Excerpt: ...and bring it into subjection, lest that by some means, after preaching to others, he himself should be a castaway?' The cry 'even of the regenerate' must be for resurrection, for the transfiguration and spiritualization of the body. There are times--they come, I suppose, to all of us--when the cry of the text becomes an agony and a death-struggle. St Paul felt his body a snare to him. Much as he lived in heaven, it was by an effort and a self-crucifixion. We naturally suppose that in his case it was chiefly the enfeeblement that was the stumblingblock. We picture him to ourselves as a man of feeble strength and many infirmities--consumed by a fire of zeal which burned up the very energies of the frame. I doubt whether even this will fully account for his language, here and elsewhere, concerning his body. Men of intense sympathy, of glowing affection, have trials all their own in consequence of it. St Paul's mistrust, St Paul's dread, St Paul's abhorrence, I had almost said, of the body, points possibly to trials and temptations very definite, and in which he may have been more one with us than we imagine. His desire for resurrection was a passion. 'If by any means I may attain to the resurrection of the dead.' To anticipate and antedate the resurrection--to live now as having died and risen--is St Paul's mystery of Christian living. We love him for the words, and for the thoughts which breathe in them. We feel as he felt--might we but aspire like him and after him! It is easy to talk of Christian progress. It is easy to paint the advance, and the progress, and the saintly life, and the foretaste of heaven. But, after all, where is the best of us, really, on his way? Is there one in all this audience, who is always, who is permanently, ..

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jesus’ final days were full of risk. Every move he made was filled with anticipation, danger, and the potential for great loss or great reward. Jesus risked his reputation when he entered Jerusalem in a victory parade. He risked his life when he dared to teach in the Temple. His followers risked everything when they left behind their homes, or anointed him with costly perfume. We take risks as we read and re-read these stories, finding new meanings and new challenges. In Entering the Passion of Jesus: A Beginner’s Guide to Holy Week, author, professor, and biblical scholar Amy-Jill Levine explores the biblical texts surrounding the Passion story. She shows us how the text raises ethical and spiritual questions for the reader, and how we all face risk in our Christian experience. Entering the Passion of Jesus provides a rich and challenging learning experience for small groups and individual readers alike. The book is part of a larger six-week study that is perfect for Lent and includes a DVD, and a comprehensive Leader Guide. The book’s six chapters include: Jerusalem: Risking Reputation The Temple: Risking Righteous Anger Teachings: Risking Challenge The First Dinner: Risking Rejection The Last Supper: Risking the Loss of Friends Gethsemane: Risking Temptation

Download or read book The Passion of the Servant written by Don N. Howell and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2009-01-26 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The New Testament opens with four Gospel accounts that introduce the reader to Jesus Christ. From the very beginning, the redemptive drama moves toward the cross. The final week of Jesus's life, Passion Week, takes up nearly 40 percent of the entire narrative. The canonical Gospels provide four different perspectives on the life of Jesus. He is portrayed in this fourfold account as King and covenant keeper (Matthew), as obedient Son-servant (Mark), as the perfect Man among men (Luke), and as the eternal Son of God (John), the only person ever born whose central purpose in living is to die. The Gospels are Passion narratives with extended introductions. This is the governing principle of the present work as Jesus moves toward the culmination of his saving mission. From early adumbrations to deepening shadows to direct predictions and finally to the detailed narratives of Passion Week, the Gospels follow the Lord's inexorable journey to the cross. This synthetic study, which follows the life of Jesus in a chronological sequence while attempting to preserve the unique contribution of each of the four Gospel accounts, draws upon the long-established tradition of harmonies of the Gospels, dating back to Tatian's Diatessaron (AD 170). The ordering of the data follows, with minor rearrangements, The NIV Harmony of the Gospels edited by Robert L. Thomas and Stanley N. Gundry. In The Passion of the Servant, eighteen chapters with thirteen maps trace the geographical context of Jesus's ministry. Biblical quotations are taken from the English Standard Version (ESV) except where otherwise noted. The chronology adopted in this work, one that assumes a spring AD 30 date for the crucifixion, is appended, along with a brief bibliography of works that have been particularly helpful to the author. The front cover is a portrait of the risen Lord instructing the two disciples near Emmaus that the events surrounding his death and resurrection fulfilled the sacred prophecies of the Old Testament (Luke 24:25-27).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lessons of the Cross and Passion; Six Lectures: Delivered in Hereford Cathedral During the Week Before Easter, 1869 The first sound of the words is reposeful and comforting. I will lay me down in peace, and take my rest - so He giveth His beloved sleep - yea, thou shalt lie down, and thy sleep shall be sweet - Lord, if he sleep, he shall do well - these are the ideas connected, even in the Bible, with that natural repose, that taking of rest in sleep, which almost divides with work itself this lifetime of responsible being. But when we look below the surface, when we remember the time and the place and the circumstances, when we think of the Speaker of the words and of the persons spoken to, we shall perceive that the command - for such it seems to be - Sleep on and take your rest, had a widely different meaning from that which its sound would convey.
