Download or read book Thorn Side Or Throne Side written by Gabriel Abdelaziz and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-06-05 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ARE YOU VIEWING THE CROSS FROM THE THORN SIDE OR FROM THE THRONE SIDE? So many people view the Cross as their final destination. They see the crucified Jesus and that is as far as they go. When we come to the Cross, there are choices to be made and all of us need to make these choices or decisions in life. It is imperative that they are godly choices and not just based on human thoughts. On one side of the Cross, the thorn side, we often see Jesus still hanging on the Cross; therefore, it is up to us to do the works. On the other side of the Cross, the throne side, the Cross is empty and Jesus is sitting on His throne and has made a place for you and me to sit with Him. Our perspective will make all the difference between winning and losing in this life. We need a paradigm shift. A turnaround. I believe this book will help us do just that.

He takes, what some feel is the most complicated and confusing book of the bible and makes it come alive. Readers will be drawn into the fascinating stories of angels, demons, and humans as their lives intertwine, evolve, and culminate in the ominous times of the Great Tribulation. Drawing from the pages of the book of Revelation, Dr. Lawson creates an interesting assemblage of characters who draw us in and take us on an adventurous journey up to the highest heavens, down to the bottomless pit, and all around the world. This is the book of Revelation like you’ve never seen it before! We are introduced to people like Chris Mankins, Charlie and Caroline Davies, and Zaven Schmid, whose lives are greatly affected by their relationship to Christ. Some are translated into the heavenlies before the great tribulation begins, while others are left behind to live through it. Readers are swept up into the heavenly realms and given a ringside seat at the Overcomers Reward Ceremony, the Marriage of the Lamb, and the Great White Throne Judgment. We become acquainted with the antichrist, Wayah Admoni, and his sidekick Premoy Frank, the false prophet, and watch as they usher in the last world government before the coming of the Lord. Along the way, we meet interesting angelic beings such as Abaddon, the Scorpion King; Cledis and Buckus, the two hilarious Angels of Old; Clyubis, the faithful Guardian Angel; and Lucifer’s three best friends, Mam, Mucer, and Moch. You will be moved to tears at the grand finale between Satan and Father God. Buckle up for a winding tale of happiness and tears in Dr. Lawson’s debut work of fiction, based on the book of Revelation: “A Revelation Story”.

Download or read book Science and Religion written by Yves Gingras and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2017-06-16 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today we hear renewed calls for a dialogue between science and religion: why has the old question of the relations between science and religion now returned to the public domain and what is at stake in this debate? To answer these questions, historian and sociologist of science Yves Gingras retraces the long history of the troubled relationship between science and religion, from the condemnation of Galileo for heresy in 1633 until his rehabilitation by John Paul II in 1992. He reconstructs the process of the gradual separation of science from theology and religion, showing how God and natural theology became marginalized in the scientific field in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. In contrast to the dominant trend among historians of science, Gingras argues that science and religion are social institutions that give rise to incompatible ways of knowing, rooted in different methodologies and forms of knowledge, and that there never was, and cannot be, a genuine dialogue between them. Wide-ranging and authoritative, this new book on one of the fundamental questions of Western thought will be of great interest to students and scholars of the history of science and of religion as well as to general readers who are intrigued by the new and much-publicized conversations about the alleged links between science and religion.

His goal—revenge against his father—has not yet been realized, and the demons that haunt him have only grown stronger. Yet no matter how tortured his path, he intends to take the next step in his upward climb. Jorg would be emperor. It is a position not to be gained by the sword but rather by vote. And never in living memory has anyone secured a majority of the vote, leaving the Broken Empire long without a leader. Jorg plans to change that.

But he soon finds an adversary standing in his way, a necromancer unlike any he has ever faced—a figure hated and feared even more than himself: the Dead King.

Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • A darkly enchanting fantasy about a lying witch, a cursed prince, and a sinister prophecy that ignites their doomed destinies—perfect for fans of The Cruel Prince. “Everything you want from an enemies-to-lovers fantasy starring morally gray characters.”—BuzzFeed Violet is a prophet and a liar, influencing the royal court with her cleverly phrased—and not always true—divinations. Honesty is for suckers, like the oh-so-not charming Prince Cyrus, who plans to strip Violet of her official role once he’s crowned at the end of the summer—unless Violet does something about it. But when the king asks her to falsely prophesy Cyrus's love story for an upcoming ball, Violet awakens a dreaded curse, one that will end in either damnation or salvation for the kingdom—all depending on the prince’s choice of future bride. Violet faces her own choice: Seize an opportunity to gain control of her own destiny, no matter the cost, or give in to the ill-fated attraction that’s growing between her and Cyrus. Violet’s wits may protect her in the cutthroat court, but they can't change her fate. And as the boundary between hatred and love grows ever thinner with the prince, Violet must untangle a wicked web of deceit in order to save herself and the kingdom—or doom them all.

Download or read book Have You Considered My Servant Job written by Samuel E. Balentine and published by Univ of South Carolina Press. This book was released on 2015-01-09 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An extensive history of how the Bible’s story of Job has been interpreted through the ages. The question that launches Job’s story is posed by God at the outset of the story: “Have you considered my servant Job?” (1:8; 2:3). By any estimation the answer to this question must be yes. The forty-two chapters that form the biblical story have in fact opened the story to an ongoing practice of reading and rereading, evaluating and reevaluating. Early Greek and Jewish translators emphasized some aspects of the story and omitted others; the Church Fathers interpreted Job as a forerunner of Christ, while medieval Jewish commentators debated conservative and liberal interpretations of God’s providential love. Artists, beginning at least in the Greco-Roman period, painted and sculpted their own interpretations of Job. Novelists, playwrights, poets, and musicians—religious and irreligious, from virtually all points of the globe—have added their own distinctive readings. In Have You Considered My Servant Job?, Samuel E. Balentine examines this rich and varied history of interpretation by focusing on the principal characters in the story—Job, God, the satan figure, Job’s wife, and Job’s friends. Each chapter begins with a concise analysis of the biblical description of these characters, then explores how subsequent readers have expanded or reduced the story, shifted its major emphases or retained them, read the story as history or as fiction, and applied the morals of the story to the present or dismissed them as irrelevant. Each new generation of readers is shaped by different historical, cultural, and political contexts, which in turn require new interpretations of an old yet continually mesmerizing story. Voltaire read Job one way in the eighteenth century, Herman Melville a different way in the nineteenth century. Goethe’s reading of the satan figure in Faust is not the same as Chaucer’s in The Canterbury Tales, and neither is fully consonant with the Testament of Job or the Qur’an. One need only compare the descriptions of God in the biblical account with the imaginative renderings by Herman Melville, Walt Whitman, and Franz Kafka to see that the effort to understand why God afflicts Job “for no reason” (2:3) continues to be both compelling and endlessly complicated. “A tour de force of cultural interaction with the book of Job. He guides today’s reader along the path of Job interpretation, exegesis, adaptation and imagining revealing the sheer variety of themes, meanings, creativity and re-readings that have been inspired by this one biblical book. Balentine shows us that not only is there “always someone playing Job” (MacLeish, J.B.) but there’s always someone, past or present, reading this ever-enigmatic book.” —Katharine J. Dell, University of Cambridge “Balentine “considers Job” for the countless ways this biblical book, in all its rich complexities, has inspired readers over the centuries. . . . Balentine’s volume sparkles with insightful theological commentary and rigorous scholarship, and any exegetical course or study on Job would benefit from it.” —Interpretation: A Journal of Bible and Theology
