid hot-button issues such as Trump, COVID, and race, he dares to ply the shores of uncertainty in an attempt to answer a question theologian Henri Nouwen so eloquently asked: "To whom do I belong? To God or to the world?"

Book Synopsis Cross Purposes by : Magdalena Waligórska
Download or read book Cross Purposes written by Magdalena Waligórska and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2022-12-31 with total page 389 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No other symbol is as omnipresent in Poland as the cross. This multilayered and contradictory icon features prominently in public spaces and state institutions. It is anchored in the country's visual history, inspires protest culture, and dominates urban and rural landscapes. The cross recalls Poland's historic struggles for independence and anti-Communist dissent, but it also encapsulates the country's current position in Europe as a self-avowed bulwark of Christianity and a champion of conservative values. It is both a national symbol - defining the boundaries of Polishness in opposition to a changing constellation of the country's Others - and a key object of contestation in the creative arts and political culture. Despite its long history, the cross has never been systematically studied as a political symbol in its capacity to mobilize for action and solidify power structures. Cross Purposes is the first cultural history of the cross in modern Poland, deconstructing this key symbol and exploring how it has been deployed in different political battles.
Book Synopsis Cross Purposes by : Anthony Bartlett
Download or read book Cross Purposes written by Anthony Bartlett and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2018-09-20 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This seminal study of the Christian theory of the atonement examines the story of Christian violence. In Cross Purposes, Anthony Bartlett claims that the key Western doctrines of atonement have been dominated by a logic of violence and sacrifice as a means of salvation. Subsequently, the graphic suffering of the crucified in images and narrative has served to unleash a prolonged sacrificial crisis in which there is always a potential need to displace blame. These doctrines of atonement have sanctioned wide-spread violence in the name of Christ throughout history. But Bartlett argues that a minority tradition also exists. He contends that the tradition of the compassion of Christ provides the possible way out of Christian violence. Bartlett's study gives this tradition a dynamic new reading, showing how it undoes both divine and human violence and offers a powerfully transformative version of atonement for the contemporary world. Cross Purposes provides a rich historical and theological overview of the evolution of various atonement theories, using literature, art, and philosophy to provide a creative and provocative reading of Christian atonement. Anthony Bartlett is engaged in post-doctoral research and is an instructor in Religion at Syracuse University. For: Seminarians; clergy; graduate students; professors
Download or read book Why the Cross written by John Blanchard and published by . This book was released on 2010-02 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For centuries symbols have been used as a means of identification, often in an immediate, compact and powerful way. For some 2,000 years Christianity has had a symbol that is universally recognized - a simple cross. Yet the cross represents not the character, life or teaching of the founder of Christianity, but the gruesome way in which he was put to death while still in his early thirties. For millions today a cross has become little more than a charm or good luck bracelet, tattooed on their bodies or worn as jewellery. The huge gap between the original event and the current symbol therefore raises some massive questions: Why has the symbol remained so universally popular? Was there anything unique about the crucifixion of Jesus? Why was he put to death? What difference can it make to me today? Here is a booklet that answers all these questions - and many more.
Book Synopsis Talking at Cross-Purposes by : Angeliki Tzanne
Download or read book Talking at Cross-Purposes written by Angeliki Tzanne and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 2000-03-15 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Misunderstandings have been examined extensively in studies on cross-cultural (mis)communication which associate them with participants’ differing cultural backgrounds and/or linguistic knowledge. Drawing on a large corpus of misunderstandings from cross- and intra-cultural encounters, this book argues that miscommunication does not relate exclusively to participants’ background differences or similarities, but that its creation and development are tightly interwoven with the dynamic manner in which social encounters unfold. Against a backdrop of Pragmatics, Conversation Analysis and Goffman’s theory of frames and roles, the volume discusses a large number of misunderstandings and shows that they are associated with the constant identity and activity shifts as well as with the turn-by-turn construction of interpretative context in interaction. Besides students and researchers of pragmatics, conversation analysis and sociolinguistics, this book will also appeal to all those interested in the process of making, misinterpreting and clarifying meaning in social interaction.

Book excerpt: In today's theological landscape the significance of the cross has become strongly affirmed and radically questioned. This exciting volume gathers theologians and historians who have thought through these critical and constructive issues: Do traditional understandings of the cross valorize suffering or violence? Are the older soteriological models, which see redemption as a kind of ransom or debt satisfaction, fitting for the contemporary worldview? Do they produce a piety that acquiesces in needless suffering, or does the cross precisely meet the massive suffering and injustice of today's world?Following an expert introduction to the issues and options by editor Marit Trelstad, each author addresses the Christian symbol of the cross in the context of current theological, sociological, political, or environmental issues.

Book Synopsis In the Shadow of the Cross: The Deeper Meaning of Calvary by : Ray Pritchard
Download or read book In the Shadow of the Cross: The Deeper Meaning of Calvary written by Ray Pritchard and published by Primedia E-launch LLC. This book was released on with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fallen cross stands as a symbol for the spiritual condition of the church of Jesus Christ in the early days of the twenty-first century. In many places and many churches, the cross has fallen to the ground. Instead of boasting in the cross, we have neglected it, substituting in its place religious activity and therapeutic language designed to help us feel better about ourselves...And yet, when the story is truly told, it must be said that Christianity is supremely the religion of the cross. At the center of our faith a dying man hangs suspended between heaven and earth. Pastor Ray Pritchard takes a fresh look at the cross and the God-man on it and asks: who is He? why is He there? what are the words he is speaking? What did the cross mean to God? What did the cross mean to Satan? What does the cross mean to you today? Pastor Ray Pritchard asks these spiritually provocative questions in what will prove to be a spiritual tonic for your soul. Center your world around the anchor of our faith -- the cross. Discover the atonement found where grace and wrath meet. Linger at the foot of the cross.
