Download or read book God s Vineyard Israel written by Desiree Van Niekerk and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2013 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: God's Vineyard, Israel is a book about God's relationship with Israel. It is an exposition of Israel's spiritual condition, starting with God's deliverance of Israel from slavery and His ongoing intervention in their lives up to their spiritual decline. According to 1 Corinthians 10:11, Israel serves as an example for instruction for those upon whom the end of the ages have come, i.e. those who live in the latter days. Israel's turning to idolatry, false gods and syncretism (the fusion of holy with unholy) led to their falling away from God. Th e same falling away of the church is mentioned by Paul in the second book of Th essalonians which is indicative of the time toward the end of the age or the fulfi llment of the times of the Gentiles. A clear pattern emerges from those who are delivered from the kingdom of darkness into salvation and then the yearning for their previous condition. After God delivered Israel from Egypt, the Israelites yearned for their past. Th ereby, the repeated exhortation from Jesus Christ and others in the New Testament serve to explain the necessity to persevere unto the end. Th e similarity between ancient Israel and the modern church is noteworthy and one can only understand what is and will happen to the church through the example of Israel. Th is instruction is not only prophetic but serves as clear instruction and warning for modern believers. An analysis of idolatry and the consequences thereof explain the past, current and future probability of life as we know it. Contrary to world opinion of the causes and solutions to pollution, the Bible clearly states that it is the spiritual condition of mankind that determines the state of the earth. Th e Old Testament asserts that when Israel repented God often relented of the calamities He intended to send to them due to their idolatry. God's Vineyard, Israel makes for interesting and relevant reading for all people and often provides God's perspective rather than people's opinions or speculations. God's Vineyard, Israel provides examples of God's wrath and ancient judgments with the overwhelming message that few are saved! In between the severity of God's dealings with Israel and their ongoing rebellion is chapter 4, God's solution to humanity, His Son, Jesus Christ whose coming was prophesied throughout the Old Testament, the One who embodied God's grace and love for humanity! God's Vineyard is pertaining to the times in which we live, whereby increasingly people are falling away from the truth, seeking to create their own reality. It is a book led by the Holy Spirit of God and therefore relevant to the current spiritual condition that prevails throughout the world.
Download or read book Life Unsettled written by Cory Driver and published by Fortress Press. This book was released on 2021-08-10 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Increasingly, many Christians and spiritual seekers feel they are in a sort of wilderness space where the familiar, settled, and normal parts of life have become unsettled, out of balance. More and more people are evaluating their lives and asking, Where to now? In Life Unsettled, Cory Driver uses the metaphor of wilderness journeying (a hallmark of the life of faith across the millennia) and the study of biblical texts, ancient Jewish legends, modern theological insights, and his own personal journeys to provide a guide for moving forward when we feel lost and confused. The biblical book of Numbers takes center stage in the author's creative musings about life in the wilderness. The Hebrew title of Numbers is Bemidbar, which means In the Wilderness. In this oft-overlooked book are stories of God's passionate intimacy and anger, communal formation and struggles, and personal failures and triumphs. The author shows how the wilderness journey in Numbers has a deep relevance for our time and for our personal journeys. The book includes a discussion guide ideal for group use.

Download or read book The Last Days of Dispensationalism written by Alistair W. Donaldson and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2010-10-28 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume deals with the varied forms of shame reflected in biblical, theological, psychological and anthropological sources. Although traditional theology and church practice concentrate on providing forgiveness for shameful behavior, recent scholarship has discovered the crucial relevance of social shame evoked by mental status, adversity, slavery, abuse, illness, grief and defeat. Anthropologists, sociologists, and psychologists have discovered that unresolved social shame is related to racial and social prejudice, to bullying, crime, genocide, narcissism, post-traumatic stress and other forms of toxic behavior. Eleven leaders in this research participated in a conference on The Shame Factor, sponsored by St. Mark's United Methodist Church in Lincoln, NE in October 2010. Their essays explore the impact and the transformation of shame in a variety of arenas, comprising in this volume a unique and innovative resource for contemporary religion, therapy, ethics, and social analysis.
