Download or read book Lethal Dose Of Salvation written by James Daniel Quinn and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2022-08-01 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lethal Dose of Salvation is about Oscar Ireland, a cathedral groundskeeper, who, while in church praying, is shot in the head. By the time his wife arrives at the hospital, she is horrified to discover that the love of her life is in a coma. Within his comatose state, Oscar awakens in a garden. Up ahead he sees one of the many mansions in heaven. Befuddled, confused, he enters the seven-story building. After mingling on the first floor with the regular dead, he meets Daniel, his guardian angel. Oscar decides to move onward and upward to the second floor that houses the Prayer Chamber. Soon he moves up to the third floor where the members of the Historical Committee conduct their business. Since he is not yet physically dead, those he encounters cannot see him, which adds to his frustration. On the fourth floor is the Artistic Committee; fifth floor, Biblical Committee. Thanks to his guardian angel and the information he acquires from visiting the various offices, he discovers he is in the building where the committee members must decide who among the living are worthy of receiving inspiration. The sixth floor contains the Administration Committee. They correlate all the information gathered from the floors below. Enclosed on the seventh floor are the sacred offices of the Holy Trinity. While his soul is pulling him upward to see God, his heart tries to keep him tethered to his grieving wife back on earth. Oscar's personal struggle is between the promise of wisdom and the power of love. It is a realistic look at an inconceivable concept: how inspiration is transmitted from God to man, and one man's quest to see God while still alive. Mystical and surreal, yet it never loses its human perspective. Perhaps the most dramatic aspect of salvation is the unbreakable bond between a man and a woman.

Download or read book Devil s Lethal Dose written by Rev. Lukas Utete and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2012-11-27 with total page 65 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is written to emphasize the fact that Salvation is through the finished work of the cross of Jesus Christ. That there is only one God who is almighty and eternal who revealed himself through the person of Jesus Christ. It looks at the various ways the devil is deceiving people into believing that there are many ways of reaching God. It tries to highlight the danger that is in taking false teaching because any other means of worship apart from through Jesus Christ does not lead to the one true God but to a god which is devil worship. It touches on the Fall of man, that man was created being allergic to sin. The writer then touches in brief how Jesus Christ touched him. Then the great deception is revealed through the Bible and proof is given why Bible must be believed as the holy true infallible word of God. The writer then looks at the purpose of Mosaic Law and why it was not intended to impart salvation. Also that one cannot choose a part of the Mosaic Law like keeping of the Sabbath without taking the whole law. Book then explains who Jesus Christ is the Holy Spirit and God the father and explains what is meant by the Finished work of the cross. Unless stated most quotations are from King James Version.

Book excerpt: This study of Dylan's mission-driven music reveals a functional approach to art that not only sustained his 60-year career but forever changed an art form. The second edition of Writing Dylan: The Songs of a Lonesome Traveler examines Nobel Laureate Bob Dylan's historic career, yielding unique insights into a distinctively American artist's creative world. The book opens with a short biography and description of Dylan's artistic method before diving into the seven missions of his life's work.

Since the release of the first edition in 2005, the laureate has produced three albums of original material as well as three widely praised albums of American standards. Columbia Records has issued multiple boxed sets chronicling specific periods of Dylan's career, and several films have been made about him. Dylan himself has also given numerous speeches and interviews, often while accepting prestigious awards. This second edition not only features these new materials but draws on them to recast the first edition, presenting Dylan's music as an indelible art form.

Download or read book Tangled Up in the Bible written by Michael J. Gilmour and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2004-02-01 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bob Dylan has had a profound influence on the shape of modern pop music (folk, rock, blues) and as a modern literary figure. He has also attracted enormous attention from both professional and amateur "interpreters". In this book Gilmour offers a thorough study of Dylan's reading of scriptures. He explores the ways in which Dylan transforms biblical images and concepts when he incorporates them into his literary world; it is an attempt to listen to the echoes of scripture in his published works. Gilmour closely reads Dylan's poems and songs and provides commentaries on several themes found in Dylan's work: the Sermon on the Mount and Jesus; apocalypse, justice and judgement; oppressive religion and religious irony. Through these readings, Gilmour calls attention to the various ways Dylan uses scripture both in an explicit and an implicit manner.

Download or read book Voice Without Restraint written by John Herdman and published by Leamington Books. This book was released on 2021-06-18 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bob Dylan was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in June 2016, and seldom in recent years has it been more richly deserved. That a song writer's lyrics should be regarded as literature was an idea at which many were surprised. Others have felt that to isolate the lyrics of a song from its musical context is unreal. Ultimately that is true: a song is an indefeasible whole, an inseparable marriage of words and music which achieves its overall emotional effect by that symbiosis and not otherwise. Yet it can also be said that the two components can be separately considered as two elements in the artist's creative utterance, and discussed as such. The evidence of Dylan's manuscripts supports the view that in writing his lyrics his way of going about things is not always widely different from that of a poet. Bob Dylan commented on the Nobel Prize in Literature which was awarded to him "for having created new poetic expressions within the great American song tradition": "When I first received this Nobel Prize for Literature, I got to wondering exactly how my songs related to literature. I wanted to reflect on it and see where the connection was." Voice Without Restraint, refers to and is from the song "I dreamed I saw St Augustine" on John Wesley Harding, and is a phrase chosen to evoke the full-blooded commitment to his artistic utterance which is the hallmark of Bob Dylan's voice – in all senses.

Download or read book The Father s Guide to the Meaning of Life written by Joe Kita and published by Joseph Kita. This book was released on 2008-06-02 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Joe Kita reveals the life lessons that can be learned from being a dad—powerful lessons that apply to all of us, no matter what stage of life we are in. Kita focuses on 15 essential truths about friendship, trust, wonder, play, even death—truths that otherwise would have remained secret to him if not for his kids. In a manly voice that is both wickedly funny and startlingly honest, Kita talks of the essential traits of a good dad and how he has grown, both emotionally and intellectually, as a result of the challenges his kids have presented. Further, he talks about the transcendent moments, as when he said goodbye to his father for the last time, that change us most deeply. "Most parents look at raising children as a top-down promise," Kita writes. "The father, the mother, the schools, the son, the daughter. And the product, after many years of shaping, is a polished young adult. But suppose we turn this process upside-down? Suppose we decide to let this baby girl or boy, this already perfect being, raise us? As we help them grow up, so they will help us mature. As we teach them the rules of life, so they will show us its deeper meaning."

Download or read book Deadly Doctrine written by Wendell Watters and published by Prometheus Books. This book was released on 1992-12 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Christian religion presents itself as the way to contentment, spiritual health, and salvation. But is this really true? Dr. Wendell Watters offers a powerful argument, based on his many years of clinical experience with individuals, couples, and families, that Christianity's influence actually militates against human development in such vital areas as self-esteem, sexuality, and social interactions. The tragic end result of Christian conditioning is too often antisocial behavior, sexual dysfunction, poor psychological development, anxiety, and even major psychiatric illness. Christian indoctrination is not simply a problem affecting individuals or single families; the noxious effects of its teachings over nearly two millennia pervade society at large, even those who are not Christians, and in ways that seriously undermine human welfare and the quality of life. Christianity's aggressive pronatalist policies have encouraged large families, despite parents' inability to cope either emotionally or financially. With this the Christian church has formulated rigid sexual roles, forbidding all practices not leading directly to conception. By actually promoting sexual ignorance and irresponsibility, Christianity has allowed the proliferation of such social ills as rape, child molestation, and pornography. In the face of so much human suffering resulting from Christian doctrine, it is imperative that health care professionals, recognizing the Christian belief system as an addictive disease, develop a religious status examination to help evaluate how notions about life derived from Christian god-talk compromise individuals' healthy functioning. In failing to determine the role of oppressive religious beliefs in mental illness, physicians and other health care workers actually promote Christianity's continued stranglehold on human happiness and self-fulfillment.
