Here and Now
Author: Robby Gallaty
Publisher: B&H Publishing Group
ISBN: 1462757871
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 256
Book Description
The Christian life was so much more than just a one-time decision to secure a place in heaven. What if you could experience heaven on earth today? Not flying angels singing on clouds, but the fulfilled, abundant life Jesus promised in the Bible—a life that, regardless of your circumstances or your present context, experiences joy, happiness, and peace that is difficult to encapsulate in human terms. What if heaven was available to us today? Pastor and author Robby Gallaty thinks it is. We have been taught that salvation is getting man out of earth to live in heaven when the Bible teaches that God desires to bring heaven to earth through man. In Here and Now, readers will journey together to uncover the nucleus of Jesus’ messages, which says the opposite. Jesus spoke about the Kingdom of Heaven and the Kingdom of God (both are synonymous as we will see) more than any other topic. No other concept is even close.

Heaven on Earth
Author: R. Alan Streett
Publisher: Harvest House Publishers
ISBN: 0736949143
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 306
Book Description
The future hope of heaven is pulled into the here-and-now in this illuminating description of the kingdom of God. Popular teacher and author R. Alan Streett exposes half-truths about the kingdom that many believers have unwittingly accepted. He contrasts these with the testimony of Scripture: Jesus inaugurated the kingdom of God on the earth—it has already begun. As ambassadors of the kingdom, we are to fulfill our responsibilities and enjoy its benefits here and now. Salvation does not culminate with the soul escaping the body and living forever in heaven. Our bodies will eventually be transformed, and we will live with God on a restored earth. The church is like an embassy of heaven in a foreign country. In their life together, believers demonstrate kingdom realities to the world. Readers will find hope and direction in this fresh presentation of the historic teaching on the kingdom.

Heaven and Hell
Author: Bart D. Ehrman
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1501136747
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 352
Book Description
Over half of Americans believe in a literal heaven, in a literal hell. Most people who hold these beliefs are Christian and assume they are the age-old teachings of the Bible. Ehrman shows that eternal rewards and punishments are found nowhere in the Old Testament, and are not what Jesus or his disciples taught. He recounts the long history of the afterlife, ranging from The Epic of Gilgamesh up to the writings of Augustine, focusing especially on the teachings of Jesus and his early followers. Ehrman shows that competing views were intimately connected with the social, cultural, and historical worlds out of which they emerged. -- adapted from jacket

God, The Here, and the Hereafter
Author: Norman Talsoe
Publisher:
ISBN:

Languages : en
Pages : 206
Book Description
This is the time of Christ's return. The book's object is to teach the readers what they must do to become Heaven-ready. The presented narrative will walk the reader through Daniels seven-year Timeline including the emerging Antichrist, False Prophet, and the final battle between Satan and Him at Armageddon At the time, I was an 80-year-old retired Christian engineer who had two visions, two years apart, warning that Christ would return within our children's lifetime. One of the visions asked me to write a book with the title: GOD, the HERE, and the HEREAFTER to describe the end times. I received a realistic vision, asking me to write a book with the given title: "God," the "Here," and the "Hereafter," and the book would help evangelize the world in the end-times; The "Contentious" Promised Land, The Canaanites were so sinful in our Father's eyes that they believed there was nothing they could not do; Daniel 9:27 's Antichrist is the proverbial wolf in sheep's clothing. The wolf disguises himself as a sheep by wearing a slaughtered coat and enters the flock to capture a meal: the Antichrist in search of souls appropriately fits the bill. The correct rapture-tribulation timeline was as important as the ten commandments. If not correctly interpreted, His followers would not understand what is ahead in the final days. Daniel's 9:27 Timeline noted that two consecutive 3.5-year periods comprise the seven years. The first 3.5 years is the Wrath of the Lamb, where Jesus opens the (Revelation 6) Seals describing those judgments. The second 3.5-year period is the Wrath of God, the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light. It cannot be a simultaneous eclipse: that would be impossible; The interpretation of a seven-year peace covenant shows it will include all humanity: no exception, no pre-trib or post-trib.

How Far Is Heaven?
Author: Ronnie McBrayer
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 1621897079
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 128
Book Description
In How Far is Heaven? Ronnie McBrayer explores the "kingdom parables of Jesus" and finds in them an urgent challenge for Christians to reassess the gospel they believe and the role their professed faith plays in the world today. He argues that the gospel cannot be reduced to apocalyptical escapism, whereby the true believers will one day be rescued from the sufferings of planet Earth; nor can faith be used as a type of benefits program, providing the individual with the privileged comfort of membership. Instead, the gospel audaciously enters the sufferings of this present world with transforming love, as Jesus can never be locked away "in our hearts." He, his message, and his followers break defiantly free to renew and reshape not only tomorrow, but also the here and now. Thus, the gospel according to Jesus is not just about a harp-playing, cloud-riding, pie-in-the-sky heaven. It is holistic, all-encompassing, redeeming deliverance for people today, not tomorrow. And the follower of Jesus is called to live out the active, participating presence of Christ in the world of now--right here where we live, work, love, and serve--because heaven is far closer than we think.
