Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Gospel Messenger and Primitive Pathway, Vol. 13: January, 1891 The messenger comes to us regular and we are delighted with it. We see nothing in it but what is calculated to comfort, edify and strengthen the children of God, except the subject of Fredes tination, and this Ought not to render any one unhappy, for none of us believe that God is the author of sin, neither do we believe that anything takes place by chance; but in some way best known to himself, He is connected with all the transactions of men in time, whether we are able to fully understand how and for what purpose or not, except His own glory, for which He has made all things. He hath made all things for himself, and then' for himself all things are and must to that one particular end nu failingly come. For the' Lord God or hosts hath sworn, saying, Surely as I have thought so shall it come to pass, and as I have purposed, so shall it stand. Surely he must have thought of all things, for He that is alwise could not but do so. 0, the depth of the riches, both of the Wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable are hisjudgments, and his ways past finding out; who hath recompensed to him, and it Shall be recompensed to him again; for of him, and through him, and to him are all things, to Whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen! It is certain that God well understands the depth of this prob lem, this ocean of mystery, and will guide all things to its appointed end, and will be glorified by all of his works, as well the least as the greatest. For he is God; and there is none else; he is God and there is none like him, declaring the end from the beginning - from ancient times-the things not yet done, saying My.counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure. He doeth his will in the army of hearen, and among the inhabitants of the earth. Thou wilt say, then, unto me, Why doth be yet find fault, for who bath resisted his will? Will be the question of some. Nay, but 0, man, who art thou that replieth against God! Shall the thing formed say to him that formed it, Why hath thou made me thus? Will be the answer of the apostle. The wickedness of the act of killing the Saviour was purely the wickedness of those who put him to death; the purpose to be obtained by it was purely God's. They meant one thing by it, God another. The robbers of Job meant one thing, 'god something else; Joseph's brethren meant what they did for evil, God meant it for good. So the people of to-day mean many things contrary to what God means by the same things. There is a work in all the works of time that is God's work, and another that is man's work; the part that God performs is good, the part man performs is evil. But we are not to do evil that good may come, but God often brings good out of evil, sweet out of bitter, light out of darkness, et cetera.

This book was released on 2000-08-15 with total page 580 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: National Book Award Finalist: “This man’s ideas may be the most influential, not to say controversial, of the second half of the twentieth century.”—Columbus Dispatch At the heart of this classic, seminal book is Julian Jaynes's still-controversial thesis that human consciousness did not begin far back in animal evolution but instead is a learned process that came about only three thousand years ago and is still developing. The implications of this revolutionary scientific paradigm extend into virtually every aspect of our psychology, our history and culture, our religion—and indeed our future. “Don’t be put off by the academic title of Julian Jaynes’s The Origin of Consciousness in the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind. Its prose is always lucid and often lyrical…he unfolds his case with the utmost intellectual rigor.”—The New York Times “When Julian Jaynes . . . speculates that until late in the twentieth millennium BC men had no consciousness but were automatically obeying the voices of the gods, we are astounded but compelled to follow this remarkable thesis.”—John Updike, The New Yorker “He is as startling as Freud was in The Interpretation of Dreams, and Jaynes is equally as adept at forcing a new view of known human behavior.”—American Journal of Psychiatry

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A page-turning novel that is also an exploration of the great philosophical concepts of Western thought, Jostein Gaarder's Sophie's World has fired the imagination of readers all over the world, with more than twenty million copies in print. One day fourteen-year-old Sophie Amundsen comes home from school to find in her mailbox two notes, with one question on each: "Who are you?" and "Where does the world come from?" From that irresistible beginning, Sophie becomes obsessed with questions that take her far beyond what she knows of her Norwegian village. Through those letters, she enrolls in a kind of correspondence course, covering Socrates to Sartre, with a mysterious philosopher, while receiving letters addressed to another girl. Who is Hilde? And why does her mail keep turning up? To unravel this riddle, Sophie must use the philosophy she is learning—but the truth turns out to be far more complicated than she could have imagined.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new edition of Systematic Theology by Wayne Grudem is one of the most important resources for helping you understand Scripture and grow as a Christian. The most widely used resource of the last 25 years in its area, Systematic Theology has been thoroughly revised and expanded for the first time while retaining the features that have made it the standard in its field: clear explanations, an emphasis on each doctrine's scriptural basis, and practical applications to daily life. With nearly 250 pages of new content and revisions, this new edition now includes the following distinctive features: Updated analysis of recent controversies within evangelical theology, including the eternal relationship between the Father and the Son in the Trinity, the role of women in the church, miraculous gifts of the Holy Spirit, and contemporary worship music. New discussion and critiques of recent theological controversies situated outside of traditional evangelical theology, such as open theism, the "new perspective on Paul," Molinism (or "middle knowledge"), "Free Grace" theology, and the preterist view of Christ's second coming. Completely revised chapter on the clarity of Scripture. Completely revised chapter on creation and evolution, including a longer critique of theistic evolution and an extensive discussion on the age of the earth. New discussion of how biblical inerrancy applies to some specific "problem verses" in the Gospels. Additional material explaining evangelical Protestant differences with Roman Catholicism, Protestant liberalism, and Mormonism. Completely updated bibliographies. All Scripture quotations updated from RSV to ESV. Updated section on contemporary worship music. Numerous other updates and corrections. Part of the brilliance of Systematic Theology has been its simplicity and ease of use. Each chapter follows the same structure: discussion of the doctrine being considered, an explanation of that doctrine's biblical support and possible objections, followed by personal application and key terms to know for personal growth. Chapters also include a Scripture memory passage, references to other literature on the topic, and suggested hymns and worship songs. If you think theology is hard to understand or boring, then this new edition of Systematic Theology will change your mind.
