Download or read book Biblical Eschatology Second Edition written by Jonathan Menn and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2018-03-07 with total page 622 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Biblical Eschatology provides what is not found in any other single volume on eschatology: it analyzes all the major eschatological passages (including the Olivet Discourse and the book of Revelation), issues (including the second coming of Christ, the millennium, the rapture, and Antichrist), and positions (including all the major views of the millennium) in a clear, but not superficial, way. The book concludes with a chapter showing how eschatology is relevant for our lives. Biblical Eschatology makes understanding eschatology easier by including chapters on how to interpret prophecy and apocalyptic literature, by showing the history of eschatological thought, and by placing eschatology in the context of the Bible’s overall story line and structure. Clarity and understanding are enhanced by the use of comparative tables and appendices. Subject and Scripture indexes are included. The book interacts with the best of Evangelical and Reformed scholarship, and the extensive bibliography (which includes the web addresses of many online resources) provides an excellent source for the reader’s further study. This is a perfect resource for intelligent Christians, including pastors, students, and teachers, who desire to understand eschatology and to see how it fits together with the rest of the Bible.
Download or read book Coming Home to Earth written by Mark Brocker and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2016-09-13 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a young Norwegian Lutheran teenager in rural Wisconsin, Brocker lay awake one night worrying whether he believed in Jesus enough to get to heaven. This getting-to-heaven anxiety reflected an excessive focus on individual salvation and a loss of concern for the well-being of the Earth community. A faith journey that leaves Earth behind is misguided. Ever since those early teen years Brocker has been on a journey to come home to Earth. Coming Home to Earth makes the case that there is no salvation apart from Earth and that Earth care is at the core of our identity and mission as followers of Jesus. The ecological consequences of a loss of concern for the well-being of Earth have been devastating. Brocker is especially concerned to determine what will motivate followers of Jesus to make radical changes in our way of life so that we can participate in the healing of wounded Earth and all of its inhabitants, both human and nonhuman. We are far more likely to make needed sacrifices for our fellow creatures if we share God's delight in and affection for them, and cherish Earth as our home.
Download or read book Ecological Awareness written by Sigurd Bergmann and published by LIT Verlag Münster. This book was released on 2011 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The past years have seen an ecological development in religions that is staggering. These efforts are responses to difficult local and global ecological problems, with an increased awareness that religions need to be alert, engaged and active partners in the work for a sustainable future. Ecological Awareness - with 17 authors from theology, religious studies, biology, sociology and philosophy - explores how religious practitioners have become increasingly aware of ecological challenges. The book considers aspects of ecological awareness: personal, social, political, religious and ecological. It sheds new light on an essential function of belief systems, which function not only as cognitive and moral systems, but emerge from and affect our human body and its mode of perceiving our milieu and ourselves within it. The book contributes to an increasing awareness of our embeddedness in larger life processes, as well as the awareness of life as a gift.
Download or read book The Yucatan Connection written by Chuck Kimball and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2016-11-16 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While on a previous assignment, Lyle Mercer was unable to stop the flourishing drug trade originating in Pakistan. During this monumental endeavor he had assassinated suppliers and agents in many parts of the world, in the Bayou in the southern US, in France, and in Egypt. All he had really achieved was the temporary containment of the drug supply. Now the operation was back in force. Once again, a deep black controller working for POTUS (President of the United States) had asked him to risk his life for the homeland. With Brett Thompson, his partner, he is preparing to engage in a perilous undertaking which the two men were not sure they could handle. From the discovery of drugs and weapons in a cenote (natural water reservoir) in the Mexican State of Yucatan, the stalking and the assassination of the Chief of Detectives in Mexico City, the tortuous detour in Colombia, the pursuit into the bayou to eliminate thugs with crossbows, these two partners find themselves engaged in an incredible chase to eliminate drugs and arms dealers. This long and often fruitless hunt is targeting one kingpin in particular who is transporting his illegal merchandise by submarine to the United States. The smugglers’ extensive connection to Russia for sophisticated arms, and to the Orient for heroin, added to the genius of the traffickers inventing new methods to keep their profitable entrepreneurship thriving, may be too challenging for these two highly trained deep Black Ops agents. Mentally tortured by love for a woman has driven one of the partners to a breaking point at times. Will the love for his country and the devotion to his woman be an obstacle to the common cause, the exclusion of drugs and weapons entering the United States?

Download or read book The Rapture Exposed written by Barbara R. Rossing and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2007-03-30 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The idea of "The Rapture" -- the return of Christ to rescue and deliver Christians off the earth -- is an extremely popular interpretation of the Bible's Book of Revelation and a jumping-off point for the best-selling "Left Behind" series of books. This interpretation, based on a psychology of fear and destruction, guides the daily acts of thousands if not millions of people worldwide. In The Rapture Exposed, Barbara Rossing argues that this script for the world's future is nothing more than a disingenuous distortion of the Bible. The truth, Rossing argues, is that Revelation offers a vision of God's healing love for the world. The Rapture Exposed reclaims Christianity from fundamentalists' destructive reading of the biblical story and back into God's beloved community.
Download or read book The Return written by Elbert D. Charpie and published by Pentastic. This book was released on 2014-05-09 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Whether you call it the "return of Christ," "the Second Coming," or the "Rapture," there has been so much debate over the centuries about what the Bible teaches. Many have concluded the subject of Jesus' return is too complicated, or too confusing to understand. One reader said... "Reading, The Return was my 'light bulb' moment. Although God’s master pieces can be complicated, His past, present and future master plan for His creation is quite simple and easy to understand. The Return grips you with an almost unbelievable and detailed story of Christ’s return, then shines the light on what the Bible says, rather than trusting the blind to lead the blind. God is not the author of confusion. So why have we been so confused for so long? Until now…" Begins with a story of how the return of Christ could happen, and then explains the scriptures and compares the different views of Christ's return.
