Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Langan (philosophy, U. of Toronto) examines the history of the Catholic Church and the origins of its teachings since the Church's conception. Although committed to the Catholic religion, he does not obscure the Church's failings as he lays out the fundamentals of the faith. He provides insights into the great Christological councils, discusses the differences in the spiritualities of East and West, and portrays the crucial roles that the pope and bishops played during the Middle Ages. Incorporating the thought of Augustine, Acquinas, and medieval Catholicism, he traces the rise and decline of Christian Europe and the issues raised by reform.

Download or read book The Late Great Planet Earth written by Hal Lindsey and published by Zondervan. This book was released on 2016-10-11 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The impact of The Late Great Planet Earth cannot be overstated. The New York Times called it the "no. 1 non-fiction bestseller of the decade." For Christians and non-Christians of the 1970s, Hal Lindsey's blockbuster served as a wake-up call on events soon to come and events already unfolding -- all leading up to the greatest event of all: the return of Jesus Christ. The years since have confirmed Lindsey's insights into what biblical prophecy says about the times we live in. Whether you're a church-going believer or someone who wouldn't darken the door of a Christian institution, the Bible has much to tell you about the imminent future of this planet. In the midst of an out-of-control generation, it reveals a grand design that's unfolding exactly according to plan. The rebirth of Israel. The threat of war in the Middle East. An increase in natural catastrophes. The revival of Satanism and witchcraft. These and other signs, foreseen by prophets from Moses to Jesus, portend the coming of an antichrist . . . of a war which will bring humanity to the brink of destruction . . . and of incredible deliverance for a desperate, dying planet.

Download or read book Churchism in the Church Age written by Bill Young and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2018-09-26 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since 70 AD, our so-called Christian forefathers have set us on a course that has only led us further and further away from understanding of the Words from heaven by promoting a false religion known as "The Church Age," which I refer to as "Churchism." This Church Age did not begin until about 325 AD and it dominated the Christian thinking for some 1,200 years before the Protestants broke away from it about five hundred years ago. It was the "Catholic Church" who created the Church Age and the world has been drawn into believing in this "ghost religion" that was never real or legitimate. It was not created from reading and understanding the Words from heaven. "So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God" (Rom. 10:17, 18). Searching the Words from heaven is our duty to God as well as to ourselves and he will bless who he will bless with understanding. But there are many who will not be so blessed, "Unto you (Jesus's disciples) it is given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God: but unto them that are without, all things are done in parables" (Mark 4:11). The "Church-Age believers" are those who are "without" and for 1,700 years they have remained without, yet the world continues to accept their words as Gospel. There are two ways to know God, one is to see, with an open mind, his Creation in the world and universe, to be attentive to its magnificent diversity and harmony and the other is through his Words that he has written for us. The early American Indian only had the first way of knowing God until the new settlers came to America and introduced Churchism's "church salvation." Now both the Indian as well as all the civilized earth have been following a religion which became the worlds' greatest deception and hoax.
Download or read book The Catholic Church written by Walter Kasper and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2015-02-26 with total page 482 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Walter Kasper is already well-known and loved throughout the English-speaking world. He has held high office in the Vatican but until his recent retirement has felt constrained from publishing what he really thinks and his vision of the Church for the future. Kasper brings to conclusion a project that has been pursued for years, as it joins together his greatest monographs on the subject of God's teaching and Christology. The book covers three main topics: Nature, Reality and the Mission of the Church. The introductory section is autobiographical and the reader can see Kasper's personal and theological way in to and with the Church. He develops the actual ecclesiological exegesis - for Kasper the representation of the Being of the Church is not about empirical description, but rather a testimony of being. He emphasizes that nobody is able to apply the stereotypical and idealistic image of the heavens to the critical acknowledgement of the church's present. The program of the Church is ultimately not self-directed but rather remains oriented towards the finalization of the arrival of the kingdom of God and the spiritual healing of the human race.
