Download or read book The Great Mystery of the Second Coming written by Gail Anne Carroll and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-11-14 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Father M. Joachim Tierney, O.C.S.O., instilled in the author his desire to discover the mystery of the visions and revelations of the Lord that St. Paul was shown when he was caught up into the third Heaven, paradise, as seen in 2 Corinthians 12:1-7. What they uncovered in their quest for this hidden knowledge is that St. Paul was shown the great mystery of Christ's Second Coming. And that this extraordinary mystery, now being revealed, is St. Paul's Gospel yet to be preached by the Church. St. Paul writes: "Now to him that is able to establish you according to 'my gospel' and the preaching of Jesus Christ according to 'the revelation of the mystery, ' which was kept secret from eternity, which 'now' is made manifest by the scriptures of the prophets..." (Romans 16:25-26) This secret mystery, the preaching of Jesus Christ according to St. Paul's gospel, is woven throughout St. Paul's letters. In fact, the word "mystery" is seen eighteen times in his epistles, whereas in the gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John the word mystery can be found just once, or not at all depending on which version of the Bible. This great mystery veiled in his letters is what has made them, until now, difficult to understand. A key was needed to unlock this powerful gift of knowledge. In his letter to the Colossians 4:3-6, St. Paul requests prayers that "a door of speech to speak the mystery of Christ" be opened by God. The key opening the door to the preaching of this glorious mystery of Christ is now being manifested in this prophetic unveiling of Sacred Scripture.

Download or read book When Christ Comes written by Max Lucado and published by Thomas Nelson. This book was released on 2014-01-07 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Life with no end? Space with no bounds? And what about Armageddon, The Lake of Fire, The Mark of the Beast? Are we supposed to feel good about all this? When we wonder about these things, we aren't alone. There is much about the end of history we don't understand. But while thoughts on the final day will stir our questions, they needn't stir our fears. Regarding that day, Jesus urged, "Don't let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God, and trust in me" (John 14:1). Max Lucado believes the day Christ comes will be the "beginning of the very best." And our primary task is to be prepared and peaceful while we wait. If we have some questions about the end of time ... If we have concerns about what will happen to us ... If we want to look to the end of times as a source of comfort and not chaos ... Then this is the book we need. New York Times best-selling author Max Lucado walks us through Scripture to find peace in the present and hope for the hereafter.

Download or read book Jesus the Bridegroom written by Brant James Pitre and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Jesus the Bridegroom, Brant Pitre once again taps into the wells of Jewish Scripture and tradition, and unlocks the secrets of what is arguably the most well-known symbol of the Christian faith: the cross of Christ. In this thrilling exploration, Pitre shows how the suffering and death of Jesus was far more than a tragic Roman execution. Instead, the Passion of Christ was the fulfillment of ancient Jewish prophecies of a wedding, when the God of the universe would wed himself to humankind in an everlasting nuptial covenant. To be sure, most Christians are familiar with the apostle Paul's teaching that Christ is the 'Bridegroom' and the Church is the 'Bride'. But what does this really mean? And what would ever possess Paul to compare the death of Christ to the love of a husband for his wife? If you would have been at the Crucifixion, with Jesus hanging there dying, is that how you would have described it? How could a first-century Jew like Paul, who knew how brutal Roman crucifixions were, have ever compared the execution of Jesus to a wedding? And why does he refer to this as the "great mystery" (Ephesians 5:32)? As Pitre shows, the key to unlocking this mystery can be found by going back to Jewish Scripture and tradition and seeing the entire history of salvation, from Mount Sinai to Mount Calvary, as a divine love story between Creator and creature, between God and Israel, between Christ and his bride--a story that comes to its climax on the wood of a Roman cross. In the pages of Jesus the Bridegroom, dozens of familiar passages in the Bible--the Exodus, the Song of Songs, the Wedding at Cana, the Woman at the Well, the Last Supper, the Crucifixion, and even the Second Coming at the End of Time--are suddenly transformed before our eyes. Indeed, when seen in the light of Jewish Scripture and tradition, the life of Christ is nothing less than the greatest love story ever told.
Download or read book The Second Coming written by Cyrene and published by Partridge Publishing. This book was released on 2014-04-25 with total page 561 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Second Coming takes a fresh look at the Gospel of Matthew through the unconditioned eyes of a truth-seeker. The book reinterprets the Gospel of Matthew from a non-dualistic perspective and brings out spiritual insights totally unexpected. The book also brings to the forefront the forgotten character of Joseph as the 'tekton' of the Gospel. The distinctive feature of the book is that it redefines abstruse or undefined biblical terms such as, the Father, the Son, the Holy Spirit, God, heaven, hell, Serpent, Satan, sin, etc., in a new light that makes the interpretation internally consistent, and also consistent with the external reality. According to the book, the message of the Gospel is straightforward: The human body is the Savior. Therefore, turn to the body. The book goes beneath the literal content of the Gospel of Matthew to discover its soul.

Download or read book Gregory of Nyssa Against Eunomius written by Saint Gregory of Nyssa and published by Aeterna Press. This book was released on with total page 491 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It seems that the wish to benefit all, and to lavish indiscriminately upon the first comer one’s own gifts, was not a thing altogether commendable, or even free from reproach in the eyes of the many; seeing that the gratuitous waste of many prepared drugs on the incurably-diseased produces no result worth caring about, either in the way of gain to the recipient, or reputation to the would-be benefactor. Rather such an attempt becomes in many cases the occasion of a change for the worse. The hopelessly-diseased and now dying patient receives only a speedier end from the more active medicines; the fierce unreasonable temper is only made worse by the kindness of the lavished pearls, as the Gospel tells us. I think it best, therefore, in accordance with the Divine command, for any one to separate the valuable from the worthless when either have to be given away, and to avoid the pain which a generous giver must receive from one who treads upon his pearl,’ and insults him by his utter want of feeling for its beauty.
