Download or read book Head Covering written by Jeremy Gardiner and published by . This book was released on 2016-11-12 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have you ever wondered why some women cover their heads in church, while men remove their hats? Have you thought about what this practice means and where it came from? It's not something that was picked up from the surrounding culture. Instead, it comes directly from 1 Corinthians 11 (in the Bible) where this practice is explained in surprising depth. In fifteen consecutive verses, the Apostle Paul explains and defends the practice of head covering. He appeals to apostolic tradition, to the created roles of men and women, to angels, to nature, and to the church's exclusive position on this topic. Though head covering was practiced by the majority of Christians throughout Church history, it is now practiced only by a small minority. However, today many Christians are rediscovering this ancient practice, fueling a resurgence of head covering during church gatherings. From the founder of the Head Covering Movement comes "Head Covering: A Forgotten Christian Practice for Modern Times." In this book, Jeremy Gardiner will walk you through the Scriptures so you will see how this symbol beautifully depicts the created differences between men and women. You'll hear the history of head covering, showing that it wasn't until the feminist revolution that this practice fell out of favor in the Western church. The most popular objections (the cultural view, the long hair view, and charges of legalism) are all answered in-depth. Finally, the book addresses practical questions regarding how this is to be carried out. For too long, head covering has been neglected and stereotyped. Unfair associations with cults, legalism, unsophisticated theology, and frumpiness have turned many people off. We want to move past these stereotypes and into Scripture-because contrary to those views, head covering is biblical, beautiful, and relevant. This is not some new strange doctrine. This is a practice with an early and long history that is firmly based in the Bible. The rejection of this symbol is new, setting modern generations apart from the majority of believers throughout Church history. It's time we changed that. Endorsements Jeremy Gardiner has written a thoughtful and helpful argument from Scripture and church history for women to cover their heads in worship. This book deserves a fair hearing from all who desire to obey God's Word in whatever it teaches. -Dr. Joel Beeke, president of Puritan Reformed Theological Seminary Jeremy Gardiner's book gently, respectfully, and accurately addresses all of the questions I had as I grappled with the passage in 1 Corinthians 11 on head covering. I appreciate his careful and thorough exegesis of the passage and his willingness to tackle all of the current objections and alternate views on the subject. I wish I had this resource decades ago. -April Cassidy, author of The Peaceful Wife Jeremy Gardiner has done the church good service in calling us back to the obedience of God's Word our parents and grandparents rejected a century ago. Gardiner gives a clear explanation of the Scriptural command, going on to treat with accuracy and kindness the many objections moderns have raised. -Tim Bayly, former executive director of The Council on Biblical Manhood & Womanhood I started wearing a head covering (in a church that does not wear head coverings) a few years ago. I felt challenged to put the word of God above the word of man at every turn, and to resist relativizing its teachings according to my own culture - even my Christian culture. I commend the courage of Jeremy Gardiner in standing for the whole counsel of God. -Andrée Seu Peterson, senior writer at WORLD Magazine Jeremy has done a great service for the Body of Christ by helping to resurrect the LORD's commands for His own worship. May the LORD forgive us for thinking we know better. -Dr. Carlton C. McLeod, senior pastor of CRC Chesapeake
Download or read book Covered Glory Condensed Edition written by David Phillips and published by David Phillips. This book was released on 2015-03-11 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1 Corinthians 11, the Apostle Paul provides important instructions about two symbolic practices within Christianity. The most well-known of these practices is the Lord's Supper, found in the second half of 1 Corinthians 11. However, in the first half of the same chapter, Paul teaches about the relationships between God and His people. He explains that these relationships -- and the glory of the Lord -- are symbolically represented when men and women cover (or uncover) their heads during times of prayer. God uses Scripture to provide His good direction in the lives of His people – but how should believers today respond to this passage? What does it take to gain a well-grounded understanding of the practice that Paul is discussing? And why did it matter to God whether or not Christian women covered their heads when they prayed? This book carefully navigates these questions by considering the relevant details of both the New Testament passage and First Century Corinthian culture. ======= This book is a companion volume to the book, "Headcovering Throughout Christian History."

Book excerpt: This book deals with a much neglected portion of God's Word which looks at the vitally important themes of headship and the glory of God. The author has not avoided issues and has included thorough research both from Church history and the original language of the New Testament. The section dealing with the objections to the head covering reveals the desperate attempts that have been made in recent times to avoid the clear implications of the 1 Corinthians 11 passage. How we need a return to that which is written in Scripture, instead of being influenced by the bankrupt culture of the day. - Mike Attwood (Springfield, MO).
Download or read book The Head Covering written by Tommy Rodriguez and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-11-22 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THIS SINGLE-PERSPECTIVE, ONENESS THEOLOGICAL Thesis was written with the sole intent of providing revelation, understanding, and clarity to all students of the Bible as well as to all disciples of Jesus Christ, with regard to an extremely misunderstood subject matter-the Head Covering. Now, in achieving this objective, I have chosen to utilize an in-depth approach of the Word of God, along with reliable non-Biblical sources. In short, I have provided several Scriptures that ought to aid in the attainment of complete understanding of this grossly misunderstood and "questionable" (to some Oneness organizations) subject matter. I would like to submit the following thesis as the central assertion of this theological paper: The doctrinal stand that the veil is the Head Covering, as adhered to by some Oneness Christian denominations, appears to be laden with numerous Scriptural inconsistencies, leading to, unfortunately stated, Logical Fallacy. Plainly stated, upon thorough and proper examination of Scripture, this non-Biblical viewpoint goes contrary to sound Biblical teaching. The general presupposition, then, rests solely upon the following Claim: What is presented to you within this Single-perspective, Oneness Theological Argument, not only offers the most complete explanation of the Head Covering, but it also provides the most solid Evidence as to why this Theological Argument is the best persuasive Oneness Christian Doctrinal viewpoint. In short, it presents a sound Biblical, theological, contextual, hermeneutical, exegetical, and historical presentation of the Head Covering! With this said, this Single-perspective, Oneness Theological Argument will be presented from a purely Apostolic Doctrinal perspective-God's perspective! Now, contrary to standard expository writing guidelines, it is my professional opinion that this has occurred due to a lack of Biblical understanding as well as faulty Biblical research on the part of our 20th & 21st-Century church patriarchs-causing, sadly enough, improper hermeneutics and exegesis of true Apostolic Doctrinal teaching regarding the Biblical Head Covering. With this said, I ask that you sincerely suspend your denominational bias (including your denominational tradition), personal opinion, as well as your theological philosophy and judge the following theological paper on the merits of the presented sound Biblical Argument. In addition, I trust that you will give due diligence to the study of this book, having a clear mind, a receptive heart, an aligned spirit, along with an open Bible! Finally, as you read through this Single-perspective, Oneness Theological Argument, I ask that you sincerely pray-seeking after The Wisdom of God-asking God to unveil (no pun intended) His Truth; to provide complete understanding of this profound subject matter; and, to reveal the spiritual significance of the hair of the woman as being the Biblical Head Covering, as is clearly described and unarguably affirmed within I Corinthians 11:1-16.

Download or read book The Head Covering Ordinance written by Dean Holzer and published by . This book was released on 2018-05-24 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this small book is to help God's people have a correct understanding of Paul's teaching concerning the head covering ordinance found in 1 Corinthians 11:2-16. In our modern day western world, few passages are as controversial both inside and outside of the Church. Such teaching as is found in this passage is passionately railed against by the radical secularists of the day, and explained away by most who now fill the pulpits of this land. There is a great need for the biblical ordinance of head covering to be restored in true, Bible-believing local churches. While many healthy congregations have faithfully maintained this apostolic tradition, and while other sound believers have returned to the practice of this ordinance, there is still a great need for many in the modern Church to repent and return to the clear teaching of Scripture concerning this matter. May this book be used for this purpose and ultimately for the glory of God.

Download or read book Weekday Eucharistic Propers written by Church Publishing Incorporated and published by Church Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2017-01-09 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the section entitled “Concerning the Service of the Church,” the Book of Common Prayer identifies the normative services of the Episcopal Church: The Holy Eucharist, the principal act of Christian worship on the Lord’s Day and other major Feasts, and Daily Morning and Evening Prayer, as set forth in this book, are the regular services appointed for public worship in the Church. (BCP, 13) Eucharistic propers (collects, Scripture readings, and proper prefaces) are provided in the Book of Common Prayer for the days when the Eucharist is the principal service. As celebration of the Eucharist has become more frequent, many congregations and other communities of faith now celebrate weekday Eucharists on days for which the Prayer Book does not assign propers. To facilitate the use of these authorized options, this resource contains weekday propers for the seasons of the Church Year (the temporal cycle), the Common of Saints (the sanctoral cycle), and Various Occasions from the Prayer Book and from resources authorized since the adoption of the Prayer Book. The propers in this resource are grouped into three sections by type for the temporal cycle, the sanctoral cycle, and various occasions.

Download or read book Practical Theology written by Richard R. Osmer and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2008-07-02 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every church congregation encounters challenging situations, some the same the world over, and others specific to each church. Richard Osmer here seeks to teach congregational leaders -- including, but not limited to, clergy -- the requisite knowledge and skills to meet such situations with sensitivity and creativity. Osmer develops a framework for practical theological interpretation in congregations by focusing on four key questions: What is going on in a given context? Why is this going on? What ought to be going on? and How might the leader shape the context to better embody Christian witness and mission? The book is unique in its attention to interdisciplinary issues and the ways that theological reflection is grounded in the spirituality of leaders. Useful, accessible, and lively -- with lots of specific examples and case studies -- Osmer's Practical Theology effectively equips congregational leaders to guide their communities with theological integrity.
