Book excerpt: "What do you want from me?" The tone of this question that I passionately asked the Lord during this season comes from a place of broken humility and sincere desire. I was in the middle of a mental battle that was full of anxiety and chaos. I was crying out to God in sincere prayer in the midst of my pain. There was no fancy theology attached to my petition. Only sincere cries to be delivered from this pain. Have you been in a difficult season like I was? Do you ever dream of having more peace in your life? Do you consistently relate to words like anxiety, fear, stress, mental unrest, disorder, or hostility? If so, this book is for you. In this book I take a practical and theological approach to the topic of peace, through the lens of abiding in Christ. My heart for this book is: ?To help you see what it means to have an intimate abiding relationship with Jesus Christ. ?That through this relationship you will gain practical Biblical understanding of how to abide in His peace.?To help you learn to identify sources that detract from your peace along with practical tools to deal with them. ?To show you how to win the mental battle that rages in many of our minds. At the end of each chapter is an application-focused workbook section that will help you take what you are learning and incorporate it into your daily discipleship journey, share in a small group, or teach others. Whether you struggle with mental illness, have anxiety and fear, know someone struggling to find peace, or simply want to explore this topic through a biblical lens, this book is for you. Abiding in Peace will encourage you on your journey and help you find healing and abundant life.

Download or read book Against Jovinianus written by St. Jerome and published by Dalcassian Publishing Company. This book was released on 2019-12-07 with total page 97 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jovinianus, about whom little more is known than what is to be found in Jerome's treatise, published a Latin treatise outlining several opinions: That a virgin is no better, as such, than a wife in the sight of God. Abstinence from food is no better than a thankful partaking of food. A person baptized with the Spirit as well as with water cannot sin. All sins are equal. There is but one grade of punishment and one of reward in the future state. In addition to this, he held the birth of Jesus Christ to have been by a "true parturition," and was thus refuting the orthodoxy of the time, according to which, the infant Jesus passed through the walls of the womb as his Resurrection body afterwards did, out of the tomb or through closed doors.

Download or read book On First Principles written by Origen and published by Ave Maria Press. This book was released on 2013-12-09 with total page 576 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Origen’s On First Principles is a foundational work in the development of Christian thought and doctrine: it is the first attempt in history at a systematic Christian theology. For over a decade it has been out of print with only expensive used copies available; now it is available at an affordable price and in a more accessible format. On First Principles is the most important surviving text written by third-century Church father, Origen. Origen wrote in a time when fundamental doctrines had not yet been fully articulated by the Church, and contributed to the very formation of Christianity. Readers see Origen grappling with the mysteries of salvation and brainstorming how they can be understood. This edition presents G. W. Butterworth’s trusted translation in a new, more readable format, retains the introduction by Henri de Lubac, and includes a new foreword by John C. Cavadini. As St. Gregory of Nazianzus, Doctor of the Church, wrote: “Origen is the stone on which all of us were sharpened.”
