Download or read book The Godly Rebellion written by Richard M. Golden and published by Chapel Hill : University of North Carolina Press. This book was released on 1981 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This intriguing study shows that a religious revolt, spurred by deep divisions within the church, followed the princely and parlementary rebellions of the French civil war known as the Fronde. The cures vied with the crown, the bishops, and the Jesuits for control of the parishes. In examining the Fronde, Golden demonstrates the connection between Janenism, Richerism, and ecclesiastical politics and how it shaped the rule of Louis XIV and the role of the cures in the French Revolution.

Download or read book The Rebel Christ written by Michael Coren and published by Canterbury Press. This book was released on 2022-11-30 with total page 141 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Once the darling of conservative Catholicism and evangelicalism, the outspoken broadcaster and journalist Michael Coren had what he terms as a profound conversion and began embracing the issues he had previously judged. It cost him his lucrative broadcasting career and made him the target of vitriol, but he found freedom in the radical and progressive nature of the gospel and is today its champion. In The Rebel Christ he explores what Jesus said about the pressing issues of his and our day. Jesus may not have mentioned sexuality, but welcomed outsiders and the marginalized; he never spoke of social security systems, but did criticize the wealthy and complacent and called for the poor to be protected; he didn’t side with the powerful but did condemn those who judged and exploited others and turned their eyes away from those in need and from the cry for justice. This was Jesus the rebel, Christ the radical, who turned the world upside down and who today demands that his followers do the same.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prophecy foretells the coming of an Antichrist, a powerful, charming but evil dictatorial leader who appears during a time of worldwide desperation and deprivation and provides a chaotic world with hope. His coming will not be the result of a gentle, bloodless coup or an antiseptic political evolution. It will be accomplished and accompanied by brutality and bloodshed on an unprecedented scale. This remarkable individual with supernatural diplomatic skill will dazzle a desperate generation and bring peace to a world staggering on the precipice of anarchy and annihilation. Hence, he will be lauded as history?'s greatest Peacebroker. The Antichrist, the one non-fictional personality portrayed in this book, according to the prophets, will come to power in a dead-to-truth world and most will flock to this remarkable man as the proverbial moths to the flame. They will be drawn to his warmth and light only to be destroyed by his fire.Using the actual biblically prophesied timeline as a plumb line this fictional account occurs just as the man of sin begins his conspiratorial assent to become an all-powerful world ruler. The story answers the oft posed question by many students of prophecy who read of his meteoric rise to power and ask, How could this happen Having spent the last 35 years as a Biblical preacher, teacher and researcher, Phil Arms remains true to both the tenets of the faith and the basic eschatological facts revealed in the Word of God.For Christians, books such as this stimulate faith in God?'s prophetic Word and encourages anticipation of that Blessed Hope. For those without Christ, books such as this, accompanied by the godly witness left by raptured believers, will be among the few pointers to Truth for those trapped in the tribulation holocaust. It will help them understand what is happening to their world and why and what to do to escape the wrath to come.

Download or read book Rebellion written by Kenneth John Marks and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2012-03 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using his strong background in the Scripture mixed with a complex and rich imagination, Kenneth John Marks sets out to tell a dramatic but biblically rooted account of evil's origin in the universe. He does this largely through children's perspectives, which adds a layer of wonder and innocence to the narration that contrasts effectively with some of the less-than-innocent characters and dramatic twists. What starts off as a simple tale deepens into a riveting story of evil versus good, Lucifer's followers against God's, which culminates in an unforgettable battle between Lucifer as a seven-headed dragon and the Destroyer that burns and pierces him. Readers will enjoy the author's skillful story telling and poetic prose, such as "the noonday sun reached with bright shining fingers." Even more importantly, many readers will see their faith and life choices mirrored in the characters, inspiring prayerful self-examination and reflection.

Download or read book God S Response to Man S Rebellion written by Jerry Waite and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2010-12-01 with total page 151 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It would seem that God still treats nations that have known Him and rebelled against Him like He did Israel in the past. England sent missionaries all over the world, but when their church buildings were empty and they no longer worshipped God through Jesus Christ, they lost control of their colonies and have become bankrupt. Today the US seeks to ban the use of Gods name even in prayer. We are no longer looked on as a peace giving nation. This book is a summary of Old Testament history that I taught teenagers many years. It is from the perspective of one trained as a scientist who believes Gods Word is true. I have applied my conclusions from my paper The Census of Israelite Men in the Exodus from Egypt, Vetus Testamentum 60, no.3, 2010. My warning is to escape Gods penalty for rebellion against Him.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rebellion is abhorred by rulers and Christians and perhaps, everyone, despite the fact that they are all engaged in it, under different guises. Rebellion is an inevitable route God meant for man to arrive the palace of relevance, recognition and respect. Individual mannerisms might differ but all recognized and relevant individuals who have ever lived are rebels or are engaged in rebellion in one form or the other at different times of their lives.
