Book excerpt: What does science teach us about mankind? People who do not believe that there is a Creator God would have us believe that the universe appeared by chance. If that were really true it would mean that we are nothing more than a bio-chemically determined accidental product of nature. We are living in an unguided universe that began from nothing and will end in nothing. It would mean that we have no free will. It would mean that all of our choices are just the product of chemicals reacting in our brains. In contrast to that hopeless philosophy, the Bible begins by assuring man that there is a God that stands outside of space and time; a God that is not part of nature but, in fact, created all of the worlds and all of the life that we see and experience.

Download or read book Origins written by Paul Copan and published by Morgan James Publishing. This book was released on 2018-08-28 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “An excellent . . . introduction to the challenges and benefits of reading Genesis 1-11 as a genuinely ancient (specifically ancient Near Eastern) text.” —Iain Provon, author of Seriously Dangerous Religion Origins turns much of what Christians learned in Sunday School on its head in a revealing comparison of the Genesis narrative to the competing pagan narrative of the day. Relatively few Bible readers are familiar with the world of the ancient Near East, centered in Mesopotamia and its most prominent city, Babylon. The culture, literature, religions, geography, etc. of the early biblical period dramatically influenced what was written and why and without an understanding of these elements, the purposes, meanings, and structure of the text are easily misread by modern readers and reduces the primeval narrative to a collection of Sunday School stories. Origins, while acknowledging the agendas of modern readers, remains on track in expounding on the ancient agenda. Paul Copan and Douglas Jacoby address the doubts of those who find stumbling blocks in early Genesis, facing the tough questions head on and providing biblical solution to many of the “problem passages.” Origins surprises and amazes all seekers, new believers, and veterans of Scripture alike as it devastates the polytheistic, pagan assumptions and proclaims the true God. “A fine addition to the ever-increasing library of books concerning Genesis . . . One also hopes that this volume might be leveraged as an apologetics tool to help those looking for theistic viewpoints on Creation.” —Dustin Burlet, Conspectus “This book can be a helpful apologetic and alternative view for those in the church who have only heard a literal approach to Genesis 1-11 and are looking for something different.” —Renew.org
Download or read book The Book of Origins written by Philip Eveson and published by Welwyn Commentary Series. This book was released on 2001 with total page 592 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As its name implies, Genesis is a book of origins. In it we are told of the origin of the universe, the beginnings of the human race and the birth of the Israelite nation. But it is more than an early record of origins. It is part of God's Word to us, what the apostle Paul calls "God-breathed" Scripture. Here we are given infallible instruction concerning where we all came from and why things are the way they are. The book of Genesis is also crucially important for our understanding of the rest of Scripture. It introduces us to the true and living God, to the beginnings of sin, its consequences and how it has affected the whole created order. - Publisher.

Download or read book Gifted Origins to Graced Fulfillment written by Kerrie Hide and published by Liturgical Press. This book was released on 2001 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 2002 Catholic Press Association Award Winner The classical expression of soteriology (salvation theology) has tended to spiritualize salvation and place it on a supernatural plane where it loses contact with the existential lives of people. In the face of this heritage, questions have risen from contemporary experience that challenge the Christian tradition. Does life have meaning? Is love at the core of all reality? In Gifted Origins to Graced Fulfillment, Kerrie Hide searches for responses to these questions. Hide examines the soteriology presented in the Revelations of Divine Love, composed by Julian of Norwich. She analyzes the understanding of salvation expressed in the Visions, or showings of Julian and expands previous theological inquiry into Julian's texts. After demonstrating how Julian's theology is a trinitarian theology of love, Hide addresses each aspect of Julian's soteriology within the framework of her trinitarian formula. The theological precis reveals that, for Julian, salvation is a process of oneing in a mystical, three-part journey from our origins with God to our ultimate return to God. Hide's analysis provides a hermeneutic for examining mystical literature theologically and demonstrates the important contribution mystical theology makes to the broader field of theology. She contributes a systematic study of Julian's understanding of salvation not undertaken previously. In Part One, Hide examines Julian's Visionary experience and her expression of the experience that led others to reflect on, record, and write about her texts. She also presents a hermeneutic for interpreting Julian's showings. Part Two presents Julian's soteriology as a trinitarian soteriology of oneing and explores how our life is in three stages. In Part Three, Hide delves into our gifted origins. She surveys Julian's creation theology and her anthropology. Part Four focuses on Christology. This section presents Christ's role in redemption through the cross, through his work as servant, and through his function as mother. Part Five inquires into graced endings. The chapters examine the present experience of graced fulfillment in the power of the Holy Spirit and the hope for fulfillment in the eschaton. Finally, in Part Six, Hide draws together Julian's understanding of salvation. She appraises the relevance of these teachings for today. Chapters are Julian of Norwich," *A Hermeneutic for Interpreting the Showings, - *Oneing Through the Trinity, - *Oneing in Being, - *Oneing Through the Crucifixion, - *Oneing Through the Servant, - *Oneing Through Christ, Deep Wisdom and Mother, - *Oneing Through the Holy Spirit, - *One ing in the Eschaton, - and *Julian's Spiritual Understanding.
Download or read book The Book of Genesis written by Arno Clemens Gaebelein and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-14 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Book of Genesis: A Complete Analysis of Genesis With Annotations The first Book of the Bible is called in the Septuagint (the Greek translation of the Old Testament) Gene sis. Genesis means Origin. The Hebrews call it by the first Hebrew word Bereshith. - In the Begin ning. It is the Book of all beginnings. We can trace here the beginnings of creation and everything else, except God, who has no beginning. The Book of Gene sis is the great foundation upon which the entire: revelation of God rests. The marvellous structure of the Bible, composed of the different books, written by different instruments of the Spirit of God at different times, is built upon this great, majestic Book. It is the root out of which the tree of God's revelation has grown. Internal evidences prove the most complete unity, that it is the work of one chosen instrument, Moses, and that it is not of a composite authorship. But more than that, the Book of Genesis establishes the Divine Unity of the Bible. The last Book of the Bible, the Revelation, confirms this. Genesis tells of the origin of all things; Revelation reveals the destiny of all things. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
