Book Prominent Peaks of the Pilgrimage  Book Two

Download or read book Prominent Peaks of the Pilgrimage Book Two written by Pilgrim Preacher and published by Pilgrim Preacher. This book was released on 2023-12-17 with total page 99 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This series is entitled: Prominent Peaks of the Pilgrimage. Divided into two books, this twenty-lesson course traces the journey of the people of Israel, from out of the land of Egypt, into the land of Canaan. We will visit the people of Israel at the prominent peaks of their pilgrimage. Our main texts will come from the bible books of Exodus, Numbers, Deuteronomy, and Joshua. We shall see that the events that befell the children of Israel at the mountain sites are the very things that we have to expect on our pilgrimage. The lessons that the people of Israel had to learn are the very same lessons that our loving Lord would have us learn also. So, it behooves us to take a close look at the Lord's people and their pilgrimage, so that we can be better fit for our pilgrimage, for there are many pitfalls, dangers, and perils. Another major purpose of this course is to look at different aspects of the doctrine of salvation. Every keyword in this course brings out a new revelation concerning biblical salvation. Biblical salvation covers more than just the regeneration of the human spirit. Many struggles in the lives of Christians can be traced to unfamiliarity with the doctrine of salvation. If we do not see all that the Lord has done in salvation, then we will have unnecessary struggles. The doctrine of salvation permeates this entire course. We will turn salvation over and look at the subject in all its fullness. God is only interested in complete salvation. God is interested in salvation that delivers the sinful man: spirit, soul, and body; past, present, and future; penalty, power, and presence. That is what God's business is: complete salvation. These two books containing twenty chapters/lessons can be read privately, or they can be taught in an audience setting.

Book Under the Unpredictable Plant

Download or read book Under the Unpredictable Plant written by Eugene Peterson and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 1994-06-27 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Like Eugene Peterson's other books on pastoring, Under the Unpredictable Plant is full of stimulating insights, candid observations, and biblically grounded prescriptions. Yet this book emanates with a special poignancy out of Peterson's own crisis experience as a pastor. Peterson tells about the "abyss," the "gaping crevasse," the "chasm" that he experienced, early in his ministry, between his Christian faith and his pastoral vocation. He was astonished and dismayed to find that his personal spirituality, his piety, was inadequate for his vocation -- and he argues that the same is true of pastors in general. In the book of Jonah -- a parable with a prayer at its center -- Peterson finds a subversive, captivating story that can help pastors recover their "vocational holiness." Using the Jonah story as a narrative structure, Peterson probes the spiritual dimensions of the pastoral calling and seeks to reclaim the ground taken over by those who are trying to enlist pastors in religious careers.

  • ISBN : 1506464351
  • Pages : 173 pages

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The way of the pilgrim begins with what we leave behind--not so much a journey to a holy place, but a holy practice of leaving the comforts of the familiar for a radical vulnerability, letting the very breath of God direct us on the unknown, stripped-down path of trust. InWithout Oars, Wesley Granberg-Michaelson blends history, storytelling, biblical insights, personal reflections, and spiritual formation in an inviting call to discover pilgrimage as a way of life. This book offers a unique perspective on the faith journey as an embodied practice of heading into the unknown and unknowable--with all the excitement, risk, and rewards that come with letting go.

Book The Church

    Book Details:
  • Author : David Zac Niringiye
  • Publisher : Langham Global Library
  • Release : 2014-12-14
  • ISBN : 1783689722
  • Pages : 217 pages

Download or read book The Church written by David Zac Niringiye and published by Langham Global Library. This book was released on 2014-12-14 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this day when Christians and churches are widely dispersed throughout the world, the ques- tion ‘Who is the church?’ could easily be dismissed as irrelevant. In this publication, Bishop David Zac Niringiye pleads that as Jesus warned, we should not be in haste to conclude that any community with religious titles or forms and who speaks the right language of ‘Lord, Lord . . . ’ is authentic church. Taking his cue from Hebrews 11 and 12 the author addresses the motif of ‘the people of God’, looking first at the ancient people of Israel, beginning with Moses, then the new Israel and the covenant in Christ, born through the Holy Spirit at Pentecost and finally the life of the new community, the church, during the apostolic era. Through this biblical journey it is made clear that as the pilgrim people of God and the new community in Christ we must be marked by faith, love and hope, looking forward to the full consummation of the kingdom of God – justice, peace and joy, fully realized when ‘the new heaven and the new earth where righteousness dwells’ (2 Peter 3:13) is inaugurated.

  • Author : Jeremy Walker
  • Publisher : Reformation Heritage Books
  • Release : 2015-05-20
  • ISBN : 1601783884
  • Pages : 309 pages

Download or read book Passing Through written by Jeremy Walker and published by Reformation Heritage Books. This book was released on 2015-05-20 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As twenty-first-century Christians, we must relate to the world, but the question is, how do we relate to it? Some Christians are scared, others are simply bewildered, and still others capitulate to the spirit of the age. In Passing Through: Pilgrim Life in the Wilderness , Pastor Jeremy Walker presents the biblical perspective that Christians are pilgrims passing through this fallen world who must cultivate the spirit of holy separation alongside holy engagement as they serve Christ in all their interactions. Unless we embrace this identity, we will lose our way. Reminding us that we need “the Word of God as our map and the Spirit of Christ as our compass,” Pastor Walker clearly presents principles for holy engagement with the world and separation from it for pilgrims on their way home, seeking to glorify the God of their salvation every step of the way. Table of Contents: A Way in the World Strangers and Pilgrims Understand the Environment Know the Enemy Fight the Battles Pursue the Mission Respect the Authorities Alleviate the Suffering Appreciate the Beauty Anticipate the Destiny Cultivate the Identity Serve the King

Book A Tender Lion

  • Author : Bennett Wade Rogers
  • Publisher : Reformation Heritage Books
  • Release : 2019-01-29
  • ISBN : 1601786492
  • Pages : 423 pages

Download or read book A Tender Lion written by Bennett Wade Rogers and published by Reformation Heritage Books. This book was released on 2019-01-29 with total page 423 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John Charles Ryle became the undisputed leader and spokesman of the evangelical party within the Church of England in the last half of the nineteenth century, and his works continue to be read by evangelicals of various denominational stripes more than a century after his death. Accordingly, he is often portrayed as "an old soldier" of a heroic cause. While this view of Ryle holds some merit, it often obscures the complexity and dynamism of a most remarkable man. In this intellectual biography, Bennett Wade Rogers analyzes the complicated life and times of a man variously described as traditional, moderate, and even radical during his fifty-eight-year ministry. Ryle began his ministerial career as a rural parish priest; he ended it as a bishop of the second city of the British Empire. In the time between, he became a popular preacher, influential author, effective controversialist, recognized party leader, stalwart church defender, and radical church reformer.

  • Pages : 35 pages

Download or read book The Third Way written by Chris Surber and published by Energion Publications. This book was released on 2017-10-27 with total page 35 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It’s difficult to be a pilgrim in a consumer world. A pilgrim is someone who looks more toward the destination than his present place. A consumer sets up shop as he secures more to consume, and invests his time, resources, and energy into guaranteeing there will always be more to consume. In Luke 17:33 Jesus says, “If you cling to your life, you will lose it, and if you let your life go, you will save it.” Finding our pilgrim path is the focus of this book to prepare the reader for the mission team they have chosen to be a part of. Come along with Pastor Chris!
