Final Atonement, The
Author: Chinedu Daniel Obasi
Publisher: TEACH Services, Inc.
ISBN: 1479609153
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 142
Book Description
Those who read The Final Atonement will quickly find the tone of enthusiasm positively contagious. Chinedu Daniel Obasi dove into forging this volume with the eager acknowledgment that the sanctuary message is the heartbeat of Adventism’s theology and mission. God, in His infinite wisdom, crafted an intricate yet accessible object lesson through which any genuine seeker can understand what He wants and needs to do to liberate humanity from the bondage of sin. The author vigorously encourages his readers to make this grand, divine theme the constant focus of their study. Obasi leaves few stones unturned as he examines, in significant detail, the key features and elements of the earthly tabernacle and its associated rituals. He saturated his tome with hundreds of Bible verses as he sought to verify how all these elements—the articles of furniture, variety of offerings, activities of the priests, etc.—point to Jesus Christ’s work to cleanse us from iniquity and restore us to righteousness. The story he tells toward the end will stir emotions in even the most stoic heart. Please don’t shrug off the opportunity to more deeply investigate the Lord’s quest to achieve at-one-ment with His errant children.

The Great Controversy Between Christ and Satan: From the Destruction of Jersualem to the End of the Controversy
Author: Ellen G. White
Publisher: Yesterday's World Publishing

Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 100
Book Description
"The Lord has shown me that Satan was once an honored angel in heaven, next to Jesus Christ. His countenance was mild, expressive of happiness like the other angels. His forehead was high and broad, and showed great intelligence. His form was perfect. He had noble, majestic bearing. And I saw that when God said to his Son, Let us make man in our image, Satan was jealous of Jesus. He wished to be consulted concerning the formation of man. He was filled with envy, jealousy and hatred. He wished to be the highest in heaven, next to God, and receive the highest honors. Until this time all heaven was in order, harmony and perfect subjection to the government of God."-Ellen G White

Out of Adventism
Author: Jerry A. Gladson
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 1532631251
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 318
Book Description
From its humble beginnings in the nineteenth century, Seventh-day Adventism has remarkably grown to become one of America's largest, home-grown faiths, numbering nearly nineteen million members worldwide. Yet Adventism harbors dark secrets within its history. This is the true story of how one Adventist pastor, and university and seminary professor discovered these dark secrets and learned through painful, personal experience that neither the denomination nor its doctrine could be trusted. As his odyssey takes him from pastoral assignments in rural and urban congregations and finally into teaching religion at an Adventist university, he suddenly finds himself caught up in the maelstrom of a church's greatest theological crisis. For him, the denomination's theology and practice agonizingly unravel, forcing him to choose between loyalty to his church, his vocation, and his personal integrity. Rich in anecdotes and personal experiences, Out of Adventism guides readers interested in religious history, cults, and sects through the ins and outs of a religious community in crisis. Along the way, the reader not only gets an insider's view of Adventism, but also discovers a careful critique of the peculiar teachings of Seventh-day Adventism.

The End of Memory
Author: Miroslav Volf
Publisher: Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing
ISBN: 1467462020
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 331
Book Description
Winner of the Christianity Today Book Award in Christianity and Culture How should we remember atrocities? Should we ever forgive abusers? Can we not hope for final reconciliation, even if it means redeemed victims and perpetrators spending eternity together? We live in an age that insists that past wrongs—genocides, terrorist attacks, bald personal injustices—should never be forgotten. But Miroslav Volf here proposes the radical idea that letting go of such memories—after a certain point and under certain conditions—may actually be a gift of grace we should embrace. Volf’s personal stories of persecution and interrogation frame his search for theological resources to make memories a wellspring of healing rather than a source of deepening pain and animosity. Controversial, thoughtful, and incisively reasoned, The End of Memory begins a conversation that we avoid to our great detriment. This second edition includes an appendix on the memories of perpetrators as well as victims, a response to critics, and a James K. A. Smith interview with Volf about the nature and function of memory in the Christian life.
