Download or read book Love Me Anyway written by Jared C. Wilson and published by Baker Books. This book was released on 2021-09-21 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There may be no more powerful desire in the human heart than to be loved. And not just loved, but loved anyway. In spite of what we've done or left undone, in spite of the ways we have failed or floundered. We long for an unconditional, lavish love that we know intrinsically we don't deserve. If you are tired, sad, yet always longing, bestselling author Jared C. Wilson has incredible news for you: that kind of love actually exists, and it is actually something you can experience--whether or not you're in a romantic relationship. In his signature reflective, conversational, and often humorous style, Wilson unpacks 1 Corinthians 13 to show us what real love looks like. Through engaging stories and touching anecdotes, he paints a picture of an extravagant God who not only puts the desire for love into our very souls but fulfills those desires in striking, life-changing ways.

Download or read book The Apostles written by Donald Guthrie and published by Zondervan. This book was released on 1975 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is impossible to understand the vitality of the Christian Church in the days of the apostles apart from an awareness of the power of the Holy Spirit in the lives of the apostles. From a fearful beginning before Pentecost, the Church suddenly came alive as the Spirit was poured out on all the believers who had gathered to pray. Professor Guthrie traces the dramatic history of the Church as narrated in the book of Acts, showing how the Holy Spirit gave boldness to witness, wisdom to make decisions, and insight into the truly universal character of the Church as both Jews and Gentiles were given the grace of repentance. The Church was not free of difficulties and crises. But these, too, were necessary for the growth of Christians in that fellowship known as the Body of Christ. Many of the apostles woke in response to weakness and opposition and suffering, and these writings remain as inspired Scripture for the strengthening of the saints of God.Through the centuries the inspired letters to the churches have given both incentive for ethical living on earth and hope for a glorious future when all things will be made new. This book will help one to see the living Church of Jesus Christ as the apostles saw it and wrote about it. The record of their love and labor for the Lord makes this an excellent companion volume to the author's earlier work, "Jesus, the Messiah." Says Prof. Guthrie of his new work: "It is hoped that this book, like its companion volume, will inspire many to a more diligent study of the New Testament itself. For this reason it is arranged...in convenient sections to provide a basis, if desired, for daily studies over a period of six months. The relevant New Testament passages are noted in each section." Thoroughly indexed and cross-referenced, "The Apostles" provides insight into and application of the New Testament writing.

Download or read book Books Which Influenced Our Lord and His Apostles written by John Ebenezer Honeyman Thomson and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-17 with total page 526 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Books Which Influenced Our Lord and His Apostles: Being a Critical Review of Apocalyptic Jewish Literature But to make this analysis really intelligible, it. was imperatively necessary also to give the setting of these books and their origin. This further involved the study of the peculiarly intimate connection they had with early Christianity. The more these Apocalypses were studied, the more clearly did the writer seem to see that our Lord and His apostles must have stood in n close and intimate relation with the school from which these books proceeded. The primary object now became subsidiary to another, viz. to show the links connecting the Jewish Apocalypses with Christianity. In pursuance of this design, it was the author's intention to have given a full digest of the doctrinal standpoint of the different books here taken under consideration, and to have shown how this formed a bridge from the position of old Judaism to Christianity; but time and space both failed. lie has simply devoted ft single chapter to this subject, and gives in it merely the outlines of what he had purposed. As the doctrinal evolution of the books in question implied a knowledge of the order in which they were written, it was necessary to subjoin to the analysis and description of them a criticism of their date, language, and probable place of origin. In this part of his inquiry the writer thought that it would be merely confusing to carry on the investigation by calling together all the theories he objected to, and, by dint of combating them, establish his own. It seemed better to lay down canons, and work rigidly in accordance with them. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book How Jesus Became God written by Bart D. Ehrman and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2014-03-25 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New York Times bestselling author and Bible expert Bart Ehrman reveals how Jesus’s divinity became dogma in the first few centuries of the early church. The claim at the heart of the Christian faith is that Jesus of Nazareth was, and is, God. But this is not what the original disciples believed during Jesus’s lifetime—and it is not what Jesus claimed about himself. How Jesus Became God tells the story of an idea that shaped Christianity, and of the evolution of a belief that looked very different in the fourth century than it did in the first. A master explainer of Christian history, texts, and traditions, Ehrman reveals how an apocalyptic prophet from the backwaters of rural Galilee crucified for crimes against the state came to be thought of as equal with the one God Almighty, Creator of all things. But how did he move from being a Jewish prophet to being God? In a book that took eight years to research and write, Ehrman sketches Jesus’s transformation from a human prophet to the Son of God exalted to divine status at his resurrection. Only when some of Jesus’s followers had visions of him after his death—alive again—did anyone come to think that he, the prophet from Galilee, had become God. And what they meant by that was not at all what people mean today. Written for secular historians of religion and believers alike, How Jesus Became God will engage anyone interested in the historical developments that led to the affirmation at the heart of Christianity: Jesus was, and is, God.

Book excerpt: Catholics are not Christians. They worship Mary. They do whatever the pope says. They cannot divorce. They eat fish on Fridays. These flawed but common statements reflect a combined ignorance of and fascination with Catholicism and the Catholic Church. Catholicism Today: An Introduction to the Contemporary Catholic Church aims to familiarize its readers with contemporary Catholicism. The book is designed to address common misconceptions and frequently-asked questions regarding the Church, its teachings, and the lived experience of Catholics in modern societies worldwide. Opening with a concise historical overview of Christianity in general and Catholicism in particular, the text explores the core beliefs and rituals that define Catholicism in practice, the organization of the Church and the Catholic calendar, as well as the broad question of what it means to be Catholic in a variety of cultural contexts. The book ends with a discussion of the challenges facing the Church both now and in the coming decades. Also included are two short appendices on Eastern Catholicism and Catholicism in the United States.
