Download or read book The Wedding the Wine the Water written by Mary Billings and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2019-04-22 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wedding traditions can change dramatically from culture to culture, from place to place, and from time to time. Yet in the Bible we can discover both a symbolism and a prophetic line that can take us from Old Testament to New Testament—from ancient Jewish culture and traditions to the burgeoning good news of Christ’s gospel—and all of this can be found through the wedding ceremony and covenant. The Wedding, the Wine, and the Water weaves together a tapestry of ancient Jewish wedding traditions and the gospel, exploring the symbolism of wine and water that God uses to reveal his plan to pursue us with a tenacious love through his Son, Jesus. Author Mary T. Billings explains how the tradition of the wine, ever present in the ancient traditions, is used to ceremonially invite and covenant the bride to the groom—something that is echoed in the New Testament gospel as Christ’s invitation to us, his bride. While wedding traditions can change, God’s wedding covenant with his bride is immutable and forever. This is a love story that began before we were even born, and it is one that will last for eternity. By connecting the elements and symbols of this marriage from the Old Testament through to the New Testament, we can be drawn into a more intimate relationship with Christ.
Download or read book Water to Wine written by Brian Zahnd and published by . This book was released on 2016-01-04 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why would the pastor of a large and successful church risk everything in a quest to find a richer, deeper, fuller Christianity? In Water To Wine Brian Zahnd tells his story of disenchantment with pop Christianity and his search for a more substantive faith. "I was halfway to ninety-midway through life-and I had reached a full-blown crisis. Call it garden variety mid-life crisis if you want, but it was something more. You might say it was a theological crisis, though that makes it sound too cerebral. The unease I felt came from a deeper place than a mental file labeled "theology." I was wrestling with the uneasy feeling that the faith I had built my life around was somehow deficient. Not wrong, but lacking. It seemed watery, weak. In my most honest moments I couldn't help but notice that the faith I knew seemed to lack the kind of robust authenticity that made Jesus so fascinating. And I had always been utterly fascinated by Jesus. What I knew was that the Jesus I believed in warranted a better Christianity than what I was familiar with. I was in Cana and the wine had run out. I needed Jesus to perform a miracle." -Water To Wine

Download or read book Jesus the Bridegroom written by Brant Pitre and published by Image. This book was released on 2018-02-13 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The bestselling follow-up to Jesus and the Jewish Roots of the Eucharist. Includes a reader's guide and an excerpt from Pitre's The Case for Jesus. In Jesus the Bridegroom, Brant Pitre once again taps into the wells of Jewish Scripture and tradition, and unlocks the secrets of what is arguably the most well-known symbol of the Christian faith: the cross of Christ. In this thrilling exploration, Pitre shows how the suffering and death of Jesus was far more than a tragic Roman execution. Instead, the Passion of Christ was the fulfillment of ancient Jewish prophecies of a wedding, when the God of the universe would wed himself to humankind in an everlasting nuptial covenant. To be sure, most Christians are familiar with the apostle Paul’s teaching that Christ is the ‘Bridegroom’ and the Church is the ‘Bride’. But what does this really mean? And what would ever possess Paul to compare the death of Christ to the love of a husband for his wife? If you would have been at the Crucifixion, with Jesus hanging there dying, is that how you would have described it? How could a first-century Jew like Paul, who knew how brutal Roman crucifixions were, have ever compared the execution of Jesus to a wedding? And why does he refer to this as the “great mystery” (Ephesians 5:32)? As Pitre shows, the key to unlocking this mystery can be found by going back to Jewish Scripture and tradition and seeing the entire history of salvation, from Mount Sinai to Mount Calvary, as a divine love story between Creator and creature, between God and Israel, between Christ and his bride—a story that comes to its climax on the wood of a Roman cross. In the pages of Jesus the Bridegroom, dozens of familiar passages in the Bible—the Exodus, the Song of Songs, the Wedding at Cana, the Woman at the Well, the Last Supper, the Crucifixion, and even the Second Coming at the End of Time—are suddenly transformed before our eyes. Indeed, when seen in the light of Jewish Scripture and tradition, the life of Christ is nothing less than the greatest love story ever told.
