Download or read book Golden Drops of Comfort written by James A. Rousseau Jr. and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2019-01-31 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An invasion of supernatural “other worldly” beings has exploded into this world with one purpose in mind. They have come to be used by God, Jesus Christ, to be a blessing to the inhabitants of a world that seems to be bent on bringing about its own destruction. They are so consumed and filled to overflowing with golden drops of the comfort of who they are that they are willing to sacrifice their own lives out of a love for us in order that we may see the love that Jesus Christ has for us. The question is, do we have eyes to see these “other worldly” beings who are all around us everyday? Maybe if we will look through the eye-gate of our heart we may see them more clearly. There is enduring “Kindness” looking for ways to pour out the golden drops of comfort of who she is upon us to help us in our time of need. There is the unending stamina of beautiful “Joy” bringing the golden drops of who she is and pouring this joy upon us in our time of need. Then we find the strength of “Gentleness” sharing her gentle touch of love upon a cold, hard, and cruel world. As these “other worldly” beings shower their golden drops of comfort upon us how will we receive them? Will we embrace them and allow them to introduce us to Jesus Christ, or will we seek to crucify them and have nothing to do with them? The choice is ours!

Download or read book The Enchanting Adventures of Christian Nature written by James A. Rousseau Jr. and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2018-01-03 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Imagine living in a God-created heart in the world of your imagination. Imagine living in a world where the Holy Spirit, seen allegorically in the person of the beautiful patience of Christian Nature, lovingly and tenderly seeks to fill every nook and cranny of your heart with the beauty that only the Holy Spirit through Christian Nature can provide. Imagine living in a world where each citizen, like a cherished and highly valued goblet, is filled to overflowing with enchanted golden drops of comfort to freely pour upon everyone whom their lives may touch. Imagine living in a world where each citizen places their cup filled with goodness to the parched, dry lips of the weary traveler who has not tasted the refreshing drops of kindness for a long time and, in so doing, restoring life to that previously hardened person who was on the verge of losing his life to a thirst for goodness in a hardened world. Is this the kind of world in which you would like to live? Sounds nice, you may say. But this is not real life! The purpose of this literary endeavor, the reason for this story, is to reveal to each reader that this world is real. It really does exist! It exists in our own God-created heart; and the Holy Spirit, who has filled it with the beauty of Christian Nature, lovingly invites you to live here as a cherished citizen for all the days of the enchanted adventure of your life!

Download or read book The Purity of Generosity written by James A. Rousseau Jr. and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2020-10-09 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If we are looking for a reason to prove why we exist, if we are looking for a real purpose in our lives, maybe we should ask God to, “Please, use us in some way to be of a help to those in need.” Could it be that, as people lift their discouraged voices to God to send someone to help them, that God is hearing their prayers, answering them, and sending you, to be used by God to meet their financial needs? We each have a purpose in life. This could be yours! Many Christians really do want their lives to bring glory to God before they depart this world and go to heaven. They are very grateful for all that God has given to them. They want their very short journey in this world to count for God, to glorify God, and be of benefit to others. The words of missionary Jim Elliott rings loud and true in their hearts when he said, “He is no fool to give what he cannot keep in order to gain what he cannot lose.” Their daily prayer to God is that He would use their lives, in some way, to bring glory to Himself and benefit to those in great need. Maybe their banner verse comes from Matthew 5:16 which says, “Let your light so shine before men that they may see your good works and glorify your father in heaven.” If this is the sort of person you would like to be, then this story is about you. It’s about everyone who really, truly, deep in their hearts, want to be used by God to help others in their time of need.

Download or read book Reformation Divided written by Eamon Duffy and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2017-02-23 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Published to mark the 500th anniversary of the events of 1517, Reformation Divided explores the impact in England of the cataclysmic transformations of European Christianity in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. The religious revolution initiated by Martin Luther is usually referred to as 'The Reformation', a tendentious description implying that the shattering of the medieval religious foundations of Europe was a single process, in which a defective form of Christianity was replaced by one that was unequivocally benign, 'the midwife of the modern world'. The book challenges these assumptions by tracing the ways in which the project of reforming Christendom from within, initiated by Christian 'humanists' like Erasmus and Thomas More, broke apart into conflicting and often murderous energies and ideologies, dividing not only Catholic from Protestant, but creating deep internal rifts within all the churches which emerged from Europe's religious conflicts. The book is in three parts: In 'Thomas More and Heresy', Duffy examines how and why England's greatest humanist apparently abandoned the tolerant humanism of his youthful masterpiece Utopia, and became the bitterest opponent of the early Protestant movement. 'Counter-Reformation England' explores the ways in which post-Reformation English Catholics accommodated themselves to a complex new identity as persecuted religious dissidents within their own country, but in a European context, active participants in the global renewal of the Catholic Church. The book's final section 'The Godly and the Conversion of England' considers the ideals and difficulties of radical reformers attempting to transform the conventional Protestantism of post-Reformation England into something more ardent and committed. In addressing these subjects, Duffy shines new light on the fratricidal ideological conflicts which lasted for more than a century, and whose legacy continues to shape the modern world.
