Download or read book Of Wings and Wheels written by Alice Wood and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2008-11-03 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study examines the physical form and cultic function of the biblical cherubim. Previous studies of the cherubim have placed too great an emphasis on archaeological and etymological data. This monograph presents a new synthetic study, which prioritises the evidence supplied by the biblical texts. Biblical exegesis, using literary and historical-critical methods, forms the large part of the investigation (Part I). The findings arising from the exegetical discussion provide the basis upon which comparison with etymological and archaeological data is made (Parts II and III). The results suggest that traditions envisaging the cherubim as tutelary winged quadrupeds, with one head and one set of wings, were supplanted by traditions that conceived of them as more enigmatic, obeisant beings. In the portrayal of the cherubim in Ezekiel and Chronicles, we can detect signs of a conceptual shift that prefigures the description of the cherubim in post-biblical texts, such as The Songs of the Sabbath Sacrifice and the Enochic texts.

Book excerpt: While in Mexico on vacation with her ailing husband, Larry, Debi Cartwright receives what seems to be an ordinary seed from a poor fisherman named Antonio, along with strict instructions to plant the seed and share its offspring with those in need. Not fully understanding why, Debi complies and plants the seed, giving one to Larry when seeds finally sprout. Larry is miraculously cured and knows he must now share the seed with others. Enter a nameless rich man in need of a miracle himself, who will stop at nothing, including kidnapping and murder, to gain the elusive seed whose healing powers he desires. Because Antonio possesses the seed, he is a prime target. When Antonio goes missing, his son Javier befriends a man named Miguel, whom the nameless rich man hired to kill Antonio. But after learning from Javier about the selfless life Antonio lived, Miguel is racked with guilt and experiences a change of heart, which prompts him to turn himself in to the authorities. He then goes on to share the Word from his prison cell, inspiring countless others with his seeds of hope. Larry Herndon's The Seed tells the story of a healing seed that represents the redemptive power of Jesus Christ. Travel back over two thousand years with Larry and Debi to find the origin of The Seed that heals us all.

Download or read book Life in Christ written by William Robert West and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2015-09-29 with total page 705 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What do you believe about souls? There are many very different doctrines taught in the world today concerning souls that are believed to be in all humans. By most a soul is believed to be something that is wholly apart from the person a soul is in; that a soul is something that is that is believed to be complete in its self without the person; it will live after the person it is in is dead; it is believed that a soul will exist forever without the person; it will never be dead; therefore, a soul cannot be resurrected from the dead. It is believed that a soul must live someplace forever, and it will live either in Heaven or Hell even if there is no resurrection. The doctrine of unconditional immortality of a deathless soul being in a person, and that soul leaving that person at the death of the person makes it impossible for Christ to have give His life to save that soul from death; if a soul had immortality it would already have life and could never not have life; all Christ could do is give it a reward or punish it.

Download or read book Imagining Mary written by Daniel Rancour-Laferriere and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-11-15 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Imagining Mary breaks new ground in the long tradition of Christian mariology. The book is an interdisciplinary investigation of some of the many Marys, East and West, from the New Testament Mary of Nazareth down to Our Lady of the Good Death in the twentieth century. In Imagining Mary, Professor Rancour-Laferriere examines the mother of God in her multireligious and pan-historical context. The book is a scholarly study, but it is written in a clear, straightforward style and will be comprehensible to an educated – and, above all, intellectually curious – general audience. It will appeal to anyone who has ever wondered, for example, about the flimsy scriptural basis of many beliefs about Mary; or the tendency of many mariologists to depict Mary as an incestuous "bride of Christ"; or the theological notion of Mary’s "loving consent" to her son’s crucifixion; or the idea that Mary was a "priest" officiating at the sacrifice of her son; or the unfortunate association of Mary with Christian anti-semitism; or the curious appeal of Mary to the terminally ill; and so on. Special attention is given to the psychology of representations of Mary, such as: the psychological basis for promoting Mary to the status of a "goddess"; the psychology of Mary’s compassion for her son at the foot of the cross; and the psychological conflict in Mary’s personal relationship with her son Jesus. These topics are admittedly diverse, but they all have long been on the minds of mariologists. The author takes a questioning approach to received wisdom about marian themes – including the assumption that one has to be a theist in order to understand the great appeal of Mary down the centuries. Indeed, Imagining Mary may be regarded as a first step in the direction of an atheist mariology.

Download or read book Springtime for the Soul written by Mel Shoemaker and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2016-09-27 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lent has the historic, root meaning of spring, springtime, and the lengthening of the days. In the days of winter, there is a longing for spring, a longing for the lengthening of days, more sunshine, warmer temperatures, less frost and bone-chilling cold. Lent is the season of springtime for the soul. That certainly is a positive twist on Lent. Commonly, the first thought that comes to mind is a season of penitence and fasting from Ash Wednesday to Easter. Too frequently, the somber aspect of abstinence, self-discipline, reflection, and introspection has so dominated our observance of Lent that we want Mardi Gras to never end. Springtime for the Soul: A Lenten Devotional is a series of readings and meditations composed for ChristiansGods holy ones, saintswho are on a quest to grow and gain a greater understanding of our faith. It is my purpose and hope that you will find the daily readings and the meditations refreshing and encouraging, cultivating the crusty winter soil of the heart and germinating new thoughts concerning the essentials of our living faith.
