Mercy in the City
Author: Kerry Weber
Publisher: Loyola Press
ISBN: 0829438939
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 143
Book Description
When Jesus asked us to feed the hungry, give drink to the thirsty, and visit the imprisoned, he didn’t mean it literally, right? Kerry Weber, a modern, young, single woman in New York City sets out to see if she can practice the Corporal Works of Mercy in an authentic, personal, meaningful manner while maintaining a full, robust, regular life. Weber, a lay Catholic, explores the Works of Mercy in the real world, with a gut-level honesty and transparency that people of urban, country, and suburban locales alike can relate to. Mercy in the City is for anyone who is struggling to live in a meaningful, merciful way amid the pressures of “real life.” For those who feel they are already overscheduled and too busy, for those who assume that they are not “religious enough” to practice the Works of Mercy, for those who worry that they are alone in their efforts to live an authentic life, Mercy in the City proves that by living as people for others, we learn to connect as people of faith.

The Triumph of Mercy
Author: Mohammed Rustom
Publisher: State University of New York Press
ISBN: 1438443420
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 258
Book Description
Winner of the 21st International Book of the Year Prize in Iran This book investigates the convergence of philosophy, scriptural exegesis, and mysticism in the thought of the celebrated Islamic philosopher Mullā Ṣadrā (d. 1050/1640). Through a careful presentation of the theoretical and practical dimensions of Ṣadrā's Qur'ānic hermeneutics, Mohammed Rustom highlights the manner in which Ṣadrā offers a penetrating metaphysical commentary upon the Fātiḥa, the chapter of the Qur'ān that occupies central importance in Muslim daily life. Engaging such medieval intellectual giants as Fakhr al-Dīn al-Rāzī (d. 606/1210) and Ibn 'Arabī (d. 638/1240) on the one hand, and the wider disciplines of philosophy, theology, Sufism, and Qur'ānic exegesis on the other, Ṣadrā's commentary upon the Fātiḥa provides him with the opportunity to modify and recast many of his philosophical positions within a scripture-based framework. He thereby reveals himself to be a profound religious thinker who, among other things, argues for the salvation of all human beings in the afterlife.

Book Description
God Almighty has given us the only truth in his Holy Scriptures. The Bible is the Word of God Almighty which has all knowledge contained within it. It contains all the means to any end. It has power within its self. The Bible is the only book where God Almighty himself has placed his hands and literally written therein. Beware and understand that once read and understood the word of God Almighty holds each of us accountable from that point of understanding. We know that there is a line drawn in the sands of eternity and whether we know it or not or whether we believe it or not, we stand on one side or the other. We are all on the side of truth or we are on the side of untruth. Chose the truth: we must choose the truth. We know that there is no second chance when the end comes. And it will come. God Almighty has said it and has set the end of eternity present.
