Download or read book Christianity Without Superstition written by John McQuiston II and published by Church Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2012-09-01 with total page 123 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is belief in the Nicene and Apostles Creeds required to be a Christian? Does science support or diminish belief in the divine? How does one live Jesus' way in the world? A careful study of Jesus shows that his intended legacy for us was not a set of propositional beliefs, but a way for being in the world, a way that opens us to the extraordinary opportunity of the present, a way that can convert our hurried, anxious lives into something luminous. Our obsession with "what to believe" misses the primary message of the Bible, says McQuiston, who illustrates that the paramount message of Jesus, and even the Hebrew Scriptures, is not about what stories to believe, but how to live.

Download or read book Religion and Superstition in Reformation Europe written by Helen Parish and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2002 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Superstition" is one of the most fought over terms in the history of early modern popular culture, especially religious culture, and is also one of the most difficult to define. This volume offers a novel approach to the issue, based upon national and regional studies, and examinations of attitudes to prophets, ghosts, saints, and demonology, alongside an analysis of Catholic responses to the Reformation and the apparent presence of "superstition" in the reformed churches. It challenges the assumptions that Catholic piety was innately superstitious, while Protestantism was rational, and suggests that the early modern concept of "superstition" needs more careful treatment by historians.

Download or read book Jesus Christ Superstition written by Robert M. Price and published by Pitchstone Publishing (US&CA). This book was released on 2019-09-04 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Robert M. Price, a former Evangelical Christian, examines the confusing intersection of Christianity and superstition by asking questions. Is "practicing the presence of God" actually a variety of paranoia? Is having a "personal relationship with Jesus Christ" really akin to a child playing with an imaginary friend? At what point does a religious belief become an obsessive neurosis? Price finds that the source of superstition in Christianity is the objectification of the transcendent. As a result, he argues, many of the most destructive superstitions within Christianity are inessential accretions to the faith, interfering with life-transforming piety to the glad benefit of many of Christianity's adherents. Christians who believe that an unexamined faith is not worth having will profit from struggling with Jesus Christ Superstition.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aside from the fact that it is perhaps the single most discussed and controversial theological writing of the century, no one knowledgeable of Bultmann's work could doubt its basic importance for his entire contribution. Although the position is for which it argues was hardly new, having already taken shape in several of his theological essays written during the 1920s, it is nevertheless the classic formulation of this position and as such incomparable in the Bultmann corpus.
Download or read book There is proof God never existed written by Albertus Pretorius and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2017-11-21 with total page 441 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Document from the year 2017 in the subject Theology - Miscellaneous, , language: English, abstract: The decline of Christianity world-wide is no secret and it may be expected that churches will die, or – at most – become fringe phenomena. As science progresses it gets clear that the Bible cannot be regarded as God-inspired due to all its mistakes, contradictions, fiction dressed up as history and inhumane laws. It is also evident that Jesus of Nazareth was no divine person but only an ordinary human being who had delusional dreams about becoming king of the Jews, that Paul of Tarsus invented Christianity by combining elements of the Old Testament with paganism on account of a series of visions or halluciniations he said he had had, that Christian doctrines are often irrational superstitions, and that one may lead a meaningful and moral life without being religious. Some new perspectives on the life of Jesus of Nazareth are given, as well as novel arguments to prove that God never existed. It is shown that the universe is ruled by rational axioms, which may be regarded as eternal and even divine. This book contains much that will keep theologians, philosophers and scientists busy, but it is also aimed at the layperson who is interested in religion, philosphy and science.

Book excerpt: A profound exploration of how to hold on to hope when our unchanging faith collides with a changing culture, from two respected Christian storytellers and thought leaders. “Offers neither spin control nor image maintenance for the evangelical tribe, but genuine hope.”—Russell Moore, president of ERLC As the pressures of health warnings, economic turmoil, and partisan politics continue to rise, the influence of gospel-focused Christians seems to be waning. In the public square and popular opinion, we are losing our voice right when it’s needed most for Christ’s glory and the common good. But there’s another story unfolding too—if you know where to look. In Gospelbound, Collin Hansen and Sarah Eekhoff Zylstra counter these growing fears with a robust message of resolute hope for anyone hungry for good news. Join them in exploring profound stories of Christians who are quietly changing the world in the name of Jesus—from the wild world of digital media to the stories of ancient saints and unsung contemporary activists on the frontiers of justice and mercy. Discover how, in these dark times, the light of Jesus shines even brighter. You haven’t heard the whole story. And that’s good news.
