Download or read book Wounded Lord Reading John Through the Eyes of Thomas written by Robert H. Smith and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2009-09-15 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John's gospel does not record "Thomas's doubt," as later generations of Christians have branded the story. Rather, John presents Thomas's faith. In this work, Robert H. Smith approaches Thomas as one who believes in the reality of incarnation: God has a body. Too often, Smith argues, Christians read John's gospel for its lyrical discourses. The resulting portrait of Jesus is a "cross-less Christ," a portrait that contributes powerfully to Christian triumphalism. In contrast, Smith finds that the evangelist always has the cross in view. Smith reads John "backwards," through the eyes of Thomas. In so doing, he demonstrates the centrality of a wounded Lord in the theology of the gospel. But this book does not end with hermeneutics. Smith advances his discussion into the life of discipleship. Anyone dwelling in Christ's body will be similarly marked. What does it mean to live in the world as the marked body of Christ? Everyone who poses the question will want to read this book. Martha E. Stortz Professor of Historical Theology and Ethics Pacific Lutheran Theological Seminary/The Graduate Theological Union Berkeley, California

Download or read book The Lord Gives and I Take written by Rosalie Cowick and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2023-03-17 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: God is so, so good! He never stops showering his love, his mercy, and his compassion on us in so many, many ways. The Lord gives, and I take. It doesn’t sound too good for us, does it? I could spend the rest of my life writing about what God gives to each one of us even to those who do not walk with the Lord. His hand is continually pouring out. Most of us do not think about it, or we ignore it. And if we do, we look at it with very dim-sighted eyes. Much of our time is spent on the expectations of what we want from him. But he gives, and he gives, and he gives. And the reality is, we take, and we take, and we take. We take all that God supplies with very little thankfulness to him. We are greedy, and we expect so much, and the truth is, we are so undeserving. Can we ever pay God back? Never...never...never. But we can recognize, appreciate, embrace, and be thankful for what he has done, is doing, and will do by honoring him and living our lives in his love and in service to him, worshipping and giving him all the glory and bringing to light his word to those who don’t know him. I stand in awe and amazement at the Lord’s grace for humankind. He holds all together for us. Be brought back to the beauty, the awe, and the wonder of God! May we change the casualness in our hearts and minds that we take toward him and begin to develop a view of his awesome mercy and grace. Join me in plunging into the depths of his goodness.

Download or read book Diplomacy Diaspora written by Dr Lm Singhvi and published by Prabhat Prakashan. This book was released on 2012-01-01 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: National Security at its simplest means the nation’s control of its borders and the preservation of its territorial integrity including its airspace and territorial waters. Above all, it means the protection of national institutions of governance and the freedom of the people without subversion, infiltration and disruption. On the other hand, there can be no real national security without international security. Diplomacy is an instrument of establishing and maintaining the equilibrium of national and international security. Both diplomacy and national security have their roots in the conceptual scheme and operational aspects of sovereignty, which is the hallmark of States. National security and diplomacy are inextricably interwoven. Indeed defence and diplomacy, the diplomat and the soldier have much in common except that their battle-lines and locations, their target areas, their weapons and equipment and their strategies and tactics are distinct and are tackled differently. Diplomacy is the defence of one’s country and its interests beyond its frontiers, but in a sense, diplomacy only an extension of national security. The intelligence network of the country both within the country and overseas plays a vital role in both in diplomacy and for national security.
