Download or read book Holy Warriors written by Edna Fernandes and published by Granta Books. This book was released on 2011-03-03 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Home to all the major religions, India is also, inevitably, host to virtually every type of religious fanatic. No other nation has witnessed as much proselytizing or heard as many war cries in the name of God as India. For centuries, Hindus, Christians, Sikhs and Muslims have waged bloody wars, sought violent conversion and declared jihad against their enemies, as their religions have been hijacked by the forces of fundamentalism. In Holy Warriors, Edna Fernandes travels to the country's recent and past theatres of religious extremism - from Kashmir to Gujarat, Punjab to Goa - to meet the generals and foot soldiers of communal wars who assert their faith in rhetoric and rage. Theirs are stories of bigotry and bloodshed, insecurity and despair, but Fernandes listens with understanding, tolerance and a deft sense of humour, and paints a uniquely vivid and clear-sighted picture of a country divided by dogma.
Download or read book Conversations with the High Priest of Coosa written by Charles M. Hudson and published by Univ of North Carolina Press. This book was released on 2009-11-04 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book begins where the reach of archaeology and history ends," writes Charles Hudson. Grounded in careful research, his extraordinary work imaginatively brings to life the sixteenth-century world of the Coosa, a native people whose territory stretched across the Southeast, encompassing much of present-day Tennessee, Georgia, and Alabama. Cast as a series of conversations between Domingo de la Anunciacion, a real-life Spanish priest who traveled to the Coosa chiefdom around 1559, and the Raven, a fictional tribal elder, Conversations with the High Priest of Coosa attempts to reconstruct the worldview of the Indians of the late prehistoric Southeast. Mediating the exchange between the two men is Teresa, a character modeled on a Coosa woman captured some twenty years earlier by the Hernando de Soto expedition and taken to Mexico, where she learned Spanish and became a Christian convert. Through story and legend, the Raven teaches Anunciacion about the rituals, traditions, and culture of the Coosa. He tells of how the Coosa world came to be and recounts tales of the birds and animals--real and mythical--that share that world. From these engaging conversations emerges a fascinating glimpse inside the Coosa belief system and an enhanced understanding of the native people who inhabited the ancient South.
Download or read book The Warrior Priesthood Revolution written by James Slobodzien and published by . This book was released on 2021-01-16 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book uncovers and systematically integrates ancient religious mythologies; archaeological mysteries; and End-time prophecies. It presents a very unorthodox view of the basic struggles (mind-battles) that non-professional Christians have regarding their personal Spiritual Wars. It covers a variety of topics to include our personal Wars on: racism, sex, drugs, money, plagues (COVID), hell, suicide and eternal judgment. It introduces some of the most unexpectedly rational and exotically strange hidden mysteries of the Holy Scriptures that critically challenge the traditional views of organized christianity (that are not based on the Bible). It also proposes a biblical theory for the origin of Racism. Jesus said, "The truth will set you Free," (Jn. 8:32). But pursuing freedom, will require the reader to have an open mind to new possibilities, think outside the box, and put aside their religious bigotry. This book is dedicated to the brave Christian warriors of Ethiopia that continue to "fight the good fight," (1 Tim. 6:12). The Ethiopian empire is the only region of Africa to remain defiantly Christian and survive the expansion of Islam as a Christian state. Throughout history, they have remained faithful to Christ, even while facing opposition and religious, racial, and political persecution from Roman Catholicism and Islam. New archaeological evidence has revealed that the African nation of Ethiopia was one of the first Christian Nations on planet earth. We now have scientific evidence, that all humans descended from a single migration from Africa in Ethiopia. So, we know that God's chosen people the Israelites, and Jesus and his Apostles were also descendants from Africa and therefore were a colored people. In light of these facts, this book is also dedicated to Christian Warriors such as Martin Luther King, Jr. and other black, indigenous and people of color in the worldwide Black Church throughout history that have suffered persecution and death for their faith in Christ. We know that racial misinterpretations of the "Curse of Ham" were used throughout history even by religions of Christianity to justify and prolong the black inferiority myth and the enslavement of black people. The Bible informs us that it was Satan's plan from the beginning to curse and destroy God's chosen "colored" people (Gen. 3:15). The New Testament Bible tells us that Philip baptized an Ethiopian eunuch near Jerusalem in the first century Early Church (Acts 13:1, 8:38). Bible scholars inform us that this was the beginning of Jesus' prophecy to his disciples to be his witnesses "... to the ends of the earth," (Acts 1:8).My purpose in writing this book is to proclaim that Jesus came to prepare his disciples and his future church for a complete spiritual revolution, because religious, racial, and political persecution would be coming upon them from their own family members who reject "The Way" (Acts 24:22). The goal is to empower readers to further mine the riches of God's Word to prepare God's warriors for the revolution. The Apostles John, Peter, and even Moses proclaimed that God: "has made us to be a Kingdom and Priests to serve his God and Father," (Rev. 1:6, 5:10; 1 Pet. 2:9; Ex. 19: 5,6). So, between now and the Second Coming, Jesus commands his Royal Priesthood Army to lead this anti-religious revolution by continuing the Great Commission. I pray that its uncensored truth will set those in the Royal Priesthood free from the bondage of repressive religious guilt, persecution, and the moral injuries that perpetuate the symptoms of religious addiction. It is also my goal to assist with providing guidance for discipleship and healing to God's people to unite the Army of the Lord to fulfill the Great Commission to: " ... Go and make disciples of all nations, ..." (Mt. 28:19).

Download or read book Merchant Soldier Sage written by David Priestland and published by National Geographic Books. This book was released on 2014-02-25 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A bold new interpretation of modern history as a struggle between three economic groups We are now living in an age of merchants, but it was not always so. The history of civilization, in large part, is a story of a battle between agrarian aristocracy, the military, and a class of learned experts, or priests. Yet in seventeenth-century England and in the Netherlands, another group entered the mêlée for power: the merchants. For the last four decades, the merchant's power has been unfettered. In Merchant, Soldier, Sage, acclaimed Oxford scholar David Priestland proposes a radical new approach to understanding today’s balance of power, and analyzes the societal and economic historical conditions required for one of these three value systems to dominate. Priestland asserts that, in the wake of the Great Recession, the weakened and discredited merchant still clings to power—but the world is again in the midst of a period of upheaval.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: WARS CHANGE, WARRIORS DON'T We are all warriors. Each of us struggles every day to define and defend our sense of purpose and integrity, to justify our existence on the planet and to understand, if only within our own hearts, who we are and what we believe in. Do we fight by a code? If so, what is it? What is the Warrior Ethos? Where did it come from? What form does it take today? How do we (and how can we) use it and be true to it in our internal and external lives? The Warrior Ethos is intended not only for men and women in uniform, but artists, entrepreneurs and other warriors in other walks of life. The book examines the evolution of the warrior code of honor and "mental toughness."

Sources include Herodotus, Thucydides, Plutarch, Xenophon, Vegetius, Arrian and Curtius--and on down to Gen. George Patton, Field Marshal Erwin Rommel, and Israeli Minister of Defense, Moshe Dayan.
