Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Revelation of the Risen Lord At the same time a patient endeavour to enter into the meaning of the several recorded incidents brings out the absolute originality and the prevailing power Of the Truth which they combine to make known. The idea Of the Resur rection was a new thing; and it is seen to pro duce the effects of a new force. The Fact Of the Resurrection as thus set before us explains the Life Of the Church; and the Fact itself, or the belief in the Fact, is not explicable by any antecedent conditions apart from its truth. A careful study Of the evan gelio records shews that there were no elements present in the society of the believers to produce such an idea as they slowly realised. There was no enthusiastic hope to create visions; still less to create visions which involved the sacrifice Of cherished expectations. Everywhere it appears that a new thought is kindled by the successive manifestations Of the Lord, for which earlier be lief Offered a sufficient foundation but no more. In this connexion the remarkable limitation Of the manifestations Of the Risen Lord must be noticed. When'the lesson of the new Life wasonce given it was not repeated. The revelation to St Paul, the revelation of 'jesus' as 'the Son Of God', completes the whole series. The visions Of St Stephen and St John were Of a different order.

Download or read book Revelation of Jesus Christ written by Margaret Barker and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2000-11-02 with total page 462 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new and transforming approach to the Book of Revelation. Margaret Barker bases her study on a fresh reading of the primary sources. As an Old Testament scholar, she can read Revelation as Hebrew prophecy - ancient temple oracles which inspired Jesus and his own prophecies, and influenced the whole Jerusalem Church. Jerusalem was waiting for their Great High Priest to return and complete the Atonement at the end of the Tenth Jubilee. This expectation fuelled the revolt against Rome. Josephus, who deserted to Rome, was the false prophet. John, who escaped to Patmos, compiled Revelation as a record of the first generation. In the future, he taught, the Lord would return to his people in the Eucharist.This work illuminates the formative years of Christianity, in the social, religious and political situation of mid-first-century Palestine, in a quite remarkable way. It will have profound implications for the understanding of Christian origins and the development of Christian liturgy.

Download or read book The Book of Revelation written by Earl Thames and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2014-08-12 with total page 163 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Revelation is about the resurrected Christ, His church, and the world. More than any other prophetic book of the Bible, the prophecies of Revelation are presented in symbolic form; that is, pictures, rather than words, are used to convey the message. This is why this book is somewhat difficult to understand--the pictures have to be interpreted. These amazing, symbolic pictures, like the Parables, both reveal and conceal. Thus the book of the Revelation is not so clear that everyone can see the meaning and understand it immediately. But, as will be discovered, the pictures have an ascertainable meaning, a meaning which is based on the previous books of the Bible. It should be mentioned at the outset that some pictures have more than one meaning--that is, they are composite. Where this is so, all the meanings are valid and must be held together. Another remarkable fact must be stated: Unlike any other book of the Bible, Revelation, in an amazing way, sums up all that has gone before, in both Old and New Testaments. In other words, it sums up all the other books of the Bible! Revelation is, in truth, the final book of the Bible, and so every thread which runs through the Scriptures is not only picked up but tied into a final knot in this amazing book.

Download or read book What Jesus Learned from Women written by James F. McGrath and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2021-02-26 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dehumanization has led to serious misinterpretation of the Gospels. On the one hand, Christians have often made Jesus so much more than human that it seemed inappropriate to ask about the influence other human beings had on him, male or female. On the other hand, women have been treated as less than fully human, their names omitted from stories and their voices and influence on Jesus neglected. When we ask the question this book does, what Jesus learned from women, puzzling questions that have frustrated readers of the Gospels throughout history suddenly find solutions. Weaving cutting edge biblical scholarship together with an element of historical fiction and a knack for writing for a general audience, James McGrath makes the stories of women in the New Testament come alive, and sheds fresh light on the figure of Jesus as well. This book is a must read for scholars, students, and anyone else interested in Jesus and/or in the role of ancient women in the context of their times.

Download or read book The Revelation of Jesus Christ written by Stephen Kaung and published by Christian Fellowship Publishers. This book was released on with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book of revelation is the last of the sixty-six books of the Bible. As such, it is the concluding word of God and therefore occupies a special position. Whereas a blessing is attached to its reading, a curse is pronounced against anyone adding to its text—thus reflecting how very important is this book of God's word. The content of this present work, which will be two volumes in length, comprises the text of what were two separate series of messages on Revelation spoken by the author in, respectively, the year 2007 and back during the 1950s. After these many years, and inasmuch as we sense the return of the Lord Jesus to be increasingly imminent, we believe that there is a need to make these spoken words available in print in order that many more of God's people may receive the promised blessing. It is our prayer that all who shall read this book will receive God's blessing in their being better prepared for the imminent return to the earth of our blessed Lord Jesus Christ.
