Download or read book Necessity of Prayer written by Edward M. Bounds and published by CCEL. This book was released on 2011-04-07 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Necessity of Prayer, Edward Bounds, a 20th century pastor and lawyer, suggests that prayer is an essential part of the Christian believer's life. He writes, "the Christian soldier, if he fight to win, must pray much." Bounds' book, however, is not simply a list of prayers for one to work through, but also a discourse on the very nature of prayer. He connects the nature of prayer to other features of the Christian life, such as faith, reverence, patience, hope, character, conduct, and faithfulness. Bounds' passion for prayer--which compelled him to write nine books on the topic--shines through in this work, and cannot but help motivate those who read it to also see the necessity of prayer. Perfect for individual study, Bounds' book is sure to change the way one prays. -Tim Perrine, CCEL Staff Writer

Download or read book Apocalypse written by Jacques Ellul and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2020-05-05 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “There has never been a book provoking more delirium, foolishness and irrational movements, without any relationship to Jesus Christ [than the Book of Revelation].” —Jacques Ellul, Introduction Known for his trenchant critique of modernity and of those Christians who celebrate their captivity to it, Ellul here cuts to the heart of the theological intention of the Book of Revelation, and thereby reveals the liberating gospel in all its offensiveness. Neither an exhaustive commentary nor a work of historical-exegetical analysis, Apocalypse is a provocative, independent interpretation. Ellul seeks to rescue Revelation from the reassuring and orthodox banality to which commentators often reduce it. The goal is to perceive the totality of the book in its movement and structure. “Architecture in movement” is the key to understanding Revelation’s puzzling but simple message. This edition also comes with a new foreword by Jacob Marques Rollison who provides an essential aid for guiding readers through Ellul’s thorough engagement with Revelation.
Download or read book Tongues to Speak Or Not to Speak written by Donald W. Burdick and published by Moody Publishers. This book was released on 1969 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tongues: to speak or not to speak? That is the question and Donald W. Burdick gives the answer. An answer that is biblically sound, scholarly and current. It has to be current, because the question is. Glossolalia (speaking in tongues) is receiving national attention. Both Time and Newsweek have recently featured articles on how "tongues" is now an accepted practice even in many of the old-line denominational churches. Many questions are being asked. How can this new flourish be explained? Is it a renewal of the New Testament phenomenon? Is it something to be sought after? These and similarly provocative questions are carefully discussed by Dr. Burdick. He analyzes, evaluates, and then lists all possible explanations of the current reenlistment to the movement. More than that, he provides background material essential to an effective evaluation. - Back cover.
