Download or read book A Glimpse of the New Genesis written by Richard J. "Dick" Hill and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2023-04-06 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most people approach the study of prophecy from the aspect of “when.” But what needs to guide our study is what Jesus had to say about His Second Coming. He gave two signs of His return—“the abomination of desolation spoken of by the prophet Daniel” and “as the days of Noah were so shall the coming of the Son of Man be.” In this book Richard J. “Dick” Hill, who has spent a lifetime in Christian ministry, explores how regeneration allows someone to be born into God’s kingdom. He observes that the seed of the gospel is absolutely necessary for new life (new genesis). The author notes that not only are we born into the kingdom, but we are baptized into the King by the Holy Spirit at the same moment. The church is within the kingdom of God, but the church is not the kingdom of God. God has brought Jew and Gentile together into one new man, the church. This mystery that was revealed by the apostle Paul was never mentioned in the Old Testament. God’s church will be snatched away in the fullness of time, and the dispensation of God’s grace for the Gentiles will be complete.
Download or read book A New Glimpse of Day One written by Samuel D. Giere and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2009 with total page 379 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With Day One, Genesis 1.1-5, as a focus and informed by the understanding that all texts are intertexts, S.D. Giere shapes and employs a method that harnesses the idea of intertextuality for the purpose of exploring the history of interpretation of a biblical text. With a unique compilation of intertexts of Gen 1.1-5, the work explores the intertexual reach of Day One in Hebrew and Greek texts up to c. 200 CE. What emerges is a glimpse of the intertextuality of Day One that provides insight into the complexity of the intertextuality of a biblical text and the relationship of intertextuality and interpretation.
Download or read book A Glimpse of the Chosen written by Richard J. “Dick” Hill and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2016-11-18 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Glimpse of the Chosen challenges readers to ponder the Bibles teaching of the doctrine of election. The writer begins by giving a small glimpse into the domain of the absolute holiness of God, his amazing power, his righteousness, and his love. God, who is the ultimate genius, has a divine purpose for everything that occurs in time and space, both good and evil, in order to ultimately reveal the amazing riches of his glory. A Glimpse of the Chosen unfolds a glimpse of Gods work in calling people to him, beginning in the Garden of Eden, continuing throughout history, and ending with the kingdom of Jesus Christ. The writer demonstrates that we are fallen creatures with a distorted knowledge of life. We can take comfort in the fact that no matter how things appear, God is in control and has a purpose for every human being, both saved and lost, that he creates.
Download or read book The Gospel in the Pentateuch written by Herbert Lockyer and published by Whitaker House. This book was released on 2017-05-02 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Old Testament is not light summer reading. Some chapters seem downright boring, such as the genealogies, the census listings, and the laws, and others gruesome and wrong, such as the graphic descriptions of sacrifices or killing the enemy. Why would God want us to read all that? Scholar Dr. Herbert Lockyer calls the Bible "the masterpiece of the divine Mind" because despite its sixty-six books, it is woven throughout with the same truth: the gospel. In this study of the Pentateuch, Lockyer provides a birds-eye view of the first five books of the Bible, systematically explaining how each of the first five books fit inside God's greater plan. His detailed, practical, gospel-infused survey provides ample reason for why the Old Testament is still relevant to today's believer. Includes charts, questions for review at the end of each chapter, and outlines of each of the five books.
Download or read book The Genesis Machine written by Amy Webb and published by Public Affairs. This book was released on 2023-10-10 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A breakthrough investigation of synthetic biology: the promising and controversial technology platform that combines biology and artificial intelligence and has the potential to program biological systems like we program computers. Synthetic biology is the technique that enables us not just to read and edit but also write DNA to program living biological structures as though they were tiny computers. Unlike cloning Dolly the sheep-which cut and copied existing genetic material-the future of synthetic biology might be something like an app store, where you could download and add new capabilities into any cell, microbe, plant, or animal. This breakthrough science has the potential to mitigate, perhaps solve, humanity's immediate and longer-term existential challenges: climate change; the feeding, clothing, housing, and caring for billions of humans; fighting the next viral outbreak before it becomes a global pandemic; old age as a treatable pathology; bringing back extinct animals. It could also be anarchic and socially destructive. With our governing structures created in an era before startling advances in technology, we are not prepared for a future in which life could be manipulated or programmed. As futurist Amy Webb and synthetic biologist Andrew Hessel show in this book, within the next decade, we will need to make important decisions: whether to program novel viruses to fight diseases, what genetic privacy will look like, who will "own" living organisms, how companies should earn revenue from engineered cells, and how to contain a synthetic organism in a lab. The Genesis Machine provides the background for us to understand and grapple with these issues, and think through the religious, philosophical, and ethical implications for the future.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Glimpse of the Christian seeks to clarify the true identity and nature of Christians to a world that has become hazy on this subject. In this study, author Richard J. Dick Hill crafts a clear, simple, and easy-to-understand guide to life and ministries of Christians in todays world. Christians are spiritual people connected to Jesus by the supernatural ministry of Gods Spirit. Eleven chapters offer varied glimpses into elements of the Christians life, including possessions, giftedness, security, works, education, and accountability. Each chapter draws upon wisdom from the Scriptures, illustrations from daily life, and insights from Hills own experiences to explain the chapters topic and to provide a fresh perspective from which you may catch a clear glimpse of the Christians life. Hill also provides an appendix that sketches out a method for memorizing key passages from the Bible. Whether you have recently come to faith in Christ and wonder how God may shape your life in the coming years, or you have journeyed to the point in your Christian discipleship where you seek an unobstructed view of your calling as a Christian, A Glimpse of the Christian provides a no-nonsense, plain-spoken, and faithful explanation of the character and mission God grants to people who follow Jesus Christ.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The extreme value of what the Lord Jesus Christ accomplished while on earth is based on His true identity. He asked His disciples the piercing question: “Who do men say that I, the Son of Man, am?” His identity continues to be questioned today. The non-Christian community and church members alike struggle to know. Either Jesus Christ is God revealed in human flesh or He is not! This is the very issue that divides the entire human race. Evil powers continue to mount a steady assault upon the character of Christ. To disgrace His character is to destroy the effect of His work on the cross.

Download or read book The Genesis Enigma written by Andrew Parker and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2009-10-08 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An acclaimed, paradigm-shifting evolutionary biologist shows how the biblical story of Genesis uncannily reflects recent scientific discoveries-and finds room for divine inspiration within. Consider this: Genesis recounts the story of creation, step-by-step: "Let there be light"; "Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together into one place, and let the dry land appear"; "Let the earth bring forth [vegetation]"; "Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that hath life"; "God created the whales"; "And God created . . . every winged fowl." For thousands of years, Judeo-Christian belief has accepted this progression as truth. And now, thanks to recent scientific discoveries, the scientific community does, too (though without the mention of "God"). In The Genesis Enigma, respected evolutionary biologist Andrew Parker explains each parallel between Genesis and science in detail-and the closer he looks, the more amazing the parallels become. But the Genesis account has no right to be correct. The author or authors could not have known these things happened in this order, and with the highlights science has come to recognize. Ultimately, Parker argues, it must be divine inspiration that guided the writing of the Bible. This startling conclusion will make The Genesis Enigma a must-read for believers and scientists alike.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Facing a terminal cancer diagnosis, David Bryant looks back on his life and writes powerfully about the moments when he unexpectedly encountered God in the most unlikely places: a high security prison; at the bedside of a dying child; in the gift of imagination; or in Bible passages that have been startlingly brought to life in his own experience. Forty reflections offer a reading a day for Lent, with an explanatory introduction and a concluding Easter meditation. He draws widely on poetry, literature, art, music, and above all human encounter, to trace a divine thread running through a life that has been 'always unpredictable and often surprising'. David Bryant died shortly after delivering this final book to his publishers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In A Glimpse of the Coming King, author Richard J. “Dick” Hill explores what the Word of God teaches about the second coming of the Lord Jesus Christ. He invites believers to consider many biblical passages that predicted Christ’s first coming and then those that describe His second coming. The Bible student can look to the prophetic words of the Bible and get a glimpse of our coming King and reflect on how He will return–triumphant and victorious, ushering in a new epoch on this earth. This will be the time when the King of this entire universe, the Lord Jesus Christ, will return to this earth and be crowned King over all His created order. This small planet, so seemingly unimportant, will become the center of God’s amazing plan for this universe. By preparing spiritually now and studying the prophetic Word of God, we will treasure this magnificent kingdom and delight in the coming days of the King.
Download or read book The Changing South Pacific written by Serge Tcherkézoff and published by ANU E Press. This book was released on 2008-12-01 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The texts collected in this volume take an anthropological approach to the variety of contemporary societal problems which confront the peoples of the contemporary South Pacific: religious revival, the sociology of relations between local groups, regions and nation-States, the problem of culture areas, the place of democracy in the transition of States founded on sacred chiefdoms, the role of ceremonial exchanges in a market economy, and so forth. Each chapter presents a society seen from a specific point of view, but always with reference to the issue of collective identity and its confrontation with history and change. The collection thus invites the reader to understand how the inhabitants of these societies seek to affirm both an individual identity and a sense of belonging to the contemporary world. In doing so, it informs the reader about the contemporary realities experienced by the inhabitants of the South Pacific, with a view to contributing to an intercultural dialogue between the reader and these inhabitants.
