Download or read book God s Light Bulb written by Muzella Hayes Ph.D and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2019-10-22 with total page 70 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Earthly man does not always understand the revelations of the Word; it is therefore sometimes necessary to use metaphors or parables as Jesus did when teaching the Jews about the kingdom of God. In the same vein, this dissertation uses the metaphor of a light bulb that can emanate light""when plugged into an electrical source""to the light that shines from God. Going further with this metaphor, the "light bulb of God" takes its energy from the Lord himself as it shines in the lives of everyone who believes in God. Light is used to show the way, as roads, airport runways, and stations are lit to facilitate easier traveling to humans. Light, as humans know it, was only possible after electricity was discovered. Caldwell stated that in New York, "by the late 1870's electric light was no longer a novelty, though the city didn't get its first consumer power grid until eight-teen eighty-two." The city put electrical lights to good use as the New York Train System lit up the tracks twenty-four hours a day""this provided an indication of the way the train would go. This was considered light that would guide the way for so many people travelling the city. This train line pointing to the way people should go can be seen as a metaphor for The Way in a biblical sense. There are people who do not know or believe that the first light was God's light.

Download or read book Broken Lenses Volume 3 written by Emily Bernath and published by Morgan James Publishing. This book was released on 2023-09-19 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the third book in Emily Bernath’s Broken Lenses series, Broken Lenses Volume 3: Experiencing God’s Freedom in a World of Sin steps back to answer the questions, “Who is God? Do I want to get to know God? What do I get out of it?” Anyone can walk into a church and hear messages about the goodness and holiness of God, but what does that really mean? And how does God’s goodness impact everyday people? Broken Lenses Volume 3 aims to answer these questions head-on, with each chapter looking at a different characteristic of God’s nature, how God emulates that characteristic, and how having a God who holds those characteristics impacts every human being. It’s one thing to know that God is holy, sovereign, and merciful—it’s another to know how God chooses to exercise that holy, sovereign, and merciful nature. Everyone wants freedom from the shame and guilt of sin, but only God is qualified to provide that freedom. While many paint their own picture of God’s identity and intention, Broken Lenses Volume 3 aims to dispel conflicting information about the heart of God and teach readers about God’s true nature—and the true freedom available to all who seek a relationship with Him.
Download or read book Paradox Lost written by Catherine Skurja and published by Whitaker House. This book was released on 2013-08-08 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What if there was a way to peel back the broken and tattered pieces of ourselves, and uncover a new life of freedom, adventure, and transformation? For many of us, our misconceptions about the nature and character of the triune God have kept us from the freedom and joy found in our true identity in Christ. Damaging cycles of shame and the endless effort to look the part keep us trapped in drama and fear. Unable to grasp the paradox of a God who is both Lion and Lamb, we end up feeling alone, stuck on the banks of the river while a life of passion and adventure beckons. Using stories of transformation, Paradox Lost presents a framework for understanding our patterns of “stuckness” and provides specific tools for getting off the riverbanks and into the current. With life-giving insight into God’s nature, readers will find the courage to uncover their own wounded places, as well as invite others to experience the wholeness of abundant life in Christ.

Download or read book The Story of Christian Theology written by Roger E. Olson and published by InterVarsity Press. This book was released on 2009-08-20 with total page 656 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Christianity Today Book of the Year Award ECPA Gold Medallion Award History is made up of stories--narratives that recount the events, movements, ideas and lives that have shaped religions and nations. Theologian Roger Olson believes that the history of Christian theology should be told as such a story, one replete with thick plots, exciting twists, interesting people and fascinating ideas. In this panoramic work of historical theology Olson vividly recounts the deeds and words of the cultists and apostolic fathers of the second century, the clash between the theological schools of Alexandria and Antioch, the epochal division between East and West, the revolutionary advent of the Reformation and much more, right on up to the dazzling, sometimes dismaying fallout that has continued to shake Christians through the twentieth century. Through it all Olson detects and traces a common thread: a concern for salvation--God's redemptive activity in forgiving and transforming sinful human beings. Evenhanded, refreshingly readable, impressive in its breadth and depth, The Story of Christian Theology is poised to become a standard historical theology text.

Download or read book Be Light written by Samuel Rodriguez and published by WaterBrook. This book was released on 2017-02-21 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Blueprint for Overcoming Darkness and Living in God’s Light... Our world unravels more each day. It feels as if we’re drowning in a sea churning with greed, violence, and lust. As darkness advances, hope dims. Yet within that reality, God gives us a profound mandate... Be Light Light has always defined God and His followers. At creation, God spoke light into existence. Jesus is the light of the world. And we are born to absorb and then reflect God’s light. In Be Light Samuel Rodriguez—described by Fox News and CNN as “America’s most influential Latino Evangelical leader”—provides a blueprint for confronting darkness in every realm of our lives. He issues a clarion call for individual believers and the church to rise up and once again be that bright city on a hill that doesn’t simply expose the invading darkness, but overcomes it with God’s blazing light. “When we share the message of Jesus, the candles of others are lit and more and more darkness is driven out of our world. Our prayer is that this excellent book will inspire millions—including you—to Be Light.” —Roma Downey, producer and actress
Download or read book A New Handbook of Christian Theologians written by Donald W. Musser and published by Abingdon Press. This book was released on 1996-09-01 with total page 525 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, the flow of Christian theology has been channeled in diverse streams represented by such trends and movements as black theology, liberation theology, feminist theology, and womanist theology. To survey this abundance and diversity of current Christian theology, this book examines the theologies of representative theologians. Particularly to help students navigate the sea of information, the editors have identified various routes for reading, and have traced several threads or issues common to many of the essays, thus demarcating such recurrent concerns as the ways in which the theologians consider the sources and goals for theology, their variant assumptions and conclusions about the nature of God, their divergent approaches to understanding the person and purpose of the Christ, and their distinct expectations for the destiny of history and faith.
