Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When we think of a detective story, we often think of murder mysteries. But the Bible contains some different kinds of detective stories. How is it, for instance, that some of the key personalities in the Bible story slip into the story almost unnoticed—like Judah, for example, an ancestor of King David and Jesus Christ. How did the symbolism of blood in Communion get started? When Cain was warned that the ground would no longer yield for him because he had killed his brother—did that set a precedent for connecting moral behavior with environmental harshness? These themes and many others are investigated in this study, accompanied by a discussion guide.

Download or read book Familiar Bible Stories with a Twist written by David F Rundle and published by . This book was released on 2021-08-09 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When you read stories in the Bible, what do you hear? Maybe you hear the children playing or fighting. Or possibly the dog is barking, and you can't hear yourself think. Maybe highway noises or a firetruck siren is heard. There are likely innumerable answers to this question. But when I read Bible stories, I hear people in the background of the story talking, laughing, shouting, and arguing. I see trees, rocks, animals, and houses. During 2018 I began studying the Bible, God's Word, in more depth than ever before. My studies in the Bible began in II Samuel and concluded in II Kings at that time. As I read many times, my mind wandered as I thought of the people, situations, countryside, cities/towns, etc. I wonder about their daily lives and what they did on a day-to-day basis. And, so, what follows is my collection of some historical fiction stories gleaned from my mind's eye. I trust that you will enjoy this escape into my imagination, and maybe this will inspire you to think more about the background of what's happening in the Bible events you read.

Book excerpt: Do you ever feel left out, lonely, or less than? Today, learn the secret of belonging which will help you keep rejections in perspective and be better equipped to foster healthy connections in your relationships. In Uninvited, Lysa shares her own deeply personal experiences of rejection from the perceived judgment of the perfectly toned woman one elliptical over to the incredibly painful childhood abandonment by her father. She leans in to honestly examine the roots of rejection, as well as rejection's ability to poison relationships from the inside out, including our relationship with God. With biblical depth, gut honest vulnerability, and refreshing wit, Lysa will help you: Stop feeling left out by believing that even when you are overlooked by others you are handpicked by God. Change your tendency to either fall apart or control the actions of others by embracing God-honoring ways to process your hurt. Know exactly what to pray for the next ten days to steady your soul and restore your confidence in the midst of rejection. Overcome the two core fears that feed your insecurities by understanding the secret of belonging. Uninvited reminds us we are destined for a love that can never be diminished, tarnished, shaken, or taken—a love that does not reject or uninvite.
Download or read book Scripture Twisting written by James W. Sire and published by InterVarsity Press. This book was released on 2009-09-20 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How often have you encountered some bizarre doctrine only to be stunned to hear a Bible verse quoted to support it? With new religious cults springing up almost daily and old ones growing rapidly, this is more and more common. How are they seemingly able to twist Scripture to mean something orthodox Christians have never believed it to mean in two thousand years? James Sire, author of The Universe Next Door and How to Read Slowly, has isolated twenty separate kinds of reading errors which are characteristically made by cultists as they interpret the Bible. He covers the full range from simple misquotation to complex argumentation which links one slightly eccentric interpretation to another, mixes in a few orthodox readings and ends with a conclusion totally foreign to the biblical world view. Sire also handles twisted translation, overspecification, virtue by association, ignoring the context and other flawed interpretations. A book to help us all become better readers of the Scriptures.
