Download or read book Islam as Political Religion written by Shabbir Akhtar and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2010-10-18 with total page 454 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This comprehensive survey of contemporary Islam provides a philosophical and theological approach to the issues faced by Muslims and the question of global secularisation. Engaging with critics of modern Islam, Shabbir Akhtar sets out an agenda of what his religion is and could be as a political entity. Exploring the views and arguments of philosophical, religious and political thinkers, the author covers a raft of issues faced by Muslims in an increasingly secular society. Chapters are devoted to the Qur’an and Islamic literature; the history of Islam; Sharia law; political Islam; Islamic ethics; and political Islam’s evolving relationship with the West. Recommending changes which enable Muslims to move from their imperial past to a modest role in the power structures of today’s society, Akhtar offers a detailed assessment of the limitations and possibilities of Islam in the modern world. Providing a vision for an empowered yet rational Islam that distances itself from both Islamist factions and Western secularism, this book is an essential read for students and scholars of Islamic studies, religion, philosophy and politics.

Download or read book Armed Dangerous written by Evangelist Jacqueline Felton and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2020-04-24 with total page 49 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Late Walter Hawkins mentions in his song that “There’s a war going on and if you’re gonna win, so you better make sure that you have Jesus deep down within. This battle cannot be won with bullets and guns. For the enemy you cannot see with human faculties. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood but against principalities, against the rulers of darkness, against spiritual wickedness in high places. It’s a fact that Satan’s on your track and without any warning, he’ll launch his attack. So, you better make sure that you know that wherever you may go that you have the Sword, which is the Word of God deep down in your soul. We need the armour. We need the armour of the Lord” (Walter Hawkins, Love Alive III, 1984). This spiritual war has been waging since the fall of mankind. While living in The Garden of Eden, the serpent or Satan approached Eve and persuaded her to disobey God by eating from the Tree of Knowledge. And the Lord commanded the man, “you are free to eat from any tree in the garden; but you must not eat from the tree of knowledge of good and evil, for when you eat from it, you will certainly die” (Genesis 2:16-17). The Lord provides a tangible manual or guidebook called The Bible, for Born-Again Believers to conduct persuasive spiritual warfare in defeating the enemy. As you read this book, you will learn about spiritual warfare and its origin, the seven parts of the spiritual armour, and how to effectively conduct spiritual warfare. In all these things-----battles, tribulations, challenges, stressors, hardships, attacks) through Christ, you are more than a conqueror because of His love (Romans 8:37). It is our God’s desire for His children to live victoriously in every area of their lives. God bless you.

Download or read book God is Subversive written by Lee Griffith and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2011-04-12 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To Lee Griffith, being a peacemaker means much more than sporting PEACE T-shirts or voting for left-wing political candidates. Peacemaking is for him a daily practice of community formation, lifestyle decisions, and prayer ordinary living that is faithful to the gospel and happily out of sync with most of the world most of the time and it is a vital part of following Jesus Christ. In these challenging talks, Griffith a veteran anti-war activist who has been arrested many times for his pro-peace demonstrations sets forth a solidly biblical argument for uncompromising nonviolence. Along the way, he describes encounters with dumpster divers and prostitutes, with bag ladies and judges, with people who hear voices and see ghosts and he shares how, through these encounters and more, he has come to know better the subversive God of the gospel.

The programs discussed in this book were designed to provide participants with opportunities to gain self-insight, knowledge of moral and ethical codes of behaviors as well as group dynamics, communication skills, and cognitive tools used to diagnose problems and select the appropriate strategies for change. Unique features include: historical and current human relations problems and strategies; interdisciplinary approaches to the creation and development of human relations programs; an educational approach to the ways of supplementing and complementing relevant issues; emphasis on social justice and equity; and the similarities and differences among and between culturally different people. Several articles and essays that illustrate a few of the issues that concerned professional helpers may be involved in are included. Special attention is given to the consequences of unequal educational, economic, political, and social opportunities for some of our nation's citizens.

Download or read book Christ s Discipleship Deal written by Richard Christenson and published by Ambassador International. This book was released on 2018-01-08 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a former pastor, Richard Christenson has had the opportunity to address numerous congregations and men’s ministry groups throughout the northwestern United States, and his observations from these experiences are alarming. He found that comprehensive discipleship training that addresses the spiritual formation and mission involvement requirement of Christ’s followers has been replaced by “felt needs” driven programming and religious education classes. The result is, local churches are becoming increasingly ingrown and are comprised of consumers, spectators, and Jesus fans rather than cross-carrying followers of Jesus Christ. Richard Christenson believes this problem is the result of our incomplete presentation of the Gospel and our failure to provide comprehensive maturity, ministry, and mission training for church members. Christ’s discipleship deal comes with many temporal and eternal benefits, but there are also costs involved that need to be counted before making a commitment to become a follower of Christ. In his new book, Christ’s Discipleship Deal, Christenson offers assistance for local church leaders in identifying and correcting concerns related to their presentation of the Gospel, spiritual formation of their members, and proactive participation in Christ’s redemptive mission.
Download or read book Armed for Life written by Jennifer Jefferis and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2011-06-17 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a detailed and comprehensive look at the primary players, acts, motivations, and methods of the Army of God in their quest to make abortion illegal in the United States. The Army of God may not be widely known, but they are well established as an extremist Christian organization united in their belief that abortion must be stopped at all costs, including the use of violence or force. Who are the primary players in this underground terrorist group, what acts are they responsible for, and what are the motivations behind their quest to make abortion illegal in the United States? Armed for Life: The Army of God and Anti-Abortion Terror in the United States addresses these questions and more, drawing upon never-before-published interviews with members of the Army of God and their own writings to reveal the details of this grossly understudied organization—and to document what its existence and expansion says about our society.
