Download or read book To Become a God written by Michael J. Puett and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2020-10-26 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Evidence from Shang oracle bones to memorials submitted to Western Han emperors attests to a long-lasting debate in early China over the proper relationship between humans and gods. One pole of the debate saw the human and divine realms as separate and agonistic and encouraged divination to determine the will of the gods and sacrifices to appease and influence them. The opposite pole saw the two realms as related and claimed that humans could achieve divinity and thus control the cosmos. This wide-ranging book reconstructs this debate and places within their contemporary contexts the rival claims concerning the nature of the cosmos and the spirits, the proper demarcation between the human and the divine realms, and the types of power that humans and spirits can exercise. It is often claimed that the worldview of early China was unproblematically monistic and that hence China had avoided the tensions between gods and humans found in the West. By treating the issues of cosmology, sacrifice, and self-divinization in a historical and comparative framework that attends to the contemporary significance of specific arguments, Michael J. Puett shows that the basic cosmological assumptions of ancient China were the subject of far more debate than is generally thought.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Russell’s new high fantasy series launch is well written with a definite steampunk vibe and sword-and-sorcery appeal.” —Library Journal A world consumed by war. An ancient evil resurrected. A millennia-old bargain comes due . . . When two blades clash, the third will fall, and the fate of all will be jeopardized. To save Lozaria, the failures of the past must be atoned for by a new generation of heroes. The time has come for mortals to cast off sight and, in doing so, truly come to see . . . Victory is never absolute. Seven centuries ago, the forces of order won the Illyriite War on the plains of Har’muth. Darmatus and Rabban Aurelian slew their elder brother, Sarcon, the despotic architect of the conflict, then sacrificed themselves to banish the cataclysmic vortex opened with his dying breath. The first advent of the Oblivion Well was thwarted. Even without their vanished gods, the seven races of Lozaria proved themselves capable of safeguarding their world. Or so the story goes. The year is now 697 A.B.H. (After the Battle of Har’muth). Though war itself remains much the same, the weapons with which it is waged have evolved. Airships bearing powerful cannons ply the skies, reducing the influence of mages and their spells. Long-range communication has brought far-flung regions of Lozaria closer than ever before. At the center of this technological revolution are the three Terran states of Darmatia, Rabban, and Sarconia, who have fought a near ceaseless campaign of seven hundred years in an attempt to best each other. The roots of their enmity lie buried beneath the wasteland of Har’muth, a place all three nations consider best forgotten. However, an ancient power sealed within Har’muth has not forgotten them, and the descendants of those who fought on that field must now take a stand to rectify the mistakes of the past . . .

Download or read book Return of the Divine Feminine Rise of the Divine Masculine written by Duann Kier and published by . This book was released on 2020-02-11 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Return of the Divine Feminine, Rise of the Divine Masculine" explores the spiritual concept of duality and its influence in our everyday lives, down to the way we perceive each other and ultimately ourselves. In this book, the author delves deep into the psyches of men regarding their personal experiences and perspectives towards both the Divine Feminine and the Divine Masculine within themselves. Bringing focus on how society is impacted daily by a limited "either/or" thinking, this book emphasizes how we are all affected on a global level by neglecting the personal aspects of our own Divine Femininity and Divine Masculinity. The men featured in this book explore the religious manifestation and image of a male God, shining light on the fragments that remain without the union and prominent concept of a Divine Feminine figure. Thus, the human male can only fully express his Divine Masculine after he has awakened his Divine Feminine counterpart.

Download or read book A Body of Divinity written by Thomas Watson and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2015-11-29 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thomas Watson's Body of Practical Divinity is one of the most precious of the peerless works of the Puritans; and those best acquainted with it, prize it most. Watson was one of the most concise, racy, illustrative, and suggestive of those eminent divines who made the Puritan age the Augustan period of evangelical literature. There is a happy union of sound doctrine, heart-searching experience and practical wisdom throughout all his works; and his Body of Divinity is, beyond all the rest, useful to the student and the minister. He explains the Doctrines of God, Divine Sovereignty, Salvation, Sin, and the Trinity with remarkable clarity. His thinking is sound and Scriptural. Puritan theology sets the diadem of our salvation on Christ, and Christ alone, and it is solely on the basis of his meritorious work that we are saved.

Book excerpt: In this work, John Gill argues for the existence and characteristics of the triune God. These arguments are all given from a heavily Calvinist perspective but he uses a lot of scripture to back up his claims.

These characteristics then carry on in the final stages of life, when human beings pass away and move on to heaven or hell.
Download or read book Divinity and Satanism and the Human Brains written by Ramsis Ghaly MD FACS and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2018-06-13 with total page 1126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about the human soul existing deep in the heart of the brain. This soul speaks to the divine god Jesus Christ, meditating while condemning the recent uprise in Satanism. As a Coptic Orthodox growing up in Egypt, a Christian minority, spiritual reflections have become my way of communication with my Lord. Being a neurosurgeon has made my faith and understanding in Christianity stronger, as I found the connection between humanity and divinity through the human brain. In this book, the author reflects on divinity and Satanism in the human brain. The human soul connects to her Lord Jesus and defines him, his love, and his words as one-to-one. It covers aspects of the human life span, from its birth through its destiny. Divinity competes with Satanism to enter within the human mind and brain. The ultimate product will determine the fate of each soul after its departure. This book contains seventy-one chapters, which are written as my souls perspective of the Bible, brain surgery, nature, universe, and world news. While forty-three chapters are written about the beauty of our Lord Jesus, love, sun, rose, and beloved of the human soul of all people. Another twenty-eight chapters are written in the memory of the Christian massacred by the darkness.
