Book Description
This collection of 16 articles represents a selection of the papers delivered in the course of a seminar (1995-1996) at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton and its concluding joint symposium held at the Institute and Princeton University. Wide-ranging in scope, the volume covers messianic expectations from biblical times up to modern and contemporaneous adaptations, whereby the focus lies on the messianic concept within Judaism: diversity and variety of messianic expectations in antiquity; messianic movements at the time of the Crusades and around the fifth millennium (1240); the 'Pseudo'-Messiah Sabbatai Avi in the early modern period; the philosophers Hermann Cohen, Franz Rosenzweig and Walter Benjamin with respect to their thinking about messianism as well as the Lubavitch movement. Also included are investigations on pagan Graeco-Roman writings and messianic strands in the medieval and baroque Christian context. The section on the modern period contains contributions dealing with the Ahmaddiyya movement in India, messianic currents in the socio-political culture of the Weimar Republic as well as certain messianic aspects in the very recent so-called Branch Davidian community in Waco, Texas. The broad spectrum of stimulating analyses provides a fresh re-evaluation of an apparently timeless phenomenon.

A Message for the Millennium
Author: K. Martin-Kuri
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780345395221
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 274
Book Description
"As we prepare ourselves for the next century, we will either expand our freedom in such a way that we can cooperate with heavenly thought or we will lose our identities by becoming automatic response mechanisms for the rebellious forces opposing God." --K. Martin-Kuri K. Martin-Kuri has a special connection to the realms of heaven. Now, in A Message for the Millennium, she is compelled to remind us that we are living in troubled times, and that we are being called to make a critical choice. Neglect of our children, political and personal terrorism, random and calculated violence, addictions, deadly new diseases, and other evils have brought us to the edge of the abyss. As a new millennium approaches, she warns, we must either gather ourselves to soar into a better future or stumble and fall to the depths. In A Message for the Millennium, Martin-Kuri translates into actual living practices the things we can do to avoid disaster. She illumines the path of transformation that can allow our guardian angels to work more effectively in our lives and lead to change on a personal and cosmic level. Every time we think a negative thought or commit an act of jealousy, greed, or hatred, we are holding the angels at bay. The angels want to help us, but they are powerless, except in extreme cases, if we do not create an atmosphere of love and kindness in which they can intercede on our behalf. When God gave us free will, he gave us the opportunity to determine our fate. Only by hearing the messages from the angels can we come closer to God. Martin-Kuri shares with us special techniques for taming our inner dragons and defusing the powerful negative energies of society. She revealshow, through prayer and helping others, we can help ourselves and save our planet. A Message for the Millennium is a thought-provoking book that asks and answers tough questions. It calls upon us to begin the hard work that can usher in an era of good will. Most important, it tells us what each of us must do in our daily lives. The choice is ours. Time is running out. The angels are calling. Will we hear their message? Will we make the right choice?
