Download or read book Love Your Neighbor written by Norman L. Geisler and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2007-07-09 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Love Your Neighbor is a concise introduction to Christian ethics. It begins with a look at the biblical basis for morality, defines and describes various philosophical approaches to the subject of ethics, then connects biblical morality with the idea of absolute truth in philosophy. The book then moves from its philosophical basis to a practical application of Christian ethics, considering a wide range of social, biomedical, and personal issues. It does not take a partisan or denominational approach to these issues, but squarely faces them with an open mind and open Bible. The book is based on sound biblical and philosophical reasoning and does not tell readers what to think but encourages them to think biblically and critically through these issues.

When you’ve been transformed by God’s love, you can’t help but want others to experience the same grace and freedom. But how do you share it without scaring them away or offending them?

Dave and Jon Ferguson have found five simple, straightforward practices that will allow any believer to do just that.

She invites readers to "live sent," showing them how to see their surroundings with fresh eyes and renewed energy.

Download or read book Judge Thy Neighbor written by Patrick Bergemann and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2019-03-26 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the Spanish Inquisition to Nazi Germany to the United States today, ordinary people have often chosen to turn in their neighbors to the authorities. What motivates citizens to inform on the people next door? In Judge Thy Neighbor, Patrick Bergemann provides a theoretical framework for understanding the motives for denunciations in terms of institutional structures and incentives. In case studies of societies in which denunciations were widespread, Bergemann merges historical and quantitative analysis to explore individual reasons for participation. He sheds light on Jewish converts’ shifting motives during the Spanish Inquisition; when and why seventeenth-century Romanov subjects fulfilled their obligation to report insults to the tsar’s honor; and the widespread petty and false complaints filed by German citizens under the Third Reich, as well as present-day plea bargains, whistleblowing, and crime reporting. Bergemann finds that when authorities use coercion or positive incentives to elicit information, individuals denounce out of self-preservation or to gain rewards. However, in the absence of these incentives, denunciations are often motivated by personal resentments and grudges. In both cases, denunciations facilitate social control not because of citizen loyalty or moral outrage but through the local interests of ordinary participants. Offering an empirically and theoretically rich account of the dynamics of denunciation as well as vivid descriptions of the denounced, Judge Thy Neighbor is a timely and compelling analysis of the reasons people turn in their acquaintances, with relevance beyond conventionally repressive regimes.
Download or read book Who Is My Neighbor written by Darrell Dow and published by . This book was released on 2021-01-09 with total page 677 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An exhaustive study in Ethnicity, Culture, Immigration, and Social Inequality In Church and Western History.From the Foreword: Some time ago the West has lost its way in the order of things. This Way was a long known set of experiences concerning how the world operates and on being human. The modern mind imagines such a grand diversity of interpretations of these once-given axioms. With such variance comes uncertainty of truth and skepticism of knowledge claims. These, in turn, misdirect our political and social life from objective and formalized to subjective and relativized. Once strong structures guided our being in the world, but now all that is solid melts into air. C.S. Lewis' Abolition Of Man argued against this pluralist, subjectivized view, claiming that all humans have known some things to be universally true. This universal Way he called the natural law or the Tao. Once known to all humans, modern sentiments challenge this Way, deny it, and replace it with new, abstract ideas of theory or Right. More recently, late modernity replaces it with nothing but perceived reality. To prove this universal Way and lead us back to it, the appendix of Lewis' book contains an index of universally acknowledged norms among all human societies. Our present work picks up just one of the themes in his work and continues it more exhaustively in an area particularly under attack in our time: natural social relations.About the Authors:Thomas Achord lives in the rural South with his wife and four children. He has an M.Div. from Southern Seminary and is the headmaster of a Christian Classical school. He has published "The Soul And The City", an anthology on political and moral thought.

Book excerpt: Going Around The Corner engages adult Christ-followers, challenging them to consider their own neighborhood as a mission-field assignment by a sovereign God.

God divinely puts us where we live because He has a work for us to do as His ambassadors and ministers of reconciliation.Going Around The Corner is a mission strategy for your own backyard, using the same principles as a full-time missionary would use overseas.

You will learn to explore your neighborhood by accepting the mission and praying for believing partners. You will engage your neighbors, first by prayer walking and learning to listen to the prompts of the Spirit, and serving them through biblical good works. You will learn to evangelize through conversations and simply sharing your story. As God begins to use you to lead others to Christ, you will learn how to establish them in their faith through personal discipleship, and equip them by bringing them into your own church body.Going Around The Corner helps pastors and church leaders train their members by teaching a simple, practical, biblical strategy of disciple making. Building on a solid biblical foundation, the goal is to encourage, motivate, and equip believers to carry out the Great Commission.
Download or read book Who Is My Neighbor written by Wayne Gordon and published by ReadHowYouWant.com. This book was released on 2010-10-26 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An ''expert in the law'' once asked Jesus what he must do to inherit eternal life - and his question initiated a very interesting conversation. The Law says to ''love your neighbor as yourself,'' Jesus pointed out, so the next logical question is, ''Who is my neighbor?'' Rather than offering the lawyer an exhaustive list of neighbors and non-neighbors, Jesus told a story . . . a story we know as the Parable of the Good Samaritan. Out of that famous parable, Dr. Wayne Gordon draws more than 40 characteristics of the man who was beaten, robbed and left for dead on the road to Jericho - the character Jesus created to show Christians how to recognize their neighbors. Dr. Gordon brings that character vividly to life in Who Is My Neighbor?, and helps readers use Jesus' parable as a reference point for their interactions in their community and the world. And as readers catch Jesus' vision of neighborliness, they will also find practical suggestions for meeting needs and changing the lives of those around them . . . that is, their neighbors.
Download or read book My Neighbor My Enemy written by Eric Stover and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2004-12-02 with total page 371 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: My Neighbour, My Enemy tackles a crucial and highly topical issue - how do countries rebuild after ethnic cleansing and genocide? And what role do trials and tribunals play in social reconstruction and reconciliation. By talking with people in Rwanda and the former Yugoslavia and carrying out extensive surveys, the authors explore what people think about their past and the future. Their conclusions controversially suggest that international or local trials have little relevance to reconciliation. Communities understand justice far more broadly than it is defined by the international community and the relationship of trauma to a desire for trials is not clear-cut. The authors offer an ecological model of social reconstruction and conclude that coordinated multi-systemic strategies must be implemented if social repair is to occur. Finally, the authors suggest that while trials are essential to combat impunity and punish the guilty, their strengths and limitations must be acknowledged.
