Download or read book Martin Luther King s Biblical Epic written by Keith D. Miller and published by Univ. Press of Mississippi. This book was released on 2011-11-15 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his final speech “I've Been to the Mountaintop,” Martin Luther King Jr. delivered his support of African American garbage workers on strike in Memphis. Although some consider this oration King's finest, it is mainly known for its concluding two minutes, wherein King compares himself to Moses and seems to predict his own assassination. But King gave an hour-long speech, and the concluding segment can only be understood in relation to the whole. King scholars generally focus on his theology, not his relation to the Bible or the circumstance of a Baptist speaking in a Pentecostal setting. Even though King cited and explicated the Bible in hundreds of speeches and sermons, Martin Luther King's Biblical Epic is the first book to analyze his approach to the Bible and its importance to his rhetoric and persuasiveness. Martin Luther King's Biblical Epic argues that King challenged dominant Christian supersessionist conceptions of Judaism in favor of a Christianity that affirms Judaism as its wellspring. In his final speech, King implicitly but strongly argues that one can grasp Jesus only by first grasping Moses and the Hebrew prophets. This book also traces the roots of King's speech to its Pentecostal setting and to the Pentecostals in his audience. In doing so, Miller puts forth the first scholarship to credit the mostly unknown, but brilliant African American architect who created the large yet compact church sanctuary, which made possible the unique connection between King and his audience on the night of his last speech.

Download or read book Antichrist written by Charles Crismier and published by . This book was released on 2020-08-04 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As panic and chaos mushroom globally, the nations clamor for a "New World Order" - a global government to "save" us amid rising fear. The Bible clearly warns that the planet, having abandoned faith in the Creator God, will embrace a charismatic "savior" who will gain dominion "by flattery" and deceptive seduction. This counterfeit "Christ" -the IMPOSTER- indeed the ANTICHRIST, will be presented gloriously and globally, promising a false salvation, and will soon sweep the world into unprecedented tyrannical rule under Satan's authority. PREPARE YOUR HEART! What will be read here is neither fear mongering nor sensationalism. Rather, it is a sincere, yet sobering, translation of biblical truth intended to woo, to warn and to prepare the peoples of our planet to identify the characteristics of the most tyrannical and terrifying leader ever and soon to rule the world. To be forewarned is to be forearmed. Jesus himself warned that most, having abandoned the "fear of the Lord," will be seduced by fear of man to receive a mark -the "mark of the beast," thus declaring their eternal allegiance to Satan. The jury is now out for each of us as we lurch toward history's final hour.

CAN SAINTS BE SEDUCED? The apostles did not miss the message. Peter, James and John all warn of the seduction of the saints.

CAN YOU BE DECEIVED? Will you be among the deceived? Can you be seduced? Paul says there is coming "a great falling away" or apostasy. The purpose of this book is to strengthen your faith and to give you the tools to identify and avoid end-time deception and the Seduction of the Saints. WILL YOU BE DECEIVED?
