Download or read book The Christian and Habitual Sin written by Thomas Bear and published by . This book was released on 2017-01-16 with total page 61 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jesus said that He came to give abundant life. Does this characterize your life? Or does it seem like you are in bondage to sinful attitudes or behaviors? The Apostle Paul warned that people whose lifestyles are controlled by sexual addiction, substance addiction, habitual overeating, jealousy, hostility or anger will not inherit the Kingdom of Heaven. (See Galatians 5:19-21.) These behaviors and attitudes directly contradict the life Jesus came to give. Anyone whose life is dominated by them cannot have peace if he is a Christian. The author was at one time addicted to very powerful drugs and sexual sins but has found deliverance through Jesus Christ. He wrote this book to help other Christians gain sustained deliverance through the application of biblical instruction, not based upon theory, but proven through his own experience. It is intentionally brief so it can be read in less than one hour. This book is a helpful counseling tool for pastors and good to give to any Christian who is battling habitual sin.

Download or read book Patterns of Sin in the Hebrew Bible written by Joseph Lam and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2016 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sin, often defined as a violation of divine will, remains a crucial idea in contemporary moral and religious discourse. However, the apparent familiarity of the concept obscures its origins within the history of Western religious thought. Joseph Lam examines a watershed moment in the development of sin as an idea-namely, within the language and culture of ancient Israel-by examining the primary metaphors used for sin in the Hebrew Bible. Drawing from contemporary theoretical insights coming out of linguistics and philosophy of language, this book identifies four patterns of metaphor that pervade the biblical texts: sin as burden, sin as an account, sin as path or direction, and sin as stain or impurity. In exploring the permutations of these metaphors and their development within the biblical corpus, Patterns of Sin in the Hebrew Bible offers a compelling account of how a religious and theological concept emerges out of the everyday thought-world of ancient Israel, while breaking new ground in its approach to metaphor in ancient texts. Far from being a timeless, stable concept, sin becomes intelligible only when situated in the matrix of ancient Israelite culture. In other words, sin is not as simple as it might seem.

Download or read book Christ Made Sin written by Samuel Crisp and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2016-02-14 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To prevent this our personal righteousness from touching anything as pertaining to Christ's righteousness, or as a condition on which God gives Christ's righteousness, I humbly offer to your perusal the effects of many hours pains to obtain the marrow out of the word "Christ made sin for us," and I hope, if it be read with an humble waiting for teaching from the Lord Jesus, you will find it beneficial towards the understanding, the riches of the free grace of God in Jesus Christ, to make him to be sin for us for his own name sake, not for our personal worthiness, and our evangelical righteousness sake. If any say, why doth this person trouble himself to write thus, in vindication of his father's sermons? It is for the sake of our dear Lord Jesus, whose glory is eclipsed by the setting up man's righteousness in the matter of justification; upon which account I may say, "the zeal of thine house hath eaten me up."
Download or read book The Fall and Sin written by Marguerite Shuster and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2004 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The devastating evils of recent history have brought about renewed interest in the Christian doctrine of sin. This volume explores with fresh insight and great seriousness the contemporary plausibility, meaning, and relevance of the biblical understanding of the Fall and its effects. Marguerite Shuster argues that certain aspects of the traditional doctrine of the Fall, including the belief that it took place in time and space, cannot simply be set aside without serious consequences for our doctrine of God and our understanding of human identity, dignity, and responsibility. She explores the nature and extent of sin and examines such problematic issues as "degrees" of sin and culpability. Despite the seriousness with which Shuster treats these topics, her discussion is not despairing but instead points to the redemption that God has accomplished in Christ. Filled with contemporary allusions and completed with model sermons on the Fall and sin, this volume is one of the best available studies of this key Christian doctrine.

Book excerpt: 'Sin Less' focuses on the sin nature and selfishness against which every Christian struggles--a subject more often avoided than brought into focus. But with this truthful assessment, the author gives helpful, Biblical guides for strengthening one's relationship with God, and getting real victory over the "Dark Guest." Most important for us, is its application to everyday life, and its challenge to be serious about personal holiness. --Jim Cummin, Life To Life Ministry 'Sin Less' challenges you to look deep within your own heart and examine your own sinfulness in the light of Christ's goodness. It encourages and guides you to live a life with the hope that as you trust in Christ you can have victory over your sin. --Deborah Bartow, Training and Support Manager for Wycliffe Associates
Download or read book Sin in the Sixties written by Maria C. Morrow and published by CUA Press. This book was released on 2016-11-04 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Confession reached its peak attendance in the early 1950s, but by the end of the Second Vatican Council, the popularity of the sacrament plummeted. While this decline is often noted by historians, theologians, priests, and laity alike - all eager to provide possible explanations - little attention has been paid to another dramatic shift. Coincident with the decreasing popularity of the sacrament of penance in the United States were changes to non-sacramental penitential practices, including Lenten fasting, Ember Days, and the year-round Friday meat abstinence. American Catholics - sometimes derisively called Fisheaters - had assiduously observed Friday abstinence, regardless of ethnicity or geographic location.

Download or read book T T Clark Companion to the Doctrine of Sin written by Keith L. Johnson and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2016-06-16 with total page 496 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The T&T Clark Companion to the Doctrine of Sin provides a comprehensive treatment of the doctrine of sin. The Companion includes an examination of the biblical and rabbinic accounts of sin, and it provides accounts of sin and its effects offered by key theologians throughout Christian history. It also explores debates surrounding the implications of sin for various doctrines, including God, creation, anthropology, and salvation. The book is comprised of 30 major essays that provide an unparalleled examination of the key texts, figures, and debates relevant to the Christian tradition's discussion of the doctrine of sin. The Companion is unique in that every essay seeks to both appropriate and further stimulate the church's understanding of sin and its implications for the whole of the church's dogmatic tradition. The essays are divided into three sections: (1) Biblical Background; (2) Major Figures and Traditions; and (3) Dogmatic Concerns. The first set of essays explores the biblical and rabbinic accounts of sin to bring out the complexities of the biblical presentation and its implications. The second section discusses the role of the doctrine of sin in the theology of key theologians with a special attention to explaining how the doctrine contributes to an understanding of their overall theology. The final section explores key dogmatic questions and concerns related to the doctrine of sin (e.g. original sin, sin and the question of evil and providence, sin and the freedom of the will).
