Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Introduction to Tradition Breakers These were more noble than those in Thessalonica in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so. Acts. 17:11 Are you a Berean? Paul, during his second missionary journey, traveled from Troas in Asia Minor on a course through Samothrace and Neapolis to Philippi. In Philippi Paul preached messages which resulted in jail time for himself and his companions. It was here that the Philippian jailor and his family were converted. Paul saved the jailor from both physical (suicide) and spiritual death [Acts. 16 :11-40]. It makes one ask, what message was Paul preaching? We will answer that question later. After leaving Philippi, Paul traveled to Thessalonica where he started a church. He first entered the Jewish Synagogues and brought the message of the risen Christ (Messiah). Only a few of the Jews were converted but a great multitude of Greeks, including leading women, joined Paul and Silas [Acts 17:1-5]. Paul and Silas, being in danger for their lives, were spirited away by the Thessalonian believers to Berea. Arriving in Berea, Paul and Silas once again went into the Synagogue of the Jews [Acts. 17:10]. At Berea, These were more noble than those in Thessalonica in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so. [Acts. 17:11] Do you accept every message you hear (taught in good faith) as fact? Are you a Berean? Whose teachings were the Bereans studying? None other than the Apostle Paul s. What message was Paul preaching that angered the Jews? We find it in the first letter Paul wrote after meeting his Savior on the Damascus road. That message is found in 1Thessaolnians 4:13-18. The Lord returning for His Church. Page 1 Tradition Breakers contains selections from a collection of unpublished manuscripts written between the years of 1994 and 2002. Each manuscript was written with the eagerness of a Berean searching the scriptures while reading traditional interpretations. Question. Do you blindly trust interpretations of the Old and New Testaments to be scripturally correct? Some of our favorites could be misrepresented. Do you believe? 1. That only Joshua and Caleb (over twenty years old) survived the forty years of wondering in the wilderness before entering the Promised Land? Don't you believe it! At least one other person (thirty years old or older) at Mount Sinai with Moses and Aaron outlived Joshua in the Promised Land. Perhaps his whole tribe (those who did not die of old age during those forty years) entered with him. Chapter 1. Joshua, Caleb and How Many Others? 2. That Mary, rather than Martha, is the person that you and I should pattern our lives after? Don't you believe it! Scripture informs us that Martha was not only a servant of the Lord but also a much learned disciple. Other than sitting at the feet of Jesus there is little to be known about Mary's spirituality and much to be known about Martha s. Chapter 2. Martha, the Lord's Disciple and Servant 3. That God hated Esau, Romans 9:13? Don't you believe it! God is not saying He loves one of the sons of Isaac and Rebekah (Jacob) and hates the other (Esau). In fact we should say, if God hated Esau, how could God ever have loved Jacob. Chapter 3. Romans 9:13 - Esau I hated? Not Really 4. That there was a creation of the heavens and earth before the biblical creation recorded in Genesis Chapter One and Two? Don't you believe it! How could anything have existed before God (Elohiym the plural God) provided the expanse (a place) in which to put His creation? Interesting question. Chapter 4. In the Beginning God 5. That Elijah was taken in a chariot of fire when God called him to heaven and made Elisha His prophet to Israel. Don't you believe it! The chariot of fire was to sep

Download or read book Rule Makers Rule Breakers written by Michele Gelfand and published by Scribner. This book was released on 2019-08-20 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A celebrated social psychologist offers a radical new perspective on cultural differences that reveals why some countries, cultures, and individuals take rules more seriously and how following the rules influences the way we think and act. In Rule Makers, Rule Breakers, Michele Gelfand, “an engaging writer with intellectual range” (The New York Times Book Review), takes us on an epic journey through human cultures, offering a startling new view of the world and ourselves. With a mix of brilliantly conceived studies and surprising on-the-ground discoveries, she shows that much of the diversity in the way we think and act derives from a key difference—how tightly or loosely we adhere to social norms. Just as DNA affects everything from eye color to height, our tight-loose social coding influences much of what we do. Why are clocks in Germany so accurate while those in Brazil are frequently wrong? Why do New Zealand’s women have the highest number of sexual partners? Why are red and blue states really so divided? Why was the Daimler-Chrysler merger ill-fated from the start? Why is the driver of a Jaguar more likely to run a red light than the driver of a plumber’s van? Why does one spouse prize running a tight ship while the other refuses to sweat the small stuff? In search of a common answer, Gelfand spent two decades conducting research in more than fifty countries. Across all age groups, family variations, social classes, businesses, states, and nationalities, she has identified a primal pattern that can trigger cooperation or conflict. Her fascinating conclusion: behavior is highly influenced by the perception of threat. “A useful and engaging take on human behavior” (Kirkus Reviews) with an approach that is consistently riveting, Rule Makers, Ruler Breakers thrusts many of the puzzling attitudes and actions we observe into sudden and surprising clarity.

Download or read book San Francisco Bay Area Sports written by Rita Liberti and published by University of Arkansas Press. This book was released on 2017-03-15 with total page 373 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: San Francisco Bay Area Sports brings together fifteen essays covering the issues, controversies, and personalities that have emerged as northern Californians recreated and competed over the last 150 years. The area’s diversity, anti-establishment leanings, and unique and beautiful natural surroundings are explored in the context of a dynamic sporting past that includes events broadcast to millions or activities engaged in by just a few. Professional and college events are covered along with lesser-known entities such as Oakland’s public parks, tennis player and Bay Area native Rosie Casals, environmentalism and hiking in Marin County, and the origins of the Gay Games. Taken as a whole, this book clarifies how sport is connected to identities based on sexuality, gender, race, and ethnicity. Just as crucial, the stories here illuminate how sport and recreation can potentially create transgressive spaces, particularity in a place known for its nonconformity.

Download or read book Allegorizing History written by Timothy J Furry and published by James Clarke & Company. This book was released on 2014-05-29 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is history and how does it impact upon biblical interpretation and theology? 'Allegorizing History' seeks to answer this question by arguing that conceptions of the past and the purposes of history impact upon biblical interpretation and vice versa.Invoking Constantin Fasolt's notion of history as 'a knowledge of the past, as well as the technique by which such knowledge is produced', and re-fashioning Erich Auerbach's historical enterprise in Figura (1938), Furry contends that the understanding and practice of historical writing is inevitably affected by philosophy and theology, thereby rendering all history as figural or allegorical. Famous for his Ecclesiastical History of the Anglo-Saxon People and biblical commentaries, the Venerable Bede is studied in dialogue with Augustine, contemporary theology, and historical theory to make this interdisciplinary argument.

This book was released on with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Entrepreneurship is a discipline with a knowledge base theory. It is an outcome of complex socio-economic, psychological, technological, legal and other factors. It is a dynamic and risky process. It involves a fusion of capital, technology and human talent. Entrepreneurship is equally applicable to big and small businesses, to economic and non-economic activities. Entrepreneurship lies more in the ability to minimize the use of resources and put them to maximum advantage. Without any awareness of quality and desire for excellence, consumer acceptance cannot be achieved and sustained. Above all, entrepreneurship today is the product of teamwork and the ability to create, build and work as a team. The entrepreneur is the maestro of the business orchestra, wielding his baton to which the band is played.
