Download or read book Advanced Prophetic Studies written by Gordon Ziegler and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2014-01-24 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is an outgrowth of a manuscript entitled, Advanced Prophetic Studies, by the author, written in 1981, later renamed, Manifold Revelation. This volume was designed to follow Blueprint for Revival (the precursor of Who Shall Stand) and The Daniel Eleven Mystery (the precursor of Daniel Eleven Mysteries) as a third volume in a set. The first two volumes in the set introduce the idea of more than one glorious coming of Christ during probationary time in the last days and a set of hermeneutic principles to test our prophetic views by. This volume takes those for granted, but explores those concepts through a wide range of Bible books. As in Daniel Eleven Mysteries, the text of the chapters is virtually free from the hermeneutic principles—those being reserved by chapter for Appendix A in Daniel Eleven Mysteries. The text, also, is a virtual commentary on the texts studied. Not only the applications envisioned in the original Advanced Prophetic Studies, but more recent applications of some of the texts are propounded. Every effort is made to bring the work up to date with the best light possible.

Book excerpt: A guide for students and pastors to interpret and communicate the messages of the prophetic books well Preaching from a prophetic text can be daunting because it can be difficult to place these prophecies in their proper historical setting. The prophets used different literary genres and they often wrote using metaphorical poetry that is unfamiliar to the modern reader. This handbook offers an organized method of approaching a prophecy and preparing a persuasive, biblically based sermon that will draw modern application from the theological principle embedded in the prophetic text.

Download or read book Forming Prophetic Literature written by James W. Watts and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 1996-10-01 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These essays are written in honour of John D.W. Watts, formerly Professor of Old Testament at Southern Baptist Seminary, Louisville, Kentucky and Old Testament editor of the Word Biblical Commentary, well known for his contributions, especially to scholarship on the prophetic books. Accordingly, the essays here address the literary, redactional and canonical questions posed by the Hebrew Bible's prophetic literature. The prophetic books have defied easy classification according to genre or facile explanation of their historical development. With a special focus on the books of Isaiah and of the Twelve Prophets, the nature and formation of prophecy as literature is probed from a variety of methodological standpoints, including textual criticism, synchronic literary analysis, tradition history and redaction criticism.
Download or read book You Are My People written by Louis Stulman and published by Abingdon Press. This book was released on 2011-12-01 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Building on recent developments in biblical studies, this book introduces the prophetic literature of the Old Testament against the background of today's postmodern context and crisis of meaning. Pulsating with anxiety over the empire--Assyrian, Babylonian, and Persian--the prophet corpus is a disturbing cultural expression of lament and chaos. Danger, disjunction, and disaster bubble beneath the surface of virtually every prophetic text. Sometimes in denial, sometimes in despair, and sometimes in defiance, the readers of this literature find themselves living at the edge of time, immediately before, during, or after the collapse of longstanding symbolic, cultural, and geo-political structures. These written prophecies not only reflect the social location of trauma, but are also a complex response. More specifically, prophetic texts are thick meaning-making maps, tapestries of hope that help at-risk communities survive.

Download or read book Chariots of Prophetic Fire written by R. J. Rushdoony and published by Chalcedon Foundation. This book was released on 2019-08-12 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is a marked resemblance between our time and that of Elijah and Elisha. Theirs was a time of judgment; ours is as well. But there is a deeper resemblance. Their day was an age of syncretism, of radical compromise between the worship of the Lord and Baal worship. The two had been blended together to make one religion, so that a refusal to see the necessity for uncompromising religion marked Israel. Israel rarely denied the Lord or professed open apostasy. Rather, it pursued a course of religious syncretism, using the name of the Lord but absorbing with their religion whatever other faith was expedient for them. Thus, they were not open pagans, but pagans who practiced their unbelief under cover of the Lord's name. Syncretism is again our problem. Numerous forces, powers, and persons are accorded sovereignty over man. Today, Baal-worship is again prevalent in the name of the Lord. Humanistic statism is easily and readily submitted to by churchmen: children are placed in humanistic state schools, given into the hands of the enemies of God, and people are only indignant if you condemn this practice. The major concern of most church members is not the Lord's battles, nor the urgency to make a stand against compromise, but, “How can I best enjoy life?” The similarity does not end there. Elijah and Elisha's day was one of prosperity, a false prosperity that was largely the product of inflation. Our age, too, has been marked by an inflationary prosperity, and the loosening of moral and religious standards is one result. People want things, not qualities or virtues. This mindset demands more material wealth for men and diminishes the need for moral and educational performance and excellence. It is now a virtue to tolerate evil and to be intolerant of any material lack for man. In Chariots of Prophetic Fire, R J. Rushdoony challenges the Church of our day to resist compromise and the temptation of expediency, and realize that the power today does not lie in politics or governments but in God's men of faith.
Download or read book An Introduction to the Old Testament Prophetic Books written by C. Hassell Bullock and published by Moody Publishers. This book was released on 2007-05-01 with total page 478 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Old Testament prophets spoke to Israel in times of historical and moral crisis. They saw themselves as being a part of a story that God was weaving throughout history--a story of repentance, encouragement, and a coming Messiah. In this updated introductory book, each major and minor prophet and his writing are clustered with the major historical events of their time. Our generational distance from the age of the prophets might seem to be a measureless chasm. Yet we dare not make the mistake of assuming that passing years have rendered irrelevant not only the Old Testament prophets, but also the God who comprehends, spans, and transcends all time. In these pages, C. Hassell Bullock presents a clear picture of some of history's most profound spokesmen--the Old Testament prophets--and the God who shaped them.
Download or read book Isaiah and Prophetic Traditions in the Book of Revelation written by Jan Fekkes and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 1994-01-01 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work is concerned with the influence of biblical and prophetic traditions on the author of the book of Revelation, and in particular his use of the prophecies of Isaiah. First, John's own prophetic consciousness and expression is compared with previous Israelite-Jewish and early Christian prophetic conventions. This is followed by an evaluation of John's use of the OT in general, including a discussion of methodology for isolating allusions, the question of the validity of the terms quotation and allusion in Revelation, and the presence of thematic patterns in the author's choice of Scripture. All this is foundational to the main portion of the work (Ch. III), where a detailed analysis is undertaken to determine the validity of all proposed allusions to Isaiah in the book of Revelation. Of the 72 suggested allusions treated, 40 were judged as certain or virtually certain, 24 were considered as unlikely or doubtful, and 8 were appraised as probable or possible. Those allusions which were accepted received further evaluation to see how and why they were used by John, with special attention given to the tradition-history of the passage used, and the possible interpretative techniques employed. A variety of exegetical and literary devices were uncovered, including the use of catchwords, inclusio, repetition of texts, exploitation of Hebrew parallelism, and the collection of texts around a central theme. Furthermore, John's use of Isaiah is concentrated in basic areas, with clusters of Isaiah texts appearing in specific sections of Revelation. The principal Isaian themes with which he is interested are holy war and the Day of the Lord, oracles against the nations, and salvation prophecies relating to the community of faith and the restored and glorified Jerusalem. It was concluded that on the whole, John's use of Isaiah is not random, and he does not use the OT texts merely as a visionary resource for language, phrases, structural patterns etc. But he consciously carries on the prophecies of his biblical predecessors and invokes their authority. The remnants and results of John's interpretation of Isaiah presuppose exegetical activity and application prior to the vision experience and it is likely that at least some of his intended readers were familiar not only with his theological concerns, but also with his methodological approach.
Download or read book Studies on Adventism s Evangelical Gospel written by Nyron Medina and published by . This book was released on 2019-01-16 with total page 778 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What makes a Seventh-day Adventist a real Seventh-day Adventist? an Adventist is made what he is by the faith of Adventism, he is a Seventh-day Adventist by the pillars of the Faith and by the prophecies given to him by the Holy Spirit's revelation. It is not the denomination of the SDA Church that designates a person as a true Seventh-day Adventist, it is the denominated faith of Seventh-day Adventism that makes him a Seventh-day Adventist. Affiliation with the body is good, but is not the element in true brotherly fellowship, the real element is in fellowshipping with those who have the real faith and morals.We are Thusia Seventh day Adventists. The name Thusia does not stand for a new religion, it is an adjectival noun that describes what kind of Adventists we are. The word Thusia is the Greek word for sacrifice in the LXX and the Greek of the New Testament or Second Witness. It means that we are sacrificial Seventh day Adventists, those who have sacrificed (or denied) self for the sake of love to God and love to their fellowmen because of the moral influence of the sacrifice (Thusia) Jesus made for us. This is true Seventh Day Adventism as is revealed in Romans 12:1 and Psalm 50:5. As the material of this book testifies, we have thoroughly examined the false SDA teachings, presented the teachings of true historic Adventism, and compared them with the false ones for all to see what has happened in the church. We have done all this in principled love, so that when the inquiry is made as to what is the difference between Thusia SDA and the traditional SDA denomination, people can have an appropriate answer, so as to not be deceived to accept the SDA church in its lukewarm state as a church approved of God.
