Download or read book New Testament Exhortations written by Dorothy Mutanu Kagwaini PhD and published by Partridge Publishing Singapore. This book was released on 2019-07-17 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the Fourth Industrial Revolution of converging genetics, robotics, artificial intelligence, synthetic, biology, nanotechnology, and dimensional spiritual welfare, humanity will be exposed to the most fantastic – most far reaching – supernatural implications. The destiny of each individual and the future of generation will depend on knowledge of the True Being - Jesus Christ. Technology has challenged Christianity and New Testament fundamental precepts abandoned, giving birth to new form of secularized spirituality. Thus, prosperity theology has been elevated instead of theology of the counsel of God. In addition, living by faith defined in the scriptures as centered on the person of Jesus Christ and expressed in personal sacrifice and transformation, this has been changed to thrilling unorthodox theology. The faith that once delivered saints is no longer familiar, not only among the teens, but also in parents. Mankind has begun to play God; but we know God alone is Creator of life. It is for this reason that the New Testament Exhortations book will outline in chapters based on the Sovereignty of God’s love to mankind. God is the same yesterday, today and forever and that will never ever change.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Parakeets make delightful pets. We cage them or clip their wings to keep them where we want them. Scot McKnight contends that many, conservatives and liberals alike, attempt the same thing with the Bible. We all try to tame it. McKnight's The Blue Parakeet calls Christians to stop taming the Bible and to let it speak anew to our heart. McKnight challenges us to rethink how to read the Bible, not just to puzzle it together into some systematic belief but to see it as a Story that we're summoned to enter and to carry forward in our day.

Download or read book Not Yet Married written by Marshall Segal and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2017-06-20 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Life Is Never Mainly About Love and Marriage. So Learn to Live and Date for More. Many of you grew up assuming that marriage would meet all of your needs and unlock God's purposes for you. But God has far more planned for you than your future marriage. Not Yet Married is not about waiting quietly in the corner of the world for God to bring you "the one," but about inspiring you to live and date for more now. If you follow Jesus, the search for a spouse is no longer a pursuit of the perfect person, but a pursuit of more of God. He will likely write a love story for you different than the one you would write for yourself, but that's because he loves you and knows how to write a better story. This book was written to help you find real hope, happiness, and purpose in your not-yet-married life.

Book excerpt: The perfect gift! A specially priced, beautifully designed hardcover edition of The Joy of the Gospel with a foreword by Robert Barron and an afterword by James Martin, SJ. “The joy of the gospel fills the hearts and lives of all who encounter Jesus… In this Exhortation I wish to encourage the Christian faithful to embark upon a new chapter of evangelization marked by this joy, while pointing out new paths for the Church’s journey in years to come.” – Pope Francis This special edition of Pope Francis's popular message of hope explores themes that are important for believers in the 21st century. Examining the many obstacles to faith and what can be done to overcome those hurdles, he emphasizes the importance of service to God and all his creation. Advocating for “the homeless, the addicted, refugees, indigenous peoples, the elderly who are increasingly isolated and abandoned,” the Holy Father shows us how to respond to poverty and current economic challenges that affect us locally and globally. Ultimately, Pope Francis demonstrates how to develop a more personal relationship with Jesus Christ, “to recognize the traces of God’s Spirit in events great and small.” Profound in its insight, yet warm and accessible in its tone, The Joy of the Gospel is a call to action to live a life motivated by divine love and, in turn, to experience heaven on earth. Includes a foreword by Robert Barron, author of Catholicism: A Journey to the Heart of the Faith and James Martin, SJ, author of Jesus: A Pilgrimage

Book excerpt: To young Christians of the world, Pope Francis has a message for you: "Christ is alive, and he wants you to be alive!" In his fourth apostolic exhortation, Christus Vivit, Pope Francis encapsulates the work of the 2018 synod of bishops on "Young People, The Faith, and Vocational Discernment." Pope Francis has always had a special relationship with young people, and in his fatherly love for you he shows that: You can relate to young people in Scripture who made a difference You identify with the Christ who is always young You face difficult issues in the world today You yearn for the truth of the Gospel You are capable of amazing things when you respond to the Gospel You learn and grow with help from the faithful of all generations You need bold and creative youth ministry You can discover who God made you to be You are urged to pray for discernment Christus Vivit is written for and to young people, but Pope Francis also wrote it for the entire Church, because, as he says, reflecting on our young people inspires us all. "May the Holy Spirit urge you on as you run this race. The Church needs your momentum, your intuitions, your faith. We need them! And when you arrive where we have not yet reached, have the patience to wait for us."
Download or read book Why I Love the Apostle Paul written by John Piper and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2019-01-17 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Besides Jesus, no one has kept me from despair, or taken me deeper into the mysteries of the gospel, than the apostle Paul." —John Piper No one has had a greater impact on the world for eternal good than the apostle Paul—except Jesus himself. For John Piper, this impact is very personal. He does not just admire and trust Paul. He loves him. Piper gives us thirty glimpses into why his heart and mind respond this way. Can a Christian-killer really endure 195 lashes from a heart of love? Can a mystic who thinks he was caught up into heaven be a model of lucid rationality? Can an ethnocentric Jew write the most beautiful call to reconciliation? Can a person who lives with the unceasing anguish of empathy be always rejoicing? Can a man's description of the horrors of human sin be exceeded by his delight in human splendor? Can a man with a backbone of steel be as tender as a nursing mother? If we know this man—if we see what Piper sees—we too will love him. Paul's testimony is a matter of life and death. Piper invites you into his relationship with Paul in the hope that you will know life, forever.
Download or read book Quotations in the New Testament written by Crawford Howell Toy and published by . This book was released on 1884 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No proof is needed of the value of the quotations in the New Testament. It is obvious that they help us very greatly to understand the material and the character of the New Testament thought. They furnish a connecting link between the two great religious creations of the Hebrew race, Israelitism and Christianity. Old Testament and New Testament, though substantially identical in their religious conceptions, represent very different conditions of civilization and culture; they are separated from each other not only by centuries of time, but also by great social and political changes. Throughout these changes, however, the sacred volume of the nation, the Old Testament, preserved its authority as divine revelation, and supreme law of faith and life, for the Christian evangelists and apostles, as well as for the Jewish rabbis. How, then, we naturally ask, do the expounders of the new religious movement deal with the sacred books of their nation, the writings of the ancient prophets and priests and sages? What is their method of interpretation? How do they understand the instructions, exhortations, and predictions of the past? How do they fit the old order of things into the new? It is the quotations that give us answers to these questions. - Preface.
