Download or read book SECRETS OF ENOCH INSIGHTS from the 2nd Book of Enoch written by SN Strutt and published by Paragon Publishing. This book was released on 2024-06-21 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ‘SECRETS OF ENOCH INSIGHTS’ is a sequel to my first ‘INSIGHTS’ books published in 2018 - which was called ‘ENOCH INSIGHTS’ and was based on the 1st Book of Enoch. The ‘Secrets of Enoch Insights’ is based on the 2nd Book of Enoch. Both these books go together like hand and glove. The 2 books complement each other as I am sure that Enoch himself originally intended. My INSIGHTS books are designed to take the original text of the ancient Hebrew books and make them much easier to understand with definition of words. There are many comments and commentaries along with cross-bible verses. You will find verses in this book showing what it also said in 1st Enoch when dealing with a similar topic. I now have published ‘9 INSIGHTS’ books based on either ancient Hebrew books or Apocryphal books, which were also originally written in Hebrew then translated into Greek around 100-300 BCE and then Latin then as in the case of this Slavonic translation, finally into English. There are many amazing things written by Enoch of old in this book. There are truths which expose the status quo of modern thinking. This book describes PRE-CREATION and how God allowed both the LIGHT and the DARKNESS for an important purpose. This book also shows that the Holy Spirit is in fact female, just like in the Book of Proverbs. All ancient Hebrew books attest to the Holy Spirit being feminine.

Download or read book Water and Water Related Phenomena in the Old Testament Wisdom Literature written by Kivatsi Jonathan Kavusa and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2019-10-17 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kivatsi Jonathan Kavusa addresses a gap in the field of ecological readings of the Old Testament, exploring the theme of water in the Wisdom books, including the often-ignored deuterocanonical works. Kavusa focuses on both the negative and positive potential of water, drawing in particular on four of the Earth Bible principles: intrinsic worth, interconnectedness, voice, and purpose. Kavusa begins with a summary of the extant studies and literature reviews on water and water-related motifs in the Old Testament. He then analyses the books of Job, Proverbs, Ecclesiastes and the Deutero-canonical wisdom, examining the various references to water as life-giving or life-threatening entities, and expanding upon the themes of water management and sustainability, the intrinsic worth of nature and the unpredicatable, chaotic state of water. This volume concludes with several insights for ecological responsibility and valuable wisdom for an eco-theological perspective, both in Kavusa's African context and with a more universal application.

Download or read book 101 Helps for Helpers written by Dr. Linda Johnson Crowell and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2008-03-18 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We were created to care for each other. Some such as social workers, counselors, pastors, chaplains, seminarians, doctors, nurses, teachers, missionaries, and many others have experienced a calling and have pursued education and training that equipped them to be professional helpers. Others have sensed a calling, and out of love, passion, and compassion help and care for others. Still others just help because we are called to bear one anothers burdens and to lend a helping hand along lifes journey. And others took on the task of being a caregiver because that was the thing to do. This book is written for helpers and caregivers-thus everyone. Sometimes helpers become burdened with the load of caring; sometimes they need something to lift their spirits; sometimes they need a source of new insights and new ideas. Yet, sometimes, they need the comfort that comes from spending time in Gods Word, meditating on Gods promises, and seeing how biblical characters found help from God. I hope this book will be one that you turn to time and again; one that you will share with others. As you go along each day, use the book as a source for daily meditation, reflection, and inspiration. Or, take a break; turn to a page; or let the book fall open to a page; and anticipate how God will send the right message and encouragement that you need for a moment of disappointment, discouragement, or when you need a word of discernment. Better yet, find a happy story to make you laugh, reminisce, and celebrate. Be blessed as you help and care for others as well as yourselves.

Download or read book Our World God s Visible Language written by Jerry Salloum and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on 2022-05-18 with total page 343 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “How could you ever have thought [our world] was the ultimate reality? How could you ever have thought that it was merely a stage set for the moral drama of men and women?” For the many who share these thoughts from C.S. Lewis, our world is far more than mere matter, space and energy. Its orderly patterns, its reliable processes and arresting natural beauty give it the capacity to speak, without words, a mysterious language that feeds our curiosity and wonder about it. We are drawn into the world of the audacious, with thoughts beyond the conventional, to posit an intelligent and imaginative Artist and Architect whose ineffable Creation in both its spatial and temporal dimensions defies adequate verbal expression. In delving into revelation contained in various earth sciences and within the pages of the Bible, Our World: God’s Visible Language reveals a congruency between these two avenues to Truth, that the visible Creation repeatedly declares the glory and mystery of the invisible God, and that science is not an enemy to faith. Informative and written with imagination and personal anecdotes, these pages provide readers an opportunity to better understand the invisible God and His written Word, nudging us toward a loftier context in which life can be lived and enjoyed with hope and purpose.

Download or read book The Absence of Justice written by Paul E. Leightner and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2003-07-14 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tragedy is a common experience that causes many believers to feel betrayed by God. Job was declared righteous by God, yet suffered a series of horrible tragedies. Most people are ill prepared to deal with tragedy, resulting in bitterness that hinders their faith and growth. Like Job, they cannot understand how a benevolent God can allow evil things to happen to good people. Job's friends come to comfort him in his distress, but instead, attack him viciously because their creed declares that he must have blasphemed and sinned to deserve this punishment. Job held the same beliefs, but denies any wrongdoing, and ultimately sues God for a reason for his suffering. God then asks a series of questions that for Job are unanswerable. But modern science knows the answers to God's questions. This gives rise to a surprising eschatological interpretation. This book develops a solution to the age-old problem of evil.

Download or read book The Firmament of the Sky Dome written by Leander R Pimenta and published by Troubador Publishing Ltd. This book was released on 2012-06-01 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'The Firmament of the Sky Dome' explores how a supernova explosion of a large star eventually resulted in the formation of planet Earth and the rest of the Solar System as we know it today. Knowing how the Earth was created is the key that unlocks the mysteries of many global events that have occurred on our planet in the past and will take place in the near future. These include the dramatic events of the first three 'days' of the Genesis 1 account of creation: the floodlighting of the entire planet, the formation of the solid dome in the sky called 'the firmament' and the emergence of a supercontinent of dry land. Other events include Noah's flood which wiped out nearly all land-living life; the dramatic parting of the Red Sea; the breakup of the supercontinent into the present say continents; Joshua's long day when the Earth appeared to stop rotating; Ahab's sundial which indicated that the Sun had moved backwards in its normal path across the sky; the destruction of the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah; the extraterrestrial events that are predicted during the Great Tribulation to come; the devastation of the Earth by a Great Fire and its subsequent transformation into a paradise with the city of New Jerusalem. The book intertwines the verses from the Bible with scientific truths, and gives an entirely new insight for the interpretation of the geology of the Earth. The future of the Earth is also predicted: the Earth will be devastated by a global 'natural' nuclear explosion that will set it on fire; but this will not be the end because it will be subsequently transformed into a wonderful paradise for a new phase of existence for mankind.

Download or read book Divine Mysteries in the Enochic Tradition written by Andrei A. Orlov and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2023-07-24 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book represents an in-depth investigation of acquisition, cultivation, and transmission of divine mysteries in Jewish apocalyptic and mystical accounts by focusing on the developments found in early Enochic writings. These accounts deal both with revelations unveiled by God and angels to the patriarch Enoch and with illicit transmission of divine knowledge by the rogue group of the fallen angels, known as the Watchers. Orlov argues that the map of otherworldly knowledge revealed to Enoch inversely mirrors the map of illicit revelations given by the fallen Watchers to humankind. The study suggests that one of the possible objectives for the parallelism is that, by revealing to Enoch the same divine mysteries that were earlier transmitted by the Watchers, God attempts to mitigate the corruption caused by the fallen angels’ illicit instructions. This book will be of interest not only for scholars specializing in historical and religious areas, but also for experts in the fields of anthropology, philosophy, sociology, psychology, and gender theory; it discusses several aspects of early and late Jewish religious epistemologies that elucidate the ideological context for the construction and affirmation of social roles and identities in various Jewish milieus.

Download or read book Weathering the Psalms written by Steve A. Wiggins and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2014-12-03 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The weather is all around us all the time. From ancient times people have attributed the weather to the work of the gods. Ancient Israel shared this perception. The book of Psalms reflects theologically significant views on the weather that have not, until now, been fully explored. In this meteorological survey of the Psalms, whimsically called "meteorotheology," every reference to the weather is translated in accordance with the known climate and weather of ancient Israel. Each verse is discussed with particular attention to the function of the weather in the hymnal of ancient Israel. This book will be a resource for translators, clergy, and scholars with an interest in how the weather impacted religious outlooks in ancient Israel. Readers will learn that some expected associations, such as thunder and lightning, did not influence Israelite views on the natural world in the same way that they do today. Yahweh was God of the weather, and the Psalms frequently use this paradigm as a reason for both praise and fear of the Lord.
