Download or read book God s Plumb Line written by Steve Langford and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2023-08-09 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A plumb line is a builder's tool used to align a builder's project. Similarly, God's plumb line is a tool that aligns our thinking with the character of God and the ways of God, positioning us to discern the will of God. This Spirit-guided way of thinking is what the apostle Paul called "the renewing of the mind" (Romans 12:2) and "the mind of Christ" (1 Corinthians 2:16). Our lives are transformed as the Spirit teaches us the things of God that Jesus taught, moving us beyond the way the world trained us to think and live. God's plumb line is a tool that, under the guidance of the Spirit, helps us think with the mind of Christ and, thereby, to discern the will of God.

Download or read book Why the Bible Is so Hard to Understand and Tips to Understanding It written by Steve Langford and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2023-01-06 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Bible continues to be a source people turn to in their hunger for God. Yet, the Bible can be a challenging, confusing book to understand. In Why the Bible is So Hard to Understand...and tips to understanding it, author Steve Langford explores the challenges readers commonly encounter in reading the Bible. The first challenges Steve identifies are those found within how we naturally, unconsciously read the Bible. Then he addresses the Bible’s nature as sixty-six different books written from an ancient, near-Eastern, pre-scientific perspective. He then offers a simple model of interpretation that guides the reader in unwrapping the spiritual truth from the human “wrapper” used to deliver it. The model is followed by guidelines for using it. Two bible studies are included, one of Jesus walking on the water that illustrates how to use the model and one from the life of Peter that outlines the process of spiritual growth that is prompted as we read the Bible. The book also offers guidelines for exercising spiritual discernment and for praying the Bible using the practice of lectio divina. It presents an outline of biblical history that helps the reader put each of the six-six books in its historical context. It ends with theological reflections on God’s eternal redemptive purpose, the kingdom of God, and the church.

Download or read book Catholic Peacebuilding and Mining written by Caesar A. Montevecchio and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2022-01-31 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the role of Catholic peacebuilding in addressing the global mining industry. Mining is intimately linked to issues of conflict, human rights, sustainable development, governance, and environmental justice. As an institution of significant scope and scale with a large network of actors at all levels and substantial theoretical and ethical resources, the Catholic Church is well positioned to acknowledge the essential role of mining, while challenging unethical and harmful practices, and promoting integral peace, development, and ecology. Drawing together theology, ethics, and praxis, the volume reflects the diversity of Catholic action on mining and the importance of an integrated approach. It includes contributions by an international and interdisciplinary range of scholars and practitioners. They examine Catholic action on mining in El Salvador, Peru, Colombia, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and the Philippines. They also address general issues of corporate social responsibility, human rights, development, ecology, and peacebuilding. The book will be of interest to scholars of theology, social ethics, and Catholic studies as well as those specializing in development, ecology, human rights, and peace studies.

Download or read book A Rational Approach To The Bible written by Aemilius and published by . This book was released on 2019-11-10 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between mankind and God, there is a secret missing link that humanity has forgotten. This book is the first in a series of books that seeks to explain in great detail the meaning behind the world's most renowned religions as well as the true nature of reality. As children, religion is not provided to us as a system of choice but rather enforced upon us by our parents and peers. It gives us a certain identity and ties us to a certain group of people who hold the same ""sacred cause"" while dooming everyone else as ""profane"". We then spend our entire lives defending this religion as it literally dictates our identity, as false as it may be. The child rarely understands his religion as he lacks the proper tools to dissect and analyze it verse by verse. This is the book you wish you had in your childhood as your personal unbiased mentor who sheds light on millennia's endarkened scriptures. The purpose of this book is to help the child as well as the adult to navigate his way through the bible.
