Book excerpt: The author of Desiring God reveals the biblical evidence to help us see and savor what the pleasures of God show us about Him. Includes a study guide for individual and small-group use. Isn’t it true—we really don’t know someone until we understand what makes that person happy? And so it is with God! What does bring delight to the happiest Being in the universe? John Piper writes, that it’s only when we know what makes God glad that we’ll know the greatness of His glory. Therefore, we must comprehend “the pleasures of God.” Unlike so much of what is written today, this is not a book about us. It is about the One we were made for—God Himself. In this theological masterpiece—chosen by World Magazine as one of the 20th Century’s top 100 books, John Piper reveals the biblical evidence to help us see and savor what the pleasures of God show us about Him. Then we will be able to drink deeply—and satisfyingly—from the only well that offers living water. What followers of Jesus need now, more than anything else, is to know and love—behold and embrace—the great, glorious, sovereign, happy God of the Bible. “This is a unique and precious book that everybody should read more than once.” —J.I. PACKER, Regent College, Vancouver, British Columbia

Download or read book The Next Testament written by Charles and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2022-11-02 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Friends, welcome to the next testament! The truth be known from the start, the ideas of The Next Testament: Into the Adulthood of Civilization are not the ideas of the verse writer. The ideas of the next testament are the Truth of Creation, and as such, they belong to all selves of Civilization. We encourage you to read the ideas of The Next Testament with the opened mind of enlightened goodwill golden rule honesty. Granted, at times the verse may seem simultaneously simple and mysteriously convoluted. It may even seem flippant and frivolous at times. But let it be known, the ideas are the absolute Truth of Creation, and you will see it all makes perfect enlightened sense that the Truth of Creation belongs to all selves of Civilization. But the proof? Where is some proof that the ideas of The Next Testament: Into the Adulthood of Civilization are the Truth of Creation meant for all selves of Civilization? Meager versing aside, the proof is in the Truth itself. Yes, the ideas contained in The Next Testament are the Truth of Creation and will be seen in and accepted and applied from the evolved Adulthood view that self is the self of all selves, and selfish is the selfish of all selves of the body politic of Civilization. And the reality of the actualized happiness of all selves pending into our adulthood has evolved up from stage to stage and age to age as our view and understanding and devotion to universal truth has evolved. From in the beginning, the purely physical truth of embryonic Prehistory, to the Creation given first breath emergence with viable soul into blind Ancient infancy, up to and through the self-selfish emotional truth of our Classic youth--from which, let us remember, we had to be saved, Civilization--into the higher emotional idealism of Middle Ages adolescence, there to be tempered with the truth of logic of Enlightened democratic young adulthood, we have evolved. And now here we are in our twenty-first century, ready for Adulthood devotion to fully free free will truth of Creation's wisdom. Civilization, our view of the Truth has evolved to the obviousness of the Adulthood view that the happy actualization of Civilization is the happy actualization of all selves of Civilization. And be reminded, Civilization, agreement to, and with, the guidance of the congruent expectations of the testaments with parent Creation--the Old, the New, and now the Next--has meant all the difference in our evolutionary growth up from Age to Age. Yes, through the Old, the New, and now the Next, our view of the Truth has evolved age to age from the self of self-selfish up to the adulthood view of the self of all selves. Please read The Next Testament in the spirit of the highest view of Creation's Truth.

Download or read book Developmental Theism written by Peter Forrest and published by Clarendon Press. This book was released on 2007-01-18 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a work of speculative theology based on three themes: that a version of materialism is a help not a hindrance in philosophical theology; that God develops; and that this development is on the whole kenotic, in other words an abandonment of power. Peter Forrest argues that the resulting kenotic theism might well be correct. He claims that his hypothesis concerning God is better than known rival hypotheses, including atheism, and that if there is no unknown better hypothesis it is good enough to be believed. In the Introduction he offers a defense of the type of metaphysical speculation on which his thesis rests. Elsewhere in the book he defends his 'moderate materialism', expounds the notion of the 'Primordial God', and discusses how God changes. In the resulting account, Forrest reconciles the unloving and unlovable God of the philosophers with the God of the Abrahamic tradition. In a quasi-Gnostic fashion he puts the blame for evils on the Primordial God and argues that after God has become loving, the divine powers of intervention are limited by the natural order. In the final two chapters he applies this kenotic theism to specifically Christian teachings, notably the Trinity and the Incarnation.
