Book excerpt: Excerpt from Christian Suffering, Its Dignity and Its Efficacy: Sermon, Occasioned by the Death of the Hon. Ambrose Spencer, and Preached in St. Peter's Church, Albany, on Sunday, March 19, 1848 Conflicts, no more fearful strivings, no more seeing through a glass darkly! The righteous hath hope in his death. Instead of shrinking from the grave, in horror and despair, we can go to it with tranquil assurance to carry our precious Christian dust, or to seek a resting place for our own mortal flesh. We look, not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen. Christ hath died; yea, is risen again. Because He lives, we, His members, shall live also; and we can say, with an Apostle, 0, Death! Where is thy sting! O, Grave! Where is thy victory! Thanks be to God which giveth us the victory, through our Lord Jesus Christ! About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Suffering in the Face of Death written by Bryan R. Dyer and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2017-04-20 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Suffering and death are two topics that are frequently referred to in the Epistle to the Hebrews, but have rarely been examined within scholarship on this important New Testament text. Dyer redresses the balance in this study of these topics, conducting a thorough investigation using semantic domain analysis. He incorporates recent advancements in modern linguistics, in particular the 'context of situation', and then connects these topics to the social situation addressed in Hebrews. In so doing he is able to reveal how the author is responding to the reality of suffering in the lives of his audience. With this awareness, it becomes clear how the author also responds to his audience's pain by creating models of endurance in suffering and death. These serve to motivate his audience toward similar endurance within their own social context. Dyer shows that it is possible to make significant determinations about the social setting of Hebrews based upon an examination and analysis of the language used therein.
Download or read book God in Pain written by and published by Abingdon Press. This book was released on 2010-09-01 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Everyone understands human pain. But many Christians have difficulty comprehending God's pain, especially God's pain in the death of Christ. Is it atonement or child abuse? To speak of God in pain, says Barbara Brown Taylor, is not only to address the biblical stories of Christ's suffering and death, but also to proclaim the God who is present in our pain. This volume of teaching sermons on suffering presents different approaches to the problem of God in pain. In each sermon, Taylor speaks with sensitivity and profound insight as she addresses pain and both its human and divine impact.

Download or read book The Christian s Biggest Challenge And Other Hard Truths Concerning Suffering written by Clayton Howard Ford and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2019-04-19 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Suffering, whether it has come through sickness, tribulation, or persecution, has been an integral part of the Christian lifestyle throughout Church history. But it is not an integral part of the modern Western lifestyle. Some would even teach that suffering should not be an integral part of the modern Christian lifestyle. The Word of Faith ministers would have us believe that God wants us to be healthy and wealthy all of the time, even on this earth in this lifetime. These essays challenge us to look afresh at the role of suffering, in whatever form it takes, in the Christian's life. They remind us that we Christians are called by God to suffer not only for our sake but also for the sake of others and for the sake of Christ. And they remind us that no matter how long we suffer, it is only temporary. We have another life waiting for us. These essays were written to help us to understand what the Word actually says about healing and suffering and so find the faith to endure.

Download or read book Why Does Man Suffer written by Leslie John and published by Leslie M. John. This book was released on 2018-01-10 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: DESCRIPTION This book is based on the teachings of the Bible. Among several important teachings, the teaching on suffering is vividly laid out in the New Testament. Suffering started in the Garden of Eden, when man transgressed God's command, and the man and the woman were cast out of the Garden, and lost fellowship with God. Man has choice to live for God transforming his old nature and becoming a new creature in the Lord, or choose to live lewd and vulgar life. The consequences of living outside the purview of the teachings of the Bible are very serious. Unless man chooses to have right thinking and live a good and pleasing life he would end up in suffering. Suffering may be either of physical, or of mental, but living a sinful life will surely lead to suffering. Bible admonishes to rejoice when suffering overtakes us for right reasons. It is such suffering that causes man to come closer to God. Because God is love, He sent His one and only Son, Lord Jesus Christ into this world to save mankind from perishing and to reconcile them to the Father. When Man suffers from either pain, loss, or sickness, he will no longer have inclination to sin anymore. Suffering overtakes man's capacity of sinning. Lord Jesus said... "Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness' sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven." (Matthew 5:10) Suffering for the right cause brings blessings, while suffering for wrong reasons brings disaster in life. There is a great difference between suffering for the right cause and suffering for criminal activities. Suffering for illegal causes and feeling sorry over such actions would not absolve one from being punished in this world, or in the world to come.
Download or read book The Varieties of Religious Experience written by William James and published by The Floating Press. This book was released on 2009-01-01 with total page 824 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Harvard psychologist and philosopher William James' The Varieties of Religious Experience: A Study in Human Nature explores the nature of religion and, in James' observation, its divorce from science when studied academically. After publication in 1902 it quickly became a canonical text of philosophy and psychology, remaining in print through the entire century. "Scientific theories are organically conditioned just as much as religious emotions are; and if we only knew the facts intimately enough, we should doubtless see 'the liver' determining the dicta of the sturdy atheist as decisively as it does those of the Methodist under conviction anxious about his soul. When it alters in one way the blood that percolates it, we get the Methodist, when in another way, we get the atheist form of mind."
