Download or read book The Revelation of Jesus Christ written by Alex (Lazaro) Figueroa and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2020-09-29 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book, The Revelation of Jesus Christ, has been written on each chapter of the book of Revelation. Each chapter is written in plain English, giving the reader understanding of the symbols in the chapter and the book of Revelation. Each symbol in the book of Revelation can be found throughout the Scriptures, thus giving us the meaning and understanding of each one. If the wrong meaning or understanding of each symbol is given, then the entire book of Revelation is misunderstood. Within the pages of this book, we find the battles and victories of God's church down through the ages of time. Therefore, we can see God's people and the spiritual battles that were won by conquering the enemy of their time. These same battles are taking place in many places today, but we will be able to understand that God has a people and has always had a people who will stand for truth and right. The book of Revelation is a misunderstood book and one often feared by many. But read with understanding, it can be blessing to God's people everywhere. This book, Revelation of Jesus Christ, was originally written and printed in Spanish. Because of the large demand, it has been translated into English.

Download or read book Goddesses and the Divine Feminine written by Rosemary Ruether and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2005-05-16 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This landmark work presents the most illuminating portrait we have to date of goddesses and sacred female imagery in Western culture—from prehistory to contemporary goddess movements. Beautifully written, lucidly conceived, and far-ranging in its implications, this work will help readers gain a better appreciation of the complexity of the social forces— mostly androcentric—that have shaped the symbolism of the sacred feminine. At the same time, it charts a new direction for finding a truly egalitarian vision of God and human relations through a feminist-ecological spirituality. Rosemary Radford Ruether begins her exploration of the divine feminine with an analysis of prehistoric archaeology that challenges the popular idea that, until their overthrow by male-dominated monotheism, many ancient societies were matriarchal in structure, governed by a feminine divinity and existing in harmony with nature. For Ruether, the historical evidence suggests the reality about these societies is much more complex. She goes on to consider key myths and rituals from Sumerian, Babylonian, Egyptian, and Anatolian cultures; to examine the relationships among gender, deity, and nature in the Hebrew religion; and to discuss the development of Mariology and female mysticism in medieval Catholicism, and the continuation of Wisdom mysticism in Protestanism. She also gives a provocative analysis of the meeting of Aztec and Christian female symbols in Mexico and of today's neo-pagan movements in the United States.

Download or read book Understanding the Book of Daniel for This Generation Comprensi n El Libro De Daniel Para Esta Generaci n written by Earl B. Schrock and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2021-12-15 with total page 494 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The entire book of Daniel demonstrates the battle between good and evil from the days of Daniel to the very end of the ages when sin is completely destroyed. It reveals the ongoing battle where the sacred verses the secular and the holy verses the unholy. The author’s goal is to produce an easy to read book explaining the intent of each chapter in the book of Daniel, leading the reader to get a clearer understanding of Bible prophecy. The objective is to help people realize an interpretation of the book of Daniel, for our day, for this generation, is indispensable. There is a soon coming time of trouble and a time of tribulation we should know about, understand, and prepare for. Daniel Bible questions to ponder: How many years were Daniel’s people to be in Babylon? And why? How long is the “seven times” in which King Nebuchadnezzar was punished? How long is “time, times, and half a time”? When do the 70 weeks, 1260, 1290, 1335, and 2300 days begin? What is the Holy Covenant? What is the “continual” of Daniel 12:11? What is the “abomination of desolation”? Can a seven year tribulation period be substantiated in the Bible? What does “the appointed time of the end” timeline look like as designed by the Bible? Todo el libro de Daniel demuestra la batalla entre el bien y el mal desde los días de Daniel hasta el final de los tiempos cuando el pecado es completamente destruido. Revela la batalla en curso donde los versos sagrados lo secular y los versos santos lo profano. El objetivo del autor es producir un libro fácil de leer que explique la intención de cada capítulo del libro de Daniel, lo que lleva al lector a obtener una comprensión más clara de la profecía bíblica. El objetivo es ayudar a la gente a darse cuenta de que una interpretación del libro de Daniel, para nuestros días, para esta generación, es indispensable. Pronto vendrá un tiempo de angustia y un tiempo de tribulación que debemos conocer, comprender y para el que debemos prepararnos. Preguntas de la Biblia de Daniel para reflexionar: ¿Cuántos años estuvo el pueblo de Daniel en Babilonia? ¿Y por qué? ¿Cuánto duran las “siete veces” en las que se castigó al rey Nabucodonosor? ¿Cuánto tiempo es "tiempo, tiempos y medio tiempo"? ¿Cuándo comienzan las 70 semanas, 1260, 1290, 1335 y 2300 días? ¿Qué es el santo pacto? ¿Qué es lo “continuo” de Daniel 12:11? ¿Qué es la “abominación desoladora”? ¿Puede fundamentarse en la Biblia un período de tribulación de siete años? ¿Cómo se ve la línea de tiempo del “tiempo señalado del fin” según lo diseñado por la Biblia? Earl B. Schrock
Download or read book Our Lady of Everyday Life written by María Del Socorro Castañeda-Liles and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2018-03-01 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For Mexican Catholic women in the United States, devotion to Our Lady of Guadalupe-La Virgen-is a necessary aspect of their cultural identity. In this masterful ethnography, María Del Socorro Castañeda-Liles considers three generations of Mexican-origin women between the ages of 18 and 82. She examines the Catholic beliefs the women inherited from their mothers and how these beliefs become the template from which they first learn to see themselves as people of faith. She also offers a comprehensive analysis of how Catholicism creates a culture in which Mexican-origin women learn how to be "good girls" in a manner that reduces their agency to rubble. Through the nexus of faith and lived experience, these women develop a type of Mexican Catholic imagination that helps them challenge the sanctification of shame, guilt, and aguante (endurance at all cost). This imagination allows these women to transgress strict notions of what a good Catholic woman should be while retaining life-giving aspects of Catholicism. This transgression is most visible in their relationship to La Virgen, which is a fluid and deeply engaged process of self-awareness in everyday life.

Download or read book Pathways through Early Modern Christianities written by Andreea Badea and published by Böhlau Köln. This book was released on 2023-06-12 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the midst of a global pandemic, the Frankfurt POLY (Polycentricity and Plurality of Premodern Christianities) Lectures on "Pathways through Early Modern Christianities" brought together a virtual, global community of scholars and students in the Spring and Summer of 2021 to discuss the fascinating nature of early modern religious life. In this book, eleven pathbreaking scholars from the "four corners" of the early modern world reflect on the analytical tools that structure their field and that they have developed, revised and embraced in their scholarship: from generations to tolerance, from uniformity to publicity, from accommodation to local religion, from polycentrism to connected histories, and from identity to object agency. Together, the chapters of this reference work help both students and advanced researchers alike to appreciate the extent of our current knowledge about early modern christianities in their interconnected global context—and what exciting new travels could lie ahead.

It brings together twenty-two pieces, from diaries of religious exiles and missionary field observations, to studies from a variety of academic disciplines, so enabling a multitude of voices to be heard.

Download or read book Nahuatl Theater Our Lady of Guadalupe written by Barry D. Sell and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 2006-12-01 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The foundation legend of the Mexican devotion to Our Lady of Guadalupe is one of the most appealing and beloved of all religious stories. In this volume, editors Barry D. Sell, Louise M. Burkhart, and Stafford Poole present the only known colonial Nahuatl-language dramas based on the Virgin of Guadalupe story: the Dialogue of the Apparition of the Virgin Saint Mary of Guadalupe, an anonymous work from the late seventeenth or early eighteenth century, and The Mexican Portent, authored by creole priest Joseph Pérez de la Fuente in the early eighteenth century. The plays, never before published in English translation, are vital works in the history of the Guadalupe devotion, for they show how her story was presented to native people at a time when it was not universally known. Faithful transcriptions and translations of the plays are accompanied here by introductory essays by Poole and Burkhart and by three additional previously unpublished Guadalupan texts in Nahuatl. This volume is the second in a four-volume series titled Nahuatl Theater, edited by Sell and Burkhart.
