Download or read book God s Plan Revealed written by Robert C Luisi, Jr and published by . This book was released on 2020-11-03 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Creation (the belief that God was and is the Creator of all that is seen and unseen) went virtually undisputed in the Judeo-Christian orthodoxy until the 19th century. That is until Charles Darwin, an English biologist published his theory of evolution in 1859. Gradually, evolution became the preferred curriculum in our school systems and we were offered little evidence to choose between our faith and secular beliefs. Through this book, you are offered an alternative curriculum to the theory of evolution, that properly timelines the Bible, from the Book of Genesis through the Book of Revelations. Through visions and revelations, the author recorded how the sixty-six books of the Bible pertain to this timeline. Will you open the pages of this book with an open mind and receptive heart, or will you allow your religious and worldly belief systems to be a stumbling block for you? Remember this one thing, that the Lord rewards those who diligently seek him.

Download or read book The Beauty of the Lord written by Jonathan King and published by Lexham Press. This book was released on 2018-05-30 with total page 452 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why is God's beauty often absent from our theology? Rarely do theologians take up the theme of God's beauty—even more rarely do they consider how God's beauty should shape the task of theology itself. But the psalmist says that the heart of the believer's desire is to behold the beauty of the Lord. In The Beauty of the Lord, Jonathan King restores aesthetics as not merely a valid lens for theological reflection, but an essential one. Jesus, our incarnate Redeemer, displays the Triune God's beauty in his actions and person, from creation to final consummation. How can and should theology better reflect this unveiled beauty? The Beauty of the Lord is a renewal of a truly aesthetic theology and a properly theological aesthetics.

Download or read book The Timing of the Incarnation written by Robert G. Saba and published by Createspace Independent Pub. This book was released on 2012-09-01 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Faith, religion and science spring into dynamic interplay in the provocative book, The Timing of the Incarnation: God's True Plan Revealed? Seeking to respond to a seemingly neglected detail of Christian theology, author Robert G. Saba draws upon lifelong interests and contemporary scholarship in religion, psychology, biology, and natural science as he explores the question of why the first century of the Common Era, of all moments in history, was the time when God became man. The result is a challenging work brimming with ideas and new possibilities that raises serious implications and could lead to a better understanding of humanity's relationship to the divine. This direct and thorough investigation of why the incarnation of Christ occurred two thousand years ago, rather than at the dawn of humankind's emergence as Homo sapiens or, alternately, immediately before the end of the world, will inspire and encourage those looking for an updated, realistic perspective on religious thought. Starting systematically with a comprehensive review of the definition and longstanding assumptions about the Incarnation as detailed in the Catechism of the Catholic Church, The Timing of the Incarnation continues to explore the historical context and considerations surrounding this transforming event. This includes not only a thoughtful and enlightening overview of the Jewish, Greek, and Roman cultures that played critical roles in the advent and growth of Christianity, but also encompasses an assessment of the spiritual and social development of the world's other cultures in the first century. The Timing of the Incarnation reveals that the critical factor in this moment of sublime mystery was in actuality the readiness of humanity to respond to the divine. This discovery affords a stunning and refreshing change in how Christians can perceive the relationship between God and humanity, offering strength and encouragement in a dynamic that is more paternal than magisterial, more nurturing than controlling. This fundamental paradigm shift in our understanding provides a strong sense of connectedness to the divine, reminding us that God is and always has been actively present as a guiding force in our lives.

Download or read book Creation Plans written by Stephen E. Meeks and published by LifeRich Publishing. This book was released on 2020-12-13 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Before God created the universe, it apears to some of us that he must have had to undertake a lot of planning. God planned for all his creation to be put together and operate through mechanics, electrical and magnetic fields, and forces. He designed and planned for tiny subatomic particles to attract and repel, spin and fly. His atomic model baffled us for thousands of years. Yet, he also planned for life and spiritual existance. Stephen E. Meeks speculates on all of God’s planning in this important work, drawing on his knowledge of scripture and science. He seeks to discuss questions such as: What steps did God take to create life and achieve His plan of salvation? Did God keep some things a secret? What was he doing Before the creation? The author examines how God reveals his plan for a strong and orderly foundation on which He physically built creation and how His basic building blocks are revealed by science. From string theory and subatomic particles, light, day and night, and the heavens, to life, cellular mechanics, and more, this book hopes to share with you a new appreciation for God’s amazing work.

Download or read book The Missions and Missional Purpose of Ephesians written by Timothy A. van Aarde and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2023-01-12 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of the letter to the Ephesians is unknown. The book suggests that the purpose of Ephesians is about missions and being missional. The author of Ephesians committed the task of missions to the church. The author located the mission of the church in the redemptive plan of God. The redemptive "plan" (oikonomia) of God consists of historical epochs of missions: the mission of Israel, the mission of Christ, the mission of the disciples, the mission of the apostles, and the mission of the church. The term "missional" has been used ambiguously. The existence of a distinction between the mission of the church and missional church is demonstrated, and both expressions of mission are grounded in the biblical text of Ephesians. The mission of the church is grounded in an exposition of Eph 1-3, and the missional church is grounded in an exposition of Eph 4-6. The author of the letter intended for the mission to the nations to be continued by the church (this is the mission of the church). He intended for the members of the church to continue to reach out to their local community (this is expressed by the missional church). The mission of the church has been grounded in the Great Commission. The missional church is grounded in the values, morals, and lifestyle principles set out in Eph 4-6.

Download or read book God s Absence and the Charismatic Presence written by Roy D. Kindelberger and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2017-05-17 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author's theological inquiry is intended to raise questions of interpretation within the camp of openness theology and to direct a discussion on the implications of this movement for the charismatic/Pentecostal community. Open theism or openness theology affirms that the universe is open, the future is not settled, God is essentially relational love, and the risks of love and the threats against it are real. The author digs deep into this area of doctrine in order to question how far openness theology is willing to go. Is it only the future that is open to God, or are there perhaps unknown aspects to the past and present as well? What does God know about sin, and when does he know it? Is it possible for God to be totally absent from a person's life or even from an entire nation? If God can be absent, can he also be exceptionally present in the lives of believers? What would the divine presence and the charismata (spiritual ministries) look like in an open universe?
