Download or read book The Leeds Liturgy written by Raymond Creed and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2010 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'The Leeds Liturgy' encourages Christians to worship God "in spirit and in truth" (John 4:24). It does this by proclaiming scripture teaching in a unique and interactive manner. An attempt is made to address the question; 'How can we honour God in our worship?' It helps rebuild Christianity by providing a practical worship aid and a more thorough engagement with Bible doctrine. By acting as a focus of unity, this resource could also sustain Christians during what could be very difficult times of persecution and mass deception. Specific sections are geared to helping Christians to discern the will of God by receiving and checking any guidance from the Holy Spirit. Objective tests are provided in order to help in the assessment of spiritual occurrences. Two articles at the end, argue that bible-based liturgies and creeds can be legitimate means of encountering God.
Download or read book The Phantom Conflict written by Raymond Creed and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2010 with total page 115 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'The Phantom Conflict' endeavours to answer the question, 'how can the Deity be both holy and loving at the same time?' It makes the key assumption that God possess the will and the power to reconcile apparently conflicting divine attributes like holiness and love. 'The Phantom Conflict' also argues that to exaggerate divine love at the expense of divine holiness (or vice-versa) only produces a warped version of Christianity. It breaks new ground by employing an interactive approach, with readers being positively encouraged to practically engage with its content. It also uses of ancient forms of Jewish Bible interpretation (called 'Midrash') to lend greater clarity to the issues as whether divine holiness is compatible with divine love. 'The Phantom Conflict' also has a well organized structure that divides information into 'bite-sized' chunks.

Download or read book Facing the Unthinkable written by Raymond Creed and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2010 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Facing the Unthinkable' anticipates the strong emotions that may be expressed by many Jewish people at the time of Israel's public recognition of the true Messiah. Near total despair will suddenly change to exuberant joy. It uses a scriptural, interactive liturgy which assumes that both the nation of Israel and the whole of humanity itself may well be on the brink of annihilation before this unique recognition takes place. God will allow such horrendous suffering to occur in order to break human resistance to His divine will and to highlight the futility of any attempt by Man himself to create a New World Order.It breaks new ground by using a creative liturgy exploring the spiritual and psychological processes which may possibly be experienced by a surviving remnant of Jewish people when they recognize the true Messiah.This book will be of particular interest to members of the Messianic Jewish Community and to any Christians with an interest in Israel and Bible Prophecy,

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the decades following the Second Vatican Council, Catholic liturgy became an area of considerable interest and debate, if not controversy, in the West. Mid-late 20th century liturgical scholarship, upon which the liturgical reforms of the Second Vatican Council were predicated and implemented, no longer stands unquestioned. The liturgical and ecclesial springtime the reforms of Paul VI were expected to facilitate has failed to emerge, leaving many questions as to their wisdom and value. Quo vadis Catholic liturgy? This Companion brings together a variety of scholars who consider this question at the beginning of the 21st century in the light of advances in liturgical scholarship, decades of post-Vatican II experience and the critical re-examination in the West of the question of the liturgy promoted by Benedict XVI. The contributors, each eminent in their field, have distinct takes on how to answer this question, but each makes a significant contribution to contemporary debate, making this Companion an essential reference for the study of Western Catholic liturgy in history and in the light of contemporary scholarship and debate.

Download or read book The Spirit of the Liturgy Commemorative Edition written by Joseph Ratzinger and published by Ignatius Press. This book was released on 2018-10-12 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In honor of its fortieth anniversary (1978–2018), Ignatius Press presents a special Commemorative Edition of one of the most important works written by Joseph Ratzinger, The Spirit of the Liturgy. This edition includes the earlier classic work with the same title by Servant of God Romano Guardini, a book that helped Ratzinger to "rediscover the liturgy in all its beauty, hidden wealth and time-transcending grandeur, to see it as the animating center of the Church, the very center of Christian life". Considered by Ratzinger devotees as one of his greatest works, this profound and beautifully written treatment of the liturgy will help readers to deepen their understanding of the"great prayer of the Church". The cardinal discusses fundamental misunderstandings of the Second Vatican Council's intentions for liturgical renewal, especially about the priest's orientation of prayer to the Father, the placement of the tabernacle in churches, and the posture of kneeling. Other important topics are the essence of worship, the Jewish roots of Christian prayer, the relationship of the liturgy to time and space, sacred art and music, and the active participation of the faithful in the Mass.
