Download or read book The Old Testament Explained and Applied written by Gareth Crossley and published by EP BOOKS. This book was released on 2002 with total page 866 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The importance of the Old Testament for present-day Christians cannot be overstated. From the earliest days of the Christian era these thirty-nine books have held a vital place. The new Christian converts on the Day of Pentecost, once baptized, committed themselves with great enthusiasm to the apostles' doctrine, fellowship with other believers, the breaking of bread and united prayer. The teaching of the apostles was composed of a number of elements: relating the teaching they received directly from the Lord Jesus Christ, bearing witness to the things concerning the Lord which they had seen and heard for themselves, and interpreting and applying the Old Testament Scriptures with specific reference to the Lord Jesus Christ. The apostles were at great pains to relate everything that Jesus said and did to the thirty-nine books of the Old Testament. The Scriptures, as composed at that time, were the firm foundation for understanding and explaining the ministry, life, suffering, death, resurrection, ascension and glorification of the Lord Jesus Christ. This was the doctrine, the teaching, of the apostles.

Download or read book THE REVEALING written by Edwin L. Woolsey and published by Author House. This book was released on 2014-04 with total page 351 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To the very end of Christ's ministry, there was a constant human need to know Him. Having already been warned about a plot to kill Jesus, a group of Christ's friends privately asked a troubling question concerning future events, "What shall be the sign of thy coming and of the end of the world?" (Matt. 24:3) Circumstances were rapidly spiraling out of control, and the disciples longed to understand what would happen next. In the last 2000 years, the same basic need for awareness has only intensified. Complex global developments seem almost beyond our ability to address. Akin to St. Paul's analogy of labor pains at birth, each new world crisis appears to occur faster and with greater severity than the one before! (1 Thes. 5:3) Today, people are genuinely hungry for the reality of intimately discovering who Jesus actually is. Like the early disciples, we have the same nagging desire to know. Haven't you felt this need in your own life? For that reason, the Revelation of Jesus Christ was divinely inspired and written by Apostle John. Spanning the entire circuit of Creation, the Apocalypse addresses the timeless question, "What shall be the sign of thy coming and of the end of the world?" Unlike any other book in the Bible, only the Revelation promises a special blessing to those individuals who explore its amazing prophetic secrets. (Rev. 1:3) However, without the necessary key to open human understanding, John's prophecies have remained closed. Until now! THE REVEALING is that KEY for unlocking the intricate mysteries of the Revelation of Jesus Christ in order for you to know "The Sign of Christ's Coming and the End of the World!"

Download or read book Blessed Broken Scared written by J Brian Pusateri and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2021-12-23 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Blessed, Broken, and Scared. What does that mean? We know that Jesus took bread, blessed it, broke it, and shared it with His friends saying, "This is my body, which will be given for you; do this in memory of me." The Last Supper challenges us to live in such a way that we actually become the sacred food of Jesus Christ for others as we share our lives with them. And that can be scary! Blessed, Broken, and Scared calls the reader to a conversion from living a scared life to living a shared life. It is in sharing our life with others that we find the healing and peace we truly seek. All people are wounded by the world and have areas of hidden brokenness in their life. This book offers hope, healing, and change as it explores the profound implications of God's mercy, forgiveness, and love. "Brian addresses some very important issues in a conversational style that invites you into his book. Let this book, in a "sea of purple," be a place for us to share and be blessed. This book will truly encourage us to be Eucharist for one another." Fr. Martin Schratz OFM Cap. Brian has been sharing his Blessed, Broken, and Scared retreats around the country for years. Now the message has been captured in this book. Here is what some past retreatants have had to say: "Brian opens himself to all and helped us see that our brokenness isn't a deterrent to God's love and healing. Our retreat was truly a special day." "Should be required for today's Christians and Catholics." "One of the best day retreats that I have attended in nearly 40 years! So much to reflect on and put into action." "I have been to many seminars, webinars, retreats and have been blessed to have read many great books, but I have to say...this retreat impacted my life as to learning more about God's will in my life than any other book, resource, event ever has! Thanks be to God!" Brian Pusateri is a Christian author and speaker. Brian felt his life was forever changed when God spoke to his heart while attending a retreat in 2011. With the God-inspired message of mercy and unconditional love, Brian has been impacting others all over the country and around the world with his weekly letters, talks, and retreats. Brian and his wife of 45 years, Mary Beth, live in, and love the Carolina mountains.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fully grasp how every part of Scripture fits together to point to and reveal the glory of Christ Jesus. From beginning to end, the Bible reveals the glory of Jesus. But for many Bible readers, it doesn't seem that simple. We're often unsure how the Bible's many stories, characters, events relate together and connect to Jesus. Some are tempted to force the pieces of the Bible together, making superficial jumps to him. Others give up trying to understand the Bible altogether. Christ from Beginning to End is written to help Christians understand just how the different stories and parts of Scripture fits together to reveal the glory of Christ Jesus. In Part 1, Wellum and Hunter reintroduce us to the Bible—what it is, how it comes to us, and what it's centrally about. Then, in Part 2, they walk from one side of the Bible's story to the other, carefully tracing its storyline from Genesis to Revelation. As readers see how our triune God's plan unfolds through his covenants, they will be equipped for a lifetime of seeing Christ's glory in Scripture. From this book, you'll learn how to: Read the Bible according to the three biblical contexts: the immediate context, the context of the unfolding story, and the context of the whole story centered in Christ. Recognize how different parts of the Bible connect together as part of a unified story. Embrace the story of the Bible as our own, to live this story out, and to share this story with our neighbors and the nations. You will also see the Bible's multi-layered story and how it is held together by the one plan of God to glorify himself in salvation. You'll come away with a greater awareness of our need as sinners, of the triune God in all of his grace, and of Jesus as the incarnate Son in all of his glory.

Download or read book The Revealing written by Gary L. Huffman and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-05-28 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The pillar and the cloud of Exodus will appear again, in the very last days over Zion. And the Church of Jesus Christ will be a vital part of this brilliant display. Few Christians comprehend the Christian's inheritance to partake of the Divine Nature. To withstand coming persecution and hardship, comprehending our destiny will be indispensable. The Revealing is riveting because it teaches how we must prepare ourselves spiritually for Christ's coming. It offers an inspiring, positive account of the wonderful provision God has made for His children. In short, The Revealing will impact your spiritual life as few books have. Through a detailed study of the Scripture and citing deep teaching from biblical scholars, the authors uncover multiple truths unfamiliar to even the most advanced students of the Bible: -Why is heaven not the believer's ultimate reward? -Why is the New Jerusalem a people and not just a place? -What is our surest motive to persevere through persecution? -Why do tribulations and trials bring us closer to glory? -How does the Hebrew Tabernacle prefigure New Testament teaching on justification, sanctification, and glorification? -What does the Feast of Tabernacles teach about the "afterlife?" -Does the ministry of the Church continue AFTER the Rapture? -Will we appear on the earth during the Great Tribulation? Authors Huffman and Woodward reveal that failing to fathom the riches of God's glory and ignoring the commandment to seek His glory undermines our quest to be "imagers of God." The promise of God's glory - our inheritance - will transform us now. Seemingly improbable, we obtain the glory of God in part when we follow the process and practice to apprehend it, while we focus on Christ and this "precious gift... to be partakers of the divine nature." (2 Peter 1:4) The Revealing unlocks one of the Bible's most vital truths through advancing a comprehensive argument for the pursuit of sanctification and the assurance of God endowing us with glory.

Download or read book Signs and Mysteries written by Mike Aquilina and published by Our Sunday Visitor. This book was released on 2008-08-04 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Imagine the dangerous life of an early Christian. You've embraced your newfound faith in Christ but fear the risk of persecution or death at the hands of the pagans living around you. Then a trusted friend tells you about some of Jesus' followers who secretly meet. He whispers into your ear, "Look for a fish carved in a paving stone" by a certain home on the Via Tiburtina. You smile in gratitude. Still today, modern society recognizes those Christian symbols that kept the early Christians safely connected: they appear on churches, bumper stickers, mugs -- even mints and stuffed animals. Yet we are often ignorant of the rich meaning of these symbols: their origins in Scripture, in ancient culture, and in the preaching of the Church Fathers. In this book, noted author Mike Aquilina conducts an intriguing and insightful tour of the symbols that expressed the life and devotion of the Church through the first four centuries of its existence. He explains how Christians freely borrowed pagan and Jewish symbols, giving them new, distinctly Christian meanings. Recover the zeal of our spiritual ancestors as you learn to read their symbolic language -- and discover the impact the symbols still have on your life today. More than a hundred illustrations, reproduced by artist Lea Marie Ravotti from the ancient originals, beautifully complement the text.
