Download or read book The War with God written by Pramit Chaudhuri and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2014-03-27 with total page 403 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Epic and tragedy, from Homer's Achilles and Euripides' Pentheus to Marlowe's Tamburlaine and Milton's Satan, are filled with characters challenging and warring against the gods. Nowhere is the theme of theomachy more frequently and powerfully represented, however, than in the poetry of early imperial Rome, from Ovid's Metamorphoses at the beginning of the first century AD to Statius' Thebaid near its end. This book -- the first full-length study of human-divine conflict in Roman literature -- asks why the war against god was so important to the poets of the time and how this understudied period of literary history influenced a larger tradition in Western literature. Drawing on a variety of contexts -- politics, religion, philosophy, and aesthetics -- Pramit Chaudhuri argues for the fundamental importance of battles between humans and gods in representing the Roman world. A cast of tyrants, emperors, rebels, iconoclasts, philosophers, and ambitious poets brings to life some of the most extraordinary artistic products of classical antiquity. Based on close readings of the major extant epics and selected tragedies, the book replaces a traditionally Aeneid-centric view of imperial epic with a richer dialogue between Greek and Roman texts, contemporary authors, and diverse genres. The renewed sense of a tradition reveals how the conflicts these works represent constitute a distinctive theology informed by other discourses yet peculiar to epic and tragedy. Beginning with the Greek background and ending with a look ahead to developments in the Renaissance, this book charts the history of a theme that would find its richest expression in a time when men became gods and impiety threatened the very order of the world.

Download or read book Your Gift from God the Holy Spirit Matters written by Charles Elias Mahlangu and published by Partridge Africa. This book was released on 2016-08-22 with total page 723 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Your Gift from God the Holy Spirit Matters (Book 1. This book is part of a 3 book series.) In Your Gift from God the Holy Spirit Matters, Charles takes the reader on a hunt to explore how the individual believer is granted a supernatural gift. He persuades and convinces the believer to discover his individual strategic gifting. He defines and illustrates the gifts and tackles the controversial. Charles says Ministry gifts were given to prepare the saints for the work of service and not to do the work of the ministry. He shows how Pentecostal Evangelicals, Charismatic Evangelicals and Traditional Evangelicals have been uniquely gifted and what must be discovered at the individual level according to the divine strategy of God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit. Spiritual Gifts: Welcome to the church. (Book 2) In Spiritual Gifts: Welcome to the Church, Charles defines and describes each gift. He persuades the believer to connect with individual gifting, according to the will of God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit. He urges that every believer is entrusted with a gift that can be known and used to benefit many. Spiritual gifts: Church Under Siege (Book 3) In Spiritual gifts: Church Under Siege, Charles laments over how ministry gifts which were intended to prepare saints have been woefully neglected. He argues that believers are granted abilities and leaders are needed who are willing to invest in them. He moans that those with ministry gifts of the Lord Jesus Christ have behaved as if they are not committed to training individual believers. The Black pulpit has ignored the pews in the department of gift identification and developing. He pleads with the leaders as ministers of the Lord Jesus Christ to fulfil the number one functional dynamic in this life.

Download or read book In God s Love written by Janet Hurlow and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2010-03-25 with total page 1144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Gods Love contains all 532 passages that were revealed to me. The passages of In Gods Love contain wisdom, truth, knowledge, challenges and, most importantly, love. Some of the themes of In Gods Love are God, the universe, creation, freewill, suffering, Satan, morality, Jesus, prayer, wealth, sexuality, death, hell, heaven, the messengers and their mission. This is just a little taste of what In Gods Love says about these topics. What does In Gods Love say about God? His nature is kind and gentle. Look at a flower. Turn it in your hand. How does it feel? Is it soft, velvety and rich in color? How does that fragile petal make you feel? Gods nature is like that. He is as gentle as the soft petal from the flower you are holding in your hand. He is such a delight and so much more. Your God is an awesome Being. His merriment is beyond what any creation has ever known. God shall nourish the spirit and satisfy the thirst of the soul. All else is in vain. His beauty is all beauty. His love is all love. His life is all life. Have you heard the most wonderful music on Earth? Mmm. Hold your baby with love and tenderness. Gods love is like this, only a zillion of times more intensified. This is what its all about. God loves you all. In His creation is the most wicked sinner, whom no man, in his pain, could forgive. This sinner cried out to God with a contrite and loving heart. In this cry, compassion and mercy bore his spirit up to God forever. What does In Gods Love say about the universe? Signs of life are in the Heavens beyond your sun and there is a Creator who is your God. Can these little ones God has made be all? Look at the heavens at night. Has God made all this for no reason? A God who has a reason for everything? Such wonders are very real . . . Right and strong are many worlds and many people. What does In Gods Love say about Creation? Without God, creation would not exist . . . This is the Spirit of all life. He is why things are. He chose you to be His adopted child. What a marvelous gift. Blessings of life are sent to you from God . . . He chose you because He wanted you. He wanted you to live forever and share in His gifts and mysteries of eternal life. Earth people could have roamed the Earth as senseless as the wild boar. On Earth, animals are made for mankind. This is a God who honored you and made you human instead of a wild dog that roams the forest in search of prey. What a gift. He made you human. He chose you to share in His delights forever. God made mankind and gave him/her a mind, a consciousness, a reality. God made mankind and woke His creation up. What does In Gods Love say about our freewill? Make your choice. Will you choose an eternity of happiness, or will you choose an eternity of pain? Select. Make your decision. Spirit of truth and love or spirit of deception and hate. Bitter is the cup set before the wicked. Would you drink from such a bitter chalice when the sweet wine is passed? Would you choose the bitter? This is foolish. Such is the wickedness of man. The wise choose the sweet wine which is the chalice of God and the saints. Such a blessed cup. Wise are all who drink from the chalice of the Lamb and do not pass it up. In this is wisdom. What does In Gods Love say about suffering? While you wait, much suffering is relieved by your words to God. Wisdom is sent to small ones who suffer in Earths toil. Suffering is soon gone, and then you see that sorrow is virtues child perfecting the souls of man. Is sorrow a saint in Gods Spirit? Why is she working in Gods Spirit? God doesnt want beings to suffer. Then why is this spirit in Gods plans? Suffering is not virtues reason. Virtue is inscribed in the beginning. Sorrow is not inscribed in the beginning. Sorrow wages war against mankind. In this, is it understood. She chastises while men journey on Earth. Such sorrow cleanses saints of Earth. Sorrow detests that her spirit is used in Gods plans.

Download or read book The Self Disclosure of God written by William C. Chittick and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 2015-03-26 with total page 527 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Self-Disclosure of God offers the most detailed presentation to date in any Western language of the basic teachings of Islam's greatest mystical philosopher and theologian. It represents a major step forward in making available to the Western reading public the enormous riches of Islamic teachings in the fields of cosmology, mystical philosophy, theology, and spirituality. The Self-Disclosure of God continues the author's investigations of the world view of Ibn al-ʿArabī, the greatest theoretician of Sufism and the "seal of the Muhammadan saints." The book is divided into three parts, dealing with the relation between God and the cosmos, the structure of the cosmos, and the nature of the human soul. A long introduction orients the reader and discusses a few of the difficulties faced by Ibn al-ʿArabī's interpreters. Like Chittick's earlier work, The Sufi Path of Knowledge, this book is based primarily on Ibn al-ʿArabī's monumental work, al-Futūḥāt al-Makkīyah "The Meccan Openings." More than one hundred complete chapters and subsections are translated, not to mention shorter passages that help put the longer discussions in context. There are detailed indices of sources, Koranic verses and hadiths. The book's index of technical terminology will be an indispensable reference for all those wishing to delve more deeply into the use of language in Islamic thought in general and Sufism in particular.
Download or read book Classic Teachings on the Nature of God written by R. C Sproul and published by Hendrickson Publishers. This book was released on 2010 with total page 410 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: R. C. Sproul has committed his life to clearly communicating deep, practical truths from God's Word to students and laypeople. His lucid teaching style brings clarity to the most difficult--and often contentious--biblical and theological questions. Gathered here in one volume are three of his best-selling books--over $40 worth of reading at a great low price. From Rudolf Otto's" mysterium tremendum" to Martin Luther's "insanity"and Jonathan Edwards's fiery sermons, Sproul's classic "The Holiness of God"illuminates history and Scripture to help readers understand--and live with--the tension that exists between God's terrifying holiness and his inexplicable grace. In "Chosen by God," Sproul tackles the divisive subject of predestination, and discusses God's sovereignty and the problem of evil, human freedom, and the task of evangelism. He explains that there is a mystery in God's ways but not contradiction; and paints a picture of a loving--not spiteful or whimsical--God who provides redemption for radically corrupt people."Pleasing God" explores the topic of sanctification--how we satisfy God by pursuing righteousness. Sproul examines the constant battle Christians wage against sin--pride, slothfulness, dishonesty. He reveals how many Christians have tragically abandoned the struggle, but that God delights in those who press on. Although Sproul brings a Reformed background and approach to topics, his work is not just for Calvinists but for all Christians who want to understand and build on the foundations of their faith.

Download or read book How and Why God Evolved written by Babar Shah Khan and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2015-08-13 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Focusing on some of the more unusual verses from the Bible, the Qur’an, and Gita, author Babar Shah Khan highlights certain facts about holy book verses and clarifies some misguided interpretations about these verses, and he shares his ideas on God’s evolution by comparing these spiritual texts. How and Why God Evolved highlights the link among pagan, polytheistic, and monotheistic beliefs. Khan points out misrepresentations of Holy Scriptures and discusses some of the political reasons involved. He brings to the forefront the importance of understanding how the notion of God evolved throughout history, in keeping with the human brain’s development. He also shows how God and humans have fashioned each other in an attempt to understand and reach one another. Khan exposes the textual commonalities among Holy Books and shows how modern-day religions spring from previous religions. How and Why God Evolved discusses why no one religion is truly unique or separate from others. They are all connected deeply by similar rites, rituals, and reasons; all religions share more commonalities than differences.
