Download or read book From Revolution to Revelation written by Tara Brabazon and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-09-29 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Revolution to Revelation offers a new paradigm for Cultural Studies. Tara Brabazon explores our understanding of our own past and the collective past we share with others through popular culture. She investigates Generation X, the ’post-youth’ generation born between 1961 and 1981, and the popular cultural literacies that are the basis of this imagining community. She looks at the ways in which popular culture offers a vehicle for memory, providing the building blocks of identity - the politics and passion of life captured in an unforgettable song, an amazing nightclub, or an unexpected goal in extra time. For a fan, the joy and exhilaration is enough, but it is the task of cultural studies to understand why particular cultural forms survive the passage of time and space. Brabazon argues, with Lawrence Grossberg, that Cultural Studies is ’the Generation X of the academic world’. She tracks its journey away from Marxism and subcultural theory and looks at its future. In particular she explores the possibilities of popular memory studies in reclaiming and repairing the discipline of Cultural Studies - making it as relevant and as revelatory as in its revolutionary past.

Book excerpt: Move over Boomers, Xers, and Millennials; there's a new generation--making up more than 25 percent of the US population--that represents a seismic cultural shift. Born approximately between 1993 and 2012, Generation Z is the first truly post-Christian generation, and they are poised to challenge every church to rethink its role in light of a rapidly changing culture. From the award-winning author of The Rise of the Nones comes this enlightening introduction to the youngest generation. James Emery White explains who this generation is, how it came to be, and the impact it is likely to have on the nation and the faith. Then he reintroduces us to the ancient countercultural model of the early church, arguing that this is the model Christian leaders must adopt and adapt if we are to reach members of Generation Z with the gospel. He helps readers rethink evangelistic and apologetic methods, cultivate a culture of invitation, and communicate with this connected generation where they are. Pastors, ministry leaders, youth workers, and parents will find this an essential and hopeful resource.
Download or read book The Terminal Generation written by Gary King and published by . This book was released on 2016-04-02 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a fresh look at the subject of eschatology, which is the study of end-time prophetic events. It is not locked into the traditional thinking and teachings espoused in the last two hundred years. The views expressed in this book are the result of a comparison of what Jesus taught on this subject through the Old Testament prophets, what Jesus taught on this important subject while He was on the earth, and what Jesus taught from heaven to His apostles after His ascension. The basic premise embraced while comparing these is that what Jesus taught in the Old Testament, or what He taught while on the earth, or what He taught after His ascension, would never contradict one another. What Jesus taught on earth was spoken in plain earthly language whereas much of the other teachings were generally spoken in parabolic language (in heavenly/figurative language). In interpreting parabolic language, there can be numerous possibilities as to God's intended meaning. However, many of these possibilities can be eliminated by comparing them with what Jesus taught plainly during His earthly ministry. Any interpretation that contradicts what Jesus taught in the Olivet Discourse cannot be the intended meaning of that which He taught in any of the prophetic books of the Bible such as Daniel, Isaiah, Joel, or Revelation. This book is not intended to rehash the popular, traditional teachings of our day on eschatology, but rather to open up the minds of the readers to explore and consider concepts and views that lie outside of the box of the commonly accepted teachings being taught to this present generation. God's Word declares that some of these prophetic things will be sealed or hidden from man until the last days of this age. However, God promises to reveal that which has been hidden to the last day/terminal generation.

Download or read book Revelations written by Elaine Pagels and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2012-03-06 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A startling exploration of the history of the most controversial book of the Bible, by the bestselling author of Beyond Belief. Through the bestselling books of Elaine Pagels, thousands of readers have come to know and treasure the suppressed biblical texts known as the Gnostic Gospels. As one of the world's foremost religion scholars, she has been a pioneer in interpreting these books and illuminating their place in the early history of Christianity. Her new book, however, tackles a text that is firmly, dramatically within the New Testament canon: The Book of Revelation, the surreal apocalyptic vision of the end of the world . . . or is it? In this startling and timely book, Pagels returns The Book of Revelation to its historical origin, written as its author John of Patmos took aim at the Roman Empire after what is now known as "the Jewish War," in 66 CE. Militant Jews in Jerusalem, fired with religious fervor, waged an all-out war against Rome's occupation of Judea and their defeat resulted in the desecration of Jerusalem and its Great Temple. Pagels persuasively interprets Revelation as a scathing attack on the decadence of Rome. Soon after, however, a new sect known as "Christians" seized on John's text as a weapon against heresy and infidels of all kinds-Jews, even Christians who dissented from their increasingly rigid doctrines and hierarchies. In a time when global religious violence surges, Revelations explores how often those in power throughout history have sought to force "God's enemies" to submit or be killed. It is sure to appeal to Pagels's committed readers and bring her a whole new audience who want to understand the roots of dissent, violence, and division in the world's religions, and to appreciate the lasting appeal of this extraordinary text.

Download or read book The Revelation of Angelic Creation written by Joseph R. Forman and published by Xulon Press. This book was released on 2010-03 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Move over Augustine! Look out Aquinas! This is the first exegetical work on day one of Genesis to agree with all Scripture. With the profound simplicity of a layman yet the penetrating density of a mystic, this text is a fountain of Scriptural revelation to guide both heart and mind. Unparalleled, "The Revelation of Angelic Creation" for the first time draws back the veil on "what" Wisdom is and its composite origin (the first hypostasis); the angelic creation: how it came to be and its composite nature; the "when," "how," and "why" of the angelic rebellion and fall, along with the restructuring of the unseen cosmos in the aftermath of said rebellion. Also, for good measure, the two-yes two!-gardens of Eden will be exposed. This work will set new theological precedence in all these areas and much more. Scriptural discourse is now forever altered. That which was spoken in the darkness of pre-creation, finally, is brought to light. Joe is the run-of-the-mill regular kind of guy who friends and acquaintances have called a prophet. Born and raised in southern California, his employment background consists of Production Control, Sales, Painting Contracting and a stint as a Drug and Alcohol Counselor. His hobbies include Bonsai, Koi, and stained-glass. Marital Status: still pursuing Sophia (Wisdom).
Download or read book The Revelation written by R. J. Plugge and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2018-12-19 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jesus was confronted by the leadership within Jerusalem during the last week of his earthly ministry (Matthew 21–23). He confounded the elders, scribes (teachers), chief priests, Pharisees, and Sadducees. He pronounced eight (8) woes on the scribes and Pharisees and called them a brood of vipers. He told the leaders of Jerusalem that judgment for the righteous bloodshed from all those on earth would be cast upon that last generation in Judea living during the first century AD (Matthew 23:36; 24:34). It would include their killing the Messiah as they filled up the measure of their guilt (Matthew 23:32). Their temple had already been declared desolate (Matthew 23:38). That Great Tribulation was recorded from heaven’s perspective on a scroll (Matthew 24:21). John was allowed to record his view of those scenes for us in chapters 6–11 of The Revelation of Jesus the Christ within Heaven. They’re discussed here. They historically verified Jesus’s pronouncements. The last seven were announced with trumpets to show Jesus used His power from the Throne of God (Revelation 11:17).

Download or read book All Things New written by Tim Snider and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2011-10-05 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All Things New is not just another book on Bible prophecy. Are we the terminal generation? Are we the generation of mankind that will see the fulfillment of its prophecies? This book answers those questions. The book of Revelation needs to be engaged, more now than in any era of human history. However, many recent books on the subject of Revelation take a much too scholarly approach to a book that was written to be understood by the common man. All Things New is a verse-by-verse commentary/guide for the Christian or non-Christian reader who may simply want to know what the book of Revelation is all about and what its significance is for us today. Included are definitions of the basic terms related to the Church and Christianity that a non-believer might not understand but are necessary for a clear, comprehensive understanding of Revelation. This book is not just about scary beasts, incomprehensible images, and mind-boggling catastrophes and judgments. Its also a book of vindication for the people of God, a demonstration of God's eternal justice, and most importantly, a book of hope for a world that seems to have lost its way. There are storm clouds on the horizon, and a cold night of despair will follow, but the night is never so cold as just before the dawn. May everyone who reads this book find joy, peace, and tranquil hope for the future in the person of Jesus Christ. A new day is coming, and a new world will dawn in which God will indeed make All Things New.

Download or read book Psalm 83 the Missing Prophecy Revealed written by Bill Salus and published by . This book was released on 2013-01-15 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An ancient prophecy written over 3000 years ago reveals that the Arab states and terrorist populations, which are identified on the front cover of this book, will soon confederate in order to wipe Israel off of the map. Their mandate is clear: They have said, “Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation, That the name of Israel may be remembered no more.” (Psalm 83:4). Psalm 83 predicts a climactic, concluding Arab-Israeli war that has eluded the discernment of today’s top Bible scholars, and yet, the Middle East stage appears to be set for the fulfillment of this prophecy. While many of today’s top Bible experts are predicting that Russia, Iran, Turkey, Libya, and several other countries are going to invade Israel according a prophecy in Ezekiel 38, this timely book explains how Psalm 83 occurs prior. Discover how Israel defeats their ancient Arab enemies, and why Americans need to stand beside Israel in this coming war!
