Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Revelation of the Risen Lord At the same time a patient endeavour to enter into the meaning of the several recorded incidents brings out the absolute originality and the prevailing power Of the Truth which they combine to make known. The idea Of the Resur rection was a new thing; and it is seen to pro duce the effects of a new force. The Fact Of the Resurrection as thus set before us explains the Life Of the Church; and the Fact itself, or the belief in the Fact, is not explicable by any antecedent conditions apart from its truth. A careful study Of the evan gelio records shews that there were no elements present in the society of the believers to produce such an idea as they slowly realised. There was no enthusiastic hope to create visions; still less to create visions which involved the sacrifice Of cherished expectations. Everywhere it appears that a new thought is kindled by the successive manifestations Of the Lord, for which earlier be lief Offered a sufficient foundation but no more. In this connexion the remarkable limitation Of the manifestations Of the Risen Lord must be noticed. When'the lesson of the new Life wasonce given it was not repeated. The revelation to St Paul, the revelation of 'jesus' as 'the Son Of God', completes the whole series. The visions Of St Stephen and St John were Of a different order.

Download or read book Revelation of Jesus Christ written by Margaret Barker and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2000-11-02 with total page 462 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new and transforming approach to the Book of Revelation. Margaret Barker bases her study on a fresh reading of the primary sources. As an Old Testament scholar, she can read Revelation as Hebrew prophecy - ancient temple oracles which inspired Jesus and his own prophecies, and influenced the whole Jerusalem Church. Jerusalem was waiting for their Great High Priest to return and complete the Atonement at the end of the Tenth Jubilee. This expectation fuelled the revolt against Rome. Josephus, who deserted to Rome, was the false prophet. John, who escaped to Patmos, compiled Revelation as a record of the first generation. In the future, he taught, the Lord would return to his people in the Eucharist.This work illuminates the formative years of Christianity, in the social, religious and political situation of mid-first-century Palestine, in a quite remarkable way. It will have profound implications for the understanding of Christian origins and the development of Christian liturgy.

Download or read book The Revelation of Jesus Christ written by Stephen Kaung and published by Christian Fellowship Publishers. This book was released on with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book of revelation is the last of the sixty-six books of the Bible. As such, it is the concluding word of God and therefore occupies a special position. Whereas a blessing is attached to its reading, a curse is pronounced against anyone adding to its text—thus reflecting how very important is this book of God's word. The content of this present work, which will be two volumes in length, comprises the text of what were two separate series of messages on Revelation spoken by the author in, respectively, the year 2007 and back during the 1950s. After these many years, and inasmuch as we sense the return of the Lord Jesus to be increasingly imminent, we believe that there is a need to make these spoken words available in print in order that many more of God's people may receive the promised blessing. It is our prayer that all who shall read this book will receive God's blessing in their being better prepared for the imminent return to the earth of our blessed Lord Jesus Christ.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An easy to read introduction to the book of Revelation by a respected biblical scholar.; Do you find Revelation hard to understand? Help is at hand! Dr Pieter J. Lalleman, Tutor of Biblical Studies at Spurgeon’s College, London, takes the reader step by step through the challenges of the Bible’s last and most difficult to understand book. Details: The book of Revelation is first and foremost a letter addressed to seven churches in Asia Minor (modern day Turkey). Like any normal letter the book contains references to the situation of the readers. As later readers we look over the shoulders of the original readers into a correspondence which initially was not directed to us. Yet Revelation is also a prophetic book. John himself makes this claim in 1:3 and 22:7, 10, 18 and 19; in 10:11 his work is called prophesying. But what is prophecy in the Bible? People such as Elijah, Isaiah and Jeremiah were messengers of God who spoke his word to their contemporaries. God gave them spiritual insight into their time so that they could shine God’s light on it. They knew God’s precepts and applied these to the situation. Prophets warned people if they were not living as God wanted, but on the other hand they encouraged positive developments. Prophets pointed people to the consequences of their behavior and in that context they also spoke about the future. Jewish and Christian prophecy is thus not primarily a form of prediction of the future. It was first and foremost relevant for those who were being addressed; it confronted them with God’s opinion of their situation, with his hopes, his promises, and sometimes also with his judgement in case they would not listen. But when they repented, God adapted his plans, as we see in the book of Jonah. We will approach Revelation in the same way in which we handle all prophecy: by asking what kind of situation is in view and what was expected of the first hearers. Subsequently we will raise the question how this might be relevant to us in the twenty-first century. Revelation is a letter and a prophecy, but it is also an apocalyptic book. The Greek word for ‘revelation’ in 1:1 is ‘apocalypse’. We often use this word in such expressions as ‘an apocalyptic event’, but we must be careful that our modern language does not hinder our understanding of the Bible. Apocalyptic texts are books which claim to contain revelations about the heavenly world and/or about the future, but not necessarily about disasters. And they challenge us to check our behavior. The studies in this book discuss the more readily accessible parts of Revelation, with special attention to the connections of these passages with the Old Testament.
Download or read book What Jesus Learned from Women written by James F. McGrath and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2021-02-26 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dehumanization has led to serious misinterpretation of the Gospels. On the one hand, Christians have often made Jesus so much more than human that it seemed inappropriate to ask about the influence other human beings had on him, male or female. On the other hand, women have been treated as less than fully human, their names omitted from stories and their voices and influence on Jesus neglected. When we ask the question this book does, what Jesus learned from women, puzzling questions that have frustrated readers of the Gospels throughout history suddenly find solutions. Weaving cutting edge biblical scholarship together with an element of historical fiction and a knack for writing for a general audience, James McGrath makes the stories of women in the New Testament come alive, and sheds fresh light on the figure of Jesus as well. This book is a must read for scholars, students, and anyone else interested in Jesus and/or in the role of ancient women in the context of their times.
Download or read book The Book of Revelation written by G. R. Beasley-Murray and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2010-07-01 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dr. Beasley-Murray has made a special study of the Revelation, the notorious difficulties of which have challenged and fascinated him for many years. An essential key to the understanding of its enigmatic character is the realization that it comes within the category of apocalyptic literature, in which acknowledged symbols were used to disguise the real meaning. According to the author, that which "to the uninitiated modern reader appears grotesque imagery spoke with power to John's fellow-Christians . . ."Due weight is also given to the Christology of the book, which the author sees as inseparable from its eschatology.
