Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Much of what is preached and taught among Christians today concerns the earthly ministry of the Lord Jesus, that is, the work He did during His life on the earth. However, just as the person of Christ has two aspects, so does His ministry. While He was on earth, He was the man Jesus. Since His ascension into heaven, however, He is the glorified Christ. His earthly ministry lasted for only a limited time, but His heavenly ministry is eternal; it will never end. What is Christ doing now? In this book, Witness Lee answers this question, opening up the second part of Christ’s ministry, the heavenly ministry, the ministry that continues today.

Download or read book Working with Oneness written by Llewellyn Vaughan-Lee and published by The Golden Sufi Center. This book was released on 2002-05-02 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Humanity has been given access to the secrets of oneness, but we need to learn how to work with them. Working with Oneness brings mysticism into the center of the marketplace, into the world of business and technology, and shows how we can work with it in everyday life. The dynamic energy of oneness has the potential to heal the planet and revolutionize life more than we can imagine, but it requires our individual participation and awareness to become fully alive. The energy of oneness is already present but waiting to be lived, and Llewellyn Vaughan-Lee provides a blueprint for working consciously with this energy. As we understand how our consciousness affects the whole fabric of life, the potential for real global change comes alive. Llewellyn Vaughan-Lee stresses the need to change from hierarchical, patriarchal power structures to organic patterns that allow for the free flow of energy and ideas. Through these patterns the dynamic energy of oneness can become part of everyday life. Working with Oneness includes a number of additional important topics, including: the changing energy structure of the planet and how to work with it; the power of individual consciousness; the danger of the desire for spiritual security; the return of joy to everyday life; the awakening of the heart of the world; a new understanding of magic; the use of the imagination; and mystical participation in life with the energy of oneness. Working with Oneness offers guidance on how to work with the energy of oneness, to learn how to participate in life free of the patterns of the past, so that the divine can come alive in every moment of every day. Working with Oneness is mystical activism at its most potent. “There is a growing and eager audience waiting for a vision of unity consciousness... Working with Oneness offers a salutary antidote to worn-out antagonisms. It challenges readers to join other kindred souls in a mystical activism that can bring new hope to humanity.” —Spirituality & Health “A book filled with wonder and the kind of insights that can leap out to your heart and gladden you for having read them. It's words are simple and straightforward—always a blessing—but its message it the most vital and important for the time in which we live. I recommend it.” —David Spangler, author, Blessings: the Art and the Practice

Download or read book Hidden and Revealed written by Dmytro Bintsarovskyi and published by Lexham Press. This book was released on 2021-07-14 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A major contribution to ecumenical reflection on the doctrine of God. The past century has seen renewed interest in the doctrine of God. While theological traditions disagree, their shared commitment to Nicene orthodoxy provides a common language for thinking and speaking about God. This dialogue has deepened our understanding of this shared way of thinking about God, but little has been done across ecumenical lines to explore God's hiddenness in revelation. In Hidden and Revealed, Dmytro Bintsarovskyi explores the hiddenness and revelation of God in two separate theological streams—Reformed and Orthodox. Bintsarovskyi shows that an understanding of both traditions reflects a deep structure of shared language, history, and commitments, while nevertheless reflecting real differences. With Herman Bavinck and John Meyendorff as his guides, Bintsarovskyi advances ecumenical dialogue on a doctrine central to our knowledge of God.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What's special about Oneness Pentecostals? In this penetrating analysis of Oneness theology and practice, Gregory Boyd reveals the experience of four years of personal involvement in a Oneness church. Although Oneness Pentecostals' belief in Christ's deity establishes some common ground with other Christians, their aggressive denial of the Trinity has nonetheless fostered their indisputably sub-Christian ideas about God's character, about salvation, and about Christian living.

Download or read book The Oneness of God and the Doctrine of the Trinity written by Kulwant Singh Boora and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2009-10-26 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The teaching that God is one was paramount in Old Testament theology, since the introduction of the New Testament the concept of one God continued and was expanded by and through Jesus in Second Temple Monotheism. With this in mind, the Bible does not teach the concept of the Trinitarian doctrine. The Apostles, including the New Testament Church, were pure monotheistic and oneness believers knowing and understanding that God is one and not one substance and three persons. Therefore, this book has addressed a variety of issues and provided a body of literature and authority supporting the position that God is numerically one and that the Trinitarian doctrine is a human construct and product that is unscriptural and unbiblical, which evolved over the centuries being fueled by man made creeds and ideologies. It is not surprising then that even Trinitarians struggle to define the Trinitarian doctrine suggesting it is a mystical revelation, when in fact, others have argued that it is incomprehensible.

She cried out her soul unto the Lord and asked Him this question, "Lord, how can I know you in the power of your resurrection according to Philippians 3:10?" She had felt years of suffering from the enemy's strongholds, and now after total deliverance, she writes this book, Entering Into His Oneness, to share with her readers how she overcame later obstacles in life. Thelma believes in unity and sound doctrine. It is what she wants her readers to experience from her book. She says it is like having mana from heaven, and the people who eat (read) will sustain nourishment from His Word, so they can be purposeful as God is edified. She is purposefully equipped with the necessary power, gifts, and calling for a victorious life. Thelma has encouraged many by sharing her testimony. She now wants to share with everyone who will read her book that they, too, can enter into His Oneness and become one with God and obtain His wealth, strength and empowerment, but more importantly, they can discover God's wonderful and perfect plan for their life in this present season. It is incredible and exciting, and it will transform your life. You, too, may know God in this extraordinary power. You can truly understand how God causes us to forget those things that are behind and move toward His glorious Oneness and pass it on to others. God's blessings are constantly flowing for all who are under His covenant and His Oneness. May all be blessed who read this book and enter into His Oneness.

Download or read book In Jesus Name written by David A. Reed and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2019-08-26 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “In Jesus’ Name” tells the story of the third stream of Pentecostalism, which emerged during the formative years of the Pentecostal Revival. This is the first comprehensive study of the origins, history and theology of Oneness Pentecostalism, the heterodox movement expelled from the Assemblies of God in 1916 for its rejection of the doctrine of the Trinity and insistence on water baptism in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Reed traces the movement, now estimated at 14 million world wide, to its Pietist and Evangelical roots. Its distinctive doctrine is a radical trajectory of a christocentric reaction that had already begun in early Pentecostalism. Reed’s study shows the inadequacy of the label of heresy in light of its thoroughgoing Pentecostal identity and theology of the Name of God. This title was granted the PNEUMA award for 2009.

Download or read book The Whole Elephant Revealed written by Marja de Vries and published by John Hunt Publishing. This book was released on 2012-05-25 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Whole Elephant Revealed offers clear insights into the existence and operation of universal laws and the golden ratio. It is a synthesis based on common insights found in all wisdom traditions into the operation of universal laws on the one hand and on cutting-edge scientific discoveries that are in line with those insights on the other hand. These principles are called universal because they work on all levels of existence, apply to everything that exist and create order and harmony in the universe. Insights into the operation of the universal laws reveals a whole new worldview. It helps us to understand how everything works in the universe, who we really are and how we can make conscious choices that are more in line with these universal laws. Above all it helps us to understand what works and what doesne(tm)t work in the long term. Everything that operates in line with the universal laws, follows the path of least resistance and is in harmony with the greater whole. It makes us realize that while everything in the universe works in harmony with these principles, many aspects of our personal life and our Western culture are not in line with the operation of these underlying principles. If we choose to act in line with the operation of the universal laws, it will go easier, will be more in tune with who we really are and more in harmony with the greater whole. This choice is hard to make though, if we done(tm)t know those principles. For that reason the rediscovery of the working of these principles seems to be of extreme importance. In this time of great changes and global unbalance a growing number of people begin to feel the need for a clear and well-founded insight into the universal laws, because this gives an understanding of what is needed to restore the balance and harmony in ourselves as well as worldwide. Because the nature of these principles is universal, they apply to all aspects of our individual and social life. Therefore they can be used as a frame of reference for all personal and social transformations which aim at a greater harmony within ourselves and with the greater whole.

Download or read book The Ministry Vol 12 No 02 written by Various Authors and published by Living Stream Ministry. This book was released on 2008-02-01 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This issue of The Ministry contains a complete record of the nine messages given during the 2007 International Training for Elders and Responsible Ones in Mexico City, Mexico, October 4-6, 2007. The general subject of the training was "Knowing and Caring for the Church." This knowing is a knowing by revelation and by the experience of life. We need to know the Lord, to know God's economy, the divine dispensing, and to know the church. Our care for the church is limited by our knowing of the church, and our behavior and proper conduct in the church as the house of God is determined by our knowing of the church. This is a set principle. The burden in these messages is that we must first know the church in order to care for the church. If we do not know the church, we cannot care for the church in a proper way. Therefore, we need to be those who know the church in the way that God knows the church, and then we need to care for the church in the way that God cares for the church. Our knowing the church according to revelation and the experiences of life brings in the proper caring. We must care for the church according to the revelation, the vision, and the experiences of life that have constituted our inner knowing of the church. Therefore, our knowing of the church, which is progressive, must increase. We also include letters from Romania concerning the Lord's move there.

Download or read book Conflict and Agreement in the Church Volume 1 written by T.F. Torrance and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2023-01-01 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: T.F. Torrance’s Conflict and Agreement in the Church gathers together his most influential essays and articles on topics relating to ecumenism. Himself involved heavily in the ecumenical movement, he wrote that ‘ours must be the task of learning together again how to confess, like the early Church, faith in Jesus Christ as Saviour and God in all its breadth and length and height and depth, and therefore in the overflowing love of God.’ Out of this conviction grew a comprehensive doctrine of the Church ‘in which our differences are lost sight of because they are destroyed from behind by a masterful faith in the Saviour of men.’ In this first volume, Torrance presents a set of essays engaging theologically with different denominations, along with responses to particular problems facing the ecumenical project. In particular, writing after the third world conference on faith and order, he addresses the hopes and barriers it raised to closer ecumenical relations. Throughout, Torrance’s acute awareness of contrasting theological principles establishes a firm basis for further progress, without obscuring the doctrinal and ecclesiological differences that remain.

Download or read book The Mind Exerciser written by Glen C. Cutlip and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2020-11-06 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Exercises in opposites reconciliation is a means of bringing to awareness the unity of the opposites of being, revealing the third part, the neutronic core of being, which becomes a threefold reconciliation of one’s threefold being within the Consciousness of God. We are led to realize that the three parts of being are interchangeable parts of the same thing. Inasmuch as it is not an easy thing to bring awareness the nature of one’s being as it is created within the Consciousness of God, there are lots of repetitions in the exercises within this book. It is the Christ Self of one’s being in God that reconciles the opposites of being within the Kingdom of god and delivers the Kingdom unto God that God may be realized to be the all in all within all. Accordingly, the reconciliation of all things unto God is the reconciliation of any and all seeming opposites that come to mind. It is a matter of losing and finding every part of an opposites hidden within its counterpart. Thus life and death are one in the other and there revealed. Life is revealed, yet hidden in death, and death is revealed, yet hidden in life. Life and death are inseparable parts of the same thing. Such is why one must lose life in order to find it. We come to realize that we must embrace both sides of an opposite, not just one ore the other. A life that denies its counterpart, death, is a life in part. Hearing that denies its counterpart, deafness, is hearing in part. Seeing that denies its counterpart, blindness, is seeing in part. Such is what the scriptures, both the Old and the New Testament, are ever seeking to reveal. The nature of the revelation of this insight is such that it may appear as a new revelation. However, when one becomes aware of this seemingly new revelation, one come to realize that it is a part of an everlasting message that is without beginning or end. What is new for the time is the doing away with the part, reconciling it with the whole, in order to see what is in transonic reality. Accordingly, one has been, is now, and forever will be confronted with this message, for it is a part of the nature one’s being as it is ever being created in the image of God, the all in all of being.

Download or read book The Ministry Vol 12 No 06 written by Various Authors and published by Living Stream Ministry. This book was released on 2008-06-01 with total page 179 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This issue of The Ministry contains a complete record of the eight messages given during the 2008 International Training for Elders and Responsible Ones in Anaheim, California, April 2-4, 2008. The general subject of this series of messages is "The Vision, Experience, and Practice of the All-inclusive Oneness." These messages are a continuation of the messages given in the previous International Training for Elders and Responsible Ones in Mexico City, Mexico, October 4-6, 2007 (see The Ministry Magazine, vol. 12 no. 2). The final two messages of that training (Messages 8 and 9) are an introduction to this training. In this volume, we will see that the all-inclusive oneness is actually a person--the all-inclusive Christ. The all-inclusive Christ is the all-inclusive Spirit, who is the all-inclusive processed and consummated Triune God. Therefore, the all-inclusive oneness is actually the all-inclusive Spirit as the processed and consummated Triune God, united, mingled, and incorporated with all the genuine believers in Christ. Moreover, we will also see that this all-inclusive oneness is the expression of God. God is expressed as oneness because He is oneness itself. There is no oneness outside of the Triune God; hence, when He is expressed, He is expressed as a marvelous, mysterious, divine, and mystical oneness. We also include a report concerning the Lord's move in Ethiopia.
