Book excerpt: Would You Recognize an Angel if You Saw One? The majority of earth’s inhabitants believe in Angels. Yet so few of us can claim to have seen one. Why? Perhaps it’s because in order to encounter one, we first have to learn what to look for and how to look! We live in a world where the natural and supernatural overlap. Angels are constantly on mission from God and constantly at work in this world. From the Garden of Eden to the Book of Revelation, Scripture is filled with hundreds of references to these wondrous creatures. In this creative work, Scot McKnight explores what the Bible says – and doesn’t say – about these majestic beings. And that’s deeply important because angels are still on mission today. They express God’s love, confirm His presence, and even lead humans in redemptive worship. Don’t just believe in angels. Learn how to recognize these messengers of God that are all around us and know how God might be using them to affect our lives. Now available in a convenient paperback edition, The Hum of Angels illuminates what the Bible says about these heavenly beings; and it helps you to understand the deepest truths about one of God’s most magnificent and yet misunderstood creations. Most People Believe in Angels. It’s What we Believe About them that Matters. Believing in angels is one thing. But how can we know what angels are really like – especially when our preconceived notions have been mostly shape by sensationalized misinterpretations of these wondrous beings? To help sort things out, Scot McKnight untangles fact from fiction on topics such as: * Do loved ones become angels when they die? * Can we hear from angels? * Is there a hierarchy of angels? * Do we have a specific guardian angel? * Should we be scared of angels? * Are cherubs and seraphs different creatures than angels? * Do angels have wings? * Are angels worship leaders?
Download or read book What the Bible Says about the Heavenly Messengers written by Finis Jay Caldwell Jr and published by Guardian Books. This book was released on 2012-12-01 with total page 474 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This fascinating book is filled with humor, history, hair-raising suspense and intrigue, political harassment, and efforts on the part of both God and His angels and His earthly creatures, humanity, to be a blessing to each one's fellows and an honor to the Church on earth and the Church in heaven. All of the individuals dealt with were either heart-convicted, healed of the blight of sinfulness and headed for heavenly bliss eternally with the saints terrestrial and the holy ones (angels) celestial, or destined for an eternity in the lake of fire and brimstone, the second death. Both groups combined comprise a significant representation of the outstanding characters of the Bible, the good and the evil. Both camps testify consistently to the genuineness and realism of the angels, from Genesis through Revelation. Both groups confirm the significant influences of the heavenly messengers, the angels, from eternity before creation to eternity beyond the end of earthly time. The Holy Bible tells its story of God's holy heavenly messengers, the angels, from sea to shining sea and from earthly shore to eternal shore. Blessed be the one that reads, and they that hath ears, let them hear appreciatively what the Bible says about the heavenly messengers, the angels. An earlier book was produced in 2008, entitled Dr. David Caldwell: An 18th Century Flame for Christ. It tells some of the background story of the American Religious Restoration Movement, 1730-1860, emphasizing the significant little-known influences of Dr. David Caldwell on restoration leader Barton W. Stone. "The book can be used valuably as a supplement for courses on the Stone-Campbell Restoration Movement. Its greatest strength is the author's impressive use of many period sources from scattered locations." -James S. O'Brian, review of Dr. David Caldwell: An 18th Century Flame for Christ, by Finis Jay Caldwell, Stone-Campbell Journal 14, no. 1 (Spring 2011): 89-90. Finis Jay Caldwell Jr. was born in 1936 in southeast Missouri, reared in genuine North Carolinian tradition and culture, and educated through Harding University at Searcy, Arkansas. He has been married to his college sweetheart, Marilyn Lee Beal, since 1957. The Caldwells have been blessed with six children. Now semi-retired in Kennett, Missouri, the Caldwells ministered for churches in Arkansas, Missouri, New Mexico, Texas and Tennessee. They also did mission work in Canada, New Zealand, and Albania. Mr. Caldwell has made five trips to the Holy Land as well as travels in many of the nations surrounding the Mediterranean. One summer was spent doing archaeological work as part of his studies at the Hebrew Union College in Jerusalem. Finis Jay Caldwell Jr. has earned a bachelor's degree, an MRE degree, an MA degree, and an MTH degree; he also accumulated some fifty hours toward a doctoral degree while at Baylor University (1968) and several other schools.
Download or read book Compelled written by Dudley Rutherford and published by Worthy Books. This book was released on 2018-04-17 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Deep in the heart of every believer, there is a faint whisper. A call. A prompting. We go about our business and we hear it. We see and interact with lost people each day, and the whisper echoes again: "Share your faith. Tell them about Jesus." But fear, busyness, and lack of tools or motivation silence the whisper. Another day, another year, another life passes and we haven't told anyone about the best thing that ever happened to us -- the life-changing message of the gospel of Jesus Christ. Modern-day messages of kindness and acceptance deceive us into thinking we never have to open our mouths and actually share the truth with others in love. And yet the whisper is trying to tell you that you have the key to eternity in your possession. Can you hear it? In Compelled, Dudley Rutherford shares his earnest desire for each and every believer to be equipped and bold with the good news of salvation. He encourages you with inspiring stories of men and women, young and old, who have accepted the irresistible call to share Jesus with everyone they meet. And he provides practical methods to overcome your fears and effectively articulate the message of salvation. Allow these pages to strengthen the gentle nudging in your spirit until it's too loud to ignore -- until you are compelled to tell others about the hope you've found.

Download or read book Spirit Junkie written by Gabrielle Bernstein and published by Harmony. This book was released on 2011-09-13 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “So long, Carrie Bradshaw—there’s a new role model for go-getting thirty-somethings. Gabrielle Bernstein is doling out inner peace and self-love for the postmodern spiritual set.”—Elle Foreword by Marianne Williamson Before she became a celebrated teacher and lecturer, Gabrielle Bernstein was going down a dangerous path. For years, Bernstein struggled with eating disorders, drug and alcohol abuse, and constant self-doubt and self-loathing. That all changed when she discovered A Course in Miracles, which taught her that much of what she feared in life was not frightening at all and, in many cases, not even real. Now, Bernstein lives an empowered, healthy, and joyful life. In Spirit Junkie, Bernstein guides readers through the life-changing lessons that shaped her spiritual journey: how we become accustomed to fearful ways of thinking, how to recognize and change those thought patterns to make way for bliss, and how to maintain our happiness and share it with the world. By understanding and changing our perceptions, hang-ups will melt away, resentments will release, and a childlike faith in joy will be reignited. Praise for Spirit Junkie “For those ready to give up their addiction to suffering or who simply need to release the general malaise of a too-busy, too shallow way of life, Spirit Junkie is a soothing balm for the soul. Gabrielle Bernstein is a brilliant shining guide for all who seek to have more love, more light and more miracles in their life.”—Arielle Ford, author of The Soulmate Secret
Download or read book The Christ of the Apocalypse Contemplating the Faces of Jesus in the Book of Revelation written by Msgr. A. Robert Nusca and published by Emmaus Road Publishing. This book was released on 2018-06-30 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: That the Apocalypse of John is a “Revelation of Jesus Christ” (Rev 1:1) is a fact too often overlooked by interpreters of this last book of the Bible. As Msgr. A. Robert Nusca’s The Christ of the Apocalypse: Contemplating the Faces of Jesus in the Book of Revelation proposes, beyond predictions of earthquakes and falling stars, St. John articulates from start to finish a multifaceted and compelling portrait of Jesus Christ. Nusca offers an exegetical reading of selected verses of the Book of Revelation, incorporating rich spiritual and pastoral reflections. The Christ of the Apocalypse above all affirms that St. John’s God- and Christ-centered, symbolic universe offers our contemporary world a spiritual place to stand amid the shifting sands of postmodernity. As Cardinal Thomas Collins, Archbishop of Toronto, writes in his Foreword, “Now, as in the first century, Christians face martyrdom, and those who are not called to die for Christ are called to live for Christ in a world which in many ways rejects the Gospel. More than ever, we need the apocalyptic vision, to have our own vision of reality clarified, and to be strengthened in our evangelical witness.”
Download or read book Three Angels One Message written by John T. Anderson and published by Review and Herald Pub Assoc. This book was released on 2012 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now would be a good time to remember the angels' instructions. The Three Angels' Message comprise only seven of Revelation's 404 verses--a tiny percentage of what John the revelator recorded. Yet as God's final warning to a world enamored with sin, these cryptic messages are highly significant. What exactly is God warning the world about, though? And how is this warning relevant to you, considering what is currently happening in our world? If it's so important, why isn't this portion of Scripture as well known as the Ten Commandments or the golden rule? Within these pages John Anderson examines individual words and phrases to decipher clues embedded in the original language, and searches the Bible for the context in which each word is used. His careful investigation uncovers the veiled meaning of these messages by comparing scripture with scripture--and reveals just how urgent God's warning is to every human on this planet today.

Book excerpt: The remarkable truth about angels, the agents of Heaven, unveiled through Scripture—from the New York Times best-selling author of Everything You Need “Outstanding! As one would expect from David Jeremiah, this book reflects a theologian’s concern, a pastor’s heart, and a Biblicist’s accuracy.”—Dr. Bruce Wilkinson People have long been fascinated by stories of angel sightings, yet many contemporary beliefs about angels are based on misconception and myth rather than solid, biblical truth. As he’s done so brilliantly for decades, respected Bible teacher Dr. David Jeremiah of Turning Point Ministries uses Scripture to unveil the remarkable truth about these agents of heaven and their role in our world and our lives. What are angels? What is their role in God’s plan? Are they present? Do they appear? Do they give us personal insight about our work and our worship? In this broad and thorough survey of Scripture, Dr. Jeremiah clearly and simply separates fact from fiction as it relates to angels. His enlightening findings are supported with illustrations and insights from prominent teachers, such as Billy Graham, Corrie ten Boom, C. S. Lewis, and more. Dr. Jeremiah’s down-to-earth style guides readers around the hype about angels and directly into everything you need to know about the “substance of things unseen!”
