The importance of Eckhart in the history of scholastic philosophy is considerable. At that period all the efforts of religious philosophy were directed to widen theology, and to effect reconciliation between reasons and faith. The fundamental idea of Eckhart's philosophy is that of the Absolute or Abstract Unity conceived as the sole real existence. His God is the agnostic of the Neo-Platonist: He is absolutely devoid of attributes.God is incomprehensible, in fact, with regard to our limited intelligence, God is the origin and end of every being.Of the Absolute we have no cognizance but only of phenomena, but by the resolute endeavor to abstract ourselves from time and space, we can, according to Eckhart, at rare moments, attain to the Absolute by virtue of what he calls the spark (Funkelein) of the soul, which comes direct from God? This is really God acting in man, to know God is to be one with God. Within these pages you will discover the life of the man, the issues regarding the myths and the facts.

We would all prefer to maintain some level of control and avoid suffering at all costs. That's one main reason we work out, take vitamins, and check our heart rate -- in hopes of not having to suffer in the future. But the Bible clearly teaches that no one is exempt from suffering and sickness. In Will God Heal Me? the late pastor and author Ron Dunn waded through the misconceptions about human suffering to illuminate the unequivocal love, sovereignty, and goodness of God. This new edition of his acclaimed work introduces his teaching to the next generation that will surely benefit from this biblical insight.
