Download or read book Jehovah Himself Has Become King written by Robert King and published by Author House. This book was released on 2010-06-02 with total page 538 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Civilization has now reached a crucial tipping point. Mountains of easy money, leveraged into the stratosphere by unscrupulous dealers in inscrutable financial derivatives, have ensnared entire nations in a web of debt. The nations and financiers are locked in a pushing match. The only unsettled question at this particular juncture is whether the nations will decisively act in the interests of their people and shut down the financial system that is looting the world or whether they will allow the banks to foreclose upon them, thereby effectively ending the era of sovereign nation states and ushering in a banker’s global dictatorship. Bible prophecy supplies the answer. Jehovah Himself Has Become King offers a fresh and unique understanding of prophecy from the standpoint of the vital role that Jehovah’s Witnesses have played upon the world stage in recent times. But contrary to the Watchtower’s prophetic exegesis focused on an invisible parousia for the past nearly 100 years, this work points forward to the visible manifestation of Christ to the chosen ones during the three and one-half year period outlined in the Scriptures as the time of the end.

Download or read book Hitchcock s Bible Names Dictionary Definitions of Ancient Hebrew Names Mentioned in Biblical Lore written by Roswell D. Hitchcock and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2018-08-02 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hitchcock's compendium of Bible names and their definitions demystifies the meanings of every Bible name from A to Z - thus, it is a superb reference manual for spiritual study. A good supplement to Biblical studies, Hitchcock's book lists the meanings behind the various names. This allows readers to discover the etymological origins of the most famous figures in the Bible, place these names in their proper context, and thus perform readings of the holy scripture from a more informed perspective. Many of the names pertain directly to the qualities of their holders. For example the name Behemoth from the Book of Job simply means 'monstrous', while the name 'Iscariot' (as in Judas Iscariot) means 'a man of murder; a hireling'. Other names are however more nuanced - the name 'Baal' means 'master, or lord', contrasting the demonic connotations applied by 17th century Gothic fiction.
Download or read book Gleanings in Exodus written by Arthur W. Pink and published by Sovereign Grace Publishers,. This book was released on 2002-09 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Historically, the book of Exodus treats of the deliverance of Israel from Egypt; but viewed doctrinally, it deals with redemption. Just as the first book of the Bible teaches that God elects unto salvation, so the second instructs us how God saves, namely, by redemption. Redemption, then, is the dominant subject of Exodus. Following this, we are shown what we are redeemed for-worship, and this characterizes Leviticus, where we learn of the holy requirements of God and the gracious provisions He has made to meet these. In Numbers we have the walk and warfare of the wilderness, where we have a typical representation of our experiences as we pass through this scene of sin and trial-our repeated and excuseless failures, and God's long-sufferance and faithfulness.

Download or read book Who Can Take the Lord s Supper written by Dallas W. Vandiver and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2021-09-10 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Baptism and the Lord’s Supper are likely more basic for the church than you think. When Jesus inaugurated the new covenant by his death on the cross, he established baptism as the new covenant sign of entry and the Lord’s Supper as the new covenant sign of participation. These signs identify believers with Christ and his people. They are integral to the existence, membership, and discipline of the local church. In answer to the question “Who can take the Lord’s Supper?” this book catalogues four major positions in the broad Baptist tradition. While proponents of various views have appealed to the necessity of circumcision for participation in Passover as evidence for their position, none have adequately worked out the covenantal relationships between circumcision and baptism or Passover and the Lord’s Supper. By contrast to Reformed pedobaptist covenantal theology and in distinction from Baptist covenantal theology and dispensational theologies, this book develops the relation of these covenantal signs from a progressive-covenantal perspective. It presents an unprecedented comparison of the continuities and discontinuities between the covenant signs across the storyline of Scripture to demonstrate a biblical-theological principle that the sign of entry should precede the sign of participation.
