Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When you hear the word Zion, what comes to mind? As Christians, we’ve sung the choruses and the hymns about Zion or Mount Zion, but do we fully understand just what we’re singing about? Do we know what it is? The Bible promises the full restoration of Zion, and if we don’t fully know what Zion is, what then do we anticipate in terms of its restoration? The greatest hindrance to accurate interpretation and application of Scripture is a futuristic view of Scripture. This futuristic view continues to rob the Believer of experiencing God in His fullness in the here and now. In this book, we will uncover within the Scriptures exactly what Zion actually represents to the New Testament believer. So lay down any preconceived ideas you may have, delve into the pages of this book, and let it speak truth to you.

Book excerpt: My book is titled Oh, Zion, Whats the Matter Now? The title came from my own experience of not witnessing the power and spiritual blessings that are promised to us as believers. I began to get discouraged and upset with God, not realizing what I was waiting and praying forwhether it was healing, miracles, or revivalwas already there. Revival and all spiritual blessings were waiting on me to receive and act upon them. At that moment, I began to feel a great desire to share with others the things I was hearing inside. I want this book to remind the saints we have all we need to be a triumphant church. My desire is that other believers will be drawn by the question, whats the matter? We have been given everything we need to promote the kingdom of God. We have got to get busy. Time is of the essence. Souls are depending on us to take our rightful place.

Download or read book Mount Zion written by Joseph Obiaya and published by . This book was released on 2011-02-28 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While scientific knowledge is based on tested truths, religion is founded on blind assent to divinely revealed truths. Such is the gap between religion and science. It appears unbridgeable. Or is it? Upon close examination of the Scriptures, from "Genesis" to "Revelation", a mystical object (depicting the Nature and Kingdom of God) emerges as the central theme of Divine Revelation. Its structural features and attributes were described in different epochs, by different biblical personages. This Hidden Structure--Mount Zion (a Cryptogram)--is variously portrayed in the Scriptures as a rock or a mountain, and frequently associated with fire (combustion). Through a combustion experiment, the three dimensional picture of this Divine Emblem--a Pictogram-was made manifest, in the first edition, replete with a pair of mathematical functions. Thus, the authentication of the Scriptures no longer depends on blind faith, but on the systematic verification of this Structure with the testimonies of biblical personages who espied and described its features long before the dawn of science. The Structure together with the mathematical functions were later determined to be a particular solution. An in-depth examination of the experimental data resulted in a general solution, giving rise to a dual Complex Structure: a Mountain and a Valley. Thus, the (carbon monoxide) combustion process is, now, expressed as a system of competing matrices of energy hills and valleys. (These results challenge some of the currently held notions in quantum mechanics; notably, the idea that there is a wave function "collapse" or a "reduction" of the wave packet in the process of measurement.) The spiritual meaning of the Hill--Mount Zionwas the focus of the first edition. In the second edition, the ValleyDeath Valleyoften identified in the Scriptures as a Pit or the Netherworld, was established as a complementary Spiritual Form (Psalms 23:4 & 28:1). These metaphysical structures represent the Ultimate Reality. While Mount Zion relates to Goodness, Death Valley pertains to Evil; together, they constitute the Complex Whole. Even so, each embodies the attributes of the othera fractal feature. As determined from the combustion experiment, the Mountain is dominant over the Valley. And given the fractal properties of the Complex Whole, Mount Zion is, inherently, the Simple Whole Form: the Emblem of Ultimate Reality, and the exemplar of Occam's razor; as evidenced by the pervasive reference to this Structure in the Scriptures. The Complex Structure, however, enabled a fuller discussion of the relative attributes of the Divine. It is useful for addressing some of the ambiguities in the Scriptures. For instance, the Morning Star is an appellation of the Exalted Christ (Rev. 22:16), yet, it shares meaning with "Lucifer", the Evil One, who is, nevertheless, the Prince of Darkness (Isa. 14:12; Lk. 10:18). By virtue of the Cryptogram, the Model of Mount Zion, the Cosmic Atonement Sacrifice has, now, been shown to be a Tripartite Agency--the Sin-offering Bullock, the Sin-offering Goat, and the Scapegoat--reminiscent of the Judaic Day of atonement (cf., Lev. 16). As Cosmic Sin-offering Goat "for the Lord", Jesus ascended Mount Zion, and then entered into the Holy of Holies, through the loss of His body (that is, with His blood). Whereas, Muhammad, as Cosmic Scapegoat, ascended Mount Zion, alive, and with an escort, then rose to the Gate of the Heavenly Sanctuary, before being banished into the wilderness-valley "for Azazel". Having descended from Abraham, Jesus and Muhammad, each, identified with Abraham's lineage: Jesus through Isaac (the prototypical human sin-offering goat) and Muhammad through Ishmael (the archetypal human scapegoat). As for the Cosmic Sin-offering Bullock for the Royal, Heavenly, High Priest, He remained, like Melchizedek, a mystery until now. The Revelation of the Cryptogram enabled the authentic interpretation of the Third Part of the Secret of Fatima (Third Secret for short). Attention is called to the last section of this Book (13.4.h) which was first published in 1993 (Library of Congress Catalog Card Number: 93-93712) and endorsed with the Divine Seal: the Cryptogram. It, especially, anticipated the Third Secret that was released in 2000; that is, to the extent that the theme and Principal Characters described in the Third Secret were portrayed there (and in other passages), presciently. Indeed, it is no coincidence that the scene of events in the Third Secret was an anonymous Mountain invested with God's Presence: towards whom the pilgrims streamed (as pre-portrayed by the Cryptogram). God's Presence on that Mountain establishes it as Mount Zion, God's Abode (cf., Ps. 74:2; 48:2; Isa. 18:8; Heb. 12:22). The Third Secret encoded a Spiritual War between two anonymous Combatants, with an ominous result: a frequent eschatological theme in the Scriptures. This edition reveals clues in the Third Secret which identify the Antagonists in the "Vision", and correlate them to those named presciently in the first edition; thus, facilitating the authentic interpretation of the Third Secret. So, the Author's foreknowledge of the Third Secret constitutes Divine ratification of the "Vision and Prophet", literally and figuratively, in fulfillment of Daniel's prophecy (Dan. 9:24). Evidence is presented in this Book, also, showing the fulfillment of several prophecies in connection with the transfer of Divine Authority from Judah to a foreigner. Indeed, several prophecies are cited pertaining to the relocation of the Messianic Capital: from the Old Jerusalem to a New City of God. In the Scriptures, Abraham paid tribute to the prototypical priest-king, Melchizedek: a foreigner to Abraham. This Personage is, often, identified in the Scriptures with the Messiah. Jesus's Messianism, however, is Abrahamic, through Judah. How, then, could He be likened to Melchizedek? Also, Jacob prophesied that the Scepter would devolve upon Shiloh (He to whom it belongs) from Judah. By the same token, Jesus cannot be identified with Shiloh, since Jesus is a descendant of Judah, through David (cf., Gen. 49:10). Furthermore, according to a Judaic tradition at Passover (commemorating a saving act): A place is usually set for (the phantom) Elijah on the ceremonial dinner table of a typical Jewish home, with the belief that Elijah would return to the house of Jacob as an unknown guesta stranger. Could these Distinguished OnesMelchizedek, Shiloh and Elijah; all of them strangers to Judahrefer to the same Personage? The implication of the foregoing discussion is the reality of another Messianic Personage (One distinct from Abraham). This issuethe idea of two Messiahsis raised, independently here, and implied in the Book of Daniel (9:24-27). The Qumran writings also made reference, explicitly, to two Messiahs. Consider the various appellations of these Messianic Personages in the Qumran texts: "Interpreter of the Law", "[Eschatological] Prophet", "Prince of Light", "Prince of the Whole Congregation", "Messiah of Aaron", "Messiah of Israel", "Heavenly Messiah", and "Priestly Messiah". And compare these with the information advanced in this Book. Other metaphysical systems are discussed also in context; and the Cryptogram is inferred to underlie them all: Heraclitus' Logos; Lao Tsu's Yang-and-Yin; and Zoroaster's Good-and-Evil.

Download or read book Searching for Zion written by Emily Raboteau and published by Open Road + Grove/Atlantic. This book was released on 2013-01-08 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Jerusalem to Ghana to Katrina-ravaged New Orleans, a woman reclaims her history in a “beautifully written and thought-provoking” memoir (Dave Eggers, author of A Hologram for the King and Zeitoun). A biracial woman from a country still divided along racial lines, Emily Raboteau never felt at home in America. As the daughter of an African American religious historian, she understood the Promised Land as the spiritual realm black people yearned for. But while visiting Israel, the Jewish Zion, she was surprised to discover black Jews. More surprising was the story of how they got there. Inspired by their exodus, her question for them is the same one she keeps asking herself: have you found the home you’re looking for? In this American Book Award–winning inquiry into contemporary and historical ethnic displacement, Raboteau embarked on a ten-year journey around the globe and back in time to explore the complex and contradictory perspectives of black Zionists. She talked to Rastafarians and African Hebrew Israelites, Evangelicals and Ethiopian Jews—all in search of territory that is hard to define and harder to inhabit. Uniting memoir with cultural investigation, Raboteau overturns our ideas of place, patriotism, dispossession, citizenship, and country in “an exceptionally beautiful . . . book about a search for the kind of home for which there is no straight route, the kind of home in which the journey itself is as revelatory as the destination” (Edwidge Danticat, author of The Farming of Bones).

Book excerpt: "The son of a Jewish father and Baptist mother, Paul Wilbur grew up attending synagogue. In college he was transformed by a Baptist minister's teaching about a rabbi, Jesus, who fulfilled the promise of the Torah. As he grew in his relationship with Jesus, Wilbur was reintroduced to the God of the Old Testament and began exploring his Jewish heritage. Along the way, he discovered the power of Jewish worship traditions-the weekly Shabbat, with the power of Holy Communion and dedication to family, along with other high holy traditions and feast days. Observing those ancient rituals, now infused with the power of the Holy Spirit, Wilbur heard a sound that he describes as a "roar from Zion." As evangelicals came to understand and incorporate ancient Jewish worship practices in their home and church lives, miracles broke out, fathers assumed their roles as the head of their families, prodigal children returned home, and marriages were restored. What began with one man is now becoming a movement, with tens of thousands taking part"--

Download or read book Zionism Without Zion written by Gur Alroey and published by Wayne State University Press. This book was released on 2016-05-02 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Examines an alternative ideology to Zionism that attempted to build a Jewish State outside of Palestine. While the ideologies of Territorialism and Zionism originated at the same time, the Territorialists foresaw a dire fate for Eastern European Jews, arguing that they could not wait for the Zionist Organization to establish a Jewish state in Palestine. This pessimistic worldview led Territorialists to favor a solution for the Jewish state "here and now"—and not only in the Land of Israel. In Zionism without Zion: The Jewish Territorial Organization and Its Conflict with the Zionist Organization, author Gur Alroey examines this group's unique perspective, its struggle with the Zionist movement, its Zionist rivals' response, and its diplomatic efforts to obtain a territory for the Jewish people in the first decades of the twentieth century. Alroey begins by examining the British government's Uganda Plan and the ensuing crisis it caused in the Zionist movement and Jewish society. He details the founding of the Jewish Territorial Organization (ITO) in 1903 and explains the varied reactions that the Territorialist ideology received from Zionists and settlers in Palestine. Alroey also details the diplomatic efforts of Territorialists during their desperate search for a suitable territory, which ultimately never bore fruit. Finally, he attempts to understand the reasons for the ITO's dissolution after the Balfour Declaration, explores the revival of Territorialism with the New Territorialists in the 1930s and 1940s, and describes the similarities and differences between the movement then and its earlier version. Zionism without Zion sheds new light on the solutions Territorialism proposed to alleviate the hardship of Eastern European Jews at the start of the twentieth century and offers fresh insights into the challenges faced by Zionism in the same era. The thorough discussion of this under-studied ideology will be of considerable interested to scholars of Eastern European history, Jewish history, and Israel studies.
