Psalms 45-100
Author: Abraham Kuruvilla
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 1666751707
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 395
Book Description
This three-volume commentary on the Psalms engages hermeneutics for preaching, employing theological exegesis that enables the preacher to utilize all the psalms in the Psalter to craft effective sermons. It unpacks the crucial link between Scripture and application: the theology of each preaching text/psalm—what the author is doing with what he is saying in each psalm—is explored and explicated. While the primary goal of the commentary is to take the preacher from text to theology, it also provides a sermon outline for each of the preaching units in the Psalms. The unique approach of this work results in a theology-for-preaching commentary that promises to be useful for anyone teaching from the Psalter with an emphasis on application.

Fundamentals of the Faith
Author: Peter Kreeft
Publisher: Ignatius Press
ISBN: 1681491982
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 308
Book Description
Kreeft considers all the fundamental elements of Christianity and Catholicism, explaining, defending and showing their relevance to our life and the world's yearnings. Here is a book to help you understand your faith more fully and to explain it to others more winningly. Like every religion, this faith has three aspects, corresponding to the three parts of the soul and filling the innate needs of all three parts. Kreeft uses these three divisions as the basic outline for his Christian apologetics. First, every religion has some beliefs, whether expressed in creeds or not, something for the intellect to know. Second, every religion has some duty or deed, some practice of program, some moral or ethical code, something for the will to choose. Finally, every religion has some liturgy, some worship, some "church", something for the body and the concrete imagination and the aesthetic sense to work at. Creed, Code and Cult; Words, Works and Worship, are a most useful way of outlining any religious faith, including the Catholic Faith of Christians. "These essays were written for Catholics by a Catholic. But I believe that nearly everything I say here will be found by the orthodox Biblical Protestant reader to be his faith as well: That solid and substantial core that C.S. Lewis called "mere Christianity" Peter Kreeft

God?
Author: C. DeSalvo
Publisher: GOD?
ISBN: 0975430904
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 321
Book Description
This 270-page, paperback book honestly and dispassionately reviews life's most important question. Unlike every other book known to the author, this book considers ALL MAJOR EVIDENCE AND ARGUMENTS, FOR AND AGAINST GOD. It reviews evidence from history, literature, philosophy, religious documents, cosmology, cellular and molecular biology, embryology, genetics, morphology (structure of organisms), phylogeny (evolution), physics, archeology and other subjects. And it does that in clear, simple English without preaching. It examines clues to design by God discovered by science in the creation and operation of the universe, the earth, all life and natural death. It considers tough subjects including miracles, Original Sin, the Trinity, Gods origin and Gods characteristics, plus many other related and vital issues. Finally, it summarizes for the lay-person, those aspects of quantum mechanics, general and special relativity and other sciences that are of particular importance regarding the question of God.Have you been too lazy, or think youre too uneducated, to thoroughly research and study the truth about God? Do you want to avoid ranting, raving and sermons? Do you want just the honest facts laid out clearly and simply? Or do you already lean towards God, but your belief doesnt have a solid scientific foundation? Perhaps you havent the knowledge to defend your beliefs against strong arguments that atheists throw in your face. This book probably explains enough for you to make a decision, to get a good start in your own investigation, to build a strong foundation under your weak beliefs, or to provide you with intellectual ammunition to defend your beliefs.In case the above comments havent made it crystal clear, this books answer to that pesky question: Does God exist? -- is a powerfully-documented Yes.
