DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis wide-ranging book is an intellectual history of how informed readers read their Bibles over the past four hundred years, from the first translations in the sixteenth century to the emergence of fundamentalism in the twentieth century. In an astonishing display of erudition, David Katz recreates the response of readers from different eras by examining the horizon of expectations that provided the lens through which they read. In the Renaissance, says Katz, learned men rushed to apply the tools of textual analysis to the Testaments, fully confident that God's Word would open up and reveal shades of further truth. During the English Civil War, there was a symbiotic relationship between politics and religion, as the practical application of the biblical message was hammered out. Science - Newtonian and Darwinian, as well as the emerging disciplines of anthropology, archaeology, and geology - also had a great impact on how the Bible was received. The rise of the novel and the development of a concept of authorial copyright were other factors that altered readers' experience. Katz discusses all of these and more, concluding with the growth of fundamentalism in America, which broug

DOWNLOAD EBOOKIf you are a Christian, you will have to wonder at the information provided in this book by God through his messenger, which will not be found in any other publication. The doctrines and the very foundation of the Christian Church are challenged by God himself, and the sacraments are questioned, as well as many other long-held Christian beliefs. Nevertheless, it does give the open-minded reader new insights into Christianity and religion that have not been written down or expressed before, and in it God, informs us of why we were born, the reason why we are here on earth and what is in store for us once we depart from this world. It will give you, the reader, firsthand knowledge of what to expect and what you will be doing after you arrive in the spirit world. Many of you who do not believe in life after death or reincarnation will be challenged in your beliefs and find that yes, indeed, you have lived many times before. You will also find that God provides us with personal guidance through departed relatives and friends that are in spirit as well as providing help from a range of angelic helpers of all types. There are also people on earth who are able to communicate freely and on a personal basis with all those in spirit and the angelic world. These people are spiritual messengers and are not to be confused with spiritualists, psychics, or mediums who play a different role and may hold different beliefs altogether.
Farewell to God

DOWNLOAD EBOOKFor more than twenty years, Charles Templeton was a major figure in the church in Canada and the United States. During the 1950s, he and Billy Graham were the two most successful exponents of mass evangelism in North America. Templeton spoke nightly to stadium crowds of up to thirty thousand people. However, increasing doubts about the validity of the Old Testament and the teachings of the Christian church finally brought about a crisis in his faith and in 1957 he resigned from the ministry. In Farewell to God, Templeton speaks out about his reasons for the abandonment of his faith. In straightforward language, Templeton deals with such subjects as the Creation fable, racial prejudice in the Bible, the identity of Jesus of Nazareth, Jesus’ alienation from his family, the second-class status of women in the church, the mystery of evil, the illusion that prayer works, why there is suffering and death, and the loss of faith in God. He concludes with a positive personal statement: “I Believe.”

DOWNLOAD EBOOKChrist's seven last words from the cross have long been a source of reflection, challenge, and soul-searching. These simple statements contain the full range of human emotions and divine self-revelation: grief, compassion, despair, forgiveness, physical need, the promise of redemption. In many ways they embody the core of the gospel. In this brief book one of today's most noted churchpersons and preachers confronts the reader with the seven last words's claim on her or his life. Written with the clarity, depth, and insight that are Will Willimon's trademark, this book offers afresh the challenge and grace of the message of the Crucified One.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKWho of us can possibly imagine the excruciating pain of being crucified? But further, who would imagine that in the midst of this ghastly punishment that brings on unrelenting headaches and mental disorientation, a crucified man would actually give thought to the needs of others? This book explores in detail the nature of crucifixion and then invites the reader to listen in stunned silence to the amazing seven sayings of Jesus of Nazareth while hanging on the cross, as he focuses his attention on others in the first three sayings, and only then on his own distressing situation. His last four sayings give expression to his utter spiritual and physical anguish and conclude with a cry of victory and then a cry in which he commits himself to God.
