Based on a very popular college course he teaches on this subject, this book responds to the incredible amount of interest in angelic beings and attempts to clear up some of the misinformation abounding in the numerous books today on what we know about these mysterious spirits.

In his typical lucid, profound and sometimes humorous style, Kreeft answers such questions as ""What are angels made of?"", ""How do angels communicate with God?"", ""How do angels communicate with us?"", ""Do demons, or devils, or evil spirits really exist?"" and many more.

Download or read book Demons written by Michael S. Heiser and published by Lexham Press. This book was released on 2020-04-29 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The truth about demons is far stranger—and even more fascinating—than what's commonly believed. Are demons real? Are they red creatures with goatees holding pitchforks and sitting on people's shoulders while whispering bad things? Did a third of the angels really rebel with Satan? Are demons and "principalities and powers" just terms for the same entities, or are they different members of the kingdom of darkness? Is the world a chaotic mess because of what happened in Eden, or is there more to the story of evil? What people believed about evil spiritual forces in ancient biblical times is often very different than what people have been led to believe about them today. And this ancient worldview is missing from most attempts to treat the topic. In Demons, Michael Heiser debunks popular presuppositions about the very real powers of darkness. Rather than traditions, stories, speculations, or myths, Demons is grounded in what ancient people of both the Old and New Testament eras believed about evil spiritual forces and in what the Bible actually says. You'll come away with a sound, biblical understanding of demons, supernatural rebellion, evil spirits, and spiritual warfare.

Download or read book Antonio Triana and the Spanish Dance written by Rita Vega de Triana and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-02-04 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book also traces the evolution of the Spanish Dance technique, marked as it is by a turbulent history. Antonio Triana was a dancer of mature artistry, dignity and power. His physical and technical achievements went beyond what is generally known about Spanish Dance. His dance presented the essence of the Spanish character and, in his choreography, he used his traditional background for his brilliant inspirations. He partnered the legendary La Argentinita, Pilar Lopez and Carmen Amaya with spirit and gallantry. Over the years he developed a very distinct method of teaching and he became one of the foremost Spanish Flamenco dancers and teachers of his time. Rita Vega de Triana formed the Triana Ballet Español with her late husband. She currently teaches Hispanic dance and related subjects at the University of Texas at El Paso and directs her own school as well as performing around the United States as a guest artist and choreographer.
Download or read book The Powers of Evil written by José Mário Santos Da Costa and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2021-06-27 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book we will discuss the origin of evil spirits, how they are divided their classes. The traditional church calls all spirits demons and devils, but this is not the right language. To affirm this thesis, we must go to biblical and extrabiblical content to know the classes of spirits that have molested humanity since the beginning of time, let us talk here about the primary source, the fallen angels, right after the evil spirits, and demons or devils with their classifications and performances. No fallen angel is a demon, no demon has ever been a n. n. Let us talk about the fallen angels, who are usually the principalities and spiritual powers of this fallen world, the evil spirits who are obsessives, and the demons or devils, who usually feed on the vital energy of humans. These are themes that the reader needs to have an open mind because it will mess with beliefs rooted in centuries in the Christian environment.

Download or read book Angels Demons and the Devil written by F. Lagard Smith and published by Cotswold Publishing. This book was released on 2013-12 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Angels, demons, and the devil have fascinated humankind from the dawn of time. Contemporary interest in angels is especially keen, as best seen in the mass-marketing of angel books and angel art. The world is awash with wings! But is this romantic view of angels a biblically accurate depiction of these heavenly creatures? What can we know about the angels? How, if at all, do they touch our lives? Despite a bizarre mixture of comedic references to a red-suited bogeyman and, by contrast, frightening images of a cunning Satan relentlessly tempting each of us to do evil, far less serious attention has been paid to demons and the devil. Most likely it's because the pertinent scriptures are not always easy to discern. Just when we think we have demons safely within a well-defined box, suddenly they come swooping at us from another direction. Just when we think everything about the devil is well within our grasp, suddenly that fiendish figure becomes far more elusive. This challenging biblical landscape explains the unusual format of presenting what the Bible has to say about these intriguing celestial beings as if you, the reader, were having a one-on-one conversation with Michael the archangel. If anyone should know everything there is to know about the subject, surely it would be Michael!

Download or read book The Ancient Dancer in the Modern World written by Fiona Macintosh and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2012-07-05 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When the eighteenth-century choreographer Jean-Georges Noverre sought to develop what is now known as modern ballet, he turned to ancient pantomime as his source of inspiration; and when Isadora Duncan and her contemporaries looked for alternatives to the strictures of classical ballet, they looked to ancient Greek vases for models for what they termed 'natural' movement. This is the first book to examine systematically the long history of the impact of ideas about ancient Greek and Roman dance on modern theatrical and choreographic practices. With contributions from eminent classical scholars, dance historians, theatre specialists, modern literary critics, and art historians, as well as from contemporary practitioners, it offers a very wide conspectus on an under-explored but central aspect of classical reception, dance and theatre history, and the history of ideas.
