Download or read book Ordinary Resurrections written by Jonathan Kozol and published by Crown. This book was released on 2012-07-24 with total page 418 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jonathan Kozol's books have become touchstones of the American conscience. In Ordinary Resurrections, he spends four years in the South Bronx with children who have become his friends at a badly underfunded but enlightened public school. A fascinating narrative of daily urban life, Ordinary Resurrections gives a human face to poverty and racial isolation, and provides a stirring testimony to the courage and resilience of the young. Sometimes playful, sometimes jubilantly funny, and sometimes profoundly sad, these are sensitive children—complex and morally insightful—and their ethical vitality denounces and subverts the racially charged labels that the world of grown-up expertise too frequently assigns to them. Yet another classic case of unblinking social observation from one of the finest writers ever to work in the genre, this is a piercing discernment of right and wrong, of hope and despair—from our nation's corridors of power to its poorest city streets.

Download or read book Shakespearean Resurrection written by Sean Benson and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2009-10-07 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This engaging book demonstrates Shakespeare’s abiding interest in the theatrical potential of the Christian resurrection from the dead. In fourteen of Shakespeare’s plays, characters who have been lost, sometimes for years, suddenly reappear seemingly returning from the dead. In the classical recognition scene, such moments are explained away in naturalistic terms a character was lost at sea but survived, or abducted and escaped, and so on. Shakespeare never invalidates such explanations, but in his manipulation of classical conventions he parallels these moments with the recognition scenes from the Gospels, repeatedly evoking Christ’s resurrection from the dead. Benson’s close study of the plays, as well as the classical and biblical sources that Shakespeare fuses into his recognition scenes, clearly elucidates the ways in which the playwright explored his abiding interest in the human desire to transcend death and to live reunited and reconciled with others. In his manipulation of resurrection imagery, Shakespeare conflates the material with the immaterial, the religious with the secular, and the sacred with the profane.
Download or read book The Resurrection and Immortality written by William West and published by Xulon Press. This book was released on 2006-08 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE RESURRECTION AND IMMORTALITY Is man born with an immortal soul, or do the saved put on immortality at the resurrection? This is one of the most important questions of all times. It has more influence on our conception of our nature, our view of life in this world, and life after death, the nature of God, than any other question. The resurrection and an undying immortal soul are not compatible. If one is true, then the other one cannot be. YOUR WHOLE THEOLOGY [what you believe] IS DETERMINED BY YOUR VIEW OF THE SOUL. Not only does man now having an immortal soul make the resurrection impossible, it makes the judgment be passed; and the second coming of Christ pointless for there could not be a resurrection or a judgment at His coming. The resurrection doctrine of unconditional immortality are contradictory to each other. You must choose one or the other. You cannot believe both. Christ taught the resurrection. It is our only hope of life after death, not now having immortality and never dying. The undead cannot be raised. If the soul is immortal and never dies ----- there cannot be a resurrection of those not dead If there is to be a resurrection of the dead the dead cannot be alive, cannot be living immortal souls The doctrine of unconditional immortality: Changes the nature of God, makes Him cruel and sadistic Changes the message we preach to the lost and their fate, whether they will have an eternal life with torment or a second death form which there will never be a resurrection Changes the nature of man, whether he is now mortal or immortal Changes the nature of the resurrection of Christ, whether He was dead and raised by God or only His earthly body was dead and He justcame back from Heaven to it Changes the nature of our resurrection, whether we are dead and resurrected or just come back from somewhere The resurrection an immortal soul. The wages of sin is death the wages of sin is an eternal life of torment.

Download or read book A Resurrection Like Christ s written by David W. Cooke and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2023-01-17 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book is a refutation of the Intermediate State, which teaches a separation of the soul and body of the saint at death, and the future bodily resurrection of all mankind at the Final Judgment. The Final Judgment is the resurrection of the lost to judgment. The Christian is resurrected body and soul to heaven at death, thus the title of the book, A Resurrection Like Christ’s. Christ after his time on earth entered heaven to receive glory upon his ascension, so shall the saints. The author has given the reader the broad arc of redemption history concerning resurrection in a manner which is logical and conforms to the biblical texts. The OT and NT are brought together to form a single theme. He writes about a difficult topic in a manner that can be read by any person with a basic knowledge of the Bible. Although not afraid to tackle the difficult texts, he does so in a concise manner to keep the points of the book in the mind of the reader. These points are the believer’s bodily resurrection to heaven at death, and the resurrection of those who rejected Christ on Judgment Day.

Download or read book No Hell Before the Resurrection or the Judgment written by Stanley Jackson and published by Covenant Books, Inc.. This book was released on 2023-12-26 with total page 163 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Before Jesus left this planet over two thousand years ago, He promised He would return to receive all believers onto Himself--believers who are dead and then believers who will be alive at the time of His return. All the things Jesus promised regarding the judgment, the punishment of the unrighteous, the experience of eternal life, and the completion and inheritance of His everlasting kingdom totally rely on the fact that Jesus must first come back to the planet He left, which is the Earth. This book presents biblical facts that refute the things we have been told about judgment day and the place of eternal punishment that is better known as hell. I present from the Holy Scriptures the fact that no one is presently burning in hell. I also prove by what is stated in the Scriptures that Christ must return, then the dead must be raised, and Judgment must occur first before any person will experience the punishment of hell. I also refute the nonbiblical assumption that says "good people go to heaven and bad people go to hell." I also provide information that will help any and all serious Bible students (even some casual Bible readers) to understand certain Bible words--words that are important in correctly understanding particular passages of Scripture the way they are intended to be understood. I present what the Bible reveals and what it actually says about the dead and what it says about the resurrection of the unsaved and salvation--salvation that can only be received through faith in Christ. I also show how those three things are relative to the coming of Christ, the judgment, and the punishment of all who reject God's love and mercy. This book is informative and challenging and gets straight to the point--no bloviating. The content of this book should either cause a reader to make the decision to receive Christ or inspire a believer to tell someone who is on the road to destruction about God's love and mercy that are received through faith in His Son, Jesus, who died and was resurrected to save and justify every person who would accept His gift of mercy and eternal life.

Download or read book Resurrection and Parousia written by Joost Holleman and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2014-04-09 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a traditio-historical study of three ideas concerning the eschatological resurrection which Paul brings forward in 1 Corinthians 15:20-23: (a) Jesus' resurrection forms the beginning of the eschatological resurrection; (b) the eschatological resurrection will take place through participation in Jesus' resurrection; (c) the eschatological resurrection will take place at the time of Jesus' parousia. The three ideas are investigated in the following way. Firstly, their occurrence and function in Paul is set out, subsequently their origin is reconstructed, and, finally, analogous Jewish concepts are compared. A critical review of earlier research on these ideas and a literary and historical exegesis of the relevant sections of 1 Corinthians 15 precede the investigations.
