Download or read book Jealousy and the Blindness of Biblical Betrayal The Negative Power of Jealousy in Leadership and Life written by II Bishop F. Johnson and published by Xulon Press. This book was released on 2020-02-16 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In my book, The Blindness of Biblical Betrayal, I cover "imitative rivalry" and the quote by Girard, "We are never more blind than when we are doing violence in the name of God!"While that book was going to print, I noticed in my daily Bible reading that approximately 23 chapters of the Old Testament were devoted to the rivalry of King Saul and David. Why would God devote so many chapters to this one relationship? Perhaps He wants us to see and learn from the jealousy and blinding betrayal of Saul towards David.This book mines those 23 chapters for truths and principles to face jealousy and betrayal.Jealousy and betrayal are common experiences because they are in the fallen DNA of humanity, but what the Devil means for evil, God will use for the good of His people.

Download or read book AMERICA FAILS AS JESUS IS BETRAYED written by George Joseph K PhD and published by GOD JESUS PROOF ACADEMY. This book was released on 2016-06-09 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a comprehensive survey of the core issues in rebuilding America and rescuing the world, which the US will have to address with urgency to survive and sustain its democratic and superpower status. Blind leaderships have led America to the destruction of its very foundations. America can afford no more mistakes in the gruesome ideological battle. America might be defeated through the moral decay of its own people. Military will not help. The ideological subversion of USA through the invasion of the Trojan Horses of Yoga and refugees will lead to the democratic demise of the greatest democracy in history. America is confronting a crisis in jurisprudence. Many are legislating for devil and executing national death. Advocating and legalizing ethical perversions like abortion, same sex marriage, bestiality etc. in the name of democracy, freedom and individual rights will reverse American civilization back into Stone Age and Babylonian Captivity. Europe and USA rejected Christian faith and Biblical values. There is selective discrimination against Christian faith. They have rejected the true God Jesus and the true religion of Christian faith and have gone after all kinds of false religions. Thus America is losing the image of God and is shifting to the image of animals via bestiality. So God will soon reject them and punish them. Europe will soon democratically succumb to an antagonistic religious dictatorship and USA will fall in line with. Democracy will be folklore in Europe and USA within the next 30 years. Future generations will curse the irresponsible secular idiocratic leaders who legalize all the evils in the name of freedom. God will replace America with China as the next superpower. But if America repents like Nineveh, it will be a different story. America needs a President who really knows and agrees to the basic values of the nation. America needs a President who knows why and how empires rise and empires fall. Trump is not a leader with a senseless direction but a leader with a sense of direction. He is the David of American politics. Many Goliaths will fall before him, if he is faithful to God and Christian values. Clinton’s support for abortion and same-sex marriage is an index in the wrong direction.
Download or read book Fidelity of Betrayal written by Peter Rollins and published by Paraclete Press. This book was released on with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What if one of the core demands of a radical Christianity lay in a call for its betrayal, while the ultimate act of affirming God required the forsaking of God? And what if fidelity to the Judeo-Christian Scriptures demanded their renunciation? In short, what would it mean if the only way of finding real faith involved betraying it with a kiss? Employing the insights of mysticism and deconstructive theory, The Fidelity of Betrayal delves into the subversive and revolutionary nature of a Christianity that dwells within the church while simultaneously undermining it.
Download or read book The Christian Betrayal of the United States written by Carl Wells and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2010-10-22 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Christian Betrayal of the United States theorizes that 100% of the problems of the United States have their root in the conservative, Bible-believing Christian church of this country. Countless books by liberal Christians or by non-Christians, have accused the "Christian right" of being a dangerous segment of our country. Following the principles of the Christian right will lead to tyranny, so the theory goes. The Christian Betrayal of the United States takes a very different tack. According to the author, the Bible-believing Christians have betrayed their country already--by their actions in many distinct arenas of life. Those who have cursed the Bible-believing Christians as being too Christian, have got it exactly backward. They may curse Christians again, when they understand that Christians were not Christian enough. The author, far from being a liberal Christian or a humanist, is a self-professed conservative, Bible-believing Christian. He strives to show how his own people have betrayed their nation. It is a dark story. On the brighter side, the author also tries to grope toward a solution of the problems he and his people have caused.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All mankind has betrayed Jesus Christ. All in some point in time have sold Jesus out. But Christ told his disciples that He would not abandon or forsake them. When Jesus told Judas to "Go do what you must do" did He give Judas enough rope to hang himself? This is the story of a man who dared to knock on heavens door. It opened and he went on to pick up his cross in Africa. Walking with the Christ He discovered a betrayal of biblical proportions." Amazing - This book can be life changing if you allow yourself to let go and be free. Its a great book." Ben Gothro 31st January 2020.
Download or read book Didymus the Blind and His Circle in Late antique Alexandria written by Richard A. Layton and published by University of Illinois Press. This book was released on 2004 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first comprehensive study in the English language of the commentaries of Didymus the Blind, who was revered as the foremost Christian scholar of the fourth century and an influential spiritual director of ascetics. The writings of Didymus were censored and destroyed due to his posthumous condemnation for heresy. This study recovers the uncensored voice of Didymus through the commentaries among the Tura papyri, a massive set of documents discovered in an Egyptian quarry in 1941. This neglected corpus offers an unprecedented glimpse into the internal workings of a Christian philosophical academy in the most vibrant and tumultuous cultural center of late antiquity. By exploring the social context of Christian instruction in the competitive environment of fourth-century Alexandria, Richard A. Layton elucidates the political implications of biblical interpretation. Through detailed analysis of the commentaries on Psalms, Job, and Genesis, the author charts a profound tectonic shift in moral imagination as classical ethical vocabulary becomes indissolubly bound to biblical narrative. Attending to the complex interactions of political competition and intellectual inquiry, this study makes a unique contribution to the cultural history of late antiquity.
Download or read book God Betrayed written by Jerald Finney and published by Xulon Press. This book was released on 2008-08 with total page 498 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: God Betrayed explains: (1) the biblical principles concerning government, church, and separation of church and state which one needs to know in order to understand the First Amendment and why it was adopted; (2) the history of the theological warfare in the colonies that eventually resulted in the adoption of the First Amendment; (3) how and why, soon after the ratification of the Constitution and the First Amendment, many churches subjected themselves to the state; (4) how the Supreme Court has used the First Amendment religion clause to remove God from practically all civil government affairs; (5) how civil government entices many churches to abandon their Supernatural and First Amendment freedoms; and (6) how churches in America can operate totally under God and free from any control by civil government. After graduating from college in 1970 and serving as an army officer in the Viet Nam conflict, Jerald Finney worked for the railroad and then started and operated a photography studio in Fort Worth, Texas. He was saved in 1982. God called him to enter the legal profession. He entered the University of Texas School of Law in 1990, and was licensed to practice law in 1993. Since that time, the Lord has guided his career. In 2005, he became lead counsel for the Biblical Law Center. This book is the result of his in depth studies of the issue of separation of church and state, the main issue which is addressed by the Biblical Law Center.

Book excerpt: Marriage is all about sharing: sharing space, sharing joys and sorrows, sharing hopes and dreams. Yet we often hold back a part of ourselves because we fear that being wholly transparent--about our past, our desires, our failures, our faults--will bring judgment, rejection, or even just unwanted friction to our relationship. We are afraid to be fully known. As a result, we never experience being fully loved. Fierce Marriage authors Ryan and Selena Frederick think your marriage deserves better. In this new, paradigm-shifting book, they show you how to develop a see-through marriage, one that is marked by full transparency and confident vulnerability. Through personal stories, testimonies from other couples, and biblical truth, they make the case that living authentically in front of each other is the only way to experience love the way we were designed to. If you desire an honest, no-holding-back marriage where you are fully known, fully accepted, and fully loved, you need this book.

Book excerpt: Turn Betrayal into Blessing! There are few pains that cut deeper than a betrayal. Betrayals hurt, they can be difficult to process, and they often don’t make sense. Betrayals, whether big or small, are a part of life. And perhaps nothing in life is more painful than when someone close to you treats you like an enemy. Jesus knew this pain well, for He suffered the most horrific betrayal in human history at the hands of Judas. But then He did what only God could do: He showed us the way to turn betrayal into blessing. In Thank You, Judas: How to Beat Betrayal, you will explore Judas’s betrayal of Jesus and learn: • The five behaviors of betrayal: pride, jealousy, operating within an inverted value system, selfishness, and being fake • How to walk in healing and victory after suffering a betrayal • Steps for turning a betrayal into an unforgettable blessing “We know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose” (Romans 8:28, NIV). Turn your most difficult test into a dynamic story, your greatest loss into your greatest gain, and your most painful heartbreak into your most powerful breakthrough with Thank You, Judas. www.HopeCityMKE.com Twitter: @tylrebutler @hopecitymke Instagram: @tylrebutler @hopecitymke

Book excerpt: This volume presents the findings of an international research symposium, held at St Andrews University, Scotland, in July 2003. Contributors include both biblical scholars and anthropologists. The essays presented variously explore and review interdisciplinary links, innovations and developments between anthropology and biblical studies in reference to interpretation of both the OT and NT and pseudepigraphal works. Explored are methodological issues, the use of anthropological concepts in biblical studies (identity; purity boundaries; virtuoso religion; spiritual experience; sacred space) and more ‘field orientated’ work of bible translators in different cultures.
Download or read book Betraying Betrayal written by Matthew Auguiste and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2024-04-29 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is carefully written. It is a classic on exposing the kiss of betrayal. No stone is left unturned as Matthew explores profound concepts and answers questions many are afraid to ask, forbidden questions as "Who is my betrayer? How does one identify a betrayer? Am I a betrayer? What are the heart-wrenching questions of betrayal? How should one cope with the sting of betrayal?" From the president to the pauper, from the pastor to the member, this book is related in a manner that we all can identify. Betraying Betrayal transcends the borders of hypocrisy, posturing, and speciousness. It brings to light the dark realities of being betrayed. Having felt the pangs of betrayal himself, Matthew offers hope on how to move from being a victim to becoming the victor who eventually betrays betrayal.
Download or read book A Body Broken A Body Betrayed written by Mary McClintock Fulkerson and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2015-10-28 with total page 95 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Race and privilege are issues that cry out for new kinds of attention and healing in American society. More specifically, we are being called to surface the dynamics of whiteness especially in contexts where whites have had the most power in America. The church is one of those contexts--particularly churches that have traditionally been seen as the stalwarts of the American religious landscape: mainline Protestant churches. Theologians and Presbyterian ministers Mary McClintock Fulkerson and Marcia Mount Shoop invite us to acknowledge and address the wounds of race and privilege that continue to harm and diminish the life of the church. Using Eucharist as a template for both the church's blindness and for Christ's redemptive capacity, this book invites faith communities, especially white-dominant churches, into new ways of re-membering what it means to be the body of Christ. In a still racialized society, can the body of Christ truly acknowledge and dress the wounds of race and privilege? Re-membering Christ's broken and betrayed body may be just the healing path we need.
