Download or read book God is Said to do that which He Only Permits written by Troy J. Edwards and published by Troy Edwards. This book was released on 2015-12-04 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “It is usual in Scripture to attribute to the Supreme Power, acts which are virtually those of his instruments, and which he merely permits.” – Charles Edward Fraser-Tytler Many false charges have been leveled at God by His critics (atheists, agnostics, satanists, etc.) due to misreading the Bible. Part of the problem has been the failure to understand the idiomatic language used in the Ancient Near East, especially among the Hebrew people, from which our God inspired Scriptures have their origin. This failure has led to more misunderstandings about God and His inspired Word than we can attest to. While the Hebrews had numerous idioms I am fully persuaded that the most neglected one among theologians and Bible translators has been what I prefer to label as “the permission idiom”. This is the idiom that, as we will learn in this study, scholars tell us is one in which God is said to be the cause of that which He merely allowed or permitted or did not prevent from happening. May the Lord use this book to help you understand Him and your Bible better.

Download or read book Does God Send Sickness written by Troy J. Edwards and published by Troy Edwards. This book was released on 2020-08-26 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “God is said in Scripture to send what he can (but doth not) hinder from being sent.” – Edward Bird (1726)God has been taking the blame for sickness and disease for centuries. We have been told that He sends sickness as an aid to spiritual growth and piety or as a punishment for sin. Vast amounts of Scripture have been cited to support this claim.This idea has contributed to the lack of faith prevalent in the church today for healing and deliverance. After all, if God gave a person sickness then His willingness to heal is questionable. Faith can only be present where the will of God is known. However, if sickness is seen as an enemy of God then faith in God’s willingness to heal is more likely to rise.Numerous apologetic books have been written in support of divine healing, but most have not dealt completely with the many Biblical passages that appear to make God the direct cause of sickness. This book is different in that it will look at these difficult Bible passages in light of the permissive idiom of the ancient Hebrew language, in which God is often said to do the things that He merely allowed or permitted to happen. Those passages in both the Old and New Testaments that make God appear to be a cold and cruel dispenser of sickness and disease will be seen in a new light. You will see God’s loving character vindicated, your Bible will be a fresh source of blessing, and your faith in God for health and healing will soar.
Download or read book How written by Troy J. Edwards and published by Troy Edwards. This book was released on with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, How? We will look at a number of God’s acts recorded in the Bible, those acts that upon a superficial reading of Scripture, paint Him as malicious, harsh, hypocritical and in some cases, worse than the humans whose sin He punishes. Hopefully when you see the explanations that the Word of God itself offers you will see the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ in a new light. Some of the questions this book attempts to answer are: How Does God Reveal His Wrath? How Does God Bring Judgment? How Does God Create Evil? How Does “God’s Hand” Go Against Sinners? How Does God Punish? How Does God Kill? How Does God Smite? How Does God Curse? How Does God Tempt? How Does God Deceive? How Does God Harden Hearts? How Does God Destroy? How Does God Send Sickness?

Download or read book The Hebrew Idiom of Permission written by Troy J. Edwards and published by Troy Edwards. This book was released on 2022-08-25 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We appropriately use the Bible as our foundation for all Christian belief and practice because we rightly recognize it as God’s written Word. Why then is there such a lack of clarity on the God that this book is supposed to reveal to us within its pages? Why does He claim to be good, compassionate, and merciful while He is accused of hardening hearts, tempting people, causing sickness and accidents, etc. in so many other places? The issues arise from our failure to accurately understand and apply the “idiom of permission” to our reading and study of this holy text. In this book, Pastor Troy J. Edwards provides the scholarly evidence that the Bible uses the idiom of permission frequently, and he discusses how the application of this idiom will resolve many issues related to our understanding of God’s character.
