Download or read book The Five Commandments of Jesus written by Patrick J. Amer and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2009-09 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In The Five Commandments of Jesus: A New Approach to Christianity, Patrick Amer presents to the ordinary Christian and the theologian alike his new, refreshing, and clear approach to the mission and meaning of Jesus of Nazareth. Amer identifies the five commandments of Jesus as central within the recorded ethical teachings of Jesus. These five commandments show the continued relevance and importance of Jesus in expressing God's will and plan for humankind. The book is clearly written and readily accessible to all readers. Discussion groups across denominations will find that this book meets each reader at the exact point at which we all find ourselves today." Roger Haight, S. J., Union Theological Seminary In this book, Patrick Amer describes his discovery of the five commandments of Jesus. He shows that the commandments are not a random selection of commands. They are an integrated and focused attack on humanity's most deeply embedded anti-social behaviors, those placed there by natural selection. He shows that these behaviors were in ancient times absorbed into humanity's public institutions, and they are still there. The kingdom of God is the community of men and women who live by the five commandments of Jesus, applying them in their personal lives and to public institutions as well. This book examines each commandment to show how it is to be practiced in one's personal life and how it is to be applied to public institutions. By practicing the five commandments of Jesus, the followers of Jesus participate in his redeeming mission and with him save the world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Jean Louis Ska's Introduzione alla lettura del Pentateuco was first published in Italy, it was quickly hailed as the most attractive and usable introduction to the Pentateuch to appear in modern times. Because of its strengths, it was soon translated into French. The English translation published by Eisenbrauns has been completely reviewed and updated (including the bibliography) by Ska. Among the book's many strengths are its close attention to the ways in which modern cultural history has affected Pentateuchal interpretation, attention to providing the kinds of examples that are helpful to students, presentation of a good balance between the history of interpretation and the data of the text, and the clarity of Ska's writing.

Download or read book Commandments of Jesus written by Norman H Drummond and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2021-11-05 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Before Jesus ascended to heaven, He gave His last instructions, telling us to “go make disciples” and “teach them to observe all things I have commanded you.” But what are the commands of Jesus? Norman H. Drummond, who has served in a variety of Christian ministries over more than forty-five years, tackles that important question. As you read, learn how to: • identify the commands of Jesus found in the four gospels; • recognize the difference between which of Jesuses words are commands and which are important, precious, amazing, and awesome, but not commandments; • “make disciples” by clearly teaching new believers “all things I have commanded you.” The commandments of Jesus were not handed to us as a concise list like the one Moses received on Mount Sinai. However, His commandments are recorded for us in scripture, and He expects us to obey them. Studying these commandments reveal a major difference between the commandments given to Moses and those given by Jesus. They are as different as “Thou shalt not ...” and “If you love me ...” and they are eternal truth.

Download or read book Words of Life written by Adam Hamilton and published by Convergent Books. This book was released on 2020-12-29 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What if the Ten Commandments were not just a set of ancient rules, but a guide to experiencing the good life today? “Adam Hamilton is a teacher of the highest order, able to bridge the gap between very old divine teaching and very current human reality.”—Barbara Brown Taylor, author of Always a Guest: Speaking of Faith Far from Home Nearly everyone has heard of the Ten Commandments, the list of “thou-shalt-nots” found in the Bible. Jesus saw these commandments not as onerous burdens, but as guideposts to help us experience a good and beautiful life. These ten ancient “words” were given to us by a loving God who longed to set safe boundaries, create order out of chaos, help communities live peacefully, and protect us—often from ourselves. In this book of Scripture and inspiration, bestselling author Adam Hamilton brings modern eyes to the most important set of ethics in history. He considers the commandments in their historical context, considering the meaning of each commandment in Hebrew, unpacking how Jesus reinterpreted them, and showing how every thou-shalt-not was intended to point to a life-giving “thou shalt.” He also explores how the latest research in science and psychology illuminates these commandments, rightly understood, as a way of ordering one's life beautifully in the present day. In a culture marked by workaholism, materialism, and social media-driven envy, God has given us a time-tested path that leads to gratitude, confidence, and peace. A landmark work from one of our most trusted biblical thinkers, Words of Life is an inspiring, thought-provoking read for anyone seeking to live a meaningful and joyful life.
