Book Description
To him I'm just his little sister's best friend. To me, he's the guy I can never have.I've spent countless nights fantasizing about him, wondering what it would feel like to touch him-to be touched by him. Just the thought of being with Sin, allowing him to corrupt my body any way he wanted was enough to tip me over the edge. But he's the forbidden fruit I'll never be allowed to take a bite of. Even though I'd risk a whole lot just for a tiny taste, I can't risk my lifelong friendship with Maya. I know how to keep my feelings to myself. I've been doing it for years. Only problem is, Sin is back from college and I've seen the way he stares at me. It's different, feral-like I'm the craving he needs to sate.And the thing is...if Sin wants me, Sin will have me.

Sin
Author: Gary A. Anderson
Publisher: Yale University Press
ISBN: 0300154879
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 270
Book Description
What is sin? Is it simply wrongdoing? Why do its effects linger over time? In this sensitive, imaginative, and original work, Gary Anderson shows how changing conceptions of sin and forgiveness lay at the very heart of the biblical tradition. Spanning nearly two thousand years, the book brilliantly demonstrates how sin, once conceived of as a physical burden, becomes, over time, eclipsed by economic metaphors. Transformed from a weight that an individual carried, sin becomes a debt that must be repaid in order to be redeemed in God's eyes. Anderson shows how this ancient Jewish revolution in thought shaped the way the Christian church understood the death and resurrection of Jesus and eventually led to the development of various penitential disciplines, deeds of charity, and even papal indulgences. In so doing it reveals how these changing notions of sin provided a spur for the Protestant Reformation. Broad in scope while still exceptionally attentive to detail, this ambitious and profound book unveils one of the most seismic shifts that occurred in religious belief and practice, deepening our understanding of one of the most fundamental aspects of human experience.

When Did Sin Begin?
Author: Loren Haarsma
Publisher: Baker Academic
ISBN: 1493430696
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 288
Book Description
The question of the "historical Adam" is a flashpoint for many evangelical readers and churches. Science-and-theology scholar Loren Haarsma--who has studied, written, and spoken on science and faith for decades--shows it is possible both to affirm what science tells us about human evolution and to maintain belief in the doctrine of original sin. Haarsma argues that there are several possible ways of harmonizing evolution and original sin, taking seriously both Scripture and science. He presents a range of approaches without privileging one over the others, examining the strengths and challenges of each.
