Download or read book Sins of the Spirit Blessings of the Flesh Revised Edition written by Matthew Fox and published by North Atlantic Books. This book was released on 2016-03-15 with total page 504 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Visionary theologian and award-winning author Matthew Fox challenges traditional perceptions of good and evil by offering a new theology that lays the groundwork for a more enlightened treatment of ourselves, one another, and all of nature. In this revised edition with a luminous foreword by Deepak Chopra and a new preface that brings the book up to date with the cataclysmic events of the new millennium, Fox illustrates how, contrary to mainstream church doctrine, flesh is the grounding of spirit. Fox argues that our culture has concentrated far too much on transgressions of the flesh while failing to take into account its sacredness. Artfully weaving together the wisdom of East and West, he considers Thomas Aquinas's definition of sin as "misdirected love" and applies parallels between the Eastern teachings of the seven chakras and the Western teachings of the seven capital sins. Fox explains how the chakras teach us to direct the love-energies we all possess and proposes seven positive precepts for living a full and spirited life. He invites us to change the way we think about sin and asserts that we can combat and transform evil through love, generosity, letting go, and creativity. Crafting a blueprint for social change, Sins of the Spirit, Blessings of the Flesh points the way toward a deeper and more compassionate way to live while eloquently revealing the means to confront evil both within and without.

Download or read book Ephesians Evangelical Exegetical Commentary written by S. M. Baugh and published by EEC. This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his letter to the Ephesians, Paul emphasizes the unity of believers in the inaugurated new creation. He first sets before his audience the salvation freely offered to us through faith in Christ, then applies this truth to their lives, calling them to live lives of love. In this volume, S. M. Baugh approaches this important letter from a first-century perspective, examining ancient sources to determine what Paul's words meant in their ancient context, while also interacting with recent scholarship. The result is a commentary that is academically rigorous and at the same time presents Ephesians as the good news it was meant to be. About the Evangelical Exegetical Commentary Series: The Evangelical Exegetical Commentary series incorporates the latest in critical biblical scholarship and is written from a distinctly evangelical perspective. Each comprehensive volume combines historical and literary explanations with insights for understanding the text within the Bible's larger story and applying it to everyday life.

Let Us Be Loyal Workers to the End (Matthew 24:3-14) The Apostle Matthew is telling us that the Word of Jesus was spoken to everyone in this world, for he saw Jesus as the King of kings. Now, Christians throughout the world, who have just been born again by believing in the gospel of the water and the Spirit that we are spreading, are indeed yearning to feed on the bread of life. But it is difficult for them to have fellowship with us in the true gospel, for they are all far away from us. Therefore, to meet the spiritual needs of these people of Jesus Christ, the King of kings, the sermons in this book have been prepared as new bread of life for them to nourish their spiritual growth. The author proclaims that those who have received the remission of their sins by believing in the Word of Jesus Christ, the King of kings, must feed on His pure Word in order to defend their faith and sustain their spiritual lives. This book will provide the real spiritual bread of life to all of you who have become the royal people of the King by faith. Through His Church and servants, God will continue to provide you with this bread of life. May God's blessings be on all of you who have been born again of water and the Spirit, who desire to have true spiritual fellowship with us in Jesus Christ.

Download or read book How to Appropriate All Spiritual Blessings of God in Christ Jesus written by John Olagunju and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2022-07-14 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In my walk with Jesus Christ for more than two decades now, I have observed that a lot of believers are not partaking of the fullness of all that God has provided for the Church through the death; burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ. I have not arrived myself but I have left. I have seen God supernaturally bless me over the years and I want to share what I have learnt by the Holy Spirit to you. If God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ has blessed us with all spiritual blessing in the heavenly place in Christ Jesus; why is there no manifestation of most of the blessings the bible talks about in the lives of preachers and saints. As we continue to fulfill the Great Commission that has been entrusted to us as workers together with God and stewards of His manifold grace before the return of the Lord Jesus; my goal is to show you how to partake of heavenly blessings; all the blessings that comes with Salvation and be a blessing to the Body of Christ and the unbelieving world; thereby bringing many more sons to the Kingdom of Light; strengthening the weak hands and confirming the feeble knees.

Book excerpt: This special book of memories shares my reflections on the spiritual blessings and transformative lessons I experienced during my Bayear of service in the Holy Land in (Haifa/Bahji, Israel).
