Divine Love
Author: Jeff Levin
Publisher: Templeton Foundation Press
ISBN: 159947249X
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 289
Book Description
The contributors to Divine Love cover a broad spectrum of world religions, comparing and contrasting approaches among Christians of several denominations, Jews, Buddhists, Muslims, Hindus, and adherents of traditional African religions. Each chapter focuses on the definition and conceptual boundaries of divine love; its expression and experience; its instrumentality and salience; how it can become distorted, and how it has been made manifest or restored by great historic exemplars of altruism, compassion, and unlimited love. The ultimate aim for many of the world’s major faith traditions is to love and be loved by God—to live in connection with the Divine, in union with the Beloved, in reconciliation with the Ultimate. Religious scholars Jeff Levin and Stephen G. Post have termed this connection “divine love.” In their new collection of the same name, they have invited eight of the world’s preeminent religious scholars to share their perspectives on the what, how, and why of divine love. From this diverse gathering of perspectives emerges evidence that to love and to be loved by God, to enter into a mutual and covenantal relationship with the Divine, may well offer solutions to many of the current crises around the world. Only a loving relationship with the Source of being within the context of the great faith and wisdom traditions of the world can fully inform and motivate the acts of love, unity, justice, compassion, kindness, and mercy for all beings that are so desperately required to counter the toxic influences in the world. Contributors: William C. Chittick, Vigen Guroian, Ruben L. F. Habito, William K. Mahony, John S. Mbiti, Jacob Neusner, Clark H. Pinnock, and David Tracy.

A Foreign Correspondent's Search for Her Cultural and Spiritual Identity What began as an assignment from her editor at the Wall Street Journal to investigate "America's hottest new fad," the secrets of sexual ecstasy in Tantra, became a story that would lead reporter Asra Nomani halfway around the world and change forever her life, faith, and self-identity. From a New Age Tantric seminar in Santa Cruz to sitting at the feet of the Dalai Lama in India, from meditation caves in Thailand to crossing the Khyber Pass with Muslim militants and staring down the barrel of an Afghan soldier's AK-47, Nomani's trek unexpectedly climaxes in Pakistan, where she risks great danger in joining the hunt for kidnapped fellow reporter Danny Pearl. She travels the globe in search of this elusive "divine love," but ultimately hers is a journey of self-discovery in which the divine within herself and within all women -- all "tantrikas" -- is revealed.

Logan and Cade decide they must take a stand, and soon their actions draw the attention of the student body, the administration, and the community at large. But not everyone feels as Logan and Cade do--after all, isn't a school debate just a school debate? It's not long before the situation explodes, and acrimony and anger result.

Revelations of Divine Love
Author: Julian of Norwich
Publisher: Ixia Press
ISBN: 0486836088
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 259
Book Description
The fourteenth-century anchorite known as Julian of Norwich offered fervent prayers for a deeper understanding of Christ's passion. The holy woman's petitions were answered with a series of divine revelations that she called "shewings." Her mystic visions revealed Christ's sufferings with extreme intensity, but they also confirmed God's constant love for humanity and infinite capacity for forgiveness. Julian of Norwich's Revelations of Divine Love have had a lasting influence on Christian thought. Written in immediate, compelling terms, her experiences remain among the most original and accessible expressions of medieval mysticism. This edition contains both the short text, which is mainly an account of the shewings and Julian's initial analysis of their meaning, and the long text, completed some 20 years later and offering daringly speculative interpretations.

God's Divine Assignment
Author: Rev. Leon Abbott
Publisher: Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.
ISBN: 164191355X
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 218
Book Description
In the writing of this awesome undertaking, Dr. Leon Abbott takes us behind the dark curtain of God's creation. We are invited into the deeper waters of God where babes desire to go. At the same time, the author believes that in these times of human existence, babes must be taught how to swim in the deeper waters of God's revelation and knowledge. On nothing God stood, and from within himself, creation was birthed; every time, he spoke the phrase "Let it be." When he said, "Let there be light," light appeared. And God said, "Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters." And God said, "Let the waters under the heavens be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear," and it was so. And God said, "Let the earth bring forth grass, herb-yielding seeds, and the fruit-yielding trees, after his kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth," and it was so. And God the Creator said, It was good. After man had become a sinner, man still had some good in him because of God's DNA within him. Man was still good enough for God to give heaven best (Jesus) for man's redemption. For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them (Ephesians 2:10, KJV). The phrase "Let there be" continued until he reached the crown of his creation: man. It is here that God the Creator reaches down and forms man out of the dust of the ground, which he had carried within himself in the spiritual realm. He reaches down again and touch man by breathing into man's nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul. It wasn't long after this that God placed the man he birthed in the Garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it. He commanded the man, saying, "Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat: But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die" (Genesis 2:16""17, KJV). Tell a child or someone what they can't do, and often time they will do what they been instructed not to do. In this writing, the author discusses even the Divine Assignment of Death and how Death came alive from the dead. Death couldn't give life to death; who gave life to the cold hands of death? The author gives us a clear answer as to why man needs Jesus. In the giving of his Divine Assignment, God takes man from the ordinary to the extraordinary. Moses was just an ordinary sheep/animal watcher until God gave him his Divine Assignment. We too, like Moses, are just merely existing until we begin carrying out our Divine Assignment in love for God and mankind. Your Divine Assignment will not only bless you, but it has been ordained by God to be a blessing to others as well. We continue to be blessed by the trees as they give off oxygen, and the sun that gives us light and heat, as they continue to carry out their God-given Divine Assignment. Why couldn't the fallen angels be redeemed by God when they failed in carrying out their Divine Assignment? The answer to this question and more is within this work of Dr. Leon Abbott.

The Scandal of Divine Love
Author: Robert P. Vande Kappelle
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 1532640625
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 204
Book Description
There is no more important topic for inquiry today than the meaning and message of Jesus, for in this quest lies the solution to human discontent and despair. Examining an array of titles for Jesus found in the New Testament, expressions ranging from rabbi and messiah to Wisdom of God, Word of God, and Lord, this study explores why Christology is not simply the study of Jesus Christ but also of the highest and best in us all. Who is Jesus Christ, and what is his significance for today? Was he fully human, the perfect human, God in disguise, or somehow all of these simultaneously? The key is to begin where the first Christians began, with their experience of Jesus, and then to press forward with the development of that understanding in our experience of Christ. While The Scandal of Divine Love is designed for Christian believers (survivors), it embraces skeptics and seekers alike, mindful that within each of us are multiple voices, sometimes affirming, sometimes questioning, occasionally even denying. Whether you consider yourself primarily as skeptic, seeker, or believer, this study encourages you to listen, appreciate, and cultivate each voice. This volume, ideal for individual and group study, will help you discover anew the magnificence of the life and person known to us as Jesus of Nazareth, as guide, exemplar, and Lord.
