Download or read book Announcing the Kingdom written by Arthur F. Glasser and published by Baker Academic. This book was released on 2003-09-01 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Announcing the Kingdom provides a comprehensive survey of the biblical foundation of mission. It investigates the development of the kingdom of God theme in the Old Testament, describing what the concept tells us about God's mission in creation, the flood, and the covenant with Abraham. It then describes God's mission through the nation of Israel during the exodus, at Mt. Sinai, and through the kings of Israel. The book then examines God's mission as Israel is sent into exile and the stage is set for the Messiah's coming. Finally, the book considers the fulfillment of the kingdom of God through Jesus Christ and the church. It examines Jesus' parables and ministry, his proclamation of God's kingdom among the nations, and the work of the Holy Spirit through the church. Announcing the Kingdom is the product of Arthur Glasser's more than thirty years of teaching and has been used by thousands of students at Fuller Theological Seminary. Now revised by Glasser's colleagues, this study provides mission workers and students with a new understanding of their calling and its biblical foundation.
Download or read book The Mandate written by Myra A. Cooper and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2021-04-05 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Mandate is written for you! It is to give you encouragement and understanding that life can be successful as a believer as well as in your professional training or whatever you have been called to do in the world. Be encouraged to know that even as God's love for you is real, His Will is that you share that love with others. This means that if God says it, we are capable of doing it, and we have an obligation to do so. This is the main reason he sent you and me to the earth! This may not happen if we carry a secret embarrassment toward letting others know that we are Believers. This can happen at work, the neighborhood, or within one's personal relationships. Hence many just fall in line with the status quo. The Book reveals that you have been called to a higher commitment and witness for God without having to be overbearing. Just being true to your testimony, which comes naturally with trust in God. His Will is that we do not just live our lives, then pass on and make it to Heaven having never told another of His Love. The Mandate outlines areas that are important in helping believers (you and me) be effective witnesses by, drawing closer to God through Prayer; showing how the enemy tries to use Believers for his own purpose, the presence of the Holy Spirit within you is, understanding when God is speaking to you, living successfully through true life situations, including the power to forgive, overcoming fear and guarding your tongue. God's Promises are great to hold on to because He will surely give you much Peace, Hope and Prosperity with the courage to remain resolved and live successfully.
Download or read book Created and Creating written by William Edgar and published by SPCK. This book was released on 2017-03-16 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The gospel of Jesus Christ is always situated within a particular cultural context: but how should Christians approach the complex relationship between their faith and the surrounding culture? Should we simply retreat from culture? Should we embrace our cultural practices and mindset? How important is it for us to be engaged with our culture and mindset? How might we do that with discernment and faithfulness? William Edgar offers a biblical theology in the light of our contemporary culture that contends that Christians should -- and indeed, must -- engage with the surrounding culture. By exploring what Scripture has to say about the role of culture and gleaning insights from a variety of theologians -- including Abraham Kuyper, T. S. Eliot, H. Richard Niebuhr and C. S. Lewis -- Edgar contends that cultural engagement is a fundamental aspect of human existence. He does not shy away from those passages that emphasize the distinction between Christians and the world. Yet he finds, shining through the biblical witness, evidence that supports a robust defence of the cultural mandate to 'be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth and subdue it' (Genesis 1:28). With clarity and wisdom, Edgar argues that we are most faithful to our calling as God's creatures when we participate in creating culture.

Six revolutionary voices in the modern church deliver Invading Babylon. This essential guide will equip you to: Understand your vital role in shaping society.

Download or read book The Divine Mandates written by Morris A. Inch and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2017-02-20 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two rival analogies compete for our attention: the law of the jungle, and the sacred canopy. As for the former, life consists of the survival of the fittest. As for the latter, the divine mandates serve as a framework for social ethics. This is in keeping with the conviction that we live in God's world, by his grace, and for his glory. The first major segment consists of a paper trail, where the topic is explored in context of biblical narrative. The second discusses the four traditional mandates, as pertains to labor, family, government, and church. The third touches on the endowments, with reference to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. All things considered, the text is calculated to contribute to a Christian world and life view. In greater detail, the mandates serve in a dual capacity. Obviously, to establish the credentials for select social institutions, but also by insisting persons to comply with legitimate social obligations. Meant to superintend God's creation, humans continue to fall short of their appointed task. Along with the diminishing of God's glory. Calling for a commitment to the divine mandates, and their extended implications.

Download or read book God s Mandate for Transforming Your Nation written by Dexter Low and published by Charisma Media. This book was released on 2016 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is the church's mission in the 21st century? Malaysian apostle and missiologist Dexter Low says "nation transformation" must become our new agenda for fulfilling the Great Commission in our time. The current model, which calls for uniting the church's leaders worldwide to win 1 billion souls and plant 5 million churches by 2021, isn't working. Ultimately it cannot because its emphasis on church planting and evangelism excludes social transformation. But when the key pillars of social influence are also realigned according to kingdom principles, then your nation, any nation, will be transformed. God's Mandate for Transforming Your Nation provides practical instructions on advancing God's kingdom globally. True examples of ways that lead to measurable results are included. Low will both challenge and inspire you as a Christian leader to take a significant step forward in fulfilling the church's mission in the 21st century.
