The Storm-God in the Ancient Near East
Author: Alberto R. W. Green
Publisher: Penn State Press
ISBN: 1575065371
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 383
Book Description
In this comprehensive study of a common deity found in the ancient Near East as well as many other cultures, Green brings together evidence from the worlds of myth, iconography, and literature in an attempt to arrive at a new synthesis regarding the place of the Storm-god. He finds that the Storm-god was the force primarily responsible for three major areas of human concern: (1) religious power because he was the ever-dominant environmental force upon which peoples depended for their very lives; (2) centralized political power; and (3) continuously evolving sociocultural processes, which typically were projected through the Storm-god’s attendants. Green traces these motifs through the Mesopotamian, Anatolian, Syrian, and Levantine regions; with regard to the latter, he argues that Yahweh of the Bible can be identified as a storm-god, though certain unique characteristics came to be associated with him: he was the Creator of all that is created and the self-existing god who needs no other.

The Other Side of Heaven
Author: John H. Groberg
Publisher: Bookcraft, Incorporated
ISBN: 9781570087899
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 324
Book Description
This first-person account tells the fascinating story of the three years Elder Groberg spent on the islands in the South Pacific amidst a kindly people who had a deep faith in God, a faith that provides the backdrop for Elder Groberg's accounts of miraculous healings, protective warnings, and perilous voyages; for such stories as: The emergancy night voyage on a turbulent sea, and the anxious search for the only guiding light into the destination harbor. The boy whose apparently lifeless body was handed to the missionaries with the words, "Here, make him well again you have the power." The storm that overturned the boat, throwing missionaries into the raging sea. The hurricane that hit the little island. The hunger when the usual supply boat failed to show up. And much, much more. This remarkable book paints a vivid picture of missionary life in a society geared to "a different way of thinking."

My Descent Into Death
Author: Howard Storm
Publisher: Harmony
ISBN: 0385513763
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 162
Book Description
Not since Betty Eadie’s Embraced by the Light has a personal account of a Near-Death Experience (NDE) been so utterly different from most others—or nearly as compelling. "This is a book you devour from cover to cover, and pass on to others. This is a book you will quote in your daily conversation. Storm was meant to write it and we were meant to read it." —from the foreword by Anne Rice In the thirty years since Raymond Moody’s Life After Life appeared, a familiar pattern of NDEs has emerged: suddenly floating over one’s own body, usually in a hospital setting, then a sudden hurtling through a tunnel of light toward a presence of love. Not so in Howard Storm’s case. Storm, an avowed atheist, was awaiting emergency surgery when he realized that he was at death’s door. Storm found himself out of his own body, looking down on the hospital room scene below. Next, rather than going “toward the light,” he found himself being torturously dragged to excruciating realms of darkness and death, where he was physically assaulted by monstrous beings of evil. His description of his pure terror and torture is unnerving in its utter originality and convincing detail. Finally, drawn away from death and transported to the realm of heaven, Storm met angelic beings as well as the God of Creation. In this fascinating account, Storm tells of his “life review,” his conversation with God, even answers to age-old questions such as why the Holocaust was allowed to take place. Storm was sent back to his body with a new knowledge of the purpose of life here on earth. This book is his message of hope.

Through the Storm
Author: Tony Cooke
Publisher: Harrison House
ISBN: 9781606837450
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
In this new book by Tony Cooke, he outlines three different storms in the Bible, why they came and how they got through. Jonahs storm, the Disciples storm and Pauls storm. Jonahs storm came in the midst of disobedience and he got out of his storm through repentance and consecration to do the will of God. Because he was delivered from his storm, Jonah made it to Ninevah and delivered Gods message and the people were spared. In the disciples storm, it came in the midst of perfect obedience. They got out of their storm when spiritual authority was exercised and the command of faith was spoken. The disciples brought Jesus to the other side and a demoniac was set free. The third storm outlined was Pauls storm and his came through the disobedience of others. He got out of his storm through perseverance and enduring faith. Paul made it to Rome and the gospel was presented to Cesar. No matter what kind of storm you are going through in life, you can persevere, survive and overcome and lead out the plan God has for you.

Taking Heaven by Storm
Author: John H. Wigger
Publisher: University of Illinois Press
ISBN: 9780252069949
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 292
Book Description
In 1770 there were fewer than 1,000 Methodists in America. Fifty years later, the church counted more than 250,000 adherents. Identifying Methodism as America's most significant large-scale popular religious movement of the antebellum period, John H. Wigger reveals what made Methodism so attractive to post-revolutionary America. Taking Heaven by Storm shows how Methodism fed into popular religious enthusiasm as well as the social and economic ambitions of the "middling people on the make"--skilled artisans, shopkeepers, small planters, petty merchants--who constituted its core. Wigger describes how the movement expanded its reach and fostered communal intimacy and "intemperate zeal" by means of an efficient system of itinerant and local preachers, class meetings, love feasts, quarterly meetings, and camp meetings. He also examines the important role of African Americans and women in early American Methodism and explains how the movement's willingness to accept impressions, dreams, and visions as evidence of the work and call of God circumvented conventional assumptions about education, social standing, gender, and race. A pivotal text on the role of religion in American life, Taking Heaven by Storm shows how the enthusiastic, egalitarian, entrepreneurial, lay-oriented spirit of early American Methodism continues to shape popular religion today.
