God's Babies
Author: John McKeown
Publisher: Open Book Publishers
ISBN: 1783740523
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 262
Book Description
The human population's annual total consumption is not sustainable by one planet. This unprecedented situation calls for a reform of religious cultures that promote a large ideal family size. Many observers assume that Christianity is inevitably part of this problem because it promotes "family values" and statistically, in America and elsewhere, has a higher birthrate than nonreligious people. This book explores diverse ideas about human reproduction in the church past and present. It investigates an extreme fringe of U.S. Protestantism, including the Quiverfull movement, that use Old Testament "fruitful" verses to support natalist ideas explicitly promoting higher fecundity. It also challenges the claim by some natalists that Martin Luther in the 16th century advocated similar ideas. This book argues that natalism is inappropriate as a Christian application of Scripture, especially since rich populations’ total footprints are detrimental to biodiversity and to human welfare. It explores the ancient cultural context of the Bible verses quoted by natalists. Challenging the assumption that religion normally promotes fecundity, the book finds surprising exceptions among early Christians (with a special focus on Saint Augustine) since they advocated spiritual fecundity in preference to biological fecundity. Finally the book uses a hermeneutic lens derived from Genesis 1, and prioritising the modern problem of biodiversity, to provide ecological interpretations of the Bible's "fruitful" verses.

Children of Genesis
Author: Ronald Harrill
Publisher: Ronald Harrill Enterprises
ISBN: 9780988308206
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 160
Book Description
For the past 500 years, the identities of powerful ancient black nations have remained hidden among the pages of the Bible's Old Testament. These nations led the ancient world towards civilization, invented writing, erected phenomenal monuments, conducted extensive commercial trade and built dams, reservoirs and canal systems to manage large rivers. Yet, each of these empires' identities was reinterpreted by the modern world for social conveniences. These nations continue to suffer from an identity theft crisis in misleading representations of their people in pictures, movies, paintings, social media and books. "Children of Genesis" takes a wide-angle view of the people, places and events from the Old Testament era by using historical lenses instead of traditional religious filters. This book intends to showcase the ancient black nations for the world to see, study, appreciate and better understand.

The Children's Bible
Author: Charles Foster Kent Henry A. Sherman
Publisher: anboco
ISBN: 3736410131
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 343
Book Description
"The Children's Bible" provides, in simple English, a translation of selections from both the Old and the New Testament. These selections have been made as a result of more than twenty-five years of observation and study. The text is that of the Bible itself, but in the language of the child, so that it may easily be read to the younger children and by those who are older. It is not in words of one syllable, for while the child is reading the Bible he should gradually learn the meaning of new words and idioms. The Bible contains the foundations on which the religious life of the child must be built. The immortal stories and songs of the Old and New Testaments are his richest inheritance from the past. To give him this heritage in language and form that he can understand and enjoy is the duty and privilege of his parents and teachers. It is hoped that "The Children's Bible" will meet the need and the demand, which parents and educators alike have long felt and often expressed, for a simple translation of selections from the Bible most suited to the needs and the interests of the child. It is also believed that after the child has learned to appreciate and love these stories and songs, he will be eager and able to read the Bible as a whole with genuine interest and understanding.
