Hope Reigns - Beyond 2012
Author: Esperanza S. Rey
Publisher: BalboaPress
ISBN: 1452532370
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 149
Book Description
The Real Secret of the End of Time, Ascension Into The 5-Dimension The current events and those in the future do not signify the end of the world nor are they a punishment from God. They do, however, represent the end of time. Most importantly they symbolize the end of the world as we know and understand it. This book provides a message of hope for the dramatic period of darkness that is upon us, and a view into the future as New Terra ascends into the 5-Dimension. It depicts a vision of a world where heaven on earth is a reality. These cycles of time have been announced for centuries in Revelations of the Bible, the Mayan Calendar, and in the oral traditions of most known cultures. While history repeats itself, this is the last age of illusion, which means our evolution into a new level of humanity.

Hope
Author: Christiaan Mostert
Publisher: ATF Press
ISBN: 9781920691202
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 284
Book Description
Our age is not one of great hope; war and terror continue unabated. Despair lies hidden just below the preoccupations of daily life, and is starkly visible at many points in today's world. Directly or indirectly, the contributors to this volume seek to challenge the culture of despair. These authors, theologians and leaders, write about hope: its ground, its shape in the Bible and its expression in Christian life and worship, mission and ministry. The book challenges the church as much as the culture. Do Christians know the ground of their hope? Is the church the bearer of hope? Does its worship sustain hope? The contributors include biblical scholars, historians, systematic and pastoral theologians.

Book of Our Common Prayer
Author: Andii Bowsher
Publisher: Lulu.com
ISBN: 0244414440
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 170
Book Description
Responding to the request "Teach us to pray", Jesus outlined a pattern of prayer with five basic movements of prayer. We call this outline "the Lord's Prayer" and often simply recite it. The five kinds of praying patterned in the Lord's prayer form the basic structure for the body of the prayers in this book. This is a collection of forms for prayer day-by-day. Each day's form has an initial section for reflecting on scripture and then the rest of the form is patterned by the Lord's Prayer with a variety of words and phrases which combine seasonal and biblical themes. Many of the prayers draw directly and indirectly from scripture. They also draw inspiration from Celtic, Anglican, Catholic, Orthodox and other ecumenical sources. These forms of prayer are written so as to be used by groups as well as lone pray-ers. This collection of prayers is also a helpful resource to supplement or enrich other forms of daily prayer.

Book Description
Once the school day was over, I walked to the school's main door, but before I could get to the door someone walked in. He was wearing a black leather jacket over a white shirt and blue jeans. He had blonde hair and striking blue eyes that bore into me. Justin Her world changed overnight... “I know your kind, you lie to protect yourselves.” He said it with a sneer. My kind? Is he insane? Did he mean... “Do you mean you're not human?” I couldn't believe I just said that. This time he was the one furrowing his eyebrows, “Human? You are not human.” What?

Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 498
Book Description
The culmination of Kärkkäinen's multivolume magnum opus This fifth and final volume of Veli-Matti Kärkkäinen's ambitious five-volume systematic theology develops a constructive Christian eschatology and ecclesiology in dialogue with the Christian tradition, with contemporary theology in all its global and contextual diversity, and with other major living faiths—Judaism, Islam, Buddhism, and Hinduism. In Part One of the book Kärkkäinen discusses eschatology in the contexts of world faiths and natural sciences, including physical, cosmological, and neuroscientific theories. In Part Two, on ecclesiology, he adopts a deeply ecumenical approach. His proposal for greater Christian unity includes the various dimensions of the church's missional existence and a robust dialogical witness to other faith communities.

Hope for the Earth
Author: Ernst M. Conradie
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 1597522090
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 369
Book Description
'Hope for the Earth' explores the viability of an eschatological approach to an ecological theology, spirituality, and praxis in the South African context. The basic intuition of such an eschatological approach is that an environmental praxis can only be empowered on the basis of an adequate understanding of Christian hope. Despair in the face of environmental destruction will inevitably lead to a spirit of resignation. Where, then, can a vision of hope that includes hope for the earth be found? The author proposes a Òroad mapÓ for eschatology based on the observation that eschatology has traditionally responded to three aspects of the human predicament, namely 1) the evil effects of sin; 2) the problem of finitude and transience; and 3) the limitations of human power and knowledge in space (Part A). This analysis is used to fathom the depths of despair as a result of environmental destruction (Part B). The Biblical roots and subsequent history of Christian eschatology are discussed briefly (Part C). Recent contributions in Christian eschatology, ecological theology, cosmology, and South African expressions of hope are explored in depth in search of a vision of hope that includes hope for the earth itself (Part D). The eschatological road map is used to develop a vision of hope for the earth on the basis of a theology of life: life amidst death and destruction, life beyond death and eternal life in the presence of God (Part E). Finally the implications of this vision for an ecological ethos, spirituality, and praxis in the South African context are indicated (Part F).
