Download or read book Divine Approval written by Mark Hankins and published by Harrison House. This book was released on 2017-10 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Understanding you have God's divine approval on your life sets you free from the sense of rejection, inadequacy or inferiority. You are free to receive God's best blessings and to follow His plan for your life. This confidence in God sets you free from constantly seeking approval from others. One of the most misunderstood subjects in the Bible is righteousness. The Gospel of Christ is a revelation of the righteousness of God. The center of the Gospel reveals the righteousness of God. I call righteousness a radical revelation, a revolutionary revelation. It is a reality that is produced for us by the Lord Jesus Christ.

Download or read book Telling Queen Michal s Story written by David J. A. Clines and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 1991-06-01 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book, an anthology of previously published writing about Michal together with some new and original essays, is something of an experiment. Its purpose is to provide reders with raw materials for developing their own reading of the Michal story. It does not offer a unified portrait of this biblical character, but rather invites readers to form their own assessment interactively with these readings of the Michal story. At the same time, this book presents some systematic guidance for coping with these divergent interpretations of the complex and tantalizing figure of Michal.
Download or read book Tales of Royalty written by Elisabeth Wagner-Durand and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2020-07-20 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The volume sheds light on Ancient Near Eastern kingship by focusing on its constant urge for legitimation. Thus, it highlights specific aspects like royal building activities, warfare and wisdom and frames these into material and textual expressions that take the powerful form of narratives. The contributions made in this volume look for specific topoi of kingship and examine which shapes they took and why. The publication determines which narrative topoi have once been selected to legitimize kingship, which media have been chosen to transmit these narratives, and what kind of narrative strategies have been applied. To consider both, texts and images, in the same margin, the book is based on a dual approach: referring to certain narrative themes both philological and archaeological material will be presented. By joining diverse perspectives of scholars of material culture and texts and their various approaches the publication promises new and special insight into the connection of narration and legitimation in Mesopotamia. It reflects Ancient Near Eastern kingship and its narrative strategies from a interdisciplinary and transmedial point of view and gives new insights into the matter of royal legitimation.
Download or read book The Hermeneutics of the Happy Ending in Job 42 7 17 written by Kenneth Numfor Ngwa and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2012-02-14 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The hermeneutics employed in this work is partly referred to as hindsight hermeneutics, and upholds the resonance and dissonance between the Epilogue of the Book of Job and the preceding sections. Within the Theophany-epilogue continuum, rebuke and approval, retribution and its suspension, divine transcendence and accessibility are all held together. The dramatically discordant traditions in the preceding section are not interpreted as competing alternatives but as complementary possibilities for understanding the nature of the divine-human relationship and responding to the threat and reality of chaos and suffering.

Download or read book The Resurrection of Jesus written by Dale C. Allison, Jr. and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2021-03-11 with total page 544 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The earliest traditions around the narrative of Jesus' resurrection are considered in this landmark work by Dale C. Allison, Jr, drawing together the fruits of his decades of research into this issue at the very core of Christian identity. Allison returns to the ancient sources and earliest traditions, charting them alongside the development of faith in the resurrection in the early church and throughout Christian history. Beginning with historical-critical methodology that examines the empty tomb narratives and early confessions, Allison moves on to consider the resurrection in parallel with other traditions and stories, including Tibetan accounts of saintly figures being assumed into the light, in the chapter “Rainbow Body”. Finally, Allison considers what might be said by way of results or conclusions on the topic of resurrection, offering perspectives from both apologetic and sceptical viewpoints. In his final section of “modest results” he considers scholarly approaches to the resurrection in light of human experience, adding fresh nuance to a debate that has often been characterised in overly simplistic terms of “it happened” or “it didn't”.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book gives a far reaching review of India's open administrations and bureaucratic frameworks, and investigates why across the board defilement and wasteful conveyance have hindered improvement. It: examines the hidden purposes behind the predominant wastefulness in broad daylight administrations; looks at the perplexing linkages between morals based open administration, India's social and profound legacy, and its current monetary advancement show; and plots approaches to make a morals code and a situation that is helpful for better organization and great administration. Clear, available, and fastidiously looked into, this will demonstrate basic to researchers and understudies of open organization, administration thinks about and political science, especially administrators, arrangement producers and common administration wannabes. This book arranges morals in administration in India in the national edge and fuses the setting of globalization, taking into consideration the expanding significance of non-state worldwide on-screen characters in national basic leadership. A hypothetical way to deal with the issues of morals in administration and defilement, this book is important to scholastics in the fields of Asian Politics, specifically Indian legislative issues, and political theory.
Download or read book The Scariest Word in the Bible written by Lance M. Bacon and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2018-08-14 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Jesus' view, "many" are wrong about being right with God. They anticipate a home in heaven but will receive an eternal eviction. How can we be sure that we are not among the many? This book will help you find that answer. Presented from a pastor's heart, this work combines exegetical analysis, theological acumen, and practical ministerial insight to help you obtain and maintain a saving relationship with God. The Parable of the Sower serves as the roadmap on our journey, as it provides remarkable insight on why "many" seeds fail to find good ground or bring forth good fruit. Jesus also reveals how we can tap the unimaginable potential for personal and kingdom growth contained within. The first section breaks up the hard ground to reveal the deep truths of sin and salvation. The second section identifies ways to overcome the stones that prevent spiritual growth--offense, unforgiveness, fear, solitude, and complacency. The third section analyzes the postmodern worldviews, deficient theologies, materialism, and the idolatry of self that suffocates many growing Christians. Only the believer who rightly responds to God can begin to live for God and ultimately live from God. This is God's salvation. Is it yours?

Download or read book Genesis 1 11 written by David M. Carr and published by Kohlhammer Verlag. This book was released on 2021-01-13 with total page 359 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This commentary offers a synthesis of close readings of Genesis 1-11 and up-to-date study of the formation of these chapters in their ancient Near Eastern context. Each interpretation of these evocative and multilayered narratives is preceded with a new translation (with textual and philological commentary) and a concise overview of the ways in which each text bears the marks of its shaping over time. This prepares for a close reading that draws on the best of older and newer exegetical insights into these chapters, a reading that then connects to feminist, queer, ecocritical, and other contemporary approaches.
Download or read book Discerning the Word of the Lord written by Michael W. Pahl and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2009-05-07 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1 Thessalonians 4:15, the Apostle Paul appeals to a "word of the Lord" to provide authority for his eschatological encouragement. This appeal has left a perplexing problem related to the nature and function of the specific authority to which the phrase refers. Two theories have predominated in the history of interpretation: either 1) it refers to a directly received prophetic revelation, whether to Paul or to another Christian prophet; or 2) it refers to a teaching of Jesus received as tradition, whether preserved in the Gospel tradition or otherwise unknown.This book investigates this problem from three angles: epistemological analysis, examining Paul's authorities for his knowledge, particularly in his eschatology; linguistic analysis, including both grammatical and lexical study of the phrase; and contextual analysis, setting the statement within its historical and literary contexts. These approaches converge to suggest a fresh solution to the problem: while Paul does appear to employ traditional Christian eschatological teaching in his response to the Thessalonian crisis (4:16-17a), the phrase ?? ???? ?????? does not refer to this tradition, but rather refers to the proclaimed gospel message about Jesus centred on his death and resurrection which forms the theological foundation of Paul's response (cf. 4:14).
