Download or read book A Treatise on Heavenly Mindedness written by Thomas Jollie and published by . This book was released on 2015-01-21 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thomas Jollie (1629-1703) was a zealous puritan preacher with superior abilities, an active spirit, and humble disposition. He was held in high esteem and influence in the churches of Christ, which he directed to the general good and the glory of God.Few of Jollie's works survive today. This puritan gem on heavenly mindedness is exceedingly rich with Scripture, and dripping with praise to Jesus Christ. Jollie covers in this work the primary doctrine that, "the saints' holy calling out of the world, and their afflicted condition in it is, that they are heavenly both in profession and practice." His text is Hebrews 11:16, "...they desire a better country." He shows that it is the good pleasure of God to appoint this course for his saints though their lives might be filled with suffering and affliction.Jollie teaches that Christians should learn this duty: that we freely subscribe and faithfully hold steadfast to God, no matter what our condition may be, and that we ought to drink down this bitter cup, knowing God will supply the needed grace.There is no Christian that has ever lived that has been removed from suffering or affliction in their life. Such a view supposes that manifold dangers and necessities, temptations and tribulations, attend the people of God in this world. But with the Lord is plenteous redemption. Knowing this, we should keep in mind that it is the good pleasure of God to work all good to his people in such a way and manner as may be, "to the praise of the glory of his grace."

Download or read book The Eastern Path to Heaven written by Michael Roach and published by Church Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2008-04 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Geshe Michael Roach and Christie McNally have explored together the ancient cities, rare manuscripts, and oral traditions of India and Tibet which bear witness to teachings of Thomas - the disciple that Jesus sent to the east. The Eastern Path to Heaven presents the great ideas that came to those lands through Thomas, and describes how we can use authentic Christian teachings of ancient Asia to achieve six goals of life: physical health; financial security; love; happiness; freedom from aging and death; and fulfilment in the service of others. Brief, accessible, chapters each open with a quotation by Jesus from the New Testament that speaks to achieving the six goals according to the wisdom of the Eastern side of the Christian family. Brief historical summaries show how the teachings of Jesus entered India with Thomas, traveling along the routes pioneered by Alexander the Great, and then reached Tibet. These sketches utilize information from Syrian, Coptic, Greek, Tibetan, and Sanskrit manuscripts, often translated by the authors for the first time.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When was the last time you stopped to consider the fact that you are going to die--or thought about what might take place after your death? When you stop to consider these critical issues in your life, you must set your mind to discovering the absolute truth. In Exploring Eternal Principles, author Jimmy Davis helps us understand that denying these principles--denying the truth--will not change the fact that, regardless of what you believe now, nothing changes the absolute truth. It remains the truth no matter what anyone says or does to the contrary. God Almighty has established some very profound and sacred principles for life--a set of fundamental rules and laws that have an eternal impact on your life, whether you believe them or not. Sadly enough, the real truth of God has been distorted and perverted in our world today. Perhaps you believe the world and its lies; the time has come for each of us to learn and understand the real truth and what it means. Now you are able to explore the Eternal Principles and discover for yourself what you must do to follow them with absolute faith and understanding.

Download or read book The Restoration of Christian Culture written by John Senior and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A sequel to The Death of Christian Culture, this spiritual treatise covers social, cultural, and political topics. It explores the importance of religious knowledge and faith to the health of a culture, provides a historical sketch of the change in cultural and educational standards over the last two centuries, and illustrates how literary and other visual arts either contribute to a culture or conspire to tear it down. Compared to a series of sermons, this analysis explains that there is a continuing extinction of the cultural patrimony of ancient Greece, Rome, medieval Europe, and the early modern period of Western civilization, owing to the pervasive bureaucratization, mechanization, and standardization of increasing materialism.

This book was released on 2020-07-20 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access volume makes an important contribution to the ongoing research on hope theory by combining insights from both its long history and its increasing multi-disciplinarity.

At the same time, it provides novel perspectives on often-overlooked historical theories and developments and challenges established views. The second part of the volume documents the state of the art of current research in hope across eight disciplines, which are philosophy, theology, psychology, economy, sociology, health studies, ecology, and development studies. Taken together, this volume provides an integrated view on hope as a multi-faced phenomenon.
