Book excerpt: Voici donné, en avant-première de l'édition critique complète des quatre-vingt-sept sermons de Calvin retrouvés à Londres en 1995, un sermon de juillet 1558 sur le début du chapitre 55 d'Esaïe. Le thème de la famine spirituelle rappelle aux hommes la primauté des biens spirituels sur les nourritures terrestres et les invite à écouter une fois encore le message salutaire du Prophète. C'est pour célébrer le 450e anniversaire de l'octroi d'une charte du roi Edouard VI en faveur de la fondation d'une Eglise des réfugiés étrangers, que l'Eglise protestante française de Londres a souhaité publier ce sermon. Le texte de Calvin rassemble des thèmes centraux de la Réforme et pose un certain nombre de questions qui n'ont guère vieilli. Une traduction anglaise, des notes et un glossaire permettront à un grand nombre de lecteurs de goûter la langue désuète mais vigoureuse du Réformateur. .

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: People in the world are looking for direction. They are trying to fill a void in their life with the things of this world. That void that they are trying to fill was left empty for God to fill. Without Jesus Christ, a person cannot and will not have peace. It is time to get back to the foundation Jesus laid. This famine is for the Word for God. The doctrine of men has made the Word of God affect none because of the teaching rules made by man.

Download or read book Children before God written by John McNeill and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2017-11-09 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work seeks to delineate a theological framework into which biblically informed imagery and language of children in relation to God can be placed. McNeill’s aim is to offer a work of positive construction within the general Reformed tradition. The book shows that John Calvin has much to offer in this respect, but by examining the imagery and language of children in his works it is shown that Calvin is not adequately biblically informed in this area. McNeill argues that Jonathan Edwards provides a theological tool that enables a construal of children more in keeping with biblical language and imagery. The book then offers a general critique of current child development theories in which providential activity in child development is more or less ignored. By adopting Calvin’s theological framework to understand children before God, it is argued that the integration of child development and divine providence becomes a distinct possibility. This work should be of interest to those working in biblical, childhood, Calvin, and Edwards studies, as well as to the more general practitioner working with children in church and society.

Download or read book Earthly Treasures written by Catharine Randall and published by Purdue University Press. This book was released on 2007 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Earthly Treasures maps the presence, position and use in the narrative of a variety of material objects in Marguerite de Navarre's Heptameron. There is a wide selection of objects, ranging from tapestries with scripture passages woven into the borders, fine arts paintings, chalices incised with proverbs, emblems, table linens, copies of Bibles or manuscripts, clothing, masks, stage props, jewelry, furniture and foodstuffs. Although the presence of such material objects seems paradoxical, given the scriptural mandate to disregard things of this world, and to "store up treasure", rather, in heaven, Marguerite found license to use such objects both in the Bible and in the daily life-oriented and artifact-studded sermons and writings collected in the Table Talk of Martin Luther.
Download or read book Revelation de Sept Eglises D Asie written by Raha Mugisho and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2012-04 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nous ne devons pas faire de l'église de Christ ce que nous voulons, ce que nous désirons, MAIS CE QUE CHRIST VEUT. Quelques fois, les gens aiment les fausses prophéties qui les encouragent dans leur laisser - allez, mais sachez que la prophétie qui est vraie doit marcher en concordance avec la bible; et si pas, elle est à rejeter. Jérémie 5: 31« Les prophètes prophétisent avec mensonge, et les sacrifi cateurs dominent par leur moyen; et mon peuple l'aime ainsi .Et que ferez- vous à la fi n ? L'Eternel met une grande importance sur les conducteurs spirituels parce que ceux - ci doivent être des modèles; et ipso - facto, les croyants ou les fi dèles seront marqués par les exemples de leurs chefs. Ainsi, tout celui qui est à la place de premier rang doit s'abstenir de tergiverser la volonté de Dieu parce qu'il risque d'égarer tous les autres qui le suivent. Nous avons beaucoup d'exemples concrets que nous voyons dans plusieurs religions. Il est diffi cile d'enlever une mauvaise conception aux fi dèles au cas où leurs conducteurs la soutiennent.
Download or read book The Opposite of More Is Enough written by Sydney Douglas Smith and published by . This book was released on 2020-05-10 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The opposite of more is enough is a wonderful combination of true stories, scriptures, poetry, anecdotes and facts that have left many of the contributors with the knowledge that God has been busy in their lives in a way that has changed outcomes sometimes with complete surprise.We are often painted a picture by the world of a God who does not do enough for people. Yet the consensus that has come through from stories told is that God does in fact love the world and we do not really need more of anything because we already have enough and that God uses everything that happens to us in life, even the bad things, to weave our life into a tapestry which to us looks like a jumble of different coloured ends, yet when we get an occasional glimpse at what he is doing it looks to be sufficient (ENOUGH).The author shows us, through well researched facts, how hunger, starvation and poverty are decimating many countries and that a great deal of waste has and still is occurring in both developed and undeveloped countries.However, there are two questions asked as challenges.(a) If we do have enough then why are so many people suffering?(b) What can we do to alleviate world suffering?The author makes it clear that we who have enough (even if we don't think we have) can't just do nothing. Nothing is not an option!In fact, we are given a list of ten things we can do as a challenge, some of these do not cost money, gifts or time and those that do cost only as much as you want to contribute.The UN have a set of 17 sustainable goals that it aims to realise by 2030 and the author feels that if we all do something from the ten choices given that these goals are achievable.That means in TEN YEARS ONLY, NO Starvation, No Hunger, No Poverty, No Climate Change.

Download or read book Nameless Blameless and Without Shame written by Gina Hens-Piazza and published by Liturgical Press. This book was released on 2003 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Employing three venues of literary analysis (conventional literary criticism, new literary criticism, and postmodern literary criticism), this book conducts a character study of the two cannibal mothers before a king (2 Kings 6:24-33). Training our attention upon these minor characters yields major insights. In particular, the postmodern literary assessment discloses the violence encoded in texts by the privileging of the powerful and the empowering of the privileged. Moreover, the broader ties that such a character study yields connect these cannibal mothers to portraits of other pairs of biblical mothers and their plight (the two mothers before Solomon, Sarah and Hagar, Rachel and Leah) and prompt us to search for counter-stories in the biblical tradition and in our own lives opposing the violence embedded there.
