The Revelation of Saint John an Open Book
Author: Irving C. Tomlinson

Languages : en
Pages : 288
Book Description
Irving Tomlinson wrote, "The place which Mary Baker Eddy, the Discoverer and Founder of Christian Science, gives to the Revelation of St. John is the place which every Christian should give to this book of the Bible." This precieved importance fueled the desire to republish The Revelation of Saint John An Open Book. The Open Book was one of several invaluable resources for understanding this particular canonical writing that so many Bible students have found to be mysterious. After its publication in 1922, and revision in 1935, the Open Book was widely studied by thousands of earnest Christians as well as Christian Scientists who endorsed and appreĀ¬ciated the metaphysical and spiritual illuminations on the Book of Revelation provided by this ground breaking work. Our goal is to reintroduce this beautifully crafted guide for understanding Revelation, and its illumination by the writings of Mary Baker Eddy, to the contemporary generation of Christians. Mary Baker Eddy makes clear that all Christians and Christian Scientists must discern spiritually the ideas for which Christ Jesus toiled. She referred to these ideas, which he conveyed to Saint John in the Apocalypse, as being "spiritually indispensable" to fulfilling his mission for all mankind. Christian Science as presented to the world in the Christian Science textbook Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures is in perfect alignment with the Bible and its prophecies. The correlation is astounding and provides convincing evidence that there is a correct path to spiritual understanding and demonstration. For this reason many today believe that Christian Science fulfills the prophetic requirements to be the final revelation as established in the Revelation of Saint John.

Book Description
This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1922 edition. Excerpt: ... note in The Revelation of St. John, An Open Book, the typography, punctuation, and also the use of quotations from the Bible follow Mrs. Eddy's scientific practice in quoting Scripture. (Luke 4:18; Science and Health xi:19-21.) All terms (synonyms) for Deity are capitalized. (I John 4:18; Science and Health 410:18-20.) Personal pronouns referring to Deity are capitalized. (Science and Health 516:24.) The titles for Christ Jesus also are capitalized. (Science and Health p. 499.) In parts ii and iii, references from the Bible and from Mrs. Eddy's writings are offered in connection with the words of Revelation. The number of them in any instance does not exceed four, therefore they are not exhaustive. In the order of references, the Bible is followed by Science and Health, then Mrs. Eddy's other writings. When there is a cross reference in Revelation it is given last. The line number in the reference is in harmony with the Concordances to Mrs. Eddy's writings. The numbers indicating page and line refer to the beginning of the explanatory citation. When a reference runs into a new paragraph on the following page the last line is indicated, e.g., Science and Health 111:26-15. The abbreviation n.p. for next page is used where it is needed. An asterisk indicates that use of the index will guide the student to further light on that subject in The Revelation of St. John, An Open Book. It is hoped that the citations will help the student to a clearer understanding of the Apocalypse. part I the text of the revelation of st. john printed in accord wi

Revelations
Author: Elaine Pagels
Publisher: Penguin
ISBN: 110157707X
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 253
Book Description
A startling exploration of the history of the most controversial book of the Bible, by the bestselling author of Beyond Belief. Through the bestselling books of Elaine Pagels, thousands of readers have come to know and treasure the suppressed biblical texts known as the Gnostic Gospels. As one of the world's foremost religion scholars, she has been a pioneer in interpreting these books and illuminating their place in the early history of Christianity. Her new book, however, tackles a text that is firmly, dramatically within the New Testament canon: The Book of Revelation, the surreal apocalyptic vision of the end of the world . . . or is it? In this startling and timely book, Pagels returns The Book of Revelation to its historical origin, written as its author John of Patmos took aim at the Roman Empire after what is now known as "the Jewish War," in 66 CE. Militant Jews in Jerusalem, fired with religious fervor, waged an all-out war against Rome's occupation of Judea and their defeat resulted in the desecration of Jerusalem and its Great Temple. Pagels persuasively interprets Revelation as a scathing attack on the decadence of Rome. Soon after, however, a new sect known as "Christians" seized on John's text as a weapon against heresy and infidels of all kinds-Jews, even Christians who dissented from their increasingly rigid doctrines and hierarchies. In a time when global religious violence surges, Revelations explores how often those in power throughout history have sought to force "God's enemies" to submit or be killed. It is sure to appeal to Pagels's committed readers and bring her a whole new audience who want to understand the roots of dissent, violence, and division in the world's religions, and to appreciate the lasting appeal of this extraordinary text.
