Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the very beginning of the church, Christians have found it helpful to pause for prayer during various times of the day. Whether for morning or evening devotions or other fixed-time prayers, such spiritual respites were deemed essential to worshiping God. Over the years, Christians developed a structure for such moments of worship, keyed to the time of day and season of the year. Part of its genius was the seamless integration of Scripture and prayer. This ancient practice, called the "Daily Office," has experienced a resurgence of use in our time. "Seeking God's Face" is a user-friendly approach to this form of prayer and devotion. Each office includes a psalm of praise, a passage of Scripture, and a brief set of prayers. An introduction to prayer-book use from Eugene Peterson is included to acclimate readers to this form. This edition features 11.5 point type that makes for comfortable reading without straining.

Download or read book Saving God s Face written by Jackson Wu and published by WCIU Press. This book was released on 2013-04 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Years ago, the author had a startling realization. Theologians and pastors have long taught on the glory of God and its central importance in the Bible. However, because he was living in East Asia, it also dawned on the author that this sort of talk about God's glory, praising Him, and magnifying His name was simply another way of talking about honor and shame. When the author looked at most theology and ministry-related books, he found that honor and shame seemed to be treated differently. Anthropologists talked about honor-shame, but theologians largely focused more on legal metaphors. The author could see both themes in Scripture but couldn't find help as to how to bring them together. This study was developed in order to address this gap and bring those themes together.

Download or read book Does God Have a Face written by Anunaki Watcher and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-12-31 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The creation of mankind described in the book of Genesis of the Old Testament Bible clearly states that God made man in his image (1:26-28). In our current knowledge of genetics, the creation of mankind by God suggests he used some of his DNA to genetically engineer human beings from apes, which explains how humans and chimpanzees share 99.8% of the same genes. In our modern day theology, it is generally unclear whether God is a corporal being, or a great amorphous spirit without a face. However, in the Book of Revelations in the New Testament Bible, it is stated that God will "walk with man" for a thousand years, suggesting God has a physical form, not dissimilar to that of human beings (20:6). It is unknown whether God is always in physical form, or whether he transforms himself to enter a corporal body, such as what happened to Jesus Christ in his resurrection as reported in the four Gospels in the New Testament Bible. However, as Jesus was able to be a physical being to interact with humans, so much greater would his Father in Heaven be?
