Then the Lord God said, Behold, the man has become like one of us, knowing good and evil; and now, lest he put forth his hand and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live for ever therefore the Lord God sent him forth from the garden of Eden,... he placed a flaming sword which turned every way, to guard the way to the tree of life. ~ Genesis 3:21-24 In Book I, Garments of Skin, biotechnology had enabled man to slip past the flaming sword. He has broken through to the Tree of Life and eaten of its fruit. But now the soul is trapped in the garment of skin, and this curse brought about by the hubris of science is poised to spread like a plague throughout all humanity. Now in Book II of the Genomic Apocalypse, former adversaries have united to defeat this onslaught of Satan.

Download or read book Daughters of Abraham written by Yvonne Yazbeck Haddad and published by University Press of Florida. This book was released on 2020-12-01 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Indispensable for those seeking to understand feminist theology. Jewish, Christian, and Muslim women share the historical reality of having been silent partners in their own traditions. By bringing their stories together, Daughters of Abraham suggests that they can forge a future characterized by mutual support based on a common bond."--Tamara Sonn, College of William and Mary Important for a general audience interested in women and religion, this book will be especially valuable to scholars in the fields of feminist theology, comparative religion, and interfaith studies. Based on the premise that women’s struggles to have their voices heard are shared throughout the monotheisms, these essays offer new insights into the traditions of three religions during the past century. Six scholars engage in dialogue with their own faith communities, reflecting on their scripture and theology in order to understand the process by which women have been constrained within the patriarchal teachings of the religion. Looking at texts and narratives long utilized to keep women within boundaries, they open up the scriptures and traditions to a feminist interpretation of the historical teachings of their faiths.

Download or read book The Three Daughters of Abraham written by Donald L. Shaffer and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2003 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I wrote this book after much study following Sept. 11, 2001. I saw enough so that I felt the need to make my findings available to others. Now, after much more study, my views have developed considerably. There is value in what I had seen before. It was part of my journey to getting where I am now. To the extent that I was in error, it was mostly that I was still taking much of what I read literally. I now realize that the Bible was always meant to be interpreted figuratively. My recent studies and revelations are concerning the Garden of Eden, the Sword of the Lord, and Paul's thorn in the flesh. These things and more are closely related.

Download or read book The World s Religions written by Huston Smith and published by . This book was released on 2017-03-29 with total page 422 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book has seven basic chapters: Hinduism, Buddhism, Confucianism, Taoism, Islam, Judaism, and Christianity. These he calls the "Major Historical Religions." They all have sacred texts. This book was intended to be a brief survey without an in-depth analysis. A new section was added to The World's Religions. It is entitled "The Primal Religions." It describes a broad sweep of religions such as those practiced by the Australian Aborigines, by the Native American Indians of North and South America and the religions of the interior of Africa. Huston Smith's masterpiece explores the essential elements and teachings of the world's predominant faiths, including Hinduism, Buddhism, Confucianism, Taoism, Judaism, Christianity, Islam, and the native traditions of Australia, Africa, Oceania, and the Americas. Emphasizing the inner--rather than the institutional--dimension of these religions, Smith devotes special attention to Zen and Tibetan Buddhism, Sufism, and the teachings of Jesus. He convincingly conveys the unique appeal and gifts of each of the traditions and reveals their hold on the human heart and imagination.
Download or read book Children of Abraham written by Michael S. Pendergast III and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2012-05-24 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It all began with Abraham, and with his son Isaac and his older brother Ishmael. The question in dispute today is where it all ends or should end. Does history lead us to a particular descendent of Ishmael, Mohammed of Mecca and the religion he founded? Or does it lead instead to a descendent of Isaac, Jesus of Nazareth and a competing religion Christianity? Is there any hope of discovering which of the alternatives is the true path that we should embrace and follow? There is! For the Holy Book of one religion sets out a test consistency and then fails to pass it in a spectacular fashion. The Scriptures of the other religion, however, sets out a different test meeting prophecy and then stuns us by flawlessly passing not only it, but other books test as well. Step inside this short manuscript and we will journey through history, examining the lives of Abraham, Mohammed, and Jesus, and the religion each was intimately associated with. As we do so, we will make some amazing discoveries that may perhaps change forever your ideas about who Jesus and Mohammed were and what Judaism, Christianity, and Islam are all about.
