This book was released on 2016-09-14 with total page 580 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of the Church of God During the Period of Revelation I have been encouraged by the favorable opinion expressed both by ministers and private members of the Church to whom the character of the work has been explained. These last - for whom I have specially written - have been pleased to say, that if successfully executed, it would prove such a History as would be particularly profitable to them. It would indeed be doing good service to prepare an acceptable and useful History of the Church for the mass Of the people Of God; and he who is enabled to ac complish that work should esteem it a high honor graciously con ferred upon him. Our Ecclesiastical Historians are read only to a very limited extent by our Church members; consequently but a few are familiar with the details of Church History. The importance of such knowledge to them no one can for a moment question. But it is looked upon as a department above their line Of reading and study, and more properly belonging to learned Doctors of Divin ity, and to accomplished scholars. We may go further and say without offence, that many ministers, even, pay but little attention to this great subject. The venerable Dr. Miller, Of Princeton, used to Observe to our class, that a minister who was a good Church Historian, would never be at a loss for a Sermon or a Lecture. When certain controversies arise in the Church, for the time being the Historians are much sought after: but when the battle is over, the armor is returned, and the books are closed like Old arsenals.

The Greek term denotes an unveiling or uncovering—thus, a revelation." "Here is the key to understanding the book. Jesus alone can unlock the meaning of its symbols, visions and descriptions...Christ reveals its meaning. He unlocks its seals. But how does He do it?" "Most of Revelation—about two thirds of its content—is devoted to the seventh seal. The contents of the first six seals are found in chapter 6 alone." "How will the two witnesses and their message be received?" "The book of Revelation reveals, from more than one perspective, the emergence of this vast end-time empire governed from a great city God labels “Babylon the great”, the reference here being to Rome." "Jesus Christ will return to establish that Kingdom on earth (the Kingdom of God) at His second coming, at last bringing the peace mankind has always longed for but never achieved."

Download or read book Revelation as History written by Rolf Rendtorff and published by New York : Macmillan. This book was released on 1968 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: David Granskou's translation into English of Revelation as History makes available to the English-speaking world for the first time one of the controversial works of modern theology. In it, a group of young German theologians, led by Wolfhart Pannenbrg of Mainz University, propose a reinterpretation of the concept of revelation--that is directed against both the Barthian and the Bultmannian understanding of the word of God as the basis of theology. Bultmann, who is skeptical of the historic character of Christian revelation, holds that the divine will is known only through God's word as contained in Scripture. Barth strongly emphasizes the uniqueness of God's revelation in Christ. Pannenberg and his group hold as limited these authoritarian ideas of the divine word and of the obedience it calls for, and argue instead that all of history is an indirect revelation of God's existence. The idea of the divine word and of the obedience it calls for, and argue instead that all of history is an indirect revelation of God's existence. The idea of the divine word is not excluded in their reinterpretation, but it is reinstituted to a more modest and subordinate role within the context of revelation as history. Pannenberg first reviews the modern history of the concept of revelation, introduces the theme of the book, and constructs the framework of the presentation. The subsequent exegetical investigations by Rolf Rendtorff and Ulrich Wilkens argue the evidence for the case in the Israelite and primitive Christian testimonies of faith expressed in the Old and New Testaments. Pannenberg then fully states the new interpretation of revelation as history, and Trutz Rendtorff concludes with an exploration of the problems created by this point of view when applied to the church. Revelation as History represents a significant attempt to resolve the conflicting positions of the existential and historical schools of thought on the theological issue of revelation--one that rejects the authoritarian style of theological thought in favor of an open rationality combined with a concern for the substance of the Christian tradition. -Publisher

Download or read book The Little Book of Revelation written by Eli of Kittim and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2013-02 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a fascinating study in search of the real Jesus. The author concludes that scripture is essentially a collection of prophecies, not a record of past events. Jesus did not say, "Blessed is he who heeds the words of the history of this book," but rather "Blessed is he who heeds the words of the prophecy of this book." Thus, the current tenets of Christianity with regard to the origin and advent of Jesus are based on fundamental misconceptions. The book´s argument is that Christ´s visitation has not yet occurred in the world of time, since it is a future event, and that his origin will be derived from the Greeks, not the Jews, when he does appear.
