Book The Future Inheritance of Land in the Pauline Epistles

Download or read book The Future Inheritance of Land in the Pauline Epistles written by Miguel G. Echevarria and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2019-01-25 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Apostle Paul’s vision of eternity is centered on the inheritance theme. Although Paul rarely unpacks this concept, he employs the inheritance in a manner that encompasses the hope of a renewed cosmos promised to Abraham and his descendants. Thus, the apostle does not redefine a theme grounded in the Old Testament and Second Temple literature—as if it now referred to heaven or some other spiritualized existence. He expects what every pious Jew expected—the tangible fulfillment of the promise, when at last God’s people will dwell in a land where they will experience rest under the rule of Messiah. What Paul clarifies is that those who are “in Christ” are the beneficiaries of the inheritance. Although believers do not currently possess what has been promised to them, they have the hope that the Spirit will lead them on a new exodus through the wilderness of the present sinful age until they inherit the coming world.

Book Woman  A Spiritual Son of God

Download or read book Woman A Spiritual Son of God written by Candace D. Keller and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2024-03-10 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout centuries, the identity of a woman has suffered because she has not been taught to understand the truth about her created identity and her potential for overcoming deception. The Bible contains scriptures that hold the key to unlocking the ordained path that will lead to a woman’s personal fulfillment as well as her destiny by knowing God through intimate fellowship with Him. It is a message that is powerful, liberating, and life-changing. In a thought-provoking exploration of this fascinating topic, Candace Keller, a certified lay speaker with the United Methodist Church, details how scripture defines a woman. It addresses how and why the first woman was named Eve, scrutinizes the consequence of mankind’s fall that impacted the identity of all women that existed after her. It examines how the current condition of the woman differs from the original intent and design of God and what that means to each individual woman today. Woman: A Spiritual Son of God provides a detailed analysis of the Bible’s definition of a woman and how she has learned to discover her identity through embracing His unconditional love.

Book Rebel Women

    Book Details:
  • Author : Stephen Wilmer
  • Publisher : A&C Black
  • Release : 2014-07-04
  • ISBN : 1408150174
  • Pages : 372 pages

Download or read book Rebel Women written by Stephen Wilmer and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2014-07-04 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A collection of essays by many distinguished contributors, focused on the portrayal of rebel women in ancient Greek drama. Ancient Greek drama provides the modern stage with a host of powerful female characters who stand in opposition to the patriarchal structures that seek to limit and define them. For contemporary theatre directors their representation serves as a vehicle for examining and illuminating issues of gender, power, family and morality, as germane today as when the plays were first written. Rebel Women brings together essays by leading writers from across different disciplines examining the representation of ancient Greek heroines in their original contexts and on today's stage. Divided into three sections, it considers in turn international productions, Irish versions, and studies of the original texts. The articles explore how such characters as Iphigenia, Medea, Antigone and Clytemnestra have been portrayed in recent times and the challenges and provocation they offer to both contemporary audiences and dramatists alike. 'Seamus Heaney and Athol Fugard are brought together as contributors by the inspiration that ancient Greek tragedy has offered to them both. There are offerings here on Iphigenia, edea, Antigone, Clytemnestra, film, drama, Greece, Russia ... and especially Ireland. Amidst all this variety, the level of interest and of scholarship are consistently high.' Oliver Taplin, Professor of Classical Languages and Literature, Oxford University

Book Peter s Epistles   Letters to the Scattered Saints

Download or read book Peter s Epistles Letters to the Scattered Saints written by John Hill and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2019-02-05 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It had been several years since Peter had delivered God's message at Pentecost. The audience had come from all over the world. There was nothing novel in the message ? it consisted of things any good Jewish person would have known from their childhood. The difference was that this message was accompanied by the power of God's Spirit. After our Lord's ascension into heaven (Acts 1.11), Peter labored for his Savior tirelessly to the point of death. He understood well the urgency of the times and he desired to pass that along to as many believers as possible. These two epistles show Peter's efforts in stirring up those who had been stirred up at Pentecost ? at the birth of the Body of Christ.

Download or read book The End of the Law written by Jason C. Meyer and published by B&H Publishing Group. This book was released on 2009-09-01 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Commonly understood as the first theologian of the Christian faith, Paul set forth the categories by which we describe our relationship with Christ. Did he understand the new covenant Jesus announced at the Last Supper primarily as a replacement of the old Mosaic covenant God made with Israel, or as a renewal and completion of the old? Jason Meyer surveys the various differences that have been argued between the two covenants in The End of the Law, carefully and inductively perfoming a semantic, grammatical, and contextual analysis of all the Pauline texts dealing with covenant concepts. Book seven of the New American Commentary Studies in Bible & Theology series, an extension of the long-respected New American Commentary.
