  • Author : Kary Oberbrunner
  • Publisher : Zondervan
  • Release : 2010-09-07
  • ISBN : 0310565529
  • Pages : 210 pages

Download or read book Your Secret Name written by Kary Oberbrunner and published by Zondervan. This book was released on 2010-09-07 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We all have one–a Secret Name that is. The Bible tells us so. Yet few of us know ours. Ignorantly, we’re stuck, caught up in the “Name Game.”Using the story of the biblical patriarch Jacob as a backdrop, author Kary Oberbrunner calls us to stop accepting the world’s labels and start wrestling with God to discover our true identity. Jacob spent years living out the meaning of his earthly name: “deceiver.” Caught up in pretending to be someone he wasn’t, he was unaware that God would build a nation through him, unaware that Jesus would be one of his descendents, unaware of the lands he would inherit. Then he heard God speak his true name and the future God had for him unfolded. Oberbrunner reminds us that we’ll be unable to discern what God wants to build through us until we discover how God has seen us all along. In Your Secret Name, readers will find the courage to abandon what they know in order to become who they were born to be.

Book Who Do You Think You Are

Download or read book Who Do You Think You Are written by Mark Driscoll and published by HarperChristian + ORM. This book was released on 2013-01-07 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: WHO ARE YOU? WHAT DEFINES YOU? WHAT IS YOUR IDENTITY? How you answer those questions affects every aspect of your life: personal, public, and spiritual. So it’s vital to get the answer right. Pastor and best-selling author Mark Driscoll believes false identity is at the heart of many struggles—and that you can overcome them by having your true identity in Christ. In Who Do You Think You Are?, Driscoll explores the question, “What does it mean to be ‘in Christ’?” In the process he dissects the false-identity epidemic and, more important, provides the only solution—Jesus. “This book will give you an unshakeable, biblical understanding of who you are in Christ. When you know who you are, you’ll know what to do.” —Craig Groeschel, Senior Pastor of LifeChurch.tv and author of Soul Detox, Clean Living in a Contaminated World “I spent years in ministry for Christ without understanding my identity in Christ. I know now that I was not alone. When, by the grace of God, we understand who we are in Christ, everything else can crumble and we will still be standing. I highly commend this book to you.” —Sheila Walsh, speaker and author of God Loves Broken People

  • ISBN : 0830898492
  • Pages : 197 pages

Download or read book Identity and Idolatry written by Richard Lints and published by InterVarsity Press. This book was released on 2015-08-10 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of Desiring God's Top 15 Books "So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them." (Genesis 1:27) Genesis 1:26-27 has served as the locus of most theological anthropologies in the central Christian tradition. However, Richard Lints observes that too rarely have these verses been understood as conceptually interwoven with the whole of the prologue materials of Genesis 1. The construction of the cosmic temple strongly hints that the "image of God" language serves liturgical functions. Lints argues that "idol" language in the Bible is a conceptual inversion of the "image" language of Genesis 1. These constructs illuminate each other, and clarify the canon's central anthropological concerns. The question of human identity is distinct, though not separate, from the question of human nature; the latter has far too frequently been read into the biblical use of image. Lints shows how the "narrative" of human identity runs from creation (imago Dei) to fall (the golden calf/idol, Exodus 32) to redemption (Christ as perfect image, Colossians 1:15-20). The biblical-theological use of image/idol is a thread through the canon that highlights the movements of redemptive history. In the concluding chapters of this New Studies in Biblical Theology volume, Lints interprets the use of idolatry as it emerges in the secular prophets of the nineteenth century, and examines the recent renaissance of interest in idolatry with its conceptual power to explain the "culture of desire." Addressing key issues in biblical theology, the works comprising New Studies in Biblical Theology are creative attempts to help Christians better understand their Bibles. The NSBT series is edited by D. A. Carson, aiming to simultaneously instruct and to edify, to interact with current scholarship and to point the way ahead.

This book was released on 2020-07-21 with total page 123 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The need for understanding our true identity is crucial. Without it we really don't know if we are coming or going and we will never know the full benefits of our "true birthright". As you read and study these chapters you will discover the true position, purpose, power, authority and destiny given to us by God. Luke 12:32 "Fear not little flock for it is the Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom. Knowing our true identity will bring forth the manifestation of Christ's dominion, and the ruling reigning authoritative rights of our God given inheritance on planet earth as a now reality. It's Christ's day, the day of the Lord manifesting forth in his people. A people that will allow him to open their eyes to his illuminating light of glory and understanding. God is ready to move in a generation that will reveal all of himself through Christ. And in a people unveiling mysteries and secrets or any type of ignorance (1 Cor.15:28). It is my prayer that you would travel through each chapter anticipating the destination and embracing "The True Identity" as your own divine inheritance while you maneuver through each revelation and thought in this book. This book “The Power of Knowing Your True Identity” is volume one of the Collection Trilogy “The Chronicles of the Sons of God”.

Book The Identity and Attributes of God

Download or read book The Identity and Attributes of God written by Terry Lee Johnson and published by Banner of Truth. This book was released on 2019-03-08 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The problem identified by the prophet Hosea in his day is still with us today - 'There is no...knowledge of God in the land' (Hos. 4:1). We were made to know God. We were saved to know God. Jesus said, 'This is eternal life that they know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom you have sent' (John 17:3). Our chief end and purpose is to know God and thereby to honour and enjoy him. These pages explore God's identity. The God who is Father, Son, and Holy Spirit is also Creator, Governor, and Redeemer. This one true God is infinitely and unchangingly holy, just, good, and loving. This work is offered with the hope that it might promote the true knowledge of the true God. As Matthew Henry said, 'To know the perfections of the divine nature, the unsearchable riches of divine grace, to be led into the mystery of our redemption and reconciliation by Christ, this is food; such knowledge as this is a feast to the soul.'

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "When you look in the mirror and begin examining the concept of the image that is being portrayed back at you, what do you see?" This question is one that perhaps everyone encounters in life. The difference is some look at the image and submit to it, others look at the image and become depressed by it, while few look at the image and say to themselves "I've got to do some reconstruction, because this is not who I see myself to be." No matter which category you are in I declare to you that there is help for you, and despite what people may have told you, this help is closer than you think. The truth of the matter is that we all have these preconceived images of who it is that we would like to be, but many times they get clouded or misconstrued as life goes on. How? People are the primary factor. They speak things about you that are not true, they speak things over you of which they have no clue, or they speak things to you which impacts what you do. Then, there are life's obstacles that weigh in attempting to weigh you down as a means of preventing you from becoming who you were created to be. Through it all, ask yourself these two questions. Are you ready to change the course of your life? Are you ready to be the best you that God created you to be? If so, join Kean R. Jones as he provides the foundation and framework of how to Discover Your True Identity. More than just a book, it's an adventure that will challenge your current mindset while encouraging you to embrace your pre-ordained, pre-destined, and God given Identity. Let's ride!

Download or read book His Name Forever written by Iris A. Foreman and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2011-06-23 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you have ever picked up a Bible, attended a church, or entered into a spiritual conversation with a Christian, you are probably well acquainted with these two terms: "God" and "the Lord". Both are frequently used in reference to the creator of the heavens and the earth. For many people, those words actually represent His name. What about to you? Is "God" His name? Or, is it "the Lord"? His Name Forever is a must read for anyone who wants to know His true name. It is a book that will help you understand why all those other terms ever used are not His Name Forever. There is a Story Behind the Name of God that explains its significance to Him and to those who have worshiped Him in times past. There is only one name that He revealed as His own. Is that name even relevant today? As you read, you will see that this one name did not change, but people did. From the time of Seth in the Old Testament to the era of the Messiah in the New Testament, the Almighty One had the same name. This book will explain, in an easy to follow way, why so few people, even today, call Him by His name. After reading this book that is well-researched and supported by biblical and other historical documents, you will be challenged to call Him by His Name Forever.

  • ISBN : 1449771874
  • Pages : 254 pages

Download or read book Called by God s Name written by Linda Leggett and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2012-12-20 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When God named himself it was more than a label. He stressed that his name represented his character and those who bore it must accurately display that character in their words and deeds. Misunderstanding this basic biblical truth has led to the reduction of the third commandment to simply a language issue in popular culture. However, its correct understanding and preaching should be the start of knowing Gods dealings with his Old and New Testament people as well as the template for todays believers. Initially establishing the consistency of the testamental record through themes and the use of the Old Testament by Jesus and the New Testament writers, the author displays some of Gods characteristics found in both testaments, which illustrate ethical requirements for his church and inspire the responses of his people. The fruit of a lifetime of study of the Old Testament, distilling biblical wisdom, written concisely, and understandable to the average church member, though informed by much scholarly reading. As a gifted biblical expositor and much-loved classroom teacher, Leggett again pushes us into Old Testament study to inform us of the New and inspires us to more whole-hearted devotion to the God who has called us by his name. Dr. Terrance Tiessen, emeritus professor of theology and ethics, Providence Seminary Leggetts final work captures his love for Scripture as he carefully explores the theme of Christian identity, drawing on his thorough familiarity with the biblical texts and his impressive knowledge of Old Testament scholarship. Accessibility in style and practical insights make it a valuable resource for the lay person to deepen their understanding of the Scriptures and the God of whom they speak. John Franklin, IMAGO director; adjunct at Tyndale Seminary and Trinity College, Toronto With warmth and passion the author traces specific themes through both testaments, illustrating their unity of witness to the character of God.

  • ISBN : 9780989358255
  • Pages : 330 pages

Download or read book The Game of God written by Arthur Hancock and published by Aeogia Press. This book was released on 2014-11-20 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A God for the Twenty-first Century. Does life have any meaning or purpose? Does God exist? How can you reconcile a loving God with cruelty and suffering? This book makes the radical claim that the universe is literally a game of God. One purpose of the universe is for God to enjoy the vast array of experiences that God, as an unlimited being, cannot experience: life and death, joy and pain, beginning and end, fear and hate, happiness and sorrow. In order to have a realistic experience of limitation, God must forget that She-He-It is God. The universe is a game in which God forgets His-Her-Its identity and in the process of playing remembers who She-He-It is. We are not separate creatures who are victims of existence. We are expressions of God experiencing limitation and overcoming it. We are God in disguise. Human suffering comes from the erroneous belief that who we really are is our personality, or ego-identity. Our lives are a constant battle for the survival of a mistaken identity; we spend most of our time either flighting from reality or fighting it. Love and transcendence lie in the cessation of survival behavior, in the acceptance of reality (what is). Love is the experience of unconditional acceptance of what is. With a cartoon on every left-hand page illustrating the text on the right, formatted like poetry, these ideas are presented in a light and humorous manner. Tim Allen says, "If you really have your shit together, read this book." (From the suggested reading list in his bestseller, "I'm Not Really Here.") Oprah called it, "A great book about God." This is a revised edition of the 1993 book, which reflects the latest thinking of the authors and includes some new cartoons.

Download or read book Echoes of a Prophet written by Gary T. Manning Jr. and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2004-12-01 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Echoes of a Prophet examines intertextual connections to Ezekiel found in John and in Second Temple literature. The Dead Sea Scrolls contain many allusions to a number of Ezekiel's oracles, while other Second Temple works refer to only a few of Ezekiel's oracles, and those only rarely. In each case, Manning examines the evidence for the presence of the allusions, studies the implied interpretational methods, and comments on the function of the allusion in advancing the author's ideas. He also analyzes John's allusions to Ezekiel: the good shepherd, the vine, the opened heavens, imagery from the "dry bones" vision, and water symbolism. He observes that John has a few unique tendencies: he alludes to all five of Ezekiel's "oracles of hope" and primarily uses that imagery to describe the giving of the Holy Spirit and new life through Jesus.

Download or read book Slave written by John F. MacArthur and published by Thomas Nelson. This book was released on 2012-11-05 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A COVER-UP OF BIBLICAL PROPORTIONS... Centuries ago, English translators perpetrated a fraud in the New Testament, and it’s been purposely hidden and covered up ever since. Your own Bible is probably included in the cover-up! In this book, which includes a study guide for personal or group use, John MacArthur unveils the essential and clarifying revelation that may be keeping you from a fulfilling—and correct—relationship with God. It’s powerful. It’s controversial. And with new eyes you’ll see the riches of your salvation in a radically new way. What does it mean to be a Christian the way Jesus defined it? MacArthur says it all boils down to one word: SLAVE “We have been bought with a price. We belong to Christ. We are His own possession.” Endorsements: "Dr. John MacArthur is never afraid to tell the truth and in this book he does just that. The Christian's great privilege is to be the slave of Christ. Dr. MacArthur makes it clear that this is one of the Bible's most succinct ways of describing our discipleship. This is a powerful exposition of Scripture, a convincing corrective to shallow Christianity, a masterful work of pastoral encouragement...a devotional classic." - Dr. R. Albert Mohler, President, The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary "John MacArthur expertly and lucidly explains that Jesus frees us from bondage into a royal slavery that we might be His possession. Those who would be His children must, paradoxically, be willing to be His slaves." - Dr. R.C. Sproul "Dr. John MacArthur's teaching on 'slavery' resonates in the deepest recesses of my 'inner-man.' As an African-American pastor, I have been there. That is why the thought of someone writing about slavery as being a 'God-send' was the most ludicrous, unconscionable thing that I could have ever imagined...until I read this book. Now I see that becoming a slave is a biblical command, completely redefining the idea of freedom in Christ. I don't want to simply be a 'follower' or even just a 'servant'...but a 'slave'." - The Rev. Dr. Dallas H. Wilson, Jr., Vicar, St. John's Episcopal Chapel, Charleston, SC
