Book Synopsis Jesus on Death Row by : Prof. Mark Osler
Download or read book Jesus on Death Row written by Prof. Mark Osler and published by Abingdon Press. This book was released on 2010-09-01 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What does the most infamous criminal proceeding in history--the trial of Jesus of Nazareth--have to tell us about capital punishment in the United States? Jesus Christ was a prisoner on death row. If that statement surprises you, consider this fact: of all the roles that Jesus played--preacher, teacher, healer, mentor, friend--none features as prominently in the gospels as this one, a criminal indicted and convicted of a capital offense. Now consider another fact: the arrest, trial, and execution of Jesus bear remarkable similarities to the American criminal justice system, especially in capital cases. From the use of paid informants to the conflicting testimony of witnesses to the denial of clemency, the elements in the story of Jesus' trial mirror the most common components in capital cases today. Finally, consider a question: How might we see capital punishment in this country differently if we realized that the system used to condemn the Son of God to death so closely resembles the system we use in capital cases today? Should the experience of Jesus' trial, conviction, and execution give us pause as we take similar steps to place individuals on death row today? These are the questions posed by this surprising, challenging, and enlightening book

Book Synopsis Jesus, Who HE is Unbelievably Amazing by : Judith Ann Smith
Download or read book Jesus, Who HE is Unbelievably Amazing written by Judith Ann Smith and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2021-09-14 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ruling emotion of an addict is hopelessness. I want people to know that there is always hope in Christ, not emotions but facts and faith. The new life God has given to me is being offered to you too. He is waiting for you. He is waiting for you to reach out admitting you need HIS help. An encounter with Christ changed everything and one good thing after another has begun to happen. I dedicated my life to God, and I truly turned it over. Judy and I started fresh but I had a lot of damage to repair. After all, I did clear out our home twice before going to Teen Challenge. I can honestly say amid everything I had gone through with prison and drugs the first few months of Teen Challenge was a dark and trying time. I was clean, but for the first time, I had to truly look in the mirror at myself and find my way through faith to someone I'd never been. I didn't even want to talk to Judy at all and I'm sure the feeling was mutual. This was my time alone with God, it was a time to give up trying to fix me. Focusing on GODs word, He created a new me, with a brand-new identity, literally a new creation. HIS story of my life is truly Unbelievably amazing. II Corinthians 5:17 Therefore, if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.

Book Synopsis The Innocence of Pontius Pilate by : David Lloyd Dusenbury
Download or read book The Innocence of Pontius Pilate written by David Lloyd Dusenbury and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2021-12-01 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The gospels and ancient historians agree: Jesus was sentenced to death by Pontius Pilate, the Roman imperial prefect in Jerusalem. To this day, Christians of all churches confess that Jesus died 'under Pontius Pilate'. But what exactly does that mean? Within decades of Jesus' death, Christians began suggesting that it was the Judaean authorities who had crucified Jesus--a notion later echoed in the Qur'an. In the third century, one philosopher raised the notion that, although Pilate had condemned Jesus, he'd done so justly; this idea survives in one of the main strands of modern New Testament criticism. So what is the truth of the matter? And what is the history of that truth? David Lloyd Dusenbury reveals Pilate's 'innocence' as not only a neglected theological question, but a recurring theme in the history of European political thought. He argues that Jesus' interrogation by Pilate, and Augustine of Hippo's North African sermon on that trial, led to the concept of secularity and the logic of tolerance emerging in early modern Europe. Without the Roman trial of Jesus, and the arguments over Pilate's innocence, the history of empire--from the first century to the twenty-first--would have been radically different.

Book Synopsis Confessions and Testimony of a Christian Prisoner by : Ray Amato
Download or read book Confessions and Testimony of a Christian Prisoner written by Ray Amato and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2021-04-19 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unknowingly to me, the writing of this book commenced decades ago while traveling my thirty-five state territories as a tractor trailer driver. Listening to volumes of the Bible on cassette tapes, I often felt compelled to pull over and write on various issues as they occurred to me. Across the years, I improved, but not until I became a serious reader did I develop my present style through the influence of various prolific authors: GK Chesterton, C. S. Lewis, John MacArthur, and others. This book is a collection of theological essays, poetry, and short stories, some of which are true stories of my road trips and life experiences. In a backsliding state, however, some old bad habits revisited, landing me in prison. As I entered my first jail cell, it was vacant except for a beautiful leather-bound NKJ version of the Bible and a copy of a Strong's Concise Concordance of the Bible still sealed in cellophane wrap. That, my friends, I needn't say but I will anyway is an unheard of incident in 10 million vacant jail cells. So now I had just what I would need to polish my previous work, the time, pardon the pun, and the equipment. For my familiarity with the Bible was exhaustive, but only on tape so the concordance was what I would need to find my way around. This was to me a sign from God clearer than words. In addition to reading and writing, I lead Bible study in county jail, and eventually in state prison I shared my work from the pulpit at our chapel. It was then that I felt lead to compose this book; however, it was the Holy Spirit's help and energy who made it happen. I pray that it produces the ends to which it is sent multiplying the faithful among men in Christ Jesus. Remember to pray for the men and women who have lost their way.
Book Synopsis Chained in Christ by : Craig S. Wansink
Download or read book Chained in Christ written by Craig S. Wansink and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 1996-01-01 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For Paul, who imprisoned Christians, his own incarceration ironically became a way in which he understood his mission. Paul's convictions and his rhetoric were often shaped during those times when chains constrained him from travelling. By examining a wide variety of sources-such as ancient novels, dream interpretations and moral tractates-Wansink first describes prison conditions and the daily life of prisoners, in the Graeco-Roman world. Subsequent exegetical chapters focus on two epistles Paul wrote from prison: Philippians and Philemon. This book replaces a 'docetic' view of Paul's incarceration with an original insight into how prison would have shaped his interaction with the Philippians and Philemon.
