Download or read book Jesus and the Reign of God written by Choan-Seng Song and published by Fortress Press. This book was released on 1993-01-01 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Song's theology is a startling rebuke to Christologies centered either in historical-critical searches or church doctrines. For Song, theology is the biography of God, and God's reign is evident in stories of God's saving presence in Jesus. The reign of God in Jesus "becomes manifest through movements of people to be free from the shackles of the past, to change the status quo of the present, and to have a role to play in the arrival of the future".

Download or read book State of the Kingdom Address written by and published by G.O.D Publishing. This book was released on 2017-12-13 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every year since 1790 (during the presidency of George Washington), the President of the United States has given an annual speech to the nation. That speech is known as The State of the Union Address. In it, he discusses the greatest problems of the nation as well as a plan to overcome them. The president’s speech is one that unifies the nation and encourages citizens to work together to improve the country, as one people, regardless of party association or general beliefs and convictions. The one thing that can arguably be agreed upon by most people is that everybody wants to live in a better country and benefit from the liberties, life, and opportunity that the United States has to offer. This is a noble cause, and makes the State of the Union Address more than simply a speech. It is a bond that brings people together under the red, white, and blue. Accordingly, millions of people tune in each year around the last week of January to watch the State of the Union live on television on all the major networks. Undoubtedly, the State of the Union is an important event. The fact that the speech is an annual tradition of one of the most powerful nations in the world stresses the importance of it. Countries all around the world are affected by the legislative agenda of the U.S., as discussed in the speech, regarding economies, human rights, defense, human aid, global business, trade, environmental issues, world health, and more. Given the value placed on the State of the Union, one should reasonably conclude that a state of the world address is in order. After all, doesn’t SOTU, generally speaking, focus mostly on the well-being of the United States? Of course it does. Now, what seems more appropriate is to have a general address concerning the physical, but even moreso, the spiritual state of every nation in the world. That’s to say that spiritual life reigns supreme, and every nation is under God, both in spirit and in flesh. God’s Kingdom Government rules all other kingdoms. And that is the premise behind the State of the Kingdom Address (SOKA). SOKA is a parody of SOTU. In a sense, it is intended to awaken governments and people worldwide. The LORD not only wants to show His authority and authorship on earth as the Almighty, but He desires to (1) build up the Body of Christ (2) usher in the end-time revival, and (3) bring the people back to Him. The book is intended to show people that we have gotten away from the big picture. People have become so focused on the small insignificant things in life, like ‘The State of the Union’ (as important as it is), yet have lost track of the things which matter most—God and His Kingdom. Without question, most people would likely agree that God’s Kingdom is the most powerful, important government in the world. Through SOKA, the world will see that the state of a country pales in comparison to the state or condition of God’s Kingdom, namely, the Church. That inevitable day of Jesus Christ coming back to earth is approaching. And the world has to prepare for it, in the midst of going about our daily lives. Are you ready for the ride of your life? Enter, Chapter One: Behold, I Come Quickly... ...if you dare..
Download or read book From the Kippah to the Cross written by Jean-Marie Elie Setbon and published by Ignatius Press. This book was released on 2015-02-23 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jean-Marie Élie Setbon, the son of non-observant French Jews, was first attracted to Jesus when he saw a crucifix at a young age. He hid a crucifix in his room and contemplated it often, even though he knew his family would be hurt and angry if they ever caught him. Seeing the Basilica of Sacré-Coeur from his apartment window, he was drawn to the church, where he found himself powerfully pulled toward Jesus in the Eucharist. After several years of surreptitiously attending Mass, he resolved to convert to Catholicism in spite of the scandal it would cause, but God had other plans. Upon graduation from secondary school, Jean-Marie moved to Israel to delve deeper into the faith of his ancestors. He lived in kibbutzim, learned about the history and religion of his people, served in the Israeli Army, and attended two different rabbinical schools. Eight years later he returned to France as an ultra-Orthodox Jew. While teaching in a Jewish school, Jean-Marie married a woman who shared his faith, and together they began raising a family; yet his yearning for Jesus remained, becoming the source of a long and difficult internal struggle. Jean-Marieಙs moving and unusual conversion story is about his battle between loyalty to his identity and fidelity to the deepest desires of his heart. Above all, it is a love story between Christ, the Lover the relentless yet patient pursuer and man, his beloved.

Download or read book Death and the Maidens written by Janet Todd and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2013-09-19 with total page 343 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 1816 was the fateful year when the Romantic poet Shelley and his lover Mary shared a hectic creative and sexual menage in Switzerland with Lord Byron. This intense period drew from the men some of the greatest poetry of the age; from Mary, it elicited the seminal figures of Frankenstein and his Creature. But for other women close to Shelley it was a time of tragedy. At the heart of the story are Fanny Wollstonecraft and Harriet Westbrook, women whose lives were literally overwhelmed by him – and who both committed suicide before the year was out. "Not only a splendid work of feminist history, this is an important addition to late 18th- and early 19-century literary criticism." - Publishers Weekly (starred review)
