Download or read book The God of Resurrection written by Watchman Nee and published by Living Stream Ministry. This book was released on 2024-08-27 with total page 10 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This booklet begins by asking questions that have troubled human beings throughout history: “Why should man, who has been created by God, be subject to suffering throughout the whole course of his life? Why should men still continue to suffer after they become children of God? And why should men’s sufferings increase with the increase of their devotion to God?” The answer to these questions lies in seeing the distinction between two titles of God, the living God and the God of resurrection, and seeing their relationship to God’s eternal purpose. The accomplishment of God’s purpose involves our having “an experiential knowledge of God not only as the living God but also as the God of resurrection.”
Download or read book Practicing the Presence of the Living God written by Jean Maalouf and published by ICS Publications. This book was released on 2010 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book Practicing the Presence of the Living God intends to be a guide for a spiritual journey. It can be used in a retreat center, at home, or at work when you are able to secure a few moments of quiet solitude and silence. It is structured around seven days - the number of days normally used for a spiritual retreat. However, the seven days can be reduced to a weekend if this is all the time you can afford. It can also be spread to a much longer time if your circumstances do not allow you to have this amount of hours at the same time. All that you need is your total self. God is totally present to you and you should be totally present to God also. It is based on Brother Lawrence of the Resurrection's little book The Practice of the Presence of God. More Information The content of Brother Lawrence's book encompasses a lifelong application that is life-changing. Its message is transformative in its utmost clarity and simplicity because it reveals the heart and soul of everyone's life purpose and work - to live joyfully in the presence of God no matter what our circumstances are. In his book, Brother Lawrence reveals a very ordinary life that most of us would not really desire, and yet as he fulfilled his everyday duties in the midst of the most mundane and tedious tasks, he learned to live the happiest and most rewarding life. With his gracious humility, "he thought...only of doing little things for the love of God since he was not capable of doing great things." Indeed, he modeled a life lived in the glory of God's love, peace, and joy. No wonder his book was called a "little spiritual classic," a "devotional masterpiece," an "unparalleled classic," and a book "relevant and timeless." Jean Maalouf in his thorough knowledge of Brother Lawrence's teachings becomes an exceptional guide for a retreat with Brother Lawrence. ABOUT THE AUTHOR Jean Maalouf has two doctorates from Paris-Sorbonne University and L'Institut Catholique de Paris. He is the author and editor of more than twenty-five books that include the bestseller, Experiencing Jesus with Mother Teresa, and the three books on prayer: The Healing Power of Prayer, I Can Tell God Anything: Living Prayer, and Bold Prayers from the Heart. He also wrote numerous articles on spiritual, educational, psychological, philosophical, cultural, and social issues, as well as contributed to the Encyclopedia of Catholic Social Thought, Social Science, and Social Policy. He is a member of several associations that include the Fellowship of Catholic Scholars, the American Academy of Religion, the Society of Christian Philosophers, and Contemplative Outreach: Centering Prayer.

Download or read book Quest for the Living God written by Elizabeth A. Johnson and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2011-07-21 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Since the middle of the twentieth century,' writes Elizabeth Johnson, 'there has been a renaissance of new insights into God in the Christian tradition. On different continents, under pressure from historical events and social conditions, people of faith have glimpsed the living God in fresh ways. It is not that a wholly different God is discovered from the One believed in by previous generations. Christian faith does not believe in a new God but, finding itself in new situations, seeks the presence of God there. Aspects long-forgotten are brought into new relationships with current events, and the depths of divine compassion are appreciated in ways not previously imagined.' This book sets out the fruit of these discoveries. The first chapter describes Johnson's point of departure and the rules of engagement, with each succeeding chapter distilling a discrete idea of God. Featured are transcendental, political, liberation, feminist, black, Hispanic, interreligious, and ecological theologies, ending with the particular Christian idea of the one God as Trinity.

Download or read book Faith in the Living God 2nd Edition written by John Polkinghorne and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2019-04-12 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book John Polkinghorne and Michael Welker explain how they understand faith in the living God. Between them, they offer a “binocular vision from [their] twin perspectives to yield helpful insight in relation to the important issues.” Part of the fascination of this book is how two people with such different backgrounds approach central theological questions relating to the faith they both share. Their concerns are truth rather than polemics, reliability rather than simple certainty. They seek to anchor their thought in concrete particulars rather than abstract generalizations. They ask the questions that trouble the inquiring mind, and meet head-on the challenge as well as the reassurances of belief. This second edition provides a new Preface and updated bibliographies.
Download or read book Jesus Christ written by Kendrick D. Slang and published by . This book was released on 2013-11 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jesus Christ: The Son of the Living God Jesus Christ: The Son of the Living God is the story of the birth, death, burial, resurrection and ascension of Jesus Christ into Heaven, his life and times, and his miracles as the true Son of the Living God. But the book, by Deacon Kendrick D. Slang of the Oneonta Baptist Church in Louisiana, is more than a dry recitation of biblical facts. Slang introduces readers to Jesus Christ as a three-dimensional figure. Readers will get to know a living, breathing human: who Jesus truly was, what his life and death means, and what Jesus true role is in bringing us back to God the Father. Jesus Christ: The Son of the Living God not only recounts the life of Jesus, but provides a primer on the fall of Man, how we came to be sinners and how our knowledge of and acceptance of Jesus as the Lord and Savior is our path back to God.
