Download or read book Secrets from Heaven Hidden Treasure of Faith in the Parables and Conversations of Jesus written by Fr Sebastian Walshe and published by Catholic Answers Press. This book was released on 2020-05 with total page 187 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The greatest teacher who ever lived, Jesus knew how to reach his audience where they were at. Whether preaching to a group in parable or holding an intimate conversation, he had an unequaled ability to get across the message that his listeners needed to hear. His teachings in the Gospels speak no less directly to us today. But so rich in meaning are the words of our incarnate God, so layered and profound his messages, that often we fail to do more than scratch their surface. And over time, our habit of superficial encounter with the Word can become self- perpetuating. In Secrets from Heaven, Fr. Sebastian Walshe helps you break free from stale and familiar takes on the Gospel, giving you new eyes to see and new ears to hear the inexhaustible depths of Christ's wisdom. The Parable of the Sowers, the Good Samaritan, the Prodigal Son, the woman caught in adultery - all these and more come alive in fresh ways, revealing significant details and nuances, scriptural/historical connections, and testaments to Christ's rhetorical and pedagogical genius that you've never noted before. You'll marvel at Jesus' skill as an evangelist; but more importantly, you'll be powerfully moved to faith and love just as those who heard him in person long ago. Nothing Jesus taught was truly "secret" - he revealed the Father for all the world to see. But that doesn't mean his revelation is simplistic. Read Secrets from Heaven and go deeper into the saving mysteries of his life and words.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The discovery of the collection of the 86 parables of Jesus Christ without commentary, may be the ultimate Christen self discovery success process you have been praying for! By recognizing the mystical understanding of each parable, you can find the insights that bring the experience of your immortality into a direct conscious experience. This experience of being consciously immortal can then be experienced anywhere, anytime and under any circumstance! This immortality experience is for you, since the parables are about you! Jesus taught the mystical parables to anyone that would listen to them, evaluate them, then make decisions about them, and then experience the mystical secret, and then enter into daily actions based upon the living experience from them! The 86 parables of Jesus Christ have been hidden in the books of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John as part of the story of Jesus Christ. The discovery of the collection of the parables brings into focus the profound mystical teachings about our immortality in a discovery process that can be followed, as long as a soul can read them from a mystical viewpoint, as well as from a mortal point of view. The book, AMAZING PARABLE COLLECTION DISCOVERY, OF JESUS CHRIST without commentary, is written in two parts. The first part of the book is just the 86 treasure parables in a collection form and in sequence, as found in the New Testament of the Holy Bible. The second part of the book is called The Freedom Road where I explain the differences between mortally understanding the parables and mystically understanding the meaning of each parable. The parables are like personal treasures about you! However, the parables are wrapped in a mysticalsecret language. The Freedom Road shows a way to transcend ordinary thinking about you. It produces a self-discovery process for your Christian Identity that is fresh and self-evident. We have now started the third Millennium of Christianity and the true Identity, self-discovery process as taught to us by Jesus Christ. The discovery of the parables in a collection form can show to you, your mystical side of yourself! The fruit of your faith can be the direct, self-evident experience of being immortal! This conscious experience of being immortal can open up a wonderful realm of personal treasures, about your mortal and immortal life. If you would like to evolve as a faith soul, then studying the mystical side of the parables is just right for you. If you would like to change some of your personality attitudes, then you have a fresh new map or blueprint to aid your desires. If you would like to understand other souls better, then the deciphering of the parables mystically will answer your prayers. When you read the parable collection from beginning to end, Jesus is talking to you, about you, for about three hours! These three hours of listening to Jesus' secret teachings about you and your immortality and your life in heaven forever, will open your heart, mind, and soul! The discovery of the direct experience, of you, being immortal is certainly worth the effort. You will then want to make some decisions about you, and in doing so, you will also make new decisions about God and the Family of God! These decisions about God and the Family of God may be subtle or the decisions may be drastic! Everything depends upon your current state of Christian evolution. In the first part of the book, the parables stand alone, without any commentary from myself about what the mortal or mystical insights are to any of the parables. In the second part of the book called The Freedom Road, I offer some thought provoking insights about you, but I do not offer any mystical explanations about the meaning of any of the parables. I have left that up to you to have the pure fun and enjoyment of mystically deciphering the parable treasures for yourself, about you! In closing, I would like to encourage you to invest some time with Jesus and listen to

While many details of God's revelation train are still shrouded, secrets hidden for centuries are now revealed to us. John Van Diest and Alton Gansky help us see and understand these secrets, which are hiding in plain sight in the words of Jesus and throughout the Bible.

Download or read book The Hidden Parables written by Todd Michael and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2008-09-04 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The secret and empowering messages contained within Christ’s thirty parables—an astonishing and practical blueprint for the life you are destined for. In The Hidden Parables, Dr. Todd Michael unveils a hidden layer of meaning within the thirty enigmatic parables spoken by Christ that shows that the parables are not a random collection of stories but a unified system of knowledge. This integrated system of knowledge describes how to use the spiritual law of thought forms—of controlled intentions—to create more beneficial, more miraculous circumstances in our personal lives. The information it presents is clear and very useful. Moreover, this system bears an uncanny symmetry with many of today’s leading-edge ideas from quantum physics. In The Hidden Parables, the parables are meticulously retranslated, retaining the expressiveness of the original Greek and giving the reader a literal understanding of the words of Jesus. Those aspects of Christ’s words that are sometimes considered confounding are freshly revealed for their penetrating insights into human existence and for the hands-on methodology they provide for a greater self-understanding and for leading a more fulfilling life.

Download or read book Parable Church written by Mike Burnette and published by Zondervan. This book was released on 2021-03-30 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Parable Church, pastor and author Mike Burnette unpacks unique insights from Jesus' parables that can help us understand and experience the full, transformative life in community we are divinely intended to live. Christ never actually told us how to "do church." Yes, he had a lot to say about the church, but what he did say was mostly unrelated to stylistic issues or contextual trends. He never spoke about its leadership hierarchies or the pros and cons of denominational fellowships or the types of music. And yet, much of our time and energy as leaders and shepherds is consumed by chasing after tips, tricks, and secrets to "grow" churches. While we've tended to focus on church growth through strategies, programs, and metric-based insights, Christ always focused on the heart and the values of the Father, the values that actually change lives and increase the spiritual health of his people. By digging deeply into three important parables: The Parable of the Two Sons The Parable of the Sower The Parable of the Talents Parable Church weaves together personal narratives, unique cultural observations, and compellingly fresh biblical insights to paint a picture of something unimaginably greater than what most people think of when they think of Jesus' Church. Although Jesus never gave us directions for church, he did, through his parables, reveal what we should experience in our communities together--he revealed the culture of his kingdom.
Download or read book Laughter in Heaven written by Earl F. Palmer and published by Regent College Publishing. This book was released on 2004 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The parables of Jesus are of untiring interest because they have the intriguing capacity to dole out their meaning here a little, there a little, new new insights revealed by changing times. Here, master Bible expositor Earl Palmer finds in them the truths awaiting our generation, and presents those truths with a gifted sense of illustration and application. Partly because their veiled nature, the parables never grow old. Far from what we sometimes hear, they are not little stories so simple that they can make truth transparent, so anyone can understand. Jesus used parables so that the truth will actually be hidden from those who had rather not see it in the first place (Matthew 13:11-15). But for those who long for the truth, it is there for the discovering.

Download or read book Secrets of the Kingdom of Heaven written by Steven Teske and published by . This book was released on 2018-02-18 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When his disciples asked Jesus why he spoke in parables, Jesus did not say that the parables made his teachings easier to understand. Instead, he indicated that many people would misunderstand his parables. He suggested that they were spoken in a code that would only be understood by believers. "To you has been given to know the secrets of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it has not been given," he said (Matthew 13:11).What secrets are these? They are the identity of Jesus-truly and completely God, truly and completely human, and the world's only Savior and Redeemer-and the mission of Jesus-to live a sinless life in the place of his people, and to offer that life as a sacrifice to redeem his people. Lacking knowledge of those secrets, the parables of Jesus appear to be lessons about how to live as Christians. Knowing those secrets, the parables are revealed as descriptions of how to have eternal life through the work of Jesus-his sinless life, his sacrificial death, and his victorious resurrection.This book guides the reader to understand the parables of Jesus according to the secrets of the kingdom of heaven. It helps the reader to become that disciple described by Jesus: "Every scribe who has been trained for the kingdom of heaven is like the master of a house, who brings out of his treasure what is new and what is old" (Matthew 13:52).
Download or read book The Secret Message of Jesus written by Brian D. McLaren and published by Thomas Nelson. This book was released on 2007-04-01 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Brian McLaren began offering an alternative vision of Christian faith and life in books such as A New Kind of Christian and A Generous Orthodoxy, he ignited a firestorm of praise and condemnation that continues to spread across the religious landscape. To some religious conservatives, McLaren is a dangerous rebel without a doctrinally-correct cause. Some fundamentalist websites have even claimed he's in league with the devil and have consigned him to flames. To others though, Brian is a fresh voice, a welcome antidote to the staleness, superficiality, and negativity of the religious status quo. A wide array of people from Evangelical, Catholic, and Mainline Protestant backgrounds claim that through his books they have begun to rediscover the faith they'd lost or rejected. And around the world, many readers say that he has helped them find-for the first time in their lives-a faith that makes sense and rings true. For many, he articulates the promise of what is being called "emerging Christianity." In The Secret Message of Jesus you'll find what's at the center of Brian's critique of conventional Christianity, and what's at the heart of his expanding vision. In the process, you'll meet a Jesus who may be altogether new to you, a Jesus who is... Not the crusading conqueror of religious broadcasting; Not the religious mascot of partisan religion; Not heaven's ticket-checker, whose words have been commandeered by the church to include and exclude, judge and stigmatize, pacify and domesticate. McLaren invites you to discover afresh the transforming message of Jesus-an open invitation to radical change, an enlightening revelation that exposes sham and ignites hope, an epic story that is good news for everyone, whatever their gender, race, class, politics, or religion. "Pastor and best-selling author McLaren revisits the gospel material from a fresh-and at times radical-perspective . . . He does an excellent job of capturing Jesus' quiet, revolutionary style." --Publishers Weekly (starred review) "Here McLaren shares his own ferocious journey in pondering the teachings and actions of Jesus. It is McLaren's lack of salesmanship or agenda that creates a refreshing picture of the man from Galilee who changed history." --Donald Miller, Author of Blue Like Jazz "In this critical book, Brian challenges us to ask what it would mean to truly live the message of Jesus today, and thus to risk turning everything upside down." --Jim Wallis, Author of God's Politics and editor of Sojourners "Compelling, crucial and liberating: a book for those who seek to experience the blessed heat of Christianity at its source." --Anne Rice, Author of Christ the Lord: Out of Egypt
